it's always been a dream of companies to not need computer engineers also, most companies are selling AI related tools - so when they say they won't hire or will replace devs, it's purely marketing anyway, I guess it's time to leave this sub, 99% posts about "AI replacing devs"

I don't think exposure to ChatGPT is the issue. The fact that he left his 4YO unsupervised for 2 hours talking to the screen is wild to me.

Yeah, this was the point. I would also go into how rugged individualism and "bootstrap mentality" has been a problem in America for a while now, and society seems built on capitalist and ableist standards for "self-sufficient human being" that punish people for not being able to completely provide for themselves. That would be a much longer post though, but there are just so many reasons why peop…

it doesn't do this. i know paralegals who are avoiding AI as much asthey can because mistakes, even minor ones, can cause big risks. the AI isn't "Smart" and no prompt you give it is truly going to do what people imagine it's doing. the potential for risk is too big that it imagines some good sounding train of thought

Tbf, this is not Disney's first IP related lawsuit against an AI platform. https://share.google/xcQ5DRtMQh4GU5nAq And courts in the US require you to show you were harmed in order to sue, so while you're right that they only care when it hurts them, they also only can sue when it hurts them.

As far as I can tell it all goes back to the switch to engagement algorithms and the rage economy. A whole swathe of the worst kind of people saw that as an opportunity for themselves, regardless of consequences, and now we're locked into an information environment which is toxic, destroying our societies, and getting worse almost daily.

Plot twist, AGI was already achieved, Altman asked it how to make a profit with ChatGPT and it told him money shouldn’t be the motive and to better the life of all people, so he killed it.

Serious question: aren't all of the models just as bad and in bed with the US government? Claude had a gov contract for "national security tasks" so we know they will hand over all of your data if given the chance. Isn't it time to just revolt against all of it?

Freelance reviewer used LLM to write review without disclosing it. The review contained parts of another review by a The Guardian. The NY times does not want to plagiarize other journals and is most likely unhappy to be paying a fee to a reviewer that likely doesn't actually review and doesn't write his own material.

Self driving cars need very little modification. There have been numerous terrorist incidents where the attacker just drove a truck.

Unfortunately LLMs have hit software engineering like heroin in an ex coal town. It’s so, so fucking tempting to have Claude shit out something that’s sort of basically correct, and not really scrutinize it that much, and slowly the entire codebase becomes a stranger until everything implodes. It’s fascinating.

I know two acquaintances that both have a heavily reliance on ChatGPT approaching psychosis / addiction - one in their 30s, the other in their 50s. One common trait - neither of them respond well to being told no or they can’t / aren’t allowed to do something. They literally fall apart.

It does scan for that. I saw someone talking about this online so grain of salt: The AI catfishers are trying to get around this by adding one weird photo at the end that looks like a strange painting but does have the eyes of the human behind the catfish, enough to satisfy the scanner even though the rest of the photos are fake.

Cool. Now do people who use it for deep fakes, spreading misinformation, and posting themselves as a massiah.

The bigger picture is that the more driverless cars there are the better the overall safety. Therefore, I think ultimately having the car prioritize the passengers inside may improve overall safety by increasing the number of driverless cars.

We often hear that AI automates things. But the real goal for AI could be to empower all those small business owners to leverage data to improve their businesses. This talk really inspires anyone to pursue AI to create an impact on the society.

AI can hand you answers, but only critical thinkers can ask the kinds of questions that turn answers into deeper understanding.

AI has the capability of things we truly can’t imagine. I can smell the fear.

Watching from Ukraine. A very thought-provoking interview. The war is also changing. If you take drones, they need a human operator, but I bet very soon they'll become AI-powered making decisions autonomously. It's scary. But the biggest concern, of course, is AI turning on the human race... Best regards to all. Stay safe. Make good decisions. Peace.

I think you have a lot more reasonable view of where Art as an industry is headed to than many other artists out there. I'm a rare dinosaur, working for a single AAA game studio for the last 20 years, and I've avoided 2 major tsunamis in the industry. The first was the financial crisis of 2008, which was an external event that no one could avoid. But the second one, the advent of outsourcing, wa…
