Artificial Intelligence is here and it’s wonderfulI! Our problems will be solved, efficiencies will be exploited, and you can have any kind of talent at your fingertips. What’s not to like?
Plenty. Have you asked a question on Google and noticed how the AI-generated response lacks accuracy? For example, let’s try a trick question: How many 1970 Dodge Coronet R/Ts were built with the Hemi?
This could have been a trick question because, among all the online resources, one may have U.S.-spec production (236) while the other may use total production (296). As you can see above, the correct number was used, but when the 426 Hemi was thrown in, the wrong answer was given. What’s the correct answer? Out of the 236 U.S.-spec cars, only one was built with the Hemi (this car is MIA). Another Canadian-spec car was built (which would be among the other 60), which is the “FT6” Dark Tan Metallic one that’s been around for over 40 years. And at least one export car, painted “FJ5” Sublime, was built (making at least two out of the 60). In total, there are three known Hemis out of the 296 convertibles built.
It is one thing to use a search engine to generate an answer via AI, but what about the things posted on Facebook, Reddit, or any other social media website? There are many entities (people or otherwise) that have set up profiles and created posts with AI-generated cars and bios. The issue is not so much with AI as it is with nefarious online characters who don’t care about facts—they just want clicks.
In the interest of undermining the onslaught of fake posters, here’s several that we tried—which AI failed spectacularly!
