This seems to be a very typical fallacy. "AI is just a collection of stuff people made." No. The Internet was that. AI is something that was TRAINED on stuff people made. So are you.
The logical outcome of this fallacy is believing that AI will collapse if it has to train on data it generated. (It won't: a lot of famous AIs were trained this way, including AlphaGo many years ago.)

- calebdre 1mo agoThat’s not at all what the article says and isn’t even what it’s mainly about. It starts by framing AI as a different way of processing data we already have (which is true), and uses that framing to introduce its main point.
- jujube3 28d agoThe article literally says "the new programs mash up work done by human minds." Implying that they are not doing any real work of their own, just "mashing up" work done by humans.
