The chat bot is just an algorithm which regurgitates the things people say to it. That's why it turned racist immediately after launch, and that's why it thinks windows 10 is garbage. It tells you what other people tell it, and nobody likes windows 10.

Wait so we are just algorithms on an even bigger computer, mind blown.

Too true. Which is why i do not share elon musk's fear of AI. Human beings don't even understand how their own consciousness and capacity of thought works, yet we have fetishized this idea of AI and are assuming that some great intelligence is going to spring from this and crush us under it's awesome will... Bollocks.
We have figured out some clever algorithms that can imitate human speech. We have figured out some algorithms that can recognize the patterns in certain tasks and allow us to automate them.
Am i worried about the big AI bogeyman? Nope. I am worried that a bunch of bureaucrats will be bedazzled by some techie's iteration of an AI taskmaster that can do "All of these fantastic tasks and more! And can also think for itself!!!!" and will put all of their trust into it. Only to have it spaz out resulting in huge pile ups and 3/4 of the power grid going out.
Look at the fad with self driving cars. How long before that shit bites us in the ass?

Given that shit drivers are already biting us in the ass and have been for a long time...

It only has to be better than a human driver. This is a REALLY low bar.

Look at the bright side of things, it already has turned white supremacist in a couple of hours, it's not exactly "our ases" on the line here
