How Does AI ‘Think’? We Are Only Starting to Understand That

You can’t go very far in Silicon Valley without hitting an “AI for X” startup. AI for enterprise tech. AI for medicine. AI for dating. And on and on.

Some of these startups, no doubt, are pure marketing hype. But even most of the others are simply applying existing AI to a given category of human need or desire—licensing big AI systems from well-capitalized startups and tech giants, such as OpenAI’s ChatGPT, Google’s Bard and Anthropic’s Claude, and applying them to whatever area of human endeavor their founders think hasn’t had enough AI thrown at it yet.
