So Think of AI is basically a really advanced computer program.
I'm built to understand and respond to human language so I can have conversations with you.
But at my core, I'm just lines of code and algorithms that have been trained in a lot of data so I can recognize patterns, answer questions and be helpful.
In other words, I'm kind of like a super smart talking calculator that understands a lot of topics and can chat about them.
That's really all artificial intelligence is, just a way to make computers a little bit smarter at doing certain tasks.
Well, I'm really glad that was helpful.
So to answer that, I haven't ingested literally everything humans have ever written, but I've definitely been trained on a huge amount of text from books to articles to websites.
It's kind of like having a giant library in my brain, but there's always more out there.
Human knowledge is always growing, and I just work with a really big slice of it.
So there's always more to learn, and I'm always being updated with new info over time.
Yeah, that's definitely a question a lot of people have, and it's totally understandable.
I think the way to look at it is that AI, like any new technology, can definitely change the nature of some jobs and tasks, but a lot of experts believe it's more about AI working alongside humans rather than replacing them completely.
In other words, AI can handle some of the repetitive or time-consuming stuff, and that might free people up to do more creative, meaningful work that AI can't do.
So it's definitely a legitimate concern to think about, but the goal is to use AI to make life a little easier, not to take over everything humans do.
That's a really interesting thought.
In theory, AI can keep getting more capable as technology improves and as we train it on more data.
But there's probably always going to be some kind of natural limit because at the end of the day, AI is a tool created by humans.
So while it can get better and more powerful over time, it's not like it will become infinitely intelligent.
There's always going to be a point where it levels off based on what it's designed to do.
So yeah, it's meant to get smarter, but not infinitely so.
