Much like Multimedia in the 90s, everything is now stating it's using AI technology. But is it? Do you believe that?

I reckon about 90% of it is just clever algorithms. To be AI it has to be computer learning and able to decide on what to do with the given instruction. For a lot of things that say they are AI I'm just not convinced.

Yes Google AI results are utilising AI. Chat GTP is using AI to create the final document. And photo and video creation software is to create original unique results. But even then is it all really using AI? Or just complicated algorithms?

What do you think? I'm just not convinced.

As someone that has done some work on so called A.I. Some of it is very much smoke and mirrors.

It's all BS for me & this A.I. bubble needs to burst sooner than later....

CRAZY Ram & Storage prices through the Roof because of demand from Data Centres. - (No wonder our FTTP in Cornwall is so shite. There should be DSLAMS in the Fibre Cabinets for a right job)

nVidia raping the Gaming community after we gamers put them there & pushing A.I. to these realms....

Jensen Huang isn't buying another new shit looking Leather Jacket any time soon off my hard earned cash, that's for sure!

I dunno but the internet is getting shitter and shitter.

That being said, Facebook has quickly twigged that I?m very likely to click play on a video that has a lady with a lovely big bottom in the preview thumbnail.

Social Media getting worse than ever was one reason that kicked me into getting these forums back up and running, Whilst I can help it there will never be an advert or spam on here. Just somewhere for us to say whatever we want between friends.

There is a New Zealand comedy YouTube channel where they pretend to work in a computer store, They also do MMO skits, A recent one this week had one of them being interrogated by social media, He was asking for them to stop showing him videos of half naking dancing ladies. But social media kept replying "but you keep watchin them", and he kept saying "of course I do, but I want them to stop".

AI seems to be the new buzzword of choice. I got a Motorola smartphone recently that has an "AI Camera" on it. I haven't got a clue what that means. All I know is that its not very good .

AI in image manipulation, and included in phone camera software now, is useful. It can now do some advanced things like auto remove someone from a picture and work out what is missing behind them in the picture. Another is to switch where the photo is focused. But I personally don't think most of these tasks are AI, but just clever programming.
