What we need is AI to comment on current events as Rush. There is 30 years worth of data to teach such a system.

My son is in A.I.
He was working on Covid cures when Covid started.
I asked him how much science did you have in college, knowing he was a computer science in undergrad.
He said “1 class of biochemistry. You don’t need to know any science to do this”
I don’t get A.I.

A.I. does amazing things; the problem is, you can’t tell if they are amazing truths, or amazing B.S.
To: SunkenCiv
Wonderful! I work with old texts in por condition occasionally and I could certainly see this being helpful.

"Missing gaps"? Wouldn't "gaps" be enough?
It would be cool if AI could fill in the missing books of Tacitus' Annals.

How do you know you achieve 72% accuracy if you do not know what constitutes 100% accuracy?

They used a lot of texts, many of which had already been figured out the old fashioned human way.

62% is lower than 65%
A 62 is an “F” grade.
I give these idiots and their AI an “F”.
They should all go to Las Vegas and predict the down cards of the who!e table.
It’s a bunch of BS because all the authors are ded.

The 3D non-invasive tech they use now to read the scrolls from Herculaneum, and the alt spectral scans of old ones (I think the Oxyrhynchus Papyri are an example) have really recovered a lot of ancient texts. I wish the Herculaneum stuff were something other than epicurian philosophy. :^)

A lot of people confuse AI with an expert system. This sounds like an expert system to me.

Well, IA is the Great I AM.
I prefer IA over AI.
