I don’t know why ppl cannot figure this out. What we are calling “AI” is just a machine putting words together based on what it has “seen” in its training data. It has no intelligence and has no intent. It just groups words together.

It’s like going into a library and asking the librarian to be a doctor. They can tell you what the books in the library say about the subject (and might even make up some things based on what they saw in a few episodes of House), but they cannot actual do the work of a doctor.

💯 I used to work for a company that sold a product literally for this purpose.

During Covid, and all the hybrid working that came from it, we pitched it as a way to conduct contact-tracing and to monitor how many of your employees are in the office at one time, what floors they are on, what offices they are using…we even had an app that would track your movements throughout the office (for your safety, of course)

Yeah, it’s a nickname. We all know it’s “A.C.D.C” but we say Acca Dacca cause that’s what Aussies do.

Memmy on iOS is pretty damn good. Closest thing to Apollo I’ve found so far
