We’ve succeeded in making computers more like humans!
Years ago if you wanted to tell a computer what to do you wrote code it could understand, and it did exactly what you told it to… You had to get it right of course.
Today you just tell a computer what you want by talking to it like a human… and it responds like a human, making mistakes, giving you what you don’t want, or just lying to you.
Is this progress?
