When hammers were invented, people were like, “Cool! So much easier and faster than screwing! And even cheaper!”
And they threw away their screwdrivers and happily hammered their screws in, telling each other how much better things had become.
This is a story about AI.
If you’re at the WTF stages from reading this, you should know that this saying applies: If all you have is a hammer, then every problem looks like a nail.
The author appears to be attempting to draw a parallel with AI, but it seems somewhat lost in translation.
Mind you, AI, or as I like to call it, Assumed Intelligence, is prone to uttering perfectly sounding gibberish which in the industry is known as Hallucinations.
Yet another thing already perfected by humans. It’s called “drunken monologuing.” Sounds like words/coherent ideas until one sobers up.
