"AI can be a great tool for ..."
Dehumanisation?
We are not sure of what we are supposed to do with LLMs beyond Advanced Auto-Complete, but we have engorged the stock value of several companies while we hope for a practical application beyond engorging stock values.
Using Advanced Auto-Complete to somehow help with education might be a good, practical application.
But one thing is clear: if a parent can't help a motivated child write a simple, sincere letter to a person who is training to compete on the WORLD STAGE, it's a sad statement about family and society.
That some corporate executives thought this scenario was appropriate for the Olympics shows that advertising monetisation will dehumanise us if we let it.
- disqard 2y agoI'm sure there were two variants of this ad, and some data-driven A/B testing picked this one. Perhaps the alternative was something like: "Motivated student writes letter to Nobel laureate scientist with the help of AI", or similar. I can't imagine there's mass-scale relatable examples that are easy to come up with right now -- "programmer quickly instantiates test suite for existing codebase rapidly using AI" doesn't quite corroborate the "AI is more important than fire/electricity" hype coming from top leadership.
