It’s simpler than that - it’s a guessing machine that has superior access to a whole load of information and capacity to process at a speed at which we humans cannot compete.

Does it make it better than us? No because ultimately the thing itself doesn’t ‘know’ right from wrong.

Better according to what standard?

The standard of most employment is already to produce mediocre, plausible outputs as cheaply and rapidly as possible. It's a match made in heaven!
