AI for nearly everything has been very overhyped. Paintings of people have extra fingers and other strange artifacts. Using it for writing prose is hit or miss. Full self driving cars are thwarted by rogue traffic cones.
I think we'll have AI some day, but today it's just not at the level that all the hype claims it is.
- rvz 3y agoThere you go. But even before that 8 years ago, ConvNets, AlexNet, etc were getting all the hype and then came the adversarial images and issues which weren't addressed and then that hype fizzled out very quickly. Now the AI bros here are attempting to sell us their new snake-oil in the form of a stochastic parrot which promises to be the solution to everything. Well, unsurprisingly it is another unexplainable AI black box which still requires the human to check every single output so that it doesn't hallucinate something incorrect, which it does almost all the time with a lack of transparent explainability as to why it hallucinated. So the fact is, it is already overpromising and under-delivering for serious use-cases. Just like FSD (Fools Self Driving) was when that was over-hyped and with little to no Tesla Robo-taxis on the road.
