AI is transforming Google search – the rest of the web is next
I can't be the only one that considers all these AI articles just smoke and mirror puff pieces to prop up a company's value by capitalizing on the hype (hysteria?), can I? I think the first flag is that the journalists don't seem to really understand the technical capabilities or limitations of current ML/AI applications. They accept grandiose claims at face value because there is no way to measure the real potential of AI (which the promise of seems limitless, so anything appears plausible especially coming from a big company like GOOG).I think there are a couple of really overhyped areas right now, AR/AI/ML and IoT/IoE. Now while I don't mind the attention and money being thrown at tech, I can't help but feel we're borrowing more against promises, hopes, and dreams, while simultaneously under-delivering and I think that's going to hurt tech's image and erode investor confidence sooner than later.
