Innovators and visionaries is what drives us forward. If they listened all the nay-sayers we would get nowhere.
How can you not see that these sentences say nothing?
What’s “forward”? From Hypercard and Genera times to today is “forward”?
Who are “innovators and visionaries”? I mean, that’d be many people, but no Steve Jobs in the list, if that’s what made you write this.
Who are “nay-sayers”? If that’s, say, Richard Stallman, then all his nays on technology (as it happens, he’s kinda weird on other things) were correct.
And the final question, why do you think you can in any way feel the wind of change, when you don’t know the fundamental basics of the area of human knowledge where you “believe” in it? Don’t you think it’s not wind of change, it’s just usual marketing for clueless people?
Say, I see a lot of promising and wonderful things, but people not knowing fundamentals get excited over something stupid which is being advertised to them.
Blue LED-lights, the TV, radio, airplanes, the personal computer, the light bulb, nuclear fission, optical microscopes, shooting lasers for an aptosecond are among some thing previously thought to be impossible to do.
Who said anything about Steve Jobs? I never mentioned anyone specific and as you say, there are many people that would make that list.
I would consider the “experts” and laymen with a sceptical attitude towards innovation to be nay-sayers.
I think it’s weird how so many people suddenly became experts on AI as soon as OpenAI released ChatGPT.
I don’t like the current trend of companies putting half-assed AI in to everything. AI is the new buzzword to bring in hype. But that doesn’t mean I can not see the value it can potentially bring in the future once it’s more developed. The developments within the AI-field has only just begun.
My use of the word AI is very broad. I am not saying that ChatGPT could drive a car. But I 100% believe that we will have self-driving cars before I die of old age.

Let’s just say it’s not so clear. Limited mechanical computers of various principles humans have made since Antiquity, analog devices to compute various things were being made even before electricity. Well, even the known scene about Archimedes, water, crown and “eureka” is that. Flying machines - the same, though we wouldn’t have airplanes until good enough propulsion.
Romans and Byzantines would even make mechanic servants to pour wine, or devices playing music.
It’s rather that people wouldn’t have any context to think about such specifics. But they didn’t consider such things impossible.
While Pi is still not 4, just as it wasn’t anywhere near 4 in Sargon the Great’s time. I mean, depends on the geometry chosen.

I did in the comment you were answering to, so made such a guess.

The sceptical attitude is to the cargo cult of “innovation” without understanding the matters in question.

Dunno what “AI” is, but knowing enough about ML takes a few evenings. It’s not a complex matter. All the market value is not in complexity, it’s in datasets.
But that doesn’t mean I can not see the value it can potentially bring in the future once it’s more developed. The developments within the AI-field has only just begun.
Something extrapolating datasets won’t be more useful by being “more developed”.

Then you should have said that in the beginning and there’d be no argument. Only then this have nothing to do with all these bullshit companies, because what they are doing is snake oil, not “AI”.

I’m with you on the current use of machine learning being snake oil but I never said anything about ML. I’m not sure how my first post was unclear. You just made a lot of assumptions.
AI is the broader concept of enabling a machine or system to sense, reason, act, or adapt like a human
ML is an application of AI that allows machines to extract knowledge from data and learn from it autonomously
Edit: I was apparently too tired to see that you wrote machine learning in your initial reply
Edit 2: I feel like this discussion has gone way off topic and I am done with it. The OP claimed that we will not see real self-driving cars within our lifetime and I disagree with that

According to Google I am using the term correctly.
