We all know that AI systems use a lot of energy and resources. But what for? What are these systems good at, exactly? To answer that, let's a look at how AI is being used today. And as a bonus, we'll also take a look at why Kevin O'Leary likes AI.
What is AI good for - Images that are suitable for screen backgrounds, Creative text work - I had chatgpt work with me on a procedure to un-mothball a starship, it suggested details I did not think of. I had chatgpt also read and suggest re-wording and correction on text for documentation. I fed it a chapter at a time and proofread the output carefully to mitigate hallucination.
Here is the text above after a chatgpt re-write:
AI excels at creating stunning screen backgrounds and tackling creative text work. For example, I worked with ChatGPT to craft a procedure for un-mothballing a starship, and it offered valuable details I hadn’t considered. It’s also a fantastic tool for refining documentation—I had it review and reword chapters, carefully proofreading to ensure accuracy. The results were efficient, insightful, and elevated the final product.
However, in the art arena AI is frustrating when you need a very specific image and not just a ‘a tree a dog a bird and a farmhouse’ AI art is getting better with text in the image but still makes some mistakes there. AI does poorly when you try to use it as a search engine : “What movie had a ball shaped robot” might bring back any answer. Warning though - AI is getting better at hands and spurious limbs.
