Why is it "pilfering" when the computer program does it, but "learning" when a human does it?

Why is it "pilfering" when the computer program does it, but "learning" when a human does it?
- exabrial 4y agoBecause those two things are not even equivalent. A human can reason, make decisions, act in best interest, judge context of a situation, apply it to new scenarios, judge emotion, and create a new derivative work. The computer program is literally taking someones work and adding fancy way to search through the other person's work, without adding any value. We need to stop fantasizing these fancy toys are actually any sort of intelligence.
- mindcrime 4y agoWe need to stop fantasizing these fancy toys are actually any sort of intelligence. That strikes me as a rather extraordinary claim. It seems obvious to me that contemporary AI's are "some" sort of intelligence, albeit with open questions around "what kind of intelligence?" and "how intelligent are they?".
