I’ve tried several types of artificial intelligence including Gemini, Microsoft co-pilot, chat GPT. A lot of the times I ask them questions and they get everything wrong. If artificial intelligence doesn’t work why are they trying to make us all use it?

    Yeah, it’s much better at “creative” tasks (generation) than it is at providing accurate data. In general it will always be better at tasks that are “fuzzy”, that is, they don’t have a strict scale of success/failure, but are up to interpretation. They will also be better at tasks where the overall output matters more than the precise details. Generating images, text, etc. is a good fit.

      That sounds about right. I heard that the recommendation from AI to put glue on your pizza was from a joke on Reddit about how to keep cheese from falling off the pizza. So obviously the AI doesn’t know what a good source of information is from a bad source of information. But as you say something that’s fuzzy and doesn’t need to be 100% accurate works pretty well apparently. Also my logic is a little fuzzy once in awhile myself.
