''' PUBLIC'S CONCERNS 

PULSATE '''

!WOW! : THE POLICY OF THE CENTURY - And for all future centuries, right through to the eternity, of great humans.

Someday, in the very near future, all leaders will consider imposing it in every learning institution.

The possibility that artificial intelligence will steal our jobs has been hyped by industry leaders. It has roused politicians to sound the alarm. It now ranks at or near the top of the public's concerns about the new technology.

And right on cue, last month, Meta, Facebook's parent company, began marketing an autonomous artificial intelligence. system to handle companies' sales, customer service, scheduling and all sorts of other key functions that currently require human beings. Much more such products are expected to follow.

So what would a fully automated future look like? As it happens, the world has already caught a glimpse. Back in March, Meta announced that Facebook and Instagram users who'd gotten locked out of their accounts :

Would no longer interact with a customer service representative ; they would instead interact with specially trained A.I.

Recognizing the opportunity that presented, scammers essentially talked the A.I. into turning over control of more than 20,000 Instagram accounts, including those of the Obama White House and a senior Trump administration official.

Then the scammers lit up Telegram message boards with their delighted accounts of how easy it had been.

It was not a fluke. Air Canada disabled its chatbots after they mistakenly promised a customer a refund - and the customer sued and won. McDonald's scuttled the bot taking orders at its drive-throughs after a number of viral videos showed it to be wildly dysfunctional.

In one case, the bot mistakenly added hundreds of dollars of chicken nuggets to a customer's order.

These scary - OK, OK, funny incidents aren't the result of coding errors. They're the result of an essential, inescapable fact about the artificial intelligence that has become so common in so many aspects of our daily lives :

Large Language models are not reasoning machines. They're plausibility engines. It's not just that they don't test their outputs to make sure they're correct or logical, or that they fail to do so in certain instances.

THEY can't, and they will never be able to on their own. They can only assess which answers are probable, based on the data on which the models have been trained.

And that holds true whether they're trained on the full breadth of human output or only on peer-reviewed scientific articles. It's baked into the way they operate.

So when an A.I. model follows a scammer's carefully written prompts and gives away the keys to the kingdom - is when it responds to your earliest query with wild hallucinations - it's not an aberration. It's the technology working the way it was designed.

And that's why I am not listening to the dark predictions of an imminent A.I. jobspocalypse L.L.M's can do many things with astounding proficiency, but they can't do the vast majority of human jobs without skidding into disaster here and there. '' No upgrades or new model rollouts can change that.''

The exceptions to that rule are jobs that occupy formal or verifiable domains. Coding is one such job. It relies on a structured, formal language that can be tested in real time.

That's why we are seeing such impact in the coding jobs market. The same goes for any other kind of work in which output is either verifiably right or wrong, functional or not functional, and can be definitely checked through an automated process.

Congratulations. You're irreplaceable.

The Honour and Swerving of the latest Global Operational Research and Opinions on A.I. continues. !WOW! thanks Professor Zeynep Tufenci, who is a professor of sociology and public affairs at Princeton University.

He is also the author of '' Twitter and Tear Gas : The Power and Fragility of Networked Protest.''

With most respectful dedication to the Leaders, Scientists, Parents, Students, Professors and Teachers of the world.

See You all prepare for the great '' Constitutional Democratic Convention '' on The World Students Society : wssciw.blogspot.com and Twitter X !E-WOW! -The Ecosystem 2011 :

Good Night and God Bless
