    Do you expect rocket scientists to be good at chess?

    Intelligence doesn’t mean it’s blanket smart. This is entirely on individual people for this asinine assumption. It’s never been marketed that way, so why in this singular case is the definition suddenly different? The general public understands this isn’t some be all end all. This assumptive attitude that Lemmy has is fucking weird.

      I disagree.

        Got a link? Because people just think it’s cool, not that it’s gonna be this thing that can do everything.

        So there must be some place people are getting this “it can do everything” idea from? It’s more an anti-ai propaganda angle, and that’s prevalent mainly on Lemmy. So a source to back up this “ai can do anything” please.

          Tradition dictates that the first claimant bears responsibility for the link.

              Yep, go up the thread and see which claim was made first ;)

              Okay. Ah . . . Yep, it was yours.

              The general public understands this isn’t some be all end all.

              So that’s the claim, and it was made first. Now. Let’s see that link!

                  Oh that’s a different person there. You can tell because there’s a different name on top of the comment.

                  I mean, I don’t have a link to prove that though, so, maybe it is me? Hm. That’s certainly something to think about.

                    Can’t throw your hat in an argument, then balk when questioned lmfao.

                    You’re joining an argument in the middle, doesn’t matter who said it first.

                    Also. How do you propose I provide you evidence that’s it’s NOT marketed? The mere lack of it, and the lack of you being able to provide any, should be ample proof for someone wanting to have a civil discourse.

      I would expect anyone claiming to be intelligent to be able to beat an Atari 2600 set to its very lowest difficulty. This is a task on par with counting the number of Rs in the word ‘strawberry’, something the intelligent ChatGPT also famously cannot do.

        It’s actually not that easy. Fire up an emulator and take it for a spin. Like, you won’t get away with obvious mistakes.

        Do you think being good at chess is equivalent to intelligence…?

        Those are also vastly different tasks, a toddler can count, while they likely can’t play chess.

        You have a very strange notion of what “intelligence” means.

        A toddler untrained at counting and untrained at chess would be good at neither. Same goes for adults, you are untrained in rocket physics, so you won’t be good at it either. Why are you holding an ai at some weird ungodly bar that doesn’t apply to anything else? No one’s claimed it to be good at these things. Adults who can’t swim and go in water drown, why? Because they weren’t taught. Notice a pattern yet?
