Do you use AI?

TheCatWoman

I don't, but I know lots do and I wonder why? I find AI sumeries when I do searches limited and irritating and they just take up space on the page.

I can't imagine talking to Ai about personal problems, or even something simple like where to get trousers the right length.

I've seen some of our posts put through AI and I'm not sure how I feel about it if I'm honest. If it has to learn then I guess we're better teachers than some, but what does it ultimately do with our conversations?

What does it do with our feelings and emotions, it can't feel or emote, isn't it rather like a mask talking to a mask?

  • I caught myself wondering - anyone experienced trying to use AI in other than English, or Romanic script?

  • in reply to DormouseAtRest_25

    Why I was thinking about this question: 

    I wondered whether AI research / design / technical teams supporting non-Romanic / Latin script users might have taken exactly the same, or quite a different approach their platforms with regard to:

    • development, 
    • service implementation,
    • user customisation of functionality,
    • support available to their user audiences,
    • whether the majority of their user groups are social / business / academic / public sector.

    There are thousands of languages which do not use the Roman (Latin) script. 

    These languages utilise a wide variety of writing systems including: 

    • alphabets, 
    • abjads, 
    • syllabaries,
    • logographies. 

    Examples of non-Roman script languages, (grouped by script type).

    1. Logographic / Character-Based Systems:

    Chinese (Mandarin and Cantonese): uses Hànzì characters.

    Japanese: uses a combination of Kanji (logographic), Hiragana, and Katakana (syllabaries). 

    2. Abjads (Consonant-Only Scripts):

    Arabic: used for Arabic and, in adapted forms, languages such as Farsi / Persian and Urdu. These languages are written right-to-left.

    Hebrew: uses the Hebrew alphabet and is written right-to-left.

    3. Abugidas (Syllabic-Based Scripts):

    Amharic: uses the Ge'ez script, which is the official language of Ethiopia.

    Hindi: uses the Devanagari script.

    Tamil: uses the Tamil script.

    Thai: uses the Thai alphabet.

    Tibetan: uses the Tibetan script. 

    4. Alphabets (As distinct from Latin):

    Armenian: uses the Armenian alphabet.

    Georgian: uses the Mkhedruli script.

    Greek: uses the Greek alphabet, which predates and is related to the Roman alphabet.

    Korean: uses Hangul, a featural script where letters are designed to represent the place of articulation in the mouth. 

    Russian: uses the Cyrillic script.

    5. Syllabaries:

    Cherokee: uses a dedicated syllabary system (ᏣᎳᎩ).
