AI as it sits is a tool that has specific use cases. It is absolutely not intelligence, as it's commonly marketed. It may seem intelligent to the uninformed, but boy howdy is that a mistake.

    It's a sad reflection of our current state when being able to string together coherent sentences is impressive enough to many as to be confused with truth and/or intelligence.

    It wasn't that long ago that it was unfathomable for anything other than humans to be able to do this.

    "Polly want a cracker" has been around since before anyone alive today was born, and that's the same thing as what LLMs are doing in essence (mimicking human speech), but no one was taking advice from parrots.
