Are "we" (humankind) creating AI at all? I wouldn't call Stable "Humans have 6~8 fingers per hand" Diffusion and large "potatoes are active, oranges are passive" models "intelligent".

Consider the already degraded thirst for GK or General Knowledge ever since google search became a thing.

Did thirst for general knowledge degrade due to websearch engines? Perhaps I'm an outlier, but I found them to have the opposite effect on me - I look for something, a barely related link pops up, "hey I'm now curious".

Today, a simple google search will tell them the correct answer for the quiz question, why bother with discussing the actual answer, the lore and the facts behind it, etc!

False dichotomy.
