I wish they'd stop calling it "#AI".

It isn't. Not even close. I went to college to study #AI decades ago.

What they are calling "AI" today is nothing more than "deep database scrubbing".

It *assumes* an answer is correct based simply on the number of results it finds supporting that conclusion.

AI = Artificial Idiocy

And it's not even good at that

@MugsysRapSheet @Lazarou AI has always been a marketing term. What was "machine learning" back when you were probably studying bares little resemblance to Large Language models, but it all get lumped in the same bucket.

Even when criticizing it, we're encouraged to use terms like "hallucinations" that anthropomorphise the systems, instead of using more correct terms like "statistical error".

@jbaggs @MugsysRapSheet @Lazarou It does not at all meet the definition of statistical error, a jargon term in statistics practice. If so we could ask the AI a hundred times and average the results for the correct answer.

@[email protected] @MugsysRapSheet @Lazarou No. that would be the "normalized answer" and not necessarily correct at all. Just "average".

@MugsysRapSheet @Lazarou Garbage in Garbage out is such an old principle in computing and yet it's only now we're really seeing it's effects.

Yep, now I see any app that boasts "powered by AI" I have to assume it's using an LLM and stay away from it.
