I paint and I asked ChatGPT to give me hints on how to improve my art. Loaded up a photo of my painting of the golf course at Alamanda.

A relative has written a story but in difficult, convoluted language - it’s hard to read - and I asked DeepSeek to translate it into simpler English. I tested this on one paragraph. Very nicely and readably translated. Then I asked DeepSeek to translate it into Spanish and French. DeepSeek did a wonderful job, no editing required. Both of these AIs are free apps on my iPhone.

And the code (at least mostly for DeepSeek) is public - anyone can build on it like when Pythagoras shared his theorem, or Einstein his formula for the speed of light. And now Sam Altman is consider doing something similar for ChatGPT. For me, this is really an exciting time to be alive.
Excellent points. I think the majority of posters on this thread, are confusing what AI really is. Customer Service bots, are like comparing a 1961 Chevy Impala, to a 2025 Lexus. True AI is leap years ahead of the bots you get on the telephone or CS Chat.

My daughter's job requires huge amounts of time, writing memos and emails, that are disseminated to 100's of diverse people ... she uses AI all day to help with her work load. I've used it for letters and memos and it's amazing.

We all see wonderful photographs, posted daily on all sorts of social media sites. There's not a "real photo" to be found. They've all been manipulated by the myriad of filers and enhancers, available on everyone's phone. AI offers that same sort of improvement for writers, speakers, researchers and just about anything or anyone.

There will inherently be "biases", but that's true of every written or spoken work ... or research or conclusion.

For years it's been, "I read it on the Internet, so it must be true". Now it's becoming "AI told me, so it must be true". The truly intelligent people, will be the ones that can sort through facts (however accumulated) and come up with the correct interpretation and application of the facts.
