AI is good

What will happen is organizations will simply stop hiring and rely more on AI platforms, and just let normal attrition shrink down their workforce. Almost like a slow drip death.

AI is here and it is going to be phenomenally better within five years. So much so that entire business processes will be converted from human form to machine form.


How will those services be bought?

Where's the economists who think about this stuff?

Different methods of cooling the data center.

My elementary schooler was recently telling me about this. At they’re still teaching them something in school.

I think what the doomsayers are missing is that there is a whole product design challenge to AI that is nontrivial. You could have a model smart enough to take someone’s job, and there’s like a 90% chance that the person who should be deploying the model has no idea how to make the model render the employee obsolete. You can’t just type “go do jack’s job” into a box on a homepage

And a lot of the doomsayers that do not understand the technology cannot detect the difference between interaction with just standard transformer behavior and special purpose TOOLS that are part of the chat bot. That's OK. They will just say AI a lot, maybe as an adjective, noun, and a verb in a series or something.

All of this is like moving sand on a beach with a billion tiny ass nice cream spoons. There is not much nuance to what is going on here at a very high level, just an assload more compute without any regard to efficiency. Same with the bloated software that is being produced and "refactored" that nobody actually understands. Let's see if they land somewhere, or if the rug gets pulled and the whole thing explodes.

One thing is for certain - real human interaction is going to become much more valuable. People will find that out soon enough.

Shitty self-driving cars kill people.

It's not a "tool" when it makes autonomous unpredictable decisions to take actions.



Have you ever tried one? Self driving tech is pretty amazing and often better than human drivers, especially those who cannot drive well, which are plenty

The Pope disagrees with you. He just released a manifesto about the perils of AI.

DP. I loved taking Waymo in SF after a day of drunk shopping. Huge fan! That said, I would never use self-drive in Tesla. Their track record is bad and they don’t have the enormous amount of sensors like Waymo.

I will replace pope leo with an ai but that focuses more balanced less far left views

Tesla's self driving is supervised, e.g. you need to be in your car, you cannot compare this with Waymo business model. There is only a pilot program for Tesla taxis in Austin from what I know. But if you have a self driving feature, it's tremendous help in many situations. Even if you cannot do "drunk shopping"
If you haven't tried it before you wouldn't know. I would not want to buy a car without this feature, at this point if a car cannot self drive feels like ancient technology to me
