Fei Peng(@fiigii):Over the past 2 years of AI hype, the biggest mistake I’ve seen is this: many people expect AI to perfectly handle things they themselves don’t understand at all. 以其昏昏，使人昭昭 AI is evolving so quickly that every few months, or even every few weeks, the landscape changes. But one belief of mine has remained constant: AI can only amplify your existing capabilities. What AI progress is really doing is increasing that amplification factor. But if you know absolutely nothing about a field, or have no interest in understanding it, AI will only give you endless chaos.
