Summary: AI is introducing the third user-interface paradigm in computing history, shifting to a new interaction mechanism where users tell the computer what they want, not how to do it — thus reversing the locus of control.

…me, salty Kuhn fan will add that “this is not a paradigm shift, it is just a new thing.”

It’s also important for journalists to ask what metric the company is using to evaluate the model—and whether that is the right one to use. A useful question to consider is whether a false positive or false negative is worse. For example, in a cancer screening tool, a false positive may result in people getting an unnecessary test, while a false negative might result in missing a tumor in its early stage when it is treatable.
