as big as the circle jerk is here against AI, i think it’s on the whole a good thing if we use it for what it’s actually good at: approximating an answer. but once companies start promising things like security that require 100% accuracy they totally lose me. as someone who has worked on recognition systems i will be opting out so fast to things like facial scan at PoS. it’s not AI because it’s not actually intelligent. you can’t reason with it or change its mind without rigorous training. write some shitty code for me to fix? fine. buy a TV with whatever bs contractor bid the lowest for the facial scanning job? gtfo. startup founders, executives, and managers will promise the moon when they’re so far up their own ass they’ve never even seen it.
Definetly! AI is a tool and still needs a human to manage it. It works best when used to augment existing work flows & when used by someone who is able to fine tune what it's doing when necessary.
Even AI security could be helpful to flag things for a human to then look into, but giving it complete authority is going to lead to so many issues.
