The top seven problems that AI solves perfectly can all be counted on one hand.

One of them is pissing people off by sending words created in the most dismissive and low-effort way possible, to super-effectively show how very little you care

I beat the odds by never submitting a cover letter

Yeah but that hand could have any number of fingers.

Based on our recent history of technological progress, advances in AI will primarily be used to make better porn.

I've already read things about it being used to make faked revenge porn.

Did people already memory hole the Taylor Swift incident?

Linear regression is, technically, machine learning! Which means it’s AI 😎
Someone once likened using "ML" to solve linear regression problems to using a sword to slice bread. It looks cool, but it's a thoroughly overengineered and awkward tool for the job.

i guess its useful for finding solutions within very specific datasets which is not how people who tout AI as the next big thing want to use it

That's how I want to use it. Take over data entry, validations, QA testing, and code reviews so we can have people working on the more important things that require more complex decision making and critical thinking skills. A world with fewer technical defects would be nice...

Only thing I’ve heard it’s really good for is scanning lab test results for anomalies

I’ve been able to work on projects that I didn’t have enough of the technical background to make enough progress on. It’s been a godsend.

My last dealing with AI was in the early 90s, writing RFP responses for the Post Office covering what our Research people could do for them with handwriting-recognition, while hoping I was correctly understanding what Research was doing with that custom processor design :-)

I finally see what you did there.
