Yeah, AI is not biased at all. Lol.

Those words seem to go in that order appropriately with no real errors. Unless we've forgotten how large language models work.

There is seemingly a mad dash to embrace AI, no matter what for fear of being left behind. It doesn't always make sense.
As an example, last night I visited my local DQ to get a Blizzard, because, well isn't it obvious? Anyway, the voice from the drive thru board was clearly AI.
The funny thing is they tried to make the voice sound like the tone and IQ of the type of worker you'd expect at the DQ drive thru. In this case, it was clearly modeled on the voice of a black woman. When I got to the window, it was a young, white dude working. At least 4 other people working behind the counter...it wasn't busy.
I asked the kid if the AI order taker was helpful in making his job more efficient (because it didn't get me my order any quicker -- and they weren't busy). His response was "Meh, maybe a little. I don’t have to enter the order". What a rousing endorsement.
So, basically they're paying him to basically stand there, take my payment card (which really doesn't need to have a human interaction), and pass me my order. Interesting...and strange. I didn't like it.

Yeah. It's the physical mobility and dexterity that they can't automate yet.
I run some stuff at home, but it's just to categorize and collate things that I would have to sit there for a long time to visually do, when hashes and other digital file inspection techniques will provide "This is 90% similar to this" warnings which let me reduce the amount of collected BS as well as better organize it.
Stuff like how I used to use the burst function a hell of a lot on my DSLR. For things I really didn't need to. I have sets of a hundred images that would have been better recorded as a video. LOL

AI provides mindless sarcasm on tap. I love it for that.
AI frequently gives bad facts, fails to follow a story line, gives different answers to the same question if you tweak the syntax...
...and I cant get it to show me nude 3d pictures of Brooke Shields. For these reasons, I don't love it.
