One thing that I find truly amazing is just the simple fact that you can now be fuzzy with the input you give a computer, and get something meaningful in return. Like, as someone who grew up learning to code in the 90s it always seemed like science fiction that we'd get to a point where you could give a computer some vague human level instructions and get it more or less do what you want.

You can be fuzzier than a soft fluff of cotton wool. I’ve had incredible success trying to find the name of an old TV show or specific episode using AIs. The hit rate is surprisingly good even when using the vaguest inputs.

“You know, that show in the 80s or 90s… maybe 2000s with the people that… did things and maybe didn’t do things.”

“You might be thinking of episode 11 of season 4 of such and such snow where a key plot element was both doing and not doing things on the penalty of death”

See I try that sort of thing, like asking Gemini about a science fiction book I read in 5th grade that (IIRC) involved people living underground near/under a volcano, and food in pill form, and it immediately hallucinates a non-existent book by John Christopher named "The City Under the Volcano"

Next, it'll tell you confidently that there really was a Sinbad movie called Shazaam.
