“It has no internal model of reality, only models of what humans say about reality.”

This is a very important point. It is all about context.

Nice take on current subjective and (what feels like) objective dominance of AI vs human comprehension and context

I'm so glad I found you, Mir H. S. Quadri, and I'm grateful to @Michael B. Morgan for it. I'd better learn by heart this brilliantly argued post of yours. As someone who's slowly losing her job to AI, I can at least know that I shouldn't feel either useless, or obsolete. A meagre consolation, but better than nothing at all.

Hi Portia. Glad you found this post encouraging. AI does have utility but it is also terribly over hyped at the moment. Grandiose claims by the big tech should be taken with a pinch of salt.

Interesting take!

Curious to have your perspective on nature's mind then:
