I think adaption will create a mess effectively needing more people to clean it up than before.

The problem here is to force people to create #AI, even there is no real usecase.

It is a solution searching for a problem. You need the opposite.

#AIwashing is already a strateging provoked by this mess

700 inżynierów z Indii udawało chatboty – historia upadku Builder.ai

Builder.ai, startup z Londynu wspierany przez Microsoft i wyceniony na 1,5 miliarda dolarów, ogłosił bankructwo po ujawnieniu, że jego platforma „napędzana sztuczną inteligencją” była w rzeczywistości obsługiwana przez około 700 inżynierów z Indii udających chatboty. Sprawa ta jest obecnie określana jako jeden z największych przypadków tzw. „AI washing” w historii...

Then its possible to get money by #AIwashing anything you need.
That's great. If nobody knows what they are doing, we can define the content as we need it and do what we want.

@peter I call this #AIwashing. They don't even make any substantive use of the technology. They just use it as a subterfuge to conceal, or a rationalization to justify, some disgustingly evil thing they wanted to do regardless of AI, and could have done without AI — just not as sneakily.

When the AI bubble bursts garymarcus.substack.com/p/five … The hype around generative AI (and by extension, AI) is starting to fade, but many politicians have invested much in it financially, reputationally and politically with grand statements about its impact on public services and the economy. So how are civil servants going to advise them when the bubble finally bursts and there’s some back-tracking to do? On Tuesday 6 August in my blog here thorneyisle.weebly.com/blog/ye I ran through a few tried and tested methods of finessing away any unfortunate over-expectation that may have been raised. It linked to an article on “AI washing” — resorting to labelling anything and everything “AI” www-cio-com.cdn.ampproject.org. Then the following morning, 7 August, in one of those gloriously unexpected moments of perfect timing, this popped up gov.uk/government/news/ai-to-r . Joy unbounded.

What is 'AI washing' and why is it a problem?

I believe some of it is opportunistic. The other side is the tech industry is trying to desensitize the population so they can push more AI into our daily lives, probably not for the better. bbc.com/news/articles/c9xx8122 #AI #aiwashing

What is 'AI washing' and why is it a problem? bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c9xx81 - not to mention the companies that pass themselves off as AI experts when in reality they have no technological expertise #AIwashing

People start to brand their projects as #AI to get corporate funding. #AIwashing is the new trend

That weird feeling when you chat with an exec and they are rambling on about AI.... it's been named:

"AI washing is harmful because it has the potential to turn artificial intelligence into just a meaningless buzzword." #AIWashing

"Every #IT vendor has to have a story around AI this year, but they don't necessarily need to have a product."

Spot on! #AI is driving a lot of IT spending - and a lot of #AIWashing - but new a report finds more behind the #technology #budget outlook.

Before AI has even started revolutionizing how we do things, employers are already yelling “be thankful that we didn’t replace you with ChatGPT!” to shut down demands from employees that increasingly dare to question the status quo. #AI #AIWashing
