Did anyone else notice the latest argument from "AI" pushers is along the lines of "But you're questioning experts in the field!"? Classic Appeal to Authority there.

@edwiebe I have some horror stories to tell about techs who made that awful and absolutely incorrect assumption.
The people have their own lives, and many of whom you probably depend on THEIR expertise and TRUST them to do their job, be that driving TTC or grocery clerk or banker or plumber, you EXPECT they are telling the truth and you BELIEVE you have recourse to the courts if they lie.
None of that is true about the IT industry. After 55 years in it, I often wish I had spent my time in an honest job, like pimping, or used-car sales.
#ELIZAEffect was an accident back then, but today it is TOTALLY deliberate.
So, perhaps you meant "People flogging IT technology are, on average, either incredibly stupid, or fantastically sociopathic."
You could run a poll 🤣
In my days we had Dr Sbaitso and it didn't need to boil a lake to reply to your questions!
#ElizaEffect
Have you heard about the Eliza Effect?
This was named after the first AI computer system which was built in the 1960s.
The Eliza effect happens when humans project human traits and abilities on machines and objects, like empathy, emotions etc.
This explains why some humans these days falls in love with ChatGPT or have AI "friends".
The following anekdote about the #Elizaeffect is worthwhile to mention, it happened during testing
“…One day in 1966, in an incident that has since passed into computer science legend, Weizenbaum’s secretary sat down to use ELIZA. The secretary soon asked Weizenbaum to leave the room so that she could have privacy. The thought of needing to be alone to talk to a piece of software—much less one that she had seen her boss create—was astonishing…”
preferred term - "powerful AI"
Indeed. Power requires Intel. Leverage. Extortion … #elizaeffect #posiwid
Users don't want it, it can't be trusted, it gobbles the planet like a demon, and its (poor) performance per terawatt is beginning to plateau, so then why are the managerial non-users so keen to deploy it? What's the real business case?
