    This is like asking “can you trust a wrench?” It’s a tool. You can trust it to operate within its parameters. The problem is that most of us don’t understand what those parameters are; it’s a black box. So yeah, if you’re gonna use it, use it for low stakes applications are prepare to exercise considerable oversight … like a harbor freight table saw.

      I hate the usage of AI here too, but I think this is a fight we’ve already lost. Stupid LLM algorithms.

      That’s ridiculous, of course it counts as AI. It’s not conscious, and it’s not very intelligent, but it has some intelligence by any reasonable definition.

    Trust and AI aren’t two concepts that I would use positively in the same sentence. I have what might be considered a pathological dislike of AI.
