      A glimpse into the reality that AI has zero understanding of what things actually are, it’s only a machine designed to make really good guesses. So good that it seems eerily “alive” at times, but that’s just because we’re dumber and simpler than we think.

      It doesn’t know what words are in images, it just knows how they’re roughly supposed to look. It’s gotten good at not just guessing a bunch of vaguely “letterish looking stuff” but it still makes mistakes. For now.
