Generative AI produces Bullshit

Generative AI produces bullshit: plausible-looking output that may or may not bear any resemblance to reality.

Luckily people are quickly realising this, and the bubble hopefully won't inflate too far before it bursts.

AI, as a tool for spotting patterns contained in mass datasets, _does_ have powerful uses.

The "I" in AI cannot stand for "Intelligence" as intelligence isn't involved anywhere. It should be called "AL" - Artificial Learning. Or "APM" - Artificial Pattern Matching.
