Meanwhile, kids are drawing on mustaches to bypass it. Fucking idiots.


The other day I tried to pull up driving directions hands free, something I have been able to do for like TEN YEARS, and Gemini tells me it can’t. It tells me I should use the maps app.
Fuck Google!


This sort of bullshit is why I am happy to ride a bike.


Yes, I can see that.
The “AI” that we have now is not actually AI, that’s just a marketing term. Actual experts (read: Not people like Sam Altman) point out that LLMs are severely flawed and will always return bad information. This problem is baked into the way these models function. Making what we’ve got into actual AI like you said isn’t going to happen, full stop.
Don’t believe the horseshit you hear from people trying to sell something.


The irony of your response is strong. Also, you DID say that:
I view AGI as inevitable became it’s the natural end goal of us incrementally improving our AI systems over a long enough period of time. As with all human-created technology, we will keep improving it. It doesn’t matter how slow the process is - as long as we keep heading in that direction, we will eventually reach the destination. The only things that could stop us, as far as I can see, are either destroying ourselves some other way before we get there or substrate independence - meaning general intelligence simply cannot be created without our biological wetware. I however see no reason to assume that, since human brains are made of matter just like computers are and I don’t think there’s anything supernatural about intelligence.
It sounds like you’ve bought into techbro bullshit, but don’t realize it.


Why wouldn’t I? It’s pretty fucking important! Why would you take exception to that? I also think it’s weird you assumed what conclusion I was jumping to.


I never took what you wrote to mean that, but I am deeply skeptical that they can successfully elminiate hallucinations to the point that “AI” can be trusted to given correct results.


I remain deeply skeptical.
Either way, it uses a ridiculous amount of power and comes at great environmental cost.


All AI is undercooked: Errors are baked into LLMs and there is no viable solution to prevent the mistakes and outright bullshit they produce other than to assume it fucked up and pay an actual expert manually check literally everything it does.


You have a deep and abiding hatred of functional operating systems?


Well that sounds just fucking awful!


Horseshit.


Cut ties huh? Isn’t he their main VC investor?
I use free stuff like tubi and roku


I think the point is: They seem to be taking one seriously and the other not.
