The first problem is the name. It's NOT artificial intelligence, it's artificial stupidity.
People BOUGHT intelligence but GOT stupidity.
Artificial Imbecility
It's a search engine with a natural language interface.
An unreliable search engine that lies
It obfuctates its sources, so you don't know if the answer to your question is coming from a relevant expert, or the dankest corners of reddit...it all sounds the same after it's been processed by a hundred billion GPUs!
This is what I try to explain to people but they just see it as a Google thats always correct
Garbage in, garbage out.
That's from back in the days of PUNCH-CARD computers.
yup, i was looking some terms, or conditions up, it was USING stuff froma blog, and sites that just stole from other sites.
People will accept either intelligence or stupidity. They will pay for a flattering sycophant.
It's frustrating because they used the technical term in a knowingly misleading way.
LLMs are artificial intelligence in the same way that a washing machines load and soil tuning systems are. Which is to say they are intelligent, but so are ants, earthworms, and slime molds. The detect stimuli, and react based on that stimuli.
They market it as though "artificial intelligence" means "super human reasoning", "very smart", or "capable of thought" when it's really a combination of "reacts to stimuli in a meaningful fashion" and "can appear intelligent".
the ceo and csuites did, they hyped all up and was excited for its innovation.
