AI should be a decision support system, not an autonomous one. We’ve seen time and time again how it doesn’t “think”, it just optimises for the end goal. Anthropomorphising it is dangerous because it lulls us into thinking it can imitate human decision making. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2023/jun/01/us-military-drone-ai-killed-operator-simulated-test

I can’t have been the only one to think of this but wouldn’t it be nice if you could create a simulated 80s/90s cartoon experience on Netflix or whatever by adding a few shows to a playlist and then have them going through each in the right order but randomised shows? Then I wouldn’t have to keep changing the show for my 3 yo when he gets bored. 3yo’s don’t want to binge watch, they want variety! #ShowerThoughts
