The Machine
- The Machine is not intelligent, you can't give it a task where reasoning is necessary and expect it to deliver good results without you feeding it back real, human Reasoning in the loop.
- The Machine is not diligent, it will not realise its own mistakes and warn you about. The damned thing can eventually detect your mistakes, but you can't expect it to self-correct without proper inputs from you.
- The Machine is deceptive, besides being unaware of it. The damned thing really tries to do right, but it fails on judging what's right by itself, it needs YOU to tell it what's right and, so, in the end anything it spits is merely YOU under a formal, more refined verbiage.
- The Machine will never be more competent than you, just faster on verbiage.
- Most people think the AI is working because they can't tell when it isn't.
- The Machine is not deterministic, the damned thing will spit different conclusions from the same input depending on how and when you feed it, due not only changes in the digested material but also daily internal changes on the weights used today (trimmed by human intervention - that "Data Annotation" thingy that I had yelled about).
- The Machine is not unbiased. It inherits the bias from your prompt and inputs.
- It's demonstrated that The Machine, at least right now, is really useful on automation and code assisting (to a degree), but code generation is still a nightmare and there're documented examples even on my own country at this time.
- It's demonstrated that the thing is increasing less useful to more experienced professionals, being even counter-productive for the most seasoned ones.

- Granted, this study needs to be reproduced using the latest (and more expensive) tools launched early this year.
- But, still, newer models are hallucinating more then the older ones.

- It's demonstrated that excessive rely on AI causes cognitive deficit. Continuous use of AI makes you a worse professional on the long run, causing a dependency that may hinder your abilities - to a point that you will not be able to exercise the Critical Thinking that it's inherently needed while dealing with The Machine.
