Navigating AI Extremes
Many people have polarized opinions on AI, often swinging between extremes of fear and skepticism or blind faith in its capabilities. There seems to be a consensus that AI models, particularly large language models (LLMs), have both merits and serious limitations. While acknowledging their brittleness and potential harms, maintaining a balanced view on the practical applications and tools they represent is essential.
