"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"

A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

Sam Altman says OpenAI wants to sell intelligence like a utility

During a recent appearance at BlackRock in Washington, D.C., OpenAI's Sam Altman, shared his vision for the future of AI. At one point saying, “We see a future where intelligence is a utility, like electricity or water, and people buy it from us on a meter.”

Altman was describing a world where AI becomes a foundational infrastructure, something woven into everyday life so deeply that consumers and businesses simply “plug into” it the same way they rely on electricity, Wi-Fi or running water.

Fascinating. My godfather is a mathematician at a local university, I'll ask him whether this is something he runs into. I've heard him grumble about formatting his work in the past, but usually in the context of using Latex, which I gather is something else entirely.

Yeah LaTeX is a bit different, think about describing a process in MS Word, v.s. writing a program that performs such process on a computer: LaTeX is more like description aimed for human consumption, where as formal proof is more like a program that computers can rigorously execute.

Proof assistant have only attracted the attension of mathematicians very recently, thanks to the organization surrounding MathLib in Lean, and the promption of Terance Tao.

It also rides the AI train quite a bit, as AI have a tendency to confidently be wrong, having a computer to check its proof can be very useful.
