    A1.5. At least it we're specifically talking about generative ML models. I don't think it truly works in any domain, but it gets close enough that it looks functional in small chunks (and may be good enough in the moment). Kind of like how the Earth is experientially flat at the human scale, and can be assumed t( be so for most daily tasks.

      @ZachWeinersmith Currently A1 but willing to nudge toward A2 if the evidence shows, e.g., fewer people are now dying of cancer.

        @ZachWeinersmith I suppose C2, I mean in theory A2 but in practice, to me the relative wastefulness of AI (and by that I mean LLM) does not actually make it a good fit for a lot of tasts it is currently being used for.

          @ZachWeinersmith c2/c3 because in the context of setting all the fossil fuels on fire to make food and heat our houses, we have to burn fossil fuels to solve the problems created by being unwilling to stop burning fossil fuels for food and space heating. Everything we do is setting ancient forests on fire, just some of it is socially acceptable.

              @ZachWeinersmith A2, presuming that you mean "AI", i.e. LLMs.

                  @ZachWeinersmith solidly A1

                  It's destroying people's critical thinking skills, in some cases causing irreversible harm (death), and has no real-world value.

                  The amount of times I've seen people ask AI a question, then have to check it was right - meaning it would have taken the same or less time to just figure it out from the jump? Bananas.

                  I'm also so sick of jobs that will get zero benefit from AI having to find a way to integrate it to please leadership.

                  Fuck AI.

                    @ZachWeinersmith A1, because "artificial intelligence" isn't a thing. Machine learning, including LLMs, solidly A2.
