AI is about delegating decision-making to software. Software is becoming better at decision-making because machine learning tools have become better at predicting outcomes and easier than ever to use. In limited, well-defined, contexts (i.e. a lot of work situations) delegation of decision-making to such software can outperform humans.
“I wanted very much to learn to draw, for a reason that I kept to myself: I wanted to convey an emotion I have about the beauty of the world. It’s difficult to describe because it’s an emotion. … It’s a feeling of awe — of scientific awe — which I felt could be communicated through a drawing to someone who had also had that emotion. I could remind him, for a moment, of this feeling about the glories of the universe.” — Feynman discussing the intersection of art and science.
