The core problem with A.I. (lemmy.world)

I knew I wasn’t interested in A.I. for a while now, but I think I can finally put it into words.

A.I. is supposed to be useful for things I’m not skilled at or knowledgeable about. But since I’m not skilled at or knowledgeable about the thing I’m having A.I. do for me, I have no way of knowing how well A.I. accomplished it for me.

If I want to know that, I have to become skilled at or knowledgeable about the thing I need to do. At this point, why would I have A.I. do it since I know I can trust I’m doing it right?

I don’t have a problem delegating hiring people who are more skilled at or more knowledgeable about something than me because I can hold them accountable if they are faking.

With A.I., it’s on me if I’m duped. What’s the use in that?

That's the problem though, no one needed or asked for a technology to write letters badly.

eh. Sometimes I let it put in platitudes if I'm emailing someone I know that's important to. Otherwise my "hi I want you to do x thing in exchange I will y here is the information you need to do it or make me a quote" sometimes ruffles feathers. I understand that some people need the little fluff words to feel respected and it's important to me that they feel respected but man do I suck at it.
