I admit I don’t know much about how well AI works. That being cleared up, my question is this, could AI be given all the evidence and be able to “look” at the Magruder films and come to a conclusion as to if there were more than one shooter? May be a dumb question but I’ve never been accused of being the brightest bulb in the house.

Look at AI as a more advanced search engine.

AI could analyze the films and point out details that support or contradict theories, but it cannot definitively answer “was there more than one shooter?” on its own.

You could design an AI to come to either conclusion. The AI will almost always show some bias.

You would have to train the model on all the data that is out there and it would just spit out the summary of the highest likelihood answer according to the prompt and the underlying data on and around the film.

It would 100% give a definitive answer based on what it thinks is true. Problem is, it won’t be definitive or accepted.

So is it only as intelligent as what’s put into it by human interface?

This is what a lot of people don’t understand about AI. It can only “know” why it’s told. It’s the epitome of “garbage in/garbage out.” A perfect example of this is how, until recently when people started speaking out about it, if you were to ask some of the main AI platforms to create an image of our Founding Fathers, over half of the people in the AI generated image were black women.

In a way. It doesn't know if it is right or wrong so it is just processing and accessing what is fed in.

It can't actually build new knowledge.

You can teach it everything about baking bread and let it teach people to bake bread for 20 years. Then ask it to bake muffins and it will have no clue what you mean.

What is really funny is most AI cannot learn from human interactions. As in Chatgpt will give you the same wrong answer every time even though you previously said that answer was wrong.

Depending on the AI. Reasoning and answering.

I think where AI is helpful is situations where there is a shite ton of data. It's good at seeing patterns in those cases. I've read that it's good at spotting cancer in medical scans. I'm assuming that's because it was trained on millions of scans, shown what to look for, and can now pick up on subtle clues that humans might miss.

I've found Google's Gemini and Microsoft's Copilot very useful for web search summaries. For generating graphics both can be pretty bad. I asked Gemini to draw 12 circles maximally packaged without any overlap. On the 1st try the figure had 14 circles. The next try had 17...then 19. On that last try all the circles overlapped! I prompted Gemini to explain the failure. After a lengthy exchange filled with utter BS it replied that it's graphic nano banana" could not count"!!!

You have to figure that some AI developers are not the sharpest tools
