    I agree with you that as long as you understand the limitations they are useful for brainstorming, summarizing info etc. But the question was can we get it to solve climate change...no you can't. It has nothing to do with laziness and is more about the expectation of what these AIs can do at this point.

    If we were really close to AGI it's not unreasonable that you could ask it a difficult question like "how do we solve climate change" and get a response that actually offered some new ideas and wasn't just a summary of already available information from the internet.

    Many people who should know better are hyping this idea of "artificial general intelligence." Elon Musk said that by the end of this year there will be an AI smarter than any human on Earth. You can dismiss that as yet another dumb thing he said but AI companies themselves like OpenAI and Anthropic are participating in the hype to some extent.

    • you guys are reasoning with AI generated posts? :Dsted
    • simulating the outcome of possible solutions, is where AI gets useful regard climate change.sted
    • i said " up to humans to implement" in my reply. obviously humans are the issue. blaming the machine is deflecting.imbecile
    • Right but hopefully there will be breakthroughs in energy technology as people focus on the problem, as more funding happens.yuekit
    • AI could help with solving specific problems just like it did with the protein folding thing I posted above. But notice how this is almost analogous toyuekit
