Feel like we’ve got a lot of tech savvy people here seems like a good place to ask. Basically as a dumb guy that reads the news it seems like everyone that lost their mind (and savings) on crypto just pivoted to AI. In addition to that you’ve got all these people invested in AI companies running around with flashlights under their chins like “bro this is so scary how good we made this thing”. Seems like bullshit.

I’ve seen people generating bits of programming with it which seems useful but idk man. Coming from CNC I don’t think I’d just send it with some chatgpt code. Is it all hype? Is there something actually useful under there?

    Sure! It’s pretty neat we can do this at all with just trained information from humans.

    Of course what stinks is people think that AI can think and/or understand what it writes and/or understand the concept behind what its trying to explain or understand itself. It can’t. It js just a really advanced statistics modelling program also predicts the next output well. Just like autocorrect.

      Sucks that the term “AI” caught on because it’s s fairly disingenuous and not reflective of how the tech works. It’s just easier to say and grok for the average person than “machine learning” or “neural network” or LLM
