People have brought up the topic of AI with the view that they are emphatically opposed to anything with even the slightest hint of AI influence. It's not the thread topic (should maybe start one), but my thoughts are: have you heard of Ludittes?

I am familiar with the Luddites.  I am suspicious of AI because it gives too many wrong answers.  I am familiar with the general location where I live, and asked about the address of a new business in the area.  It said the location was such-and-such, then added two descriptors which were wrong, including saying the new address was right behind the county courthouse -- which would have moved the courthouse 10 miles closer to where I live -- and put in on the railroad tracks in the town where the address is!  And I've had other wrong AI answers as well.  Recently a German court said Google is liable for the wrong answers its AI gives, if someone is harmed.

@ReaderPaul you have good reason to be weary, if anyone thinks AI gives you correct information they are mistaken, because it only searches the web and compiles what it finds, and we all know the web is full of crap. Ask a question on a forum and you get everyone's opinion, their prejudices, and more besides, everything except the answer to your question.
