”If words can mean anything, how do you protect consumers?
Should it really be called AI at all, what the companies are doing? This concept, which is so thrilling to both the media and consumers, does it not create a complete misrepresentation of what is going on? Doesn't the concept itself risk misleading and thus be the first and most obvious contribution to many misunderstandings?”
In March I wrote this post about the ongoing AI hype and glaring weaknesses in the promises of what the tech can deliver. I’m still convinced we are being misled by terminology, while at the same time it’s hard to address issues without resorting to using the same language.
This is the podcast version of that post, as part of my series where I personally read select blog posts and release them as produced shows (with sound effects). You can choose to listen or read – whatever works best for you.
