I don't know how we can push against these bots, they are everywhere.


#1 - stop taking Uber. There’s a local cab company in your area. Start using them.

AI is developed and trained by tech bros which is why they always end up spouting Nazi ideals and racial prejudice.

My unpopular opinion: a lot of this current AI hysteria will turn out to be hype.

I agree. They are annoying.


This X1000000. They are doing their job. It’s like getting mad at the teachers union for advocating for more pay rather than smaller class sizes. It’s a labor union not a student union, that’s their job! I do blame the media though. Now more than ever we need good solid journalism. Journalism backed by an office full of researchers and fact checkers. Journalism today is simply taking whatever PR spin is handed to them and rewording it.

Let’s talk about where AI actually is at now. Let’s talk about model collapse and the perils of recursive training. Let’s talk about resource consumption! What needs to be invented or optimized to achieve the resource requirements. Let’s talk about data ownership rights. Let’s talk about what actual problems AI can tackle that were previous bottlenecks. So many things to report on but they don’t come in a tech talk or pr brief.


It's out there, you won't find it on the main news sites though. The Information is alright, but expensive. And this guy: https://www.wheresyoured.at/

I am a data analyst and write a lot of code because my company doesn't have a code base (red flags I know). In my job AI has been extremely useful. I use GitHub copilot and it's amazing. Once you know how to do proper prompt, it significantly increases your productivity.

Having said that don't believe Weirdo Altman or crazy Zuch when they tell you AI will be smarter than humans. That will never happen. What will happen though is that AI will help us unleash our own capabilities..humans are incredibly intelligent and only a portion of our intelligence is being used.

What’s the funniest is that there’s no such thing as AI in the world yet.

AI Sounds cooler than large language models. Or machine learning.

But the technology hasn’t even gotten to the point that we have AI

I don’t think it’s entirely bad for AI to increase. However I’m skeptical given I haven’t had any real or positive experiences in my personal life. I use chat gpt but it functions for me as a better search engine.

I’m always a bit suspicious of anything that is hyped up by the media and feel that a lot of transformative changes happen slowly and a bit under the radar.

But AI has been around for a long time though. The difference now is that we have microprocessors specific for AI applications. Some jobs were going to disappear regardless of AI. For example, travel agents disappeared long before AI.


My family of 6 still literally uses a travel agent at a brick and mortar location. I know that a lot of them went away, but good ones are still valuable. will be the same in every field I suppose.


Some people will always survive no matter what.

I so agree with the ‘makes you dumber’ aspect.
