It's actually a bit tiresome. It's as much a marketing term as a real value driver. That said it is and will change the world. The well known publicly available LLMs are quite common tools to make common workplace tasks easier and make you as a professional more productive/competitive. I think it's still up in the air whether AI replaces people or enhances them in this space... Software developers come to mind as being first at risk, but maybe their skillsets just change. If I were to predict what the future holds, it will be that tech professionals become more generalist, utilising AI tools for coding/marketing/testing/research/documentation etc etc, gradually replacing dedicated roles within an organisation. If professionals want to stay relevant, upskilling with these tools will be essential. Using AI in actual products though is definitely going to change the world in a huge way. For some time now 4th gen aircraft have been retrofitted with AI systems to enable the pilot to be a nothing more than a passenger in ongoing R&D/trials. In our lifetime it looks very likely that 90+% of air combat will be carried out by unmanned aircraft, only increasing the likelihood of war. Warships and subsurface systems are going the same way. Almost all large warfighting assets of the next generation are being designed as a system of systems, with autonomous drones working at distance from manned assets to generate warfighting mass in a cost effective way and to enable escalation without the normal risk of doing so with manned assets. Great reply BH thanks, ironically the fallible part of AI will always lay with humans, greed, power and desire, the technology is a gateway to many great discoveries in science and medicine but the flip side is it could be used in unthinkable nefarious ways by your average joe type,we should be proceeding with great caution yet we appear to be like kids in a sweetshop with this new technology.

It feels like everyone knows how dangerous it might be but no one knows how to regulate it. I think it's quite possibly impossible. I think it will give such a competitive advantage that states that do not completely embrace it will be outmanoeuvred or even just wiped out by states that do. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Funny you say that. I’m hearing the opposite at the moment. There’s a few AI programs that are basically appointment setters that trawl through LinkedIn, Xing etc sending opening msgs and piss of 90% of people but they are successful enough that companies are using them as a start for business development reps. C-suite and levels below them do not want to buy from a machine. They still prefer humans, that will never go away. But as Lead generators, they will probably take over eventually. I got offered to test one for free yesterday called Alice. I’ll give it a go in the next few weeks and see how it fairs. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

A mate of mine works with advanced onsite search tools. The company he works for, let’s just say their dev teams are fuucking shoite. He’s been using a couple of the AIs to rewrite/improve the CSS for his clients with amazing results. So I do think that the first industry to fall foul of them will be dev teams, front and back end. We were talking the other day about starting a company to create one specifically to write CSS code but it wouldn’t be much of a leap to have it coding in all languages (JAVA, script, Python etc). If anyone wants to invest in the start up when it’s off the ground, just send me a 6’ check addressed to MushroomAI Quote Link to post Share on other sites
