That's a massive oversimplification. We do have AI. We don't have AGI.
Yeah I guess. I just figured AI would be capable of doing more than feeding already known data back to us. When I was growing up, I was hoping AI would be able to make new conclusions and be wiser than humans.
But maybe we are calling that AGI now.
That would be awesome, but it does already solve problems and give us information we don't have. It is able to extrapolate, which makes it wonderful for reporting type duties, analysis of data, etc.. It's also pretty good at coding. You'll hear a lot of people say it's not, but I think that comes down to their ability to instruct it properly. Since I started using ChatGPT at work my productivity has skyrocketed. I don't have to spend a bunch of time writing the basics of the programs I'm creating, I can outline it with ChatGPT and then edit it for my specific use. I also use it to audit my tone for progressional communication. I have a really bad tendency to sound overly stern with my written communication. For texts and such I fix that with Emojis, but I can't do that at work, so I pass my writing through ChatGPT and ask it to change the tone for me. It does a great job. ChatGPT is progressing at speeds beyond our wildest expectations, so you'll definitely see the kind of functionality you're talking about within your lifetime, probably within the next ten years.
This was written by an AI, wasn't it?
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I'm using it at work too as a devops guy, and it's been helping a lot. If I don't know how a certain syntax should look like, I just ask chat gpt and i get full examples that usually work. It's amazing.
I was learning a bit of go a few days ago and then it was also so much faster to learn by asking chat gpt how to do things in that specific language.
@1984 @Anticorp it’s cause we don’t have true AI yet, just models
We have absolutely nothing similar to the classical definition of intelligence. We have probability calculation based on millions of examples.
