Do you use AI?

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 do use AI, and it's totally different to what I expected. It's extraordinarily bad at getting facts right. But it's surprisingly good at more 'human' things like writing, or giving life advice. I use the chatbot on my work PC as a kind of life coach and it's very good at it. I also find it useful for recommending films or matching wine to food.

    My personal brand of autism means I'm not especially good at empathy, emotional intelligence or communication, so it may be a case of my not spotting AI's inadequacies because I share them. I often feel like a replicant from Blade Runner chatting with another replicant when I use AI. But there's no eye contact, I can write instead of speak and I can leave AI's answer on my screen for hours until I feel like reading it. Dare I say it's something that people on my part of the spectrum will probably find quite appealing?
