So called Artificial Intelligence (AI)

[scottiejohn]

Why is there all this hype about something that does not exist in the real world?

It is nothing but a marketing ploy?

Even the actual phrase "Artificial Intelligence" is an oxymoron!

Get real folks and stop falling for it!

 

AI Isn’t Really Artificial Intelligence – Review Geek

Well knowing the intelligence of some people , it should

not be that difficult to create a smarter machine , Smart

phones been a good example , I mean why do you have

to take a photo of every meal before you eat it , and I am

left wondering do they take another photo ,when it's gone

through them ....????

Totally agree!

There is nothing "smart" about a so called "Smart Phone" nor about many of their users!

[save the frogs]

the machines will be performing tasks that human beings do.

 

and eventually more complex tasks that humans can't do.

 

call it whatever you like.

it's a computer in your pocket.

whatever information you need, you can look it up.

i wouldnt say there is nothing smart about it.

It is only an electronic device.

I vote "Automation" could explain the use of machines doing those and menial tasks, lol

Tens of thousands of people working in help desk lost their job several years ago after simple chat bots were introduced, and now tens of millions helpdesk people will lose their job because current chat bots are complex enough to help an average customer with most of their problems.

And not only basic support jobs are concerned, many programmers will lose their job too, because one programmer with the help of chatbot such as Copilot will do more than three programmers with the help of Google and Stackoverflow.

Today I read an article that a phycologist, who normally tests humans, tested ChatGPT with a standard IQ test. Result? Guess. 155! 

I Gave ChatGPT an IQ Test. Here's What I Discovered - Scientific American

 

Not long ago I saw this video. I would never have thought that would be possible:

 

 

Now I played myself with ChatGPT. I gave it a programming job in plain language. The initial response was already very good. And then I asked ChatGPT to change this and that and some more. Almost all answer were good or very good.

The only difference to having a skilled programmer on the other side was that ChatGPT was faster, and it was not annoyed when I asked deliberately a few stupid questions.

 

Anybody who dares to ignore this should not be surprised if suddenly the world changes around him or her. How did that happen. It happens. And fast!

 

For anybody with some time I recommend this video.

chatbots useless as they cant differentiate nuances of english language  which will always be insurmountable without even shakespearian chat

Skynet WILL go self aware!

Yes. 'Automated Intelligence'. That's all it is.

I don't think you understand how programming works!

And you have fully verified the credential's and methodology of all that was involved?

Of course machines can do a multitude of tasks better (more efficiently?)  but HUMANS have to do the programming!

the computers will teach themselves ... 

maybe humans will still be needed too.

They cannot!

AI already does coding incredibly well and passes bar exams. I think you're naive. This is going to replace perhaps half of the global workforce, maybe more.

It cannot code itself!

It can only use propagation of already inbuilt code or direct real time input!

You're wrong. It can code. And it's early days. So naive!

You sound like someone who incorrectly thinks AI is just pimped up google.

Is that what you do with every article you read or share?

 

I asked ChatGPT about its IQ and it didn't answer that question. Google showed a couple of articles.

If you didn't do it already try ChatGPT. Ask it some complicated questions and read the responses. One or the other is maybe wrong, but in general this thing knows a lot and knows how to write quality programming code. It seems some people gave it the questions from some exams, and it seems to be good in most of them.

It's impressive. And that is just the start...
