Do you find the AI features tacked into literally every modern device and application being sold to the general consumer market useful, or do you find a specific niche AI tool meant for specific industry use useful?
Moving goal posts.
Op said Don't use AI, you're saying Don't use AI everywhere.
I think it's pretty clear what type of AI OP was talking about.
I commend you for believing most people know the difference.
Sadly thats not my experience.
I just believe people know what they see, and in this instance they are seeing the garbage AI tools being shoved into their phones and computers that give them "information." They're not really seeing the good stuff, because the good stuff isn't being sold to them.
Its true i do worry about shit ai being plastered within our devices but if you cut through the marketing you see a whole mix of machine learning and ai is used under the hood.
Some of these tools like ms paint auto removing backgrounds. And personal assistant like siri talking more fluently does seem like an improvement.
I have no hopes for winfows rewind but even for that we must admit its not actually available yet. Neither is apple ai.
So we are simply assuming that all of the tools they may put in are bad based on some current stupid ideas that are explored.
When all you have is hype, everything looks like intelligence.
