Eh, AI is a useful term to describe the subset of computer science that encompasses these more advanced processes such as machine learning, computer vision, LLMs, generative etc.
Arguing wether it's "true intelligence" or not is just unproductive and pointless, like getting mad that almond milk isn't really milk.
We've been using the term AI for a very long time now and it's a very generic term that covers a bunch of technologies, like we've been talking about enemies in video games having AI for decades and people don't find the need to correct that
Yeah true, but I'm really proud of the work my team does and very invested in it, so will always come to it's defence when people say AI in general is bad, even if they probably mean genAI
Due to the nature of it we aim to minimise false negatives rather than false positives, but our current version gives a correct negative around 98.6% of the time a correct positive around 87.8%
Do you want to save people's lives by diagnosing respiratory diseases months before even the most competent doctors could buy analysing x-rays and CT scans?
Then yes you need AI
AI has it's legitimate uses and just blindly treating like the devil incarnate only hurts the many many valid criticisms of AI.
Nah but for real if some random stranger at a bar overheard me saying I'm single and then came up to me and my friends like that I would be a little creeped out too.
I wouldn't be mean about it, but I definitely wouldn't say yes.
Hold a thumb up at arms length, then another at half way, then start by focusing on the far thumb, then the middle thumb, then your nose and back to the far thumb. Do that 10 times.
The hold your arms out to either side so you thumbs are right on the edge of your vision, then without moving your head look back and forth between either thumb. Then same for up and down.
Fun fact: that's actually the original reason we use rings to propose!
