The Gen AI machines are not new but are still in their infancy. The problem, as I see it, is NOOBs are thinking they can now tap into nirvana and miraculously dispense perfection. Not knowing what they seek is way down the road. How do you get to nirvana? How do you guarantee that Gen AI is accurate? Will it ever be?
I think the fact that they elected to use the word hallucinations is telling.

Here are two OLD references to AI work initiated by IBM.

Supercomputing leader IBM Corp. on Friday announced that it has begun assembling a colossal supercomputer called Blue Sky for The National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR), in Boulder, Colorado.
Capable of predicting atmospheric climate changes, heating oil prices, and global warming, Blue Sky will be equipped with IBM’s eLiza technology by the end of next year. The goal of IBM’s eLiza program is to give a computer the ability to repair itself, and keep itself running without human intervention.
The first stage of Blue Sky’s assembly at NCAR, code-named “Black Forest,” will line up over 300 IBM SP Supercomputers to deliver computing power equal to 2 trillion calculations per second, according to Peter Ungaro, the vice-president of high performance computing at IBM.
