I mean this is where we have to disagree, I think there are loads of benefits from the technologies. But capitalism is the wrong motivator… “How can we make money out of this?” don’t make me puke. It should be free for all, to cure cancer, to decipher ancient languages, to model the climate etc.
“AI”, the way everybody uses it today, means “ass-kissing chatbot”. That’s what Jensen means, that’s what Satya means, that’s what the investors think it means, that’s what the people reading scripts on the news mean. Oh, excuse me, I meant to say “super intelligence”.
We have neural nets, machine learning, adaptive systems, automated translation, context completion, all kinds of terms for the stuff that actually does useful stuff.
That’s not what the trillion dollars is getting spent on
There’s no point having a discussions with people like me that are intractable when it comes to the technology and are acutely aware of the USA capitalist ruling class and the atrocities they commit and enable, with people that are unable and unwilling to understand what a model is, and are approaching computer science like a luddite.
The USA capitalists are having you lick their boots when you think that “AI” = ChatGPT. You’re not ‘chatting’ with anything. You, me, and many others, are constantly falling for their marketing shit all the time. Don’t bite!
If you can differentiate between a stack of PS3s that made a ‘super computer’ to try to predict what the weather will be tomorrow and the USA building a datacenter, poisoning your water, denying you electricity, stealing your capital, surveiling you, and influencing your decisions, then we can definitely sit together and use our brains to dismantle the infrastructure of oppression. Your enemy is not ‘conversation simulators’, its capitalism.

How the fuck is an ass kissing chatbot going to help you model the climate?
Not everything is a fucking chat bot.

It’s both, actually.
