I knew I wasn’t interested in A.I. for a while now, but I think I can finally put it into words.
A.I. is supposed to be useful for things I’m not skilled at or knowledgeable about. But since I’m not skilled at or knowledgeable about the thing I’m having A.I. do for me, I have no way of knowing how well A.I. accomplished it for me.
If I want to know that, I have to become skilled at or knowledgeable about the thing I need to do. At this point, why would I have A.I. do it since I know I can trust I’m doing it right?
I don’t have a problem delegating hiring people who are more skilled at or more knowledgeable about something than me because I can hold them accountable if they are faking.
With A.I., it’s on me if I’m duped. What’s the use in that?
That’s the fundamental insight right there.
If you write an email having your name in the sender address or if you sign something with your name, people expect you to be responsible for the content. Outsourcing the content creation to AI does not lift this responsibility. If the AI makes a mistake or if the tone is off, it’s still on you.
Yeah, that’s why this statement is at the end, the rest was just building the case for this conclusion.
