Thanks. Really appreciate your comments. It opens some perspectives I haven't considered and gives more things to think about regarding this. I'll digest it and update the content based on your observations!
I guess it's because LLM does not understand the meaning as you understand what you read or thought. LLMs are machines that modulate hierarchical positions, ordering the placement of a-signifying sign without a clue of the meaning of what they ordered (that's why machine can hallucinate :they don't have a sense of what they express)
Sure. And I'am pretty much convinced that we'll have more and more tools to build things from plain language. These tools will have some extended questions to grasp what really are the user's intentions.
see my answer below.I guess it's not quite the same thing. Self-service checkouts are just a way to buy your groceries — same with online shops. In both cases, the human is (or was) mainly there to help sell a product, not to deliver a service in the proper sense. Sure, you could argue that it’s still a form of service, but the core business of a company like Walmart isn’t about providing human services — it’s about selling goods.
What you’re referring to is the difference between automation — following the rules — and autonomy — having the ability to break or adapt them. A traditional machine just follows instructions. It doesn’t make decisions on its own. But from what I understand, AI agents can show a certain level of autonomy. They don’t just execute predefined steps; they can adjust, prioritize, even improvise within a given framework.
Sure, but once the solution is built, why would a company keep paying someone externally just to watch/control it? Won’t the future be about having an AI agent that can be fine-tuned to your company’s needs through natural language?"
Yes, but it's not exactly the same. Self-service checkouts are just a way to buy your groceries — same with online shops. In those cases, the human is simply involved in selling a product, not delivering a service in itself. What I'm thinking about is an AI agent that actually provides services the way a human would — like doing strategic monitoring, replying to emails, or producing documents as part of an AI-enabled workflow."
