Never did. It's just more and more obvious with each new "feature" that it's built for monetization, not for user functionality.

I think it's that, and something even worse as well. There are probably many well meaning people working on these things thinking they really are creating and guiding and intelligence. It's an opportunity to feel like a god and a tech wizard at the same time.

The Chinese Room thought experiment is a good place to start the conversation. AI isn't intelligent, and it doesn't hallucinate. Its not sentient. It's just a computer program.

People need to stop using personifying language for this stuff.

Having worked for a couple chip design shops, and now at ibm... ibm is the one of a few companies pushing the envelope in chip design. You just don't need what they make, so you've never heard of it.
