ChatGPT has its uses, but I still hate it – and I’ll tell you why | Imogen West-Knights
(This is from The Guardian. The NYT has entire sections that see AI creep, e.g. tech, business, or education. Big Tech is skewing election candidates and could possibly slat academic contests. In the industry, project teams shuffle participants at different stages while others, possibly stockholders, evaluate their odds. Chatter involves EQ at different experience levels. In the culture, legitimacy depends on credibility, and thus credit. Early entries are subject to cuts, those long in the tooth to algorithms like DOGE. AI has its own issues hampering its growth. Democracy claims to favor the individual and is more existentialist. Responsible, transparent, open-source, and those sorts of values are derived. Then sovereignty and security. Or surtaxes. Gets pretty thick which is what these many parameter models excel at in matching patterns compared to the single or few dimensional depictions that people are superficially capable of . But it misses nuances and conflates opposites, so again it is up to an observer and that becomes their reality. Lots of fun for the puzzle-minded. The press itself assumes language capacity and may benefit from a stretch in accessibility. The dialectic of wealth and power that it referees, now funding and regulations, itself faces competition from ... you-guessed-it. Shades of Wezenbaum and the Good Ol' Fascist. Luckily it also serves well for censorship and propaganda. Tech knows this, clear as an Azure sky. Waiting on Voight-Kampf test. Ack Ack.)
