You're ignoring mass nepotism, mass government corruption, horrific worker exploitation, and more to make a very weird point that we don't even have a lot of great data for.

I don't know why you'd worry. Flying on a Boeing plane carries a 0.00003% increased risk over the next-safest aircraft, and both are virtually entirely harmless if you're in the Western world. Almost all other issues stem from poor piloting or poor maintenance/operations. It's insane that this negative media hype has people genuinely concerned about flying again (not that you're genuinely concerned, but it's out there all over social media, and some people have started changing planes if they can). More aisle seats for me, I guess?

0.00003% increased risk when flying Boeing. Literally irrelevant. Go fly and stop listening to the internet. That saying "touch grass" doesn't exist to cyberbully aimlessly. It exists because the internet is loaded with people who genuinely don't get out much and do not speak accurately about the real world outside.

It’s coming down to PROFIT over risk. For example a large firm buys a business, executives are told to cut the nuts out of everything, materials, seasoned employees, etc. Previous material cost was $250k now it’s $200k, had 40 employees that took pride in their work @ $26hr. Those are gone and now you have a steady stream of 28 employees at $19hr who try to mean well, but get pushed to their limits end up becoming disgruntled and don’t give a shit

The **intelligent** component of AI is just human intelligence — plagiarised.

When Suno makes music it’s just copying the brilliance of humans and passing it off as its own creation. When you dig down into these large language models it’s just billions of people’s work being syphoned off for some dickhead company’s profit. They’re literally stealing our work without any compensation, royalty, or credit otherwise and our lawmakers are too feeble or corrupted to stop them from making everyone poor through job losses.

It’s a fallacy to assume the past is an indication of the future in such a basic way. However, in general, but particularly with tech, as tech tends to bring about innovations that converge in an eventual ideal form. AI, both narrow and AGI, seem to be exhibiting that pattern. So if you are going to invoke that argument, then the scope of time is relevant. If you zoom in too myopically your stance seems correct. If you look at the pattern over thousands or tens of thousands of years you are wrong.

This just shows a bad grasp on what AI is. Which is somewhat understandable because its overused and everything is basically AI. Calling it a hype based on some GPT usage is ignorant though. You say LLMs while the article says AI. But there is a lot more going on than just LLMs. Look towards Alphafold and other medicinal appliances of AIs amongst many real life uses. Issue with the article and your own commentary is that you base it on using GPT and not being aware of the development going on in the field. Concepts as self play alone can potentially be big drivers. Calling regular scripts and algos AI is hurting the cause sure, but AI is much more than LLMs. Its been in development for decades, GPT has popularized it. There is hype of course, but it also has a ton of substance.

But sometimes it does a good job at auto complete. For example I was gonna do a test assert with some weird array offsets and math and it did all that for me in one auto complete. But for the most part I can't tell it to do anything specific then it just hallucinates weird shit that no one would code. It also loves repeating itself writing the same stuff over and over again.

u/Chicano_Ducky I am not sure what you mean by not being able to reply when blocked because I certainly don't have you blocked. And here is the [proof](https://imgur.com/mmgNpMi). But back onto the point of my response. He was in fact correct in saying that the field of medicine is applying AI technologies to great effect. [Here](https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10302550/table/tbl0030/?report=objectonly) are some examples. [Here](https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10302550/) is the whole paper in case you are interested. But this is not the only place where AI tech is being used to great effect. It has been applied to Astronomy and cosmology to yield results that would otherwise be unlikely at best. Through [digital sky surveys](https://www.sdss.org/), applications of ML(Machine Learning) to searching for gravitational lensing, ML applications for estimating of photometric redshifts and more. These programs drastically save time for researchers and progress the fields of their respective sciences at speeds otherwise unattainable. While I get that you didn't say anything about Astronomy. You did say a lot about the medical AI area. And I am hoping that you should now understand that you were simply unaware of the many applications that it CURRENTLY has in those fields. I understand hating on the current trendy LLM's. But everyone should at least get educated on the actual useful projects before they start saying "AI as a concept is bad because _insert company here_ is cutting corners".

The race of AI is to be the first to create something that can automate a massive job fully in any sector and dominate that space. This isn't an if it's a when. If the hype is telling you it's today, sure it's hype, but if the hype is telling you 5-10 years it's probably not hype. I'm a software engineer for 12 years and I already see the new juniors being left behind as they don't get to do critical thinking of code anymore with the AI assistance just giving them working solutions and pump out generic garbage. Writing is on the wall my job will disappear, I'm just hoping it's close to retirement and not in 5-10 years, AI experts want me to believe it's 5 years. Everyone should have a plan for a career transition should your job be automated before retirement, if you are in a target field. My plan is to either have a business and use he AI or become a sparky.

>The current form of AI cannot work without ingesting massive amounts of data, and that data has to come from somewhere. And? That still doesn't mean it's plagiarism in the way you're claiming. >It cannot produce novel works. This is highly debatable. Hell, it's philosophically debatable whether humans can create a fully original idea. >It’s generously the equivalent of giving someone a book and a pair of scissors and asking them to make a new story by cutting out sentences and gluing them back together in a different order. Amazingly, even that overstates the creativity “AI” is capable of. You legitimately do not understand how generative AI works based on this example. >“AI” evangelists love to claim that this is no different than a human finding inspiration in other works of art, but it ignores the fact that a child can draw a picture without ever seeing other works of art first. “AI” cannot. It needs existing material as a starting point from which to plagiarize. Well sure, because a child has eyeballs and other senses to take in information to recreate. A blind human wouldn't be able to accurately draw a sunset either. I'm not sure how or why you think this is some kind of gotcha. Almost anything creative requires some kind of input or starting point. >It’s literally bitcoin all over again, with the same contingent of tech bros explaining that the blockchain is going to revolutionize finance and banking, followed by every other facet of life.

That’s because AI isn’t anywhere close to being actually intelligent and it’s not clear that we’re actually capable of designing an actually intelligent AI given that we don’t really understand intelligence in living creatures. I’ve been saying this for years and everyone disagrees. Tesla has failed with self-driving because they underestimated how intelligent the average human actually is. The only company making full self-driving work is Waymo who actually only operates in areas they’ve fully mapped aka it’s not AI it’s just a fancy train on tracks. The industry has all but explicitly admitted they vastly underestimated the problem. Since AI isn’t actually sentient much less sapient, it can’t create. It just steals from humans, jumbles the content it stole, and presents it as “original”. That’s why AI “images” are so obviously AI images and AI articles are so poorly written. It has no fucking clue what anything even is so it’s just an advanced copier. We have not created anything even remotely resembling an artificial intelligence. We’ve just created more complex basic machines that combine the capabilities of lower tech basic machines. There is no AI and there never has been. And the real threat is AI companies lying about the capabilities of their products to people who put it in charge of our most essential things because they don’t know any better and/or are greedy as fuck. AI WILL crash the stock market in the next 10 years, for example. It’s guaranteed. High frequency algorithmic trading already crashed the market in the 80s. We’re gonna do it again because we’re fucking idiots, the lot of us. Again, there is no AI and it’s very possible there never will be. Sapience is a helluva a lot more than just doing lots of things quickly and a real AI is gonna need sapience.

Of course, AI is a false god because there are ***NO REAL GODS***. The hype is real because AI finally exist and it has been improving with time.

Oh god, same. I was trying to comp the word ‘comfy’ as if it were made of pillows. Any human reading this can instantly picture this in their mind. Not AI. It’s all hype, just like the metaverse.

AI is dumber than a child still and will never be much smarter. It doesn't understand the info it gives you so it will always make mistakes.
