Not to rain on that parade, but there are some pretty inovative companies using AI for the betterment of society as a whole. What we all hear and see in the media is really stupid corporate types of AI use, which ultimately will fail because AI lacks one thing we all possess, and that is feeling. AI lacks the ability to insightfully mix in feeling to convey the output.
Where it's great is where it's all used for calculations similar to how super computers were used.
Raw calculations are not AI. The whole premise is that it will be able to understand/emulate human emotion. Else it's just like the algorithms we've been developing since who knows how long.
AI is data scraping from a landfill of the internet. The only difference is that it's a gonewild version of it. I'm sorry Dave, I'm afraid I can't do that.
Tell me how it needs to be said for someone to feel like it's a human empathetic response but it comes from AI. We aren't there. And as it progresses we will never be.
I'll bet my last dollar that this AI movement for replacing people and jobs is nothing more than the same we have seen in the past with self checkouts, speech to text and the likes of that. It will be uses in areas where data is finite, but human subjective is a different beast.
