It does sadly though have potential to make kids dumber than dumb as they turn to ai to do their homework for them

It could help the kids learn more if they paid attention to what the ai wrote, but most kids won’t pay attention and will just skim the written articles and change things here and there so it doesn’t sound too artifically created.

But yes, ai can and is very helpful in some cases- and a real time saver too for certain applications.

They’re programmed to take sides, and the programmers are leftists.

As one poster said the AI scans the internet as if it was all true information, then forms an idea or solution based on that data whether it’s good or not. Since the vast majority of ‘information sources’ are liberal infested outlets, the dat is inherently slanted to the left and in many cases the far, far left.
So it’s no wonder the AI becomes a far left whack job, just like your child being sent to a university with at far left administration and agenda, then four years later you cannot recognize your own child......................

A scientist friend of mine on Facebook yesterday expressed the same concern I've had for months: A lot of content on the internet is gibberish, or wrong, or (deliberate) fantasy. But the AI models don't know any of that and treat it all as Gospel. But then the AI models manage to misunderstand a lot of it. So what they ingest, miscomprehend, and then spew back is highly inaccurate. And as more and more internet content is generated by AI through this process, a recursive feedback loop of rapidly expanding gibberish is starting to grow. What will the internet look like in a few years under this process?

Hang on to those books folks, because you may not be able to trust anything you read online in short order.

It would be fairly simple for a programmer to add a ‘fact check’ loop to find refutations of every assertion, left or right, and eventually make the AI a ‘zero sum’. Weighting the responses as to their probable authenticity and balancing that against know falsehoods.................
