You enter some text and a computer spits out complex answers generated on the spot
Right or wrong - doesn’t matter. You typed in a line of text and now your computer is making 3000 word stories, images, even videos based on it
How are you NOT astounded by that? We used to have NONE of this even 4 years ago!
Of course I'm astounded. But being spectacular and being useful are entirely different things.
If you've found nothing useful about AI so far then the problem is likely you
I don't think it's necessarily a problem. And even if you accept that the problem is you, it doesn't exactly provide a "solution".
Because I want correct answers.
