There's a term for this, or at least it's a known phenomena in the AI industry for a while. It's how AI becomes transparent after wide adoption. I'm still amazed at video filters that transform your face in real time, and that is now a common feature in so many apps that most people might not consider AI.
- Dylan16807 3y ago> It's how AI becomes transparent after wide adoption. I don't like this framing for video filters. Go back ten years and nobody thought of that kind of visual effect as AI. Then someone made an AI version, and people talked about that for a bit, then they went back to considering the actual effect. This is very different from situations where a task is inherently thought of as an AI task when people are anticipating it.
- proc0 3y agoMaybe not the best example, although I still remember filters became huge around the same time the AI versions started emerging. Video transcripts are another example, or even text translation at this point. These are widely used forms of AI but it's not what most people are talking about when they talk about AI.
- Dylan16807 3y agoI think a large part is because those uses are much more sensory than thinky. And for those sorts of uses they're good at using a huge corpus to clean up the details but straightforward algorithmic methods can get into the same ballpark.
