The idea that AI can do everything and that it will be cheap.

[–] slazer2au@lemmy.world 7 points 3 months ago (1 children)

It's not cheap now, it never will be with corporate greed.

It is still heavily subsidized and not profitable.

I know little about AI... can you explain your reasoning?

They are pitching that you can replace all schoolteachers with AI. As if a classroom full of kids is going to quietly shuffle in and sit down at a computer to be intellectually challenged without adults present.

They are pitching that most doctors can be replaced with AI.

It almost works, but not quite. The sellers of the tech think it will eventually work, and that may be true but they are burning a a lot of goodwill and potential customers on the way. Some AI tech will survive, but it will be rebranded and just the stuff that proves actually useful or productivity enhancing.
