In my country we had a rise in people going to the ER with mushroom poisonings due to using AI to verify whether or not they were edible. Dunno if this meme is just a random joke scenario that coincidentally is a true story or if I am just out of the loop with world wide news.
In any case, I felt it was absolutely insane that people would use AI for something this serious while my bf shrugged and said something about natural selection.
That is so fucked. It is shit like this that makes me not trust AI at all. One thing is how it gets things wrong all the time and never learns from mistakes or corrections. Another is that I simply do not trust the faceless people behind these AIs to be altruistic and not having an agenda with their little chat bots. There is a lot of potential in AI, but it is also a tool that can and will be used to mis- and disinform people and that is just too dangerous on top of all the mistakes AI still makes constantly.
