Are you the asshole? – AI powered answer bot
I study AI and ML, and I don&#x27;t need a bot to tell me what I already know from decades of experience.<p>Furthermore, it&#x27;s because we&#x27;re wasting our time on things like this that I think AI&#x2F;ML is mainly all hype and the threats of it &#x27;taking of the World&#x27; are used mainly to leverage funding into aimless things like these while calling it &#x27;progress.&#x27; It&#x27;s sad and boogeyman business model if this is the only thing it yields as most systems are abysmally overlooked--I come from Supply chain and fintech background which is ripe for disruption, but medical documentation is still on fucking fax machines and could be solved without any AI or ML learning revolution, same goes for banking.<p>If anything AI has been used to needlessly complicate things so far: AI algorthims vetting applications is really a bigger contribution to the labour shortage that is taking place in the US than anyone cares to talk about because so many people are invested in these companies.<p>Relevant to this topic: All the qualities that make a person an &#x27;asshole&#x27; are also what you need to be a semi-decent founder, too. (I speak from experience as both). But, chances are those people already know this and don&#x27;t need this to figure that out, either.
