A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

I have a question...
LLMs and generative AI are really only good at a subset of things, and we use them outside those things too often. But one thing they're extremely good at is identifying similarities in text.
I don't think AI as a technology is a problem, simply how we're using it, much like a knife.
If there was an art search engine that indexed every piece of human-made art that could be found and allowed you to search for it in natural language, would you use it? This would be different from a search engine in that natural language allows for more clarity of context and emphasis.
In what context would that ever be useful?
