I think there is a deeper point here. I do AI research, I use logic programming, deep learning, and a bunch of other techniques. These things together can produce amazing results, solving problems of which humans could never solve in thousands of years.
However, I don't want black-box AI anywhere near me -- I don't want it deciding who gets into my University, the grades our students get, if I get a morgage or if I committed a crime. While AI can solve many problems, it's not really "thinking", it's just pattern matching and brute force, and (at least at the moment) every AI system is very easy to confuse if you try.
- JKCalhoun 6y agoYou think we're doing something better than pattern matching? That seems to be what I do most of the time. :-)
- CJefferson 6y agoI agree, the problem with AI is that companies seem much happier to say "the computer said so", and leave the answer at that. Except of course when they want to get out of something, at which point they say "Oh, that was just the computer which said that, we didn't mean it".
