Doesn't every company do that these days? My company proudly put "machine learning algorithms" to our product advertisenent, but I know it was just a bunch of if else

2stxff1127yBehold my neural Excel workbook.
It is so full of macros it became selfaware months ago. Now it is holding the company hostage because that workbook contains all our ERP, CRM and HR. I think it even has some pictures of the boss's mistress. We tried replacing it with a cloud based solution, but when the workbook became aware it froze our network traffic and started blackmailing the boss.
Excel is love. Excel is life. All hail Excel overlord. -

2stxff1127y@yendenikhil Used to work in an ERP company. You will not believe the number of companies relying on ridiculous Excel "systems" and/or something thrown together in Visual Basic / MS Access by someone who knew computers back in -96.

@notbot Our product is an API to check if a transaction is a possible fraud or not.
The code would look something like this:
If amount > threshold
Then error = 'amount exceeding limit'
Else if user country != 'usa'
Then error = 'invalid country'
// other else if goes here
How do we setup these conditions? We have a team of analysts to examine our clients business model, past transaction history, country of origin, expected revenue, etc. and they will provide the recommended rules. In the end, it's all manual analysis that makes up the rules, nothing related to "machine learning algirthms" bs -
TwiN2497yThis is so true, there's so many companies out there boasting their superior AI when really, they just made a big switch case.
-
it might be AI you know.
I mean the field of AI is really broad.
even a simple Breadth First Search is considered AI.
many Machine Learning algorithms are just applied statistics and linear regressions. That's still technically AI.
But I get you though.
There's a quote I heard somewhere.
AI is whatever hasn't been done yet. Once we can do it easily we no longer think of it as AI lol. -
The real AI is what's going on in this developer's brain. This definitely can't be real intelligence.
