AI-deation machines?

AI technologies are essentially computational systems and as such fairly well understood. However, from social and cultural perspectives, which necessarily include design activities and outputs, these technologies are poorly understood and have become subject to conjecture, speculation and doublespeak. But there are two primary approaches, probabilistic and deterministic AI with each serve unique functions based on their design and outputs*. Yet AI's long-term impact on, say, education and the labour market is hard to predict because transformative technologies, such as generative AI, take time to become clear with a crucial factor being how humans will accept, adopt and adjust to AI. This, in turn, will be dependent on how long the AI market will continue in its current unregulated form that is creating vast wealth and power inequalities. As to AI-deation machines, real or imagined, design ideation should be considered in this bigger picture bridging technology and ethics. * At a high level, probabilistic AI models uncertainty and provides outcomes based on likelihoods. This means that it doesn’t always offer one definitive answer but instead provides a range of possibilities with associated probabilities. Deterministic AI, on the other hand, is rule-based, designed to yield specific, predictable outcomes without room for variability once given a particular input. https://www.dpadvisors.ca/post/the-basics-of-probabilistic-vs-deterministic-ai-what-you-need-to-know
