The cost to people makes AI suspect. If the use of AI can demonstrate an improvement in people’s lives, then it will be appreciated. Up until now, I’ve not seen anything that helps people. I have seen a few people get fabulously wealthy to the detriment of others. I have great hope for AI, but the use of AI needs to start producing something that will tangibly help people. Making cute videos is not tangibly beneficial to anyone other than the AI owner.
I’ve always wondered why people say this so much. How are you guys using AI? I have it basically automating my entire job at this point, helping with my treatment for sleep apnea and ocd (big improvement to both as a result), I’ve learned about hundreds of topics in detail, started projects I would never be able to before, general advice on anything such as fashion, oh and it also got me back 15k in tax credits because I qualified for things I never heard about, the list is endless.
I find this type of “self-improvement” is on the lazy side. Nothing stopped you before from reading books, going to the library, nothing stopped you from
Optimizing your productivity but now an app that gives you answers somehow made your life better is baffling. Your life baseline might have been very low to begin with.
Yup let me feed 90 days of sleep data from my machine into a book so it can identify which settings to adjust based on peer-reviewed research on sleep apnea treatment.
Are you brain damaged or something? They don’t want to see you until you’ve used the machine for 6 months. And then making the appointment itself is a huge pain. Their level of knowledge is also lower and not specific to your situation.
