Nobody asked me but I'll say Artificial Intelligence is largely bunkum. Automatically Generated by (Somewhat) Intelligently Applied Algorithms, I might accept.
People are told to fact-check the generated content. Usually the people are asking in the first place because they don't know what the facts are. And if something in the content is known to be incorrect, how easy is it to remove that from the source. The danger is that the more it generates, the more it becomes self-affirming. People are being used as guinea pigs and beta testers, and the tech companies are playing fast and loose. In the case of automation in cars, playing fast and loose with peoples' lives. I really do NOT want my car to pull the steering wheel in my hands and turn me into the path of oncoming traffic because it thinks the parked (and empty) car I'm passing at the roadside might be suddenly going to teleport sideways into a collision.
