Where Artificial Intelligence Is Right Now

Naperville, Ankerson, Doc and all:
Here is a review of AI that focuses on it's limits. This even helps human warehouse employees and bricklayets feel confident that humans will be needed:

Robotics and AI are unlikely to completely replace humans due to the irreplaceable value of human intuition, creativity, emotional intelligence, and adaptability in complex, unpredictable situations. While automation will continue to transform industries and handle repetitive tasks, humans will remain essential for tasks requiring nuanced judgment, empathy, innovative thinking, and the management of complex human interactions. Instead of complete replacement, the future will likely see humans and machines working collaboratively, with AI enhancing human capabilities and creating new roles for people who can leverage these tools effectively.

Why Humans Will Remain Essential

Emotional Intelligence and Empathy:
Humans can understand and respond to complex human emotions and nuanced situations in ways that AI cannot replicate. This is crucial in fields like healthcare, customer service, and leadership.
Creativity and Innovation:
While AI can process and remix existing data, it cannot generate truly novel concepts or dream up new ideas from scratch the way humans can.

Intuition and Contextual Understanding:
The human brain excels at understanding context, reading between the lines, and making intuitive leaps based on limited information, a skill that current AI systems cannot fully reproduce.
Adaptability and Dexterity:
Robots struggle with the dexterity and adaptability needed for complex, physical tasks in unpredictable environments, such as construction or intricate repair work.

Skills like negotiation, adaptability, and teamwork are developed through experience and are essential for effective human collaboration, something machines currently lack.

The Future is Collaboration (Augmented Intelligence)
Humans with AI:
Rather than robots replacing humans, the future will involve "humans with AI," where humans leverage AI as a tool to enhance their own productivity and capabilities.
Augmented Intelligence:
This concept involves AI providing decision support by offering information, allowing humans to make more informed and context-aware decisions.

The Limits of Automation
Programmed Systems:
Robots and AI systems are programmed and do not think independently or possess the same level of complexity as the human brain.

Complexity of the Real World:

The real world contains "unknown unknowns" and complexities that AI cannot yet fully grasp or navigate, requiring human intervention and decision-making. "

It turns out Frank Herbert and Gene Roddenberry were right on that.
Even James Cameron had humans beat Sky Net in the end.

Maybe that is what I need, an AI girlfriend to keep me from getting bored and fleeced out of every cent!

Technology is wonderful until it fails, when it fairs, unless you have ability to Improvise, Adapt, and last Overcome, you will find out why Technology is not so wonderful.

Beware. What if it gets an error in programming and becomes a monster computer?

I think we are moving in that direction and there is no stopping it. Every country is vying for AI supremacy.

Simple LLM's are what they call the systems that we have now in AI and they are not that capable. It will not be long and we will have true sentient thinking machines, then what?

At first glance, this might not seem like it has anything to do with AI, but it really does. That lady, while extremely obsessive-compulsive, foresaw something like what is happening now, and has probably been happening since long before AI entered the lexicon of the general public. Whenever technology is newly revealed to the public, it's already crude and obsolete in terms of what is already existing.

She did a good deed. The Internet Archive is great and I have donated to them a few times.

So if this is available to the general public now, you can be certain there are WAY more advanced technologies that can be used to doctor any video footage, and add, remove, or change people and what they said or did, or didn't say or do. So video 'proof' will no longer be proof of anything. And who knows how advanced this type of AI technology has been, and for how long.
