I'm so sceptical of “AI”, that I often don't know where to start engaging in discusssions. I still see most praise for the latest capabilities from people who aren't asking the basic philosophical/cogsci questions that people have literally been asking for many decades.
I'm mostly very worried. Bias, energy consumption and floods of nonsense are very real risks. We should not large scale deploy code/text/image generators without assessing those risks, especially not if we haven't clearly defined problems that would be worth solving given those risks.
@hdv I thought I was the only one on this take, when I realised that everyone is hyping AI. IAt least it is good to know, I‘m not the only one.
