RE: Convenience vs. Consequences

the potential benefits of such tools are dependent on the knowledge and skills of its users. AI merely answers the questions we ask. It doesn’t give any other response based on wisdom. In other words, if we fail to ask the needed question, we won’t be getting the best response.
Now, isn't that quite an insight. I had the same experiences, "talking" to a chat-AI.
The funniest thing was telling it jokes, and asking it of the punch-line. It was not capable getting it. Since humor and paradox isn't something a machine can "grasp". It's a cultural thing. I placed the same joke in the text field numerous times and it always failed. Same with riddles, in particular, when it's a voluminous riddle. The machine cannot seek out the important information from the unimportant information, since every given information in a riddle is treated by it as equally important. Language is a complex human trait and it's directly attached to body. The physical body of humans make them language-learners. Since AI has no physical body, it cannot relate to physical sensations. It can though simulate it and give answers which seem coherent. But that's not the same.
I have nothing against using AI for the purposes you mentioned. But surely it can also be used to have humans out-ranked in what they are needed for. Since the development is inevitable we will live with it, in the same way we lived with books, films and the internet. If you can't howl against the wolves, you howl with them.
Believing that every moving or still image on the screen is true is something that people tend to do anyway. It will probably be the case that the distinction can no longer be made and everyone will have to think about how they deal with what they see on the screen.
I reminded of an Indian Movie, PK. An alien from another world lands on our Earth. On hus planet there is nothing like language or clothings. He encounters great difficulties dealing with the two aspects of human societies. There are humourous and insightful explanations by the protagonist about how humans don't mean what they say. For instance, saying, "I love chicken" doesn't means that one is going to take care of the chicken but to have it in the dinner. Similarly, how the ssme sentence spoken in different tones deliver entirely different meanings. Like wise, how our clothings define us.
Machines, as of present at least, are incapable to grab all the richness of cultures.
Yeah! There is no way out. !LOLZ The question is how much strength we have to howl with them..
Seriously......! It happens. I have seen people believing on such ridiculous animations that made me question their sensibility.....
Thanks for your insights on the matter, @erh.germany . As always, I enjoyed ❤️❤️

So funny! HaHa!, the chicken example.
No, also not as of future. Machines are machines. Would machines grab the richness of cultures, they would not be machines but humans. LoL
There are simple machines and advanced ones.
A machine cannot be a human being. Only a human being can be a human being. All other beings are plant beings and animal/insect beings. Other apart from beings, are objects.
That is why being mortal is quite a good thing. Within ones lifetime to face drastic change happens more than once. If one is lucky, one can cope towards such and such progress, before one tires out. The moment one becomes too tired and does not want to face another challenge, one became already old enough to die. Is what I think. Of course, this is not a static thing and no rule but it's what I think about how often one can howl with wolves.
HaHa! Now, does not everyone thinks that of everyone else. So funny. It happens both ways, doesn't it? I caught myself numerous times in my life to have been all too gullible.
Yeah! It seems impossible that machines would ever be able to grab the richness of culture, but I still have fears. Baseless fear you may say....
True.
I agree. It's pretty insightful
Me too. !LOLZ. After I had dropped the previous reply I reminded of how I myself was fooled by an animation.
We are prone to believe what we see with our eyes. Perhaps seeing things affects our analytical skills more than merely listening them.
Thanks for taking your time to respond. !LUV

The human being is an all sensory creature. When you, for example video chat with your kids or relatives, you may relate but not with all your senses. And also, the environment is excluded which always helps when things around people happen and to see them reacting in your presence. Or also the smells, and the overall atmosphere in a room/open space, might also sharpen the analytical sense. Not so directly as if one analyses a piece of written text, but different. We need all of it.
LoL, laughing about oneself is quite a trait. Good that you have it :)
I understand. Human being is a complex creatures with layers of complexities such as complexity of cultural influence, language, unconscious, sensory perceptions and much more. Machines are far away from many of these factors.
Hehe. It lightens life a bit, doesn’t it?
