I think the term AI has become misaligned in some ways.
Artificial Intelligence would refer to algorithms that learn or adapt, according to data fed into it.
For example, some cameras have eye detection focus points thet have to use an average of where your eye looks thus a form of AI averages whee your eyes look and adapt the software. After awhile it is perfect.
Is this feature automatically bad because it is a form of AI?
AI also with searches (whoever doesn't take internet searches with a grain of salt is causing a problem for themselves) averages out a multitude of responses and amalgamates them. Again, not necessarily a bad thing but if it is using poor data then it becomes a poor response.
In these cases using some judgement and common sense helps.
Other forms are taking away human jobs etc, granted. I just think all of it doesn't need to be lumped into the same boat. It has become a generic term.

So, the slide rules were lying too!
Mine must have. Nearly flunked trig.
Nope, the phrase was coined by guys working with the early computers back then. Slide rules can’t lie.
So you’re saying I nearly flunked Trig all on my own??Nope, the phrase was coined by guys working with the early computers back then. Slide rules can’t lie.
Chalk it up to operator error.
Joking aside. Always been pretty good at math. Usually aced my classes both in HS and the ones I took as an adult taking college courses. So yeah. Trig was pretty frustrating because I just plain didn’t get it.Chalk it up to operator error.
Okay...... I really liked this one!!What do mortgages and trigonometry have in common? You have to sine and cosine.
PS: I stole this one for my personal use over on FB.
