I genuinely don’t get it. Its a fucking trash chatbot that’s doing perceivably nothing beyond taking jobs away from people?

Like am I an insane outlier here when it comes to AI and robotics? I cant imagine having a fucking robot in my home, let alone one run by an AI. Nor can I understand why the fuck people want their cars to have it in them with the ability to monitor their biometrics.

Maybe I’m just the outlier here, but I genuinely have no interest in the slop machines or their potential clanker bodies and see no use in them.

    Nah, you might just be falling for the same ol’ loudest voices problem. Only absolute morons that care about technology while knowing absolutely nothing about it enjoy “AI”. It is a very small percentage of people that unfortunately happens to include a ton of C-suit morons: Very loud people.

    A lot of the general glazing are chatbots spamming positive engagement on what ever angle the person paying them to astroturf wants. If you think OpenAI’s bot “going rogue” and attacking a competitor was an accident, then you’re being a fool. Someone wanted it to happen and let it. They (the companies trying to make money, not the “AI” itself) are already showing malicious intent, and astroturfing is a lot easier than cyber attacks.

    Though worth noting, there are sects of tech savvy people that like machine learning, and some that even like the generative slop machines, but I differentiate them by what they want from the tool. If they’re a scientist looking to digest some massive data sets? Nice. If they’re some dumbass “indie dev” trying to lazily slop a tech demo out in a language they barely understand with libraries they’d never read, then they can go pound sand.
