RE: AI on Notice

"Standardized groupthink" was a term I used lightly while writing and commenting on this topic.

Early on I was saying this is what could happen. Now I'll say that's what is happening.

Now here's the kicker. The AI search has come a long way. Not perfect; better. I threw that term into search and asked who said it. I was given the name James Surowiecki. So I asked when and was told in 2004 when he published Wisdom of Crowds. So I asked why and was given some key details and a summary that I summarized simply as "garbage in garbage out" while talking about these things way back when.

First time I've heard of that guy and his book. So. "Great minds think alike" or "Standardized groupthink?"

Insert laughter here

And you bring up creativity. For me that's a triggering reminder of how much I miss it. How can I deny AI is causing turbulence in this world when I'm one who felt the nails being driven into the coffin.

Of maybe I should bring back that chaotic mess? My fancy and not-so subtle method of giving this generated world of rigid wannabe perfectionism the middle finger once more?

Nah...
