@angusm@mastodon.social But at least everyone knows who to blame if a person makes a mistake, or is 'lazy and dumb'. How do you get satisfaction from AI? Pull out the plug? Anyone who relies on AI gets what they deserve - artificially-generated responses (intelligence doesn't come into it).

@angusm@mastodon.social Good point. They really should say AI makes people lazier and dumber.

@angusm@mastodon.social Ok, so if we go the other way, and invent Artificial Dumbness (some say we're close), would it make us intelligent ?

@angusm@mastodon.social It seriously adds nothing to the conversation, it just makes it faster.

@angusm@mastodon.social It actually could make me look smarter than I am! First I needed to go to a library or actually at minimum have an encyclopedia to look things up. After that came the internet and then the search engines. Then came wikipedia and more online sources. Now algorithms in LLM will explore the untamable sea of information for me. If I can ask the right questions and trust what these mumbling tools will tell me to please me. Which I in fact can verify because all this time I did it myself.
