I mean, even Alexa gets the time and date right...

 

 

Alexa can't write 95% of my board report.

I guess my question would have to be if it keeps telling you that the information may be wrong, how can you tell when it isn't?

The question then is... Would you trust that board report?

 

As it is, the whole AI thing seems to be great at understanding language and writing things.

 

But not great at validating information.

 

So the question would be "do you trust your board report"?

That's why I said 95%.  The other 5% is checking and changing.  Which everyone should be doing regardless of if it's AI or a dumb Word template.

Same way to tell if any info online is right or wrong.  Verify it.  If people aren't verifying their work, I don't see that as a failure of AI.

What is the point of having something answer your questions if you can't trust the answers? Just research it the old-fashioned way.

 I'm faster using the AI then validating, than searching for the info directly.  And that's as a 30 year internet nerd, I know my way around internet search.

I'm doing the roster for work and I have 25 members of staff and three need to be on each weekend for the next 14 weeks so I wondered if copilot could do this, even though I thought it would say something like staff ABC the DEF then GHI etc.

 

But no apparently "....Unfortunately, such a design does not exist, because it would violate a necessary condition for resolvable designs, called the Bruck-Ryser-Chowla theorem. ..."

 

Oh well so I just did it on a piece of paper like I usually do.

There's a lot of stuff that works well inbetween the range of "tell me the time" and "build me an army worthy of Mordor".
