I knew I wasn’t interested in A.I. for a while now, but I think I can finally put it into words.

A.I. is supposed to be useful for things I’m not skilled at or knowledgeable about. But since I’m not skilled at or knowledgeable about the thing I’m having A.I. do for me, I have no way of knowing how well A.I. accomplished it for me.

If I want to know that, I have to become skilled at or knowledgeable about the thing I need to do. At this point, why would I have A.I. do it since I know I can trust I’m doing it right?

I don’t have a problem delegating hiring people who are more skilled at or more knowledgeable about something than me because I can hold them accountable if they are faking.

With A.I., it’s on me if I’m duped. What’s the use in that?

Think of AI as a mirror of you: at best, it can only match your skill level and can't be smarter or better. If you're unsure or make mistakes, it will likely repeat them. Like people, it can get stuck on hard problems and without a human to help, it just can't find a solution. So while it's useful, don't fully trust it and always be ready to step in and think for yourself.
