Should we have a secton for AI?

[Jon]

We all know AI is taking over the world. Should I add a forum to discuss this in the Non-Access Issues part of the forums?

How do we know you're really Jon and not an infiltrating AI bot trying to get a foot in the door?

 

[Gasman]

As long as it can be ignored.

Grammar is correct?

 

[GPGeorge]

Maybe, maybe not. You can ask Chatty, perhaps?

Joking aside, I think an AI forum is timely. My son-in-law, for example, is currently working with Google to incorporate their AI capabilities into a project he manages for state government here. I won't go into details because I'll botch it, but it involves reviewing a boatload of documents and extracting meaningful data from them.

Whether we like it or not, we're all going to cross paths with AI in one way or another, professionally or personally.

I do it most days when trying to chat to a human on a website.
Leaves a lot to be desired IMHO, worse than a human with a script.

To be honest, my last interaction with a customer "service" rep at the US Postal Service was worse than any AI bot I have ever encountered. The bots are not rude, regardless of how useful or useless they may be.
