Why not having an archive of exclusively warranties? Emails can be downloaded, indexed and compressed. I agree on keeping archives of old stuff. But emails used as cloud drives are a huge problem for IT and security reasons. A legal folder is better and facilitates backup, encryption and much more accessibility.
When was the last time you had to find a 20 year old email? Share your anecdotes.
Edit: I’m not being snarky, there are legitimate and more functional solutions.
Please archive shit. It’s OK to save old data, but not on the service. There are ways. Even banks, the most obsessive and legally strapped data hoarders keep their 5+ year old data in deep cold storage, away from the active services. 99.9^% of information that old won’t be looked at by anyone.
This has already happened. There was a news article about a police force who used AI to bait groomers. This is further automation in something that’s already being done.
In the world? Me and millions of other people got this info in middle school physics. Sure, maybe we mostly forgot the details by now. But it’s not arcane or ancient knowledge lost to time. It’s in your electricity bill every month. A quick visit to Wikipedia and I got the gist of it back. Every single physicist, engineer, and electrician got this explained again to them.
Awesome, it does great at what it was designed to do. And it even does mediocre at things it was not designed to do. It even does incompetently things that aren’t anywhere in its code? Amazing piece of tech.
It already knows which words are, statistically, more commonly rhymed with each other. From the massive list of training poems. This is what the massive data sets are for. One of the interesting things is that it’s not predicting backwards, exactly. It’s actually mathematically converging on the response text to the prompt, all the words at the same time.
