Far be it for me to point out that the "godfather of AI" has a vested interest in AI being seen as more capable than maybe it actually is. But more to the point we know that AI systems like loose on an environment cause absolute chaos and fail disastrously.

There was an experiment a couple of months ago where they tried to get an AI to run a small business and I think at one point it ended up sending emails to the FBI claiming it had been defrauded because a product it ordered didn't instantly materialise.

Always feels like it's less that ai can't do the things we keep trying to make it do. But that we are acting like we have had another 20 years of development in the tech.

So everyone's just playing make believe and pretending it's 2045 in 2025.
