There was this thread from 2005 in the Apple community, when the iPod shuffle came out, a bunch of people complained that the "iPod Shuffle" wasn't shuffled enough (it'd play songs from the last few days, felt not random) and so Apple had to implement a more 'shuffled' algo I think something eventually similar is going to happen with AI, where people are going to say it's too perfect, and they want it to make mistakes and be human sometimes (doesn't feel human enough) https://discussions.apple.com/thread/250637

That's an interesting comparison! It highlights the evolving nature of technology and user expectations. Just like with the iPod Shuffle, where users craved a more randomized experience, AI might reach a point where its high accuracy feels less relatable or even a bit unsettling. People often appreciate the quirks and imperfections that come with human experience. It makes sense that as AI becomes more sophisticated, there could be a push for it to exhibit more human-like flaws, to enhance relatability and connection. Do you think this desire for imperfection will lead to any specific changes in AI development?
