This tweet by Scott Manley a few weeks ago keeps coming to my mind… Mostly because it is exactly my thinking. Of course I use AI tools, I have worked too hard to get where I am today to not use them.
Do I trust without question that which comes out of AI, HELL NO! See previous point about having worked too hard to get to where I am today. Which I will note that it is because of my experience that I can detect AI going rogue. It is because of my experience that I can express in the prompt the key important systems-design criteria. It is because of my experience that I define test benchmarks before starting to develop something.
Do I think that AI could kill us all? Well, I have read plenty of science fiction, so I have the background. This worry is also a reason that I use AI, so that I can understand the tool. I do more than just understand, I write about controlling AI, and monitoring AI.
Some blog articles:
AI is neither good nor bad; it is a tool. When AI does something bad, the tool just did what the human/organization asked it to do. So, anything bad or good that AI does is not the responsibility of AI, but the human or organization that used the AI tool.
