Wait so I give a technical anecdote and then a non technical anecdote and now I'm told the non technical one doesn't pertain to your technical application? You doing okay over there?

It's not a technical anecdote.

It's just an example of the problem with the technology. Why do you presume that the end result of all of that is anything remotely technical? The end result of all of that is a really complicated and boring subject matter to mostly do with how you build roads, it involves computers but the end result isn't computers.

Your problem is you have a certain idea of what AI is and what it can be used for and you forget that that doesn't apply to the whole universe.

I was able to understand some really poorly documented code just today in a few minutes using it instead of hours it would take to dig through it

This is a technical anecdote. What is wrong with you?
