  1. Yes! While it appears nuanced, it is like AI speaking in AAVE (ebonics) or Jamaican Patois. These are all tasks. Most human intellect resides in performing tasks —the first level being mimicking and repetition in learning. These are the tasks AI is performing. Therefore, in addition to my first definition, I will add human intellect development tasks. Generative AI uses predictive text to respond. Once you upload a file, Gen AI provides a summary. If you request that it create a podcast, AI uses the information to generate a conversation. I know this because I go back and forth with Chat GPT. Sometimes, Chat GPT generates my request in two formats so that I can compare. With Audio Gen AI, this task becomes two versions of the same information—but the two outputs have a conversation—predicting how AI -1 will answer based on the last text output of AI -2. So, how do you define the aforementioned level of performance if you believe it's BEYOND task-oriented? Now, when AI is at the apex of performing intellectual tasks and has become cognitive, it responds to requests with an original concept not found in uploaded documents or on the Internet -then whoa. When AI is "thinking, assessing, and being aware" without input, I will find a little plot of land on uncharted territory.

  3. It's a sad state of affairs when our POTUS election comes down to voting against a candidate instead of electing someone who will most effectively lead the country.😎
  4. @Mel Hopkins again I say AI is beyond simply completing a requested task. Did you listen to the audio I shared? Did you hear the nuance in the voices the back and forth banter. This is not based upon a clever prompt it is 7 minutes of an intelligent conversation about a book.
  5. I did not "Praise" the video in the sense that I thought it was true or that it convinced me that people could talk to dead people. I found it interesting though. I would use AI to benefit all of mankind. I think medical research would be at the top of my list. But in a capitalist society greed will corrupt how AI is used, that is what makes it scary to me. My experience using it for coding is that it will do what you ask it to do, even if that is not the best way for a given task to be accomplished. I'm learning that it is better to prompt the AI by telling it what you want to accomplish and let it tell you how to do it -- this is where it really shines. I think it is beyond the task level. Again, this is what I have access to God only knows what the state of the art is capable of...
  6. Mel You already KNOW most Black Americans are mixed and not only come from various African tribes/ethnicities but also various tribes and ethnicities within the Caucasian and Native American races we are admixed with. But I hear what you're saying about learning more about your ancestral heritage. The good part of it is you can learn more about your DNA and genetic coding to determine which foods, medicines, and other products are best for you to consume. I'd advocate for Black people to learn more digital technology if we will use it mostly to cure diseases like HIV and Ebola and Diabetes and other ills that affect many Black communities; but if they're going to use it just to make more "Trap music".....forget it. We don't need more videos of skinny bruthaz in dread locks peeing on and desecrating the graves of their recently murdered "op".
