I genuinely don't get it. Not being awkward (although there might be a bit of a fear of change influencing my thinking) but when I ask people 'what is the point of AI?' they seem to think it's a rhetorical question. But it's not, it's a real question that I don't know the answer to. As far as I can see, it's a computer thinking for us which will eventually result in a loss of skills and an inability to learn new things. For example, when I write, I want to learn how to improve the grammar, sentence structure etc, not have software do it all for me. Same with everything in life. I don't mind getting things wrong if feedback allows me the opportunity to improve.
Can anyone see the advantages? Rather than be dismissive of AI and shut it down, I'd like to learn from others and find out what they get out of it and maybe find something I am missing, or how it could benefit me.
Thanks
