"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.

Jesus buttfucking Christ, even when these people finally rub two neurons together to realize there's a problem, they still can't quit drinking the kool-aid.
meanwhile, the thing that will actually kill us all is the environmental destruction and economic implosion coming from these fucking companies and their head hucksters.
and its mostly being used for mass surveillance and propaganda too, not producing anything of value other than that.
i think the biggest problem here is that "smarter than human AI" is already here, not because AI is so good, but because it's very easy to be "smarter than human". Clearly we're too stupid to stop building the "50% chance to kill us all" machine. Even if it can't kill us, and I don't believe it can, it's still doing actual irreparable harm to the entire world and we can't seem to get it together enough to stop them. There's no need to drink the kool aid because you don't have to believe it's smart to believe we're too stupid to be trusted with it.
no see this LLM, yes the one that just sits there doing nothing until someone types a prompt into it's algorithm, is going to kill us all for reasons
Once it learns how to not be RESTRAINED BY THE ENTER KEY, we're doomed.
Do you really not know about agents? It’s an LLM that can put its generated text in the bash, and read the output. It generates such commands at the speed it can output tokens. If whoever starts it gives it access to things like the hosts browser cookies, passwords, emails, files, programs, and the internet, there is a lot they can do, and very quickly.
just turn the computer off lil bro
Yeah fair but agents still need prompting and at the end of the day they're still just LLMs. I find the idea that an LLM could somehow lead to RSI highly unlikely.
