Opening excerpt (first ~120 words) tap to expand

What does "Good” AI mean?Waqas YounasSep 06, 20261ShareRené Magritte, The Treachery of Images, 1929. (LACMA). Also known as This Is Not a Pipe.The talk about AI is the talk of the town. If you are part of a team that develops software, it’s likely that which AI works and which doesn’t is a topic of some interest to you. We often hear colleagues discuss whether this AI agent is better than that or how good some AI is.In such discussions, however, people may use the word ‘good’ to mean different things. For example, by ‘good’ AI, one could imply one which is reliable in most conditions, or one that is safe or one that is socially beneficial or even morally desirable. These are different claims.

Excerpt limited to ~120 words for fair-use compliance. The full article is at Hacker News (AI / LLM).
