This is what we need AI for. Robots that can independantly handle this type of task that is too dangerous for humans.
Fuck the generative garbage we have now. Work on this stuff instead.
GenAI is getting better and better
Generative AI, as it is being built right now, is a dead-end. It won't get much better than it currently is (markedly worse once the next-gen is forced to scrape data that includes AI generated data) and hallucinations are always going to be the reality for them.
It's why there's this big push over the last couple of years to get these products to market. Not because you're going to corner some burgeoning industry (though the hype definitely is designed to look like that), but because this is a grift now and you have to get the goods while there's still goods to get. Need to recoup those R&D dollars somehow.
That's what they've said about every disruptive technology since the beginning of time.
I'm against it being shoved down our throats at every opportunity for a quick buck, but it's very much an active area of research.
You'd be foolish to think there's no innovation or imlrovements to be made.
