Someone is going to starve to death because the always online phone home handshake can't connect so their digital can opener is automatically disabled to prevent them opening unauthorised cans of 3rd party baked beans.

Tank treads for landing gear. A rearwards propeller on the top of the rudder. Also the whole thing will look like metal giger human bones.

Chad Sexington posted:I've watched doctors -- specialists even -- Google poo poo right in front of me so I don't fear the AI in that sense. I’m an ER doc and I google stuff all the time. If anything that’s a sign of a good doctor, it means they care enough to figure out what is going on with you and see what can be done, if anything. I’d much rather that as a patient than the docs that just say you have “x” because that’s mostly what this looks like… but not quite. The problem with medicine is it’s mostly shades of grey and uncertainty in a world where people don’t want either. AI will absolutely be used incorrectly and put patients at risk. Healthcare administrators will add another level to their already bloated roster. There are dozens of influences that you need to constantly ignore as a doctor that an AI won’t be able to do. Things like: worrying about being in the room too long because admin wants you seeing 2.5 patients an hour, worrying about what tests to order because they track all the tests you do and call out people who are ordering more than what they consider average, worrying about medication choice because this med is on shortage but it could really benefit this patient, worrying about putting this patient in the hospital because your gut is telling you that they’re sicker than they look but knowing an administrator looking at the chart will demand they be sent home, giving a med because a drug rep wants to make a sales quota, etc etc. AI’s going to happily comply with any directive given to it and we’ll go from a broken system with a few good people trying to keep the wheels on the bus to complete collapse.

yeah a doctor googling stuff shouldn't be a red flag, because at the end of the day that person is still deciding whether or not the thing google is telling them is correct. an LLM can't even do that; it literally cannot decide anyway https://twitter.com/UKLabour/status/1668877078723215361

jemand posted:The lawyer sure was stupid, BUT, I'm actually kinda sympathetic to him. Apparently, the same corporate entity that gates public funding science via exorbitant journal licensing fees ALSO owns & operates the case file access system (with opinions and rulings produced in public courts by publicly funded judges). Law practitioners need this, but unsurprisingly it similarly requires expensive licensing fees to access. GPTIdiot lawyer's firm usually only did state law cases and therefore ONLY PAID FOR STATE ACCESS. He was tasked with finding case law to support a federal case 1) he couldn't argue himself because he wasn't licensed because unfamiliar with the procedures, and 2) in a firm that refused to pay for the proper tools to do so (partly due to highway robbery on the part of the "publishers"). hmm that’s a rather terrifying insight

Jel Shaker posted:hmm that’s a rather terrifying insight It's by far the most terrifying thing about "AI." There are pursuits we busy ourselves in where being wrong can have dire consequences. LLMs don't penalize themselves for incorrectness, no matter how many lives could be affected. The most important thing is to have fluent, readable English and to sound authoritative.

My first reaction is who wants coffee with the mayor of a town in Indiana? Then I realized the people who are likely moving want to feel special and like they can push some idea or agenda on the town.

They need more people to work to take care of them well that town is a suburb of indianapolis the website they did it through has a bunch of offers (mostly from Indiana lol) to move places like lower taxes for a few years or free land. there's a dumpy little town with no one in it in KS that used to give away free land if you moved there (offer is still open). they're on that website. so you can live in a town of 900 people in central kansas which I'm sure will be no culture shock for someone from NYC or LA. also I'm sure you won't have constant snide comments directed towards you if you say you moved from NYC. enjoy driving 40 minutes each way to get groceries!

Cold on a Cob posted:they'll pay property tax and use local services Also, Indiana has (or at lest as of 8 years ago) county taxes. It’s like 1 to 1.5% based on where you live. That’s in addition to the State taxes. But their property taxes tend to be pretty low. At least in NW Indiana. No idea around Indy.

they're doing a version of this in rural japan too, but with different incentives and requirements. stuff like having to fix up the home, pay property tax already in arrears, live in it full time, etc in exchange for getting free land and property.

Pittsburgh Fentanyl Cloud posted:County EIT or county property taxes? County income tax of 1-1.5%, and then there is property tax as well. I think the property tax is capped at either 1 or 2% of assessed value each year. I never lived in Indiana, I just worked there (Hammond, IN) while living in Illinois. So I got to hear about a lot of stuff. And get hit for a .25% Lake County Income Tax because my home county did not charge income tax. Edit: It was great fun to hear about the BP refinery in Whiting (right near Lake Michigan) going to the county (maybe town) and threaten to shut down if taxes were not slashed. The town/county caved, and property taxes in Whiting skyrocketed from like 1-2k to 30k to make up the shortfall. I think that is why Indiana has the cap on property taxes.

FizFashizzle posted:if AI ever does make serious headway into the medical field it will be for poor people without insurance. It will join the likes of chiropractic medicine and aromatherapy; ineffective alternatives for people that are getting hosed over by the system. Fair point. I harbor a tiny shred of naïve optimism that it could improve our lovely healthcare system in some way, but it does certainly feel more likely to be used to milk poor patients without having to interact with them at all.

Of course there are lots of moving parts and it's easy to end up like the chuds who move to Texas not realizing how property taxes work there.

“milk” feels like an imprecise term. Discard or placate feels more accurate? The intention overall is to disenfranchise the lower classes while stripping away education slowly. All services are replaced with hollowed out Fischer Price trash versions while those services are consolidated and improved for the well off. The ultimate goal is to offer the least acceptable but still “present/existing” option. That’s why the wealthy can’t stop cumming over the prospect of replacing everything they can with AI. It’s the optimal system for systematically detaching the bottom 75% from human services. All AI healthcare has to do is give an answer and also get poor people to shut up, first and foremost.
