AI is a great way for executives to avoid responsibility for anything. "The accident was no one's fault that you can prove everyone was just following the legally compliant process" but add "and all the decisions were made by The Ay Eye, so who are you holding liable?' Kick a cool $1m to the family or w/e I'm going home

One potentially legit use case I'd like to see is an AI for language learners to practice speaking with. It doesn't matter if it hallucinates since the content of the conversations is irrelevant. But if nothing else, GPT is pretty good at being grammatically correct. Of course I'll probably have to wait a few years while the industry makes a billion useless products first.

About 15 years ago I visited Toyota's headquarters in the city of, er, Toyota in Aichi Prefecture. I got a tour of the factory and I was greatly impressed by the robotic assembly line and just-in-time logistics systems which were very modern for the time able to handle a number of different vehicle models on the same line, Very cool. At the end of the tour though they presented the most ridiculous and dystopian thing I'd ever seen - a (bolted down) humanoid robot emerged from an enclosure in the middle of the lobby. In one hand it held a trumpet, which it moved to connect with a round mouth-analog aperture in its face, and then it started playing a trumpet song. I have absolutely no recollection of what the song was or how well it was playing. On a large screen in the lobby they showed a video with aspirational future visions for how Toyota would augment and enrich our lives, and apparently that vision involved trumpet playing robots everywhere. One scene had such a robot serenading a romantic japanese couple by a lakeside with Mount Fuji in the background. In another scene a similar trumpet robot was playing at what looked like a scenic town in Italy or Spain. Toyota had just given us a tour with hundreds of actual practical industrial robots performing fast, complex and competent vehicle assembly work and the loving trumpet robot was the thing they wanted us to remember as their pledge for an augmented high tech future. A future in which robots have freed human musicians from the terrible burden of having to play music. The more I see of the generative AI bullshit, the more it completes the picture. None of us be able to enjoy paid creative work.

Just like IoT today, only rich people with nothing but time and money are truly going g to use it as intended. When I did residential IT, lots of wealthy households had bought into all the mesh interconnected smart home poo poo. Same for AI. For us peasants, not so much, and personally, I think that's a good thing.

ChatGPT is a toy and "A.I" is bubble hysteria in the same way NFTs were 3ish years ago. I have no doubt that there are artificial intelligence systems being developed behind the scenes that are impressive - maybe even scary. But some bullshit where you type into a prompt online is keys being jangled in front of your face to make Silicon Valley more money.

AI can actually do things besides exist. NFTs were never going to do anything for anybody people arent going to stop working on AI models anytime soon regardless of whatever bubble exists or even pops

Worf posted:i dont think this is really a good take or comparison tbh There's a difference between actual research work done to advance artificial intelligence and shiny made-for-public-consumption bullshit like ChatGPT. I'm not totally discounting what those models can do; in relatively limited use cases they're fairly impressive. But I'm highly skeptical of the more hysterical claims, like ChatGPT or whatever "replacing writers". People are already getting sick of AI-generated garbage and if I'm not mistaken, these models are already partially "collapsing" because they get fed garbage input and produce garbage output.

It's hard to tell if the collapsing is noteworthy because up until a new foundation is published the models are already collapsing on themselves and only work after a bunch of contract worker Africans hit it with a hammer for 1 cent a swing. The recent hiccups may be dead internet theory or they may just be what happens when you rush change for change sake to a subscriber base before you let your contractors hit it with enough hammers.

I think the funniest thing for me is that when people use AI images, they don't check them for flaws. If you use midjourney there are ways to fix certain things or ways to make better images but most of the people using them don't give a poo poo. They just want an image in roughly the shape they describe and good enough. Who cares if she has 6 fingers or a backwards foot? Nobody looking at it cares anyways I guess.

Of course I'll probably have to wait a few years while the industry makes a billion useless products first. I've been using ChatGPT to speed learn Russian. You can basically tailor your questions to learn exactly what you're currently trying to figure out without having to waste time flipping pages in some stupid book only to get frustrated when it's not even there. ChatGPT is to language learning what Amazon is to shopping malls in that regard. Why waste time looking for something that you probably aren't going to find at the mall or in a book, when you can basically brute-force your way to the exact thing you're looking for from the comfort of your desktop without any effort at all? "Tell me how Russian cases work." "Tell me what every Russian prefix and suffix means." "Tell me about word morphology." edit: proofreading

My workplace brought in an IT consultant that was supposed to be working on remote sensing of urban crop conditions. Basically, a drone would scan a garden in the city and then provide a row by row (or plant by plant) update on health, yield, disease, and other parameters. The consultant looked like Dennis Nedry if he grew a mullet and he starts his presentation by saying, Today, I will be talking about (leans forward, spreads hands and fingers out) AI. Then he leaned back in the chair with his hands folded over his stomach and smiled for a solid 30 seconds of silence before continuing. Needless to say he was hired for about a bajillion dollars because AI, while potential useful, is also a great way to sell a service to idiots.

I don't believe in general AI until we have a case where a computer believes they are right about something and argue the case, be proven wrong - knows they are wrong, but doubles down instead of admitting to it.
