People who agree that AI art is “art” don’t know what it’s like to be an artist themselves.

I wouldn’t trust ai with my taxes they will prob find a way to evade them

WHATT?? No way that was a robot. That was a human with makeup right? If I’m wrong, that is crazy!!

I'm a software dev. I use AI as a tool but you can really tell when a coworker just blindly relies on it. The mess is insane.

Isn't the combined population of these 5 countries ~ 3 billion? Is it that surprising that almost half the deaths of children under 5 take place in countries with roughly 42% of the worlds population?

I'm glad this got picked up internationally. I teach in South Korea and one of my old bosses was famous for not hiring Australians, Irish, or Scottish because, "English is not their first language."

Just send them all off to MIT to get PhDs in machine learning or quantum physics so that they're ready for the jobs of the future. Or maybe they can ask their families for a small loan, like a million dollars, to start their own business.

This is why the self driving cars should be good enough that they don't need a steering wheel, or they should not be deployed. Nobody is going to be paying attention if they haven't had to touch the wheel in a month. People will become complacent. If I have to hold the steering wheel and watch the road, I might as well actually be driving so I stay engaged and don't fall asleep.

> The company recently launched the first ever commercial self-driving taxi service in nearby Phoenix, with the hope of a much broader roll out in the coming years. I wonder how much they pay the “driver” of their self-driving taxi service compared to normal taxi.

I wonder if these idiots realize that if there was an accident with a self-driving car, they are the only people getting hurt. This is actually great publicity for self-driving cars. They are so good, they even work when the other drivers are intentionally driving them off the road.

My take as an engineer who works in data science/ML - facebook **already owns** 10+ years of photos from their users, and they can already tag faces. It would be much easier for them to query the photos they already own and use that to train, than to spend all the time and money to start a viral campaign to trick users into doing it for them. Why would they do it the hard way? Steps to buil…

I remember through the late 2000s, all the anti-poaching groups were focusing on just 'protecting' the wildlife, frequently didn't carry guns, and were trying to stop poaching by supporting the communities the poachers were coming from. Guess what. It doesn't work. Poachers aren't "desperate", they're just greedy and evil, because it's lucrative work. Turns out, blasting a 7.62mm through someo…

I also look at images to make medical diagnoses (on microscope slides) and I'm a lot more pessimistic about the future of my profession. There's no reason why these additional variables cannot be incorporated into the AI algorithm and inputs. What we do is pattern recognition and I have no doubt that with the exponential advances in AI, computers will soon be able to do it much faster, consistent…

More like industrialized economies of scale. Remember the Aral Sea disaster took place under the watch of the Soviet Union.

Sadly the automation aspect scares not only the higher ups but your coworkers. I started automating things at my job and got told to stop because I could potentially automate someone out of a job. I think that's a reasonable fear, however it's sad that we all have to do busy work to live.

When asked, experts from a wide array of fields tend to say that automation will take over all industries except one: their own. People believe what they want to believe and only time will tell. Sure there are some that we can be confident WILL get replaced, but being confident that something won’t is another matter imo.

Unless you use the bing-infused chat gpt that Microsoft is baking into Microsoft edge, then it shows you search results with chatgpt next to them.

#tl;dr The paper titled "TaskMatrix.AI: Completing Tasks by Connecting Foundation Models with Millions of APIs" focuses on the need for a mechanism that can connect foundation models with millions of APIs for task completion. The authors present their vision of how to build such an ecosystem, explain each key component, and use study cases to illustrate both the feasibility of this vision and th…

Love it! I tried using your prompt and this is what I got. WTF ChatGPT has some work to do on humor! “Two sailors were out at sea when they spotted a rabbit floating in the water. Surprised, they quickly pulled it aboard their ship. One sailor looked at the other and said, "Hey, what do we do with a rabbit in the middle of the ocean?" The second sailor scratched his head and replied, "Well, w…

I’d guess that over the next few years we’ll see chatbots continue to get better and get to the point where it’s almost just as good as talking to a human at a fraction of the cost of a human.
