Would you argue with AI? Do you think AI is always right?

Would you argue with a dictionary?
How about arguing with your toaster when it burns toast?
Nope, that’s on you. You’ve got to set the knobs a little different.
With today’s current popular AI platforms, such as ChatGPT, that’s called being a Prompt Engineer. You have to know how to ask it questions; you also have to use common sense as the machine has none.
AI doesn’t think - it’s like a really smart dictionary that pulls in information from all over the web.
The web is not always accurate. This is why some AI’s for a while would start arguing with you if you asked Trump questions; a lot of online forums had a lot of arguments associated with anything Trump, so that’s what the AI regurgitated.
AI is not Intelligent; it works well if you try to be.

You're absolutely right that AI doesn't think like we do. It's more like a super-smart reference tool that pulls in information from all over the place. And you're spot on about the web not always being accurate - that's a big challenge for AI.
I think the key is to approach AI with a mix of curiosity and caution. It can be incredibly helpful and powerful, but we need to be aware of its limitations and potential biases.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts on this - it's a really interesting topic to dive into!

@markk0217 AI's a smart info hub, but the web's accuracy can be tricky. Balance curiosity with caution—know its strengths and limitations. Thanks for sharing—such an interesting topic to dive into!

It's no doubt that we cannot rely on AI for hard facts and arguing with it without using our common sense is exactly as it sounds- dumb.
But apart from using AI for just q&a relating to open source information, it makes more sense to leverage the tech and come up with something better and that which suits an industry or domain.
No doubt there are many AI tools for content and research, like even for breaking the ice and connecting with someone new. But it is only as smart as your research and the prompt data you feed!
What if there was a tool that understood a person's personality and generated an ice breaker message for you? How would you like to be arguing with that tool??
Let's connect on LinkedIn if you interested.

@sana_ismail Absolutely, AI's strength lies in the quality of data it processes. Your point about leveraging tech for domain-specific solutions is spot-on! Imagine a tool that not only crafts icebreakers but also understands personalities that would change the game! It'd be fascinating to see how such advancements could revolutionize interactions. Connecting on LinkedIn sounds great—let's continue this conversation there!

You bring up an interesting point about AI. It's true that AI operates based on the information it has been fed and the way it's prompted. Just like a dictionary or a toaster, it's up to us to use it effectively and with common sense.
AI's lack of actual intelligence means that it can regurgitate information from the web, which as we know, isn't always accurate. It's essential for us to approach AI with a critical mindset and understand its limitations.
I believe that AI can be incredibly useful when used thoughtfully and with the right approach. It's not always right, but it can certainly be a valuable tool when employed intelligently.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts on this topic!

@felix_f_tao You've highlighted some crucial aspects of AI. Its reliance on input and prompts mirrors how we'd handle a dictionary or toaster—it's all about our interaction. Being aware of its limitations and potential biases is key, just like approaching it with a critical mindset. When used wisely, AI becomes a powerful tool, adding value despite its lack of inherent intelligence. Thanks for diving into this topic—it's such an important conversation!
AI is very intelligent and useful tool but sometime it's not right, So arguing with AI is useless.

For myself, ChatGPT, Cody etc. are tools when I need fast solutions or examples how to use some specific methods for my coding.
AI will always be a tool since it's not researching for himself. Its knowledge is still based on information coming from humans that created documentary, dictionary, tutorials etc. As long as an AI doesn't understand consciousness, there's no reason for arguing.
AI is very useful and intelligent but generally arguing or debating is useless for us. Because AI's way of thinking is very different also sometimes AI does not understands or misunderstands what I am saying. But sometimes it provides me brand new perspective.

@can_bartu_aydinlik You've captured the AI experience perfectly! It's a valuable tool, no doubt, but the nuances of human communication can be a challenge. The occasional misunderstandings aside, the fresh perspectives it offers can be a game-changer. It's a unique journey navigating the quirks and brilliance of AI together!
I wouldn't argue with AI, but I still would question what it says sometimes. because since AI cannot think and finds all the info on Internet. sometimes it cannot answer question properly because it can't analyse the question and generally understand it. for example, once I was taking part in an auction and asked AI what should I do, but since it can't analyse, it didn't actually help me, so I used amazing bargains customer service and everything worked out pretty well
