It isn't AI yet. They have just called it that. It was an illusion.

Now money is telling them the truth.

AI is intelligent like a Hoverboard hovers.

Artificial intelligence is intelligent like artificial grass is grass. That's how the word artificial works. It just means man-made, says nothing about quality.

Careful saying that obvious thing, some people here will climb all the way up your butt about it. 🙄

I still consider it just another meta within chat. Its the next step from having the search summaries. It theoretically will aggregate more relevant links.

theoretically will aggregate more relevant links.

Yep! I've seen real data scientists use LLMs for exactly that, and get great results!

I don't think we will see decent link search as a widespread success for another couple of years, though. Seems like most companies aren't willing to pay data scientists to build their (domain specific) models. Some of the code co-pilot tools are already quite good. But I bet Chevrolet of Watsonville won't get the next level of quality for a bit longer.

Can I just put a comma between "AI" and "Google"?

There is so much more between them ;-)

Is it "AI is hard" or "AI is not the best solution for this"?

It's "LLMs cannot do what the salesmen and CEOs say it can do by it's very nature"

What you mean magic box can't do X, we need to milk it for revenue.

Now that I think about it giving AI rights might save humanity from corporations.

No surprise. LLM is to intelligence what a moped is to an airplane; both have wheels.

I really hate the conflagration between AI and LLMs. We’re seeing a polishing of LLMs and they’re great for mimicking language, but they don’t “know” what they’re saying. We’re still quite a ways off from GenAI and have just started working on more specialized AI. But without some massive leaps in understanding logic and filtering out garbage it’s gonna be a while.
