This follows the form, hype, and presentation of so many crypto pitches I've heard.

Crypto didn't do anything.

AI can give anyone the power to make music, art, film, and media without the time, talent, and institutional capital investments.

AI can automate people's jobs and reduce cost structures to accomplishing work and business objectives.

That's the difference, and the evaluation criteria is easily decided by the free market. Did it do a good job? Will it get hired again to repeat similar work? Are more customers adopting it? That's all you need to judge its success or relevancy.


Hi ChatGPT

Until AI can give us a just society where people are fed, clothed, medically treated and housed globally, I'm not tripping over myself calling it the future.

It's just more of the same, just faster and bigger. Sure, that's something, but it doesn't give me much hope by anything it has proven so far.


I enjoy your optimism and excitement, but as Joseph Weizenbaum puts it, this is most certainly the proverbial solution looking for a problem.
