I just got around to watching some of the ads that the big AI companies aired during the Superbowl. Each time I was thinking "wow, if this is true, this person is an idiot and is in for a world of trouble".

Like, there was one where a young farmer was supposedly taking over the family farm from her grandfather or something. She said something like "I uploaded all our data to ChatGPT and now I do what it tells me to do." If that's the case, wow. That farm is going to fail.

Another one was some guy who ran some kind of a machinist's shop, and was claiming that the bookkeeping and inventory control the shop used was really old fashioned. So, he had ChatGPT create him a whole bunch of new part numbers to make online ordering easier. Again, wow. You're trusting this key part of your business to a machine that just randomly makes stuff up?
