    Very true. The best description I heard of an AI output is that it is a hallucination - it just has to look plausible.

    So it is a worry when it is used to detect “cheating” in essays at university, it is horrifying when it could be used to order a drone strike on someone’s house. A lot of people don’t know enough to treat it’s results as, at best, a first pass filtering and just rely on it because it’s a computer and it has the word “intelligence” in there (or similarly stupid reasons).

      I use AI a lot in work because my English grammar is poor. It’s also my first language. I read over everything it gives me to make sure it’s factually correct and edit it to make it sound more human but other than that it does most of the heavy lifting. What used to take about an hour now takes 15 minutes with the right prompt.
