  • I have just read about Daisy the AI who is used by a phone network to speak to scammers. I have listened to a clip of her who sounds like a lovely old lady who enjoys baking and winds up the scammer in her conversations where she sounds confused. I don't know quite how it works but sounds a good idea.

  • Daisy sounds like a good use of AI, but one of the few. I think some of the medical advances could be good like checking mamograms and stuff, but to my mind it still needs to proved over a longer term. Over all I'm not in favour of it or more computerisation of life.

  • The medical and scientific potential is massive, but the reality of it isn't that we need to fear AI, it's the people who own it.

    History has proven that people with money, use new technology to make themselves more money. Greed will be the driver behind the evolution of AI and will decide it's direction based on where it can benefit those who own it.

  • On that note I find it interesting, what Samsung are doing with their flagship phones. Offering them with oodles of convenient AI. Giving their consumers two years to get really used to it all - then, end of 2025, withdrawing the teat.

    You can still have it, only now if you want it that bad, you will have to pay a monthly subscription for it. At least for the best bits. 

    Clever aren't they.
