Been noodling a lot about AI stuff lately, and just keep SMH about how willing so many people seem to be to trust this technology.

My problem w/ the idea of AI chat bots being asked to do anything consequential is that we seem to want them to be ever-more human, while at the same time expecting them not to make mistakes.

Probably what we really want is for them to also learn from their mistakes. But that requires admitting when you're wrong -- changing your mind, if you will -- and letting others impacted know that you were in the wrong. On some levels, that seems incompatible with what many expect out of AI today.

@briankrebs In its current state, #AI mostly seems useful if you already know what you’re doing but don’t have the cycles to do it all yourself. I used it quite a bit the past couple days to write some really helpful #PowerShell scripts, and while it wasn’t perfect, it was close enough. I liken it to having a consultant for a day.

People need to remember that it’s a copilot at this stage, not autopilot.

@brndnsh @briankrebs That’s a good way to describe it, a consultant for the day.
