And yet, China is using AI.
…I… don’t know what to think about that.
…I really don’t.
Because it seems that AI is just a scam.
It may “exist” but what it can do is a scam.
Maybe China thinks we have to use it just to “keep up” with the Western powers, but I dunno.
Anyway, interesting discussion with Adam Conover and Ed Zitron. It’s long, but you can listen to it while doing other things. And the comments are interesting too, but then again, there are also trolls in the comments as well (AI supporters here and there).
Frankly, though? I oppose AI. I’m anti-AI. I’m anti-AI in China and anti-AI in America and anti-AI in the whole damn planet.
Current LLMs have access to much more information than even the best teacher can hope to remember. I already know high school chemistry teachers who are using Perplexity (LLM-enhanced search engine) to plan lesson plans because Perplexity is able to search up all the latest on a topic.
Obviously, a teacher still needs to be in the loop somewhere to ensure a bar of quality on the lesson plan, but there’s no reason why AI can’t just be an enhanced search engine that makes their planning easier, and can help to prevent students from being taught outdated information. I bet you can remember some fact that you learned in school that ended up being wrong later.
For example, the tongue zone taste map you may have seen in anatomy class is completely wrong. In fact, each taste bud is able to sample all the tastes with variations between each taste bud.
Good points
