    We are a long way off from true AI. You know how VR was a thing with the virtual boy and then the whole thing died for awhile until the oculus and vive revived the idea like 20 years later? And how VR is basically dead again because it’s still not quite there? AI is basically like that. We’ll get there eventually, but this current trend isn’t going to be enough to get us to true AI. It’ll go quiet again for awhile until there’s some new approach that revives the hype again. Maybe the next phase will do it, but the current AI approach is a dead end from a true AI perspective.

      You aren’t wrong; but unlike VR, “dumb” AI has been added to so many devices, used so prolifically, and been invested in so much that it will hold until real AI exists.

      AI has already written more on the internet than humans have. There is no reason to believe it is a niche product like VR.

        The internet. Where it gets all it’s training material?

        This is not the brag you think it is.

          I don’t think it’s a brag. It’s likely more a simple statement of Truth, or at least “near” truth Since the great majority of the internet is not available on a search engine and therefore is unlikely to have been found by an AI
