    @YourMomsTrashman I’m no expert, but my sense is that you’re probably correct. This seems to me a version of the long-understood GIGO principle in computing (Garbage In, Garbage Out), also a principle in nearly all forensics of any kind. Your output can only be as good as your input.

    Most of our general-use ‘AI’ (scorn quotes intentional) has been trained on an essentially random corpus of any and all content available, including a lot of garbage.

    A purpose-designed system would not be.
