General Discussion

an overhyped geek wet dream (remember when we were told that the Segway scooter was going to revolutionize our cities?) or likely to conclude that we are an invasive species and try to eliminate us. In the latter case, it would do so subtly, so that we would be like the frog in the proverbial pot that has the temperature raised gradually.

Right now, the hype is useful for taking money from fools in the stock market, and is being used to hype products that profess to contain some version of it. I avoid AI like the plague, and I especially love to insult chatbots when a company tells me that they don't care enough to provide real customer service to me.
