It has become impossible to tell managers mesmerised by artificial intelligence that the tools are not, in fact, helpful. So employees just play along with the fiction to keep their jobs, writes our tech columnist
I mean, yes. Linux is an algorithm. The programmes called AI are also still algorithms - they’re still deterministic, just too much of a tangled mess, too complex, for a anyone too realistically break it down step by step.
There are some math problems that cannot be described algorithmically, but because of that they’re also non computable. Uh, some thermodynamics and quantum stuff from what I’ve heard.
If it can run on a computer, its an algorithm. Definitionally.
Great, Linux is an algorithm.
It might be accurate, but it’s also vague enough that it’s a pretty useless definition.
