Machine learning is a useful technology that can do amazing things. “AI” is the cultural phenomenon of people thinking we created a magical solution to every problem. Machine learning might be able to sometimes query a search engine better, but LLMs will never know anything about the world because that’s not what it was designed for. Machine learning can make workers more productive, but we’re nowhere near the point where it can be a laborer itself. People should lean how the technology actually works so they realize that half of the corporate implementations are a bad idea.
