| All of that sounds like the boring low-hanging life fruit that gets trotted out in videos by companies like Apple and Google as being "revolutionary." It's boring. It's staged. It's the easy stuff. It's well-off 20-somethings solving non-problems for other well-off 20-somethings. Wake me up when I can say things like… Hey, Google, are my custom license plates ready for pick up at the tax office? Hey, Siri, ask my doctor to refill this medicine. Hey, Alexa, how many charging stations are broken at the gas station on 16th street? Hey, Google, why is this plant dying? Hey, Siri, why are there so many people in my neighborhood today? Hey, Alexa, did anything ever get done about that story in the newspaper from a couple of years ago about the Chinese slave labor being used to grow pot on illegal farms on the Navajo reservation? "AI" just doesn't have access to the information required to do anything interesting or useful. And because so much of its information comes from the web, which is already so polluted on certain subject (gardening, travel) as to be useless, the AI becomes useless. |
