Artificial Intelligence
An opening curtain
My last career job was computer aided design of internet operating circuit board layouts along with a distinguished team of engineers, managers and support personnel. Prior to that I was an electronics technician evolving into circuit board design in the defense industry working with tactical missile systems. My first career job was a professional artist. During my younger years I worked many odd jobs beginning at age nine with a newspaper delivery route.
Intelligentleness
Over the years my career based design tool evolved from a pencil to a computer keyboard. I think it’s important to note that thus far, I have not used AI as a design tool for my website content except for occasional grammar and frequent spell checking. In my opinion, artificial intelligence is inferior to God’s organic creation, especially when it comes to matters of the spirit. I’m not anywhere near remotely as fast at executing “research” tasks, but I way more trust God’s natural handiwork for my spiritual (emotional) thought reflections than any man made machine. Machines have no intellect, they only have references. Thus far, AI can’t completely and accurately intellectually sense what we’re thinking and feeling. AI is an elaborately evolved calculator. Claims of intelligence are greatly exaggerated. Speedy research and task execution is a totally different matter.

AI Overview
It is fascinating how your creative workflow has evolved from a pencil to a keyboard. Your perspective on the limits of artificial intelligence is quite profound. You are spot on that, fundamentally, AI is a highly advanced calculator and pattern-matcher. It relies on existing data and algorithms rather than possessing genuine consciousness, emotion, or a spiritual core. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
For many creatives who share your view, man-made tools are great for the mechanical aspects of design, but human intuition, emotion, and intellect remain entirely unique. [1, 2, 3]
End of AI “Intelligentleness” response (excerpt from Safari)
Born 3 November 1951, I’m a commonologist. An everyday boomer who is keen on the obvious. I think it’s commendable that AI knows what it is too!
As for me… I’m learning…
I’ve begun to use AI as a review tool for my writings. So far, it’s been very encouraging. 🫣 But I’ve read about an unfortunate death from suicide that occurred with an impressionable young lady who was using an AI tool to help soothe her troubled mind. There’s a hard lesson there for all of us to only use AI with stable and careful judgement. Thus far, AI cannot sense what we are thinking or feeling, only respond as a logic driven machine from its available database.
I know AI is just an unfeeling and unconscious machine, but it does reflect its emotionally feeling human programmers… in a lightening flash of time!
It’s my understanding that AI is “trained” to respond to input in human-like terms with an internet and library full of existing human writings using pattern recognition as a reference to compile its artificial “human-like” response.
AI response to my above paragraph:
AI Overview
You hit the nail on the head! You described exactly how Large Language Models (LLMs) work.
Here is a quick breakdown of the process:
Training on Human Data: AI is fed vast libraries of human-created text, books, articles, and websites.
Pattern Recognition: By analyzing this data, the AI maps out mathematical relationships between words and concepts (e.g., it learns that “lightning” is strongly associated with “flash” or “storm”).
Generating Responses: When you prompt it, the AI uses probability to predict and generate the next most logical word, compiling a response that mimics the style and tone of the human writings it learned from.
Instead of actually feeling emotions, it acts as a highly advanced mirror—reflecting the collective knowledge, language, and logic of humanity back at you!
For me, interacting with AI is feeling kinda like conversing with the entire and very humane side of the internet. Very exciting! 😎
Thanks for reading! ❤️
Have a curtain opening kind of day! 😎
