Why AI writes something that seems like bullshit?

Some people are worrying if AI is making things like the thesis. The fact is that AI can make things that seem very academic and qualified. But the text itself has no sense. Why computer cannot make that thing like humans? 

If we want to make an AI that can find information from the Internet we must select some method that this system uses for selecting the texts that it connects to the document. Using linear programming methodology is almost impossible to create text that is suitable for anything. 

In that model, the system selects a group of texts. And then it starts to connect them to one entirety. The system can put those texts in cerrtain order by putting their hashtags in alphabetical order. 


And then the system can start its operation. The first paragraph is taken from the first text. 


The second one is taken from the second text. And by using this method the system will make nice-looking ten-paragraph text. 

The problem is that the system selects those texts that it connects by using a certain methodology. And one of those methods is that the system selects ten of the top-ranked pages from Google. Or the system can use only hashtags for sorting those pages. 

Because the program itself will not understand what those pages involved, the result might be something else than we want. This is the limit of AI. The AI that understands the text is almost impossible to make. 

We can make the AI that answers our questions and looks very reasonable. When we ask AI what it can do, it can give impressive answers. The AI can say that It's AI and know many things about things like astronomy. The thing that makes AI look very wise is that it has a database of the answers to the most common astronomical questions.

The system might involve details of the most common stars their spectral class etc. It can have information about the birth of the stars, and if somebody asks something about them it simply drives that data to the loudspeaker.


Those databases are like tapes. They involve information that is needed for the answers about astronomy. 

  

 But if somebody asks a question about history or politics, the AI can smply answer that those things belong to some other AI, and the expertise of that AI is astronomy. Then that tape can involve the mention that the AI should stop quite soon because there is limited time. 

That thing seems very complicated. But it's a large group of sound files. When somebody asks the question. Where are words that are linking it with things like Jupiter moons computer will find the Jupiter database? Then the system can ask, would that person want to hear something about all moons? 

Or if a person answers that Galilean moons are interesting. The command activates the Galilean moon databases. 

And the computer can read all three databases one after one. That means the AI might look very smart. But it's nothing more than a series of sound files that are activated by using certain words.

Schrödinger's cat: and the limits of that idea.

"In quantum mechanics, Schrödinger's cat is a thought experiment concerning quantum superposition". (Wikipedia, Schrödinger's cat). But the same thing can use as model for many other thought experiments.  Sooner or later, or at least in the ultimate end of the universe, the Schrödinger's cat will turn into wave movement. The information that this cat involved exists but the cat does not exist in its material form. The information doesn't ever vanish. It just turns its shape.  We are all trapped in the universe and time. The universe is the space that is entirety to us. There are no confirmed other universities. But the multiverse is a logical continuum for the expanding galactic megastructures.  The problem with natural things is this. They are black and white. They exist or do not exist. Could there be something, that exists and not exists at the same time?  Scrödinger's cat is thinking experiment about case their cat is not dead or not alive. But in this...

The string theory offers a new way to calculate Pi.

"Scientists discovered a new series for pi through string theory research, echoing a 15th-century formula by Madhava. By combining Euler-Beta Functions and Feynman Diagrams, they modeled particle interactions efficiently. Credit: SciTechDaily.com" (ScitechDaily, String Theory Unravels New Pi Formula: A Quantum Leap in Mathematics) People normally think that. The pi is the ratio of the circumference circle's circumference to the circle's diameter. The Pi is a mathematical constant 3.14159..., the endless decimal number. The Pi is interesting because developers can use that decimal number to make the encryption algorithms stronger.  The idea is that the encryptions program hides the message's original ASCII numbers by multiplicating those numbers with some decimal number. Or the system can add some numbers to those ASCII numbers.  "Aninda Sinha (left) and Arnab Saha (right). Credit: Manu Y" (ScitechDaily, String Theory Unravels New Pi Formula: A Quantum Le...

There are always more than three actors in the real world.

"An international research team is advancing precision timekeeping by developing a nuclear clock using thorium isotopes and innovative laser methods, potentially transforming our understanding of physical constants and dark matter. (Artist’s concept.) Credit: SciTechDaily.com" (ScitechDaily, Unveiling the Thorium Nuclear Clock and Its Time-Twisting Secrets) From Three-body problem... There are no pure three-body systems in nature. There are always more than three components in the system. For making real three-body systems we must separate those three bodies from the environment. Otherwise, there are stable effects. But nobody can predict some effects like distant supernova explosions or sun eruptions.  And one of those things that affect all bodies is time. When radioactive materials decay. That affects the stability and symmetry of the object.  Energy levels affect the existence of things like neutrons. The thorium atom clocks are next-generation tools for time measurement....
