Well that's the pitch they want to throw at you. Actual studies disagree.
>Maybe the same thing happens to manufacturing, and we just get rid of craftsmanship, machining, and logistics, and have everybody 3D-print their appliances in a factory-in-a-box they keep at their home, just shipping filament and chips and other raw materials directly to them.
I legitmately think we will hit General AI before we have anything close to this. We simply don't have the resources needed on an individual bases to faciliate everyone being a "factory worker at home".
- Our_Benefactors 1y agoLook at how miserably AI fails at any kind of CAD work and you may reconsider.
- idiotsecant 1y agoThere's no reason to think this will continue to be the case for long.
- ethanwillis 1y agonone? not a single reason at all?
- ahartmetz 1y agoIt seems like current approaches have already reached a plateau. Either something new will work better soon... or there will be another long wait.
- vjvjvjvjghv 1y agoI think AI may actually work really well for CAD. Purely text based prompts won't work. But a mix of touch and AR together with voice input could be extremely productive.
