Episode 275. Why AI in Manufacturing? Why not? I explore how new technologies for knowledge work, unlike in manufacturing, create even more busy work distracting us from our real work–thinking, deep work. Looking beyond the hype, AI tools are going to help us do things. We just don’t know exactly what is best. We must play with the tools to find the best ways to help us.
We also need to consider the limits of text-based LLMs. Researcher Yan LeCun has looked at the limits of these technologies. How can they work for things like bringing a robot into the house, for example, when they are limited to digital and text and the environment is analog. Won’t this take a system of models? Not just one model?
Use them, but don’t be awed. Or bamboozled by CEOs.
