I look forward to the AI trend fizzling out. It's only slightly less silly than the cryptocurrency trend was.
It reminds me of 3D
AI exists because not everyone frequents a low toxicity forum like Lemmy.
This artificial pseudointelligence exists because there's the “gee whiz, that's cool” of a computer talking like a person, and a bunch of hype chasers looking to cash in. Much like cryptocurrency before it, and the dot-com boom before that, there is little substance to it, and most of it will be commercially irrelevant a decade from now.
