A lot of big corporations have billions of dollars invested in it so it is at bare minimum going to ensure they are going to be powerfully incentivized to boost the monkey-jpeg-buying morons who think it's going to change the world for the foreseeable future much in the same way that IoT is passé and everyone knows that poo poo sucks but every year it gets more difficult to buy a non-"smart" TV or a fridge that doesn't have wifi connectivity and a camera for some goddamn reason yes A Wizard of Goatse fucked around with this message at 13:03 on Mar 11, 2024 |

hot cocoa on the couch posted:people that think that ai is gonna replace hella jobs - remember that most large corporations have an enormously bloated middle management/bureaucracy layer that is staffed almost exclusively by fake job havers which doesnt even need ai to displace them, and yet they are still employed these are the exact guys who are excitedly burbling about how many employees they can lay off rn it's not a speculative thing, a bunch of companies are already mass sacking more or less random positions to replace them with a toy because as far as the executives can tell they look the same and cost a bit less. it's just that outside specific headline-worthy stuff like crisis hotlines replacing people with chatbots that tell people to hurt themselves it's gonna take like a year to see whether it worked out and the proles are indeed obsolete or that was a dumb move and we're going to see a massive economic crash as all those businesses fail at once

Worf posted:Also if we're being honest there's a much bigger shortage of doctors and medical staff then there are for people that can work in a call center lol there's still gonna be a doctor in there somewhere for regulatory reasons but tbh I don't understand what part chatgpt would even play in the traditional 'patient self-diagnoses via WebMD, doctor either rubberstamps self-diagnosis without further examination or accuses patient of drugseeking depending on the weather at the DEA this month' process. presumably the thing isn't sewing up stitches but who the hell knows what people think it can do basically every other job in that list that isn't harassing people with advertising garbage has already been replaced by some kind of self-service automation, why not getting a prescription lmao A Wizard of Goatse fucked around with this message at 15:03 on Mar 11, 2024 |

kntfkr posted:there's nothing wrong with infinite jest!!!! Nor with Green and Tangerine on Red, it is legit beautiful one-on-one in a well-curated space. It's also very easy to see how someone could be in its presence and not become an instant convert to the transformative power of Art, and notable that nobody gets like this about any of the thousands of contemporary living artists working in the same techniques and ideas, producing near-identical paintings for 60 years. Cause it's not really about the painting at all, is it? A Wizard of Goatse fucked around with this message at 19:52 on Mar 22, 2024 |

Basically 100% of chat-based support lines now, and everyone's abruptly shutting down their phone ones or announcing 4+ hour hold times purely coincidentally

Time_pants posted:Does anybody else feel like the entire world is just phoning it in? Especially the people who really, really shouldn't? AI has delivered on only a tiny fraction of its promises (often only partially) and the assumption of delivering the rest is based purely on hype? Years before the AI poo poo I'd regularly interview at companies whose entire business model would turn out to be "outsource all coding work to some Pakistani guy we only know the first name of, retain 2-3 domestic engineers to remove all the malware from whatever comes back, pass it on to fortune 500 clients for $$$$". I'd usually get an offer because their guys missed uhhhhhh a lot of malware but can't imagine where you'd have to be in life to actually accept that offer It's a little sad AI is going to take Ahmed X's job away I imagine selling American sleazeballs garbage represented a way more meaningful amount of money in Karachi than the Bay area A Wizard of Goatse fucked around with this message at 21:53 on May 2, 2024 |

Basically every US business I can think of that seriously attempted to compete on better products, vs. the worst cheapest one possible, went bankrupt years ago so can't blame em lol. You don't sell Americans "good"
