Machine learning means trouble

I hope any machine-learning tool that comes out will do way better than what Google has managed to accomplish. Theirs are terrible. (Just look at Google search; set your search preferences to prefer more results and the next second they call you a vandal; Gmail’s spam filters have also become so bad they’re worse than useless.) Even if we could create something as good as theirs we’ll be getting so many false positives it’ll be better if there were no tool. Al12si (talk) 01:44, 24 October 2022 (UTC)
