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.

    You have to be very careful with such articles. They’re vulnerable to the same AI hype cycles as anything else. And those systems rarely work as well as the people selling them claim they do. Those articles you’re reading are written from the press releases of for-profit companies. The technology is also being used for mass medical fraud.

      Sure, all articles should be read with skepticism.

      It’s not a huge logical leap to go from identifying faces in photos at some confidence level to identifying some diseases in imaging at some confidence level. Your first link mostly talks about the human factor and specifically states that with bad ai models, the radiologist is less effective but with good ai models, the radiologist is more effective which suggests the technology works. That link isn’t commenting on the technology, it’s commenting on the human using it.

      Your last link is talking about people being able to forge medical documents. To be honest, I don’t get the point you’re trying to make. I agree that, like with most technologies, people can use AI nefariously. However, generating a photo with AI to forge a medical document and using AI as an assistive tool to scan medical imaging for diseases are two different applications.

      Sorry FBI, you’ve hacked into the wrong mainframe
