look. okay, I’m with you to put an end to AI art. the data centers…
the misuse is out of hand.
but we are assuming no one is using it for a legitimate benefit like to detect or cure cancer and because that one person over there saw some AI art, are we supposed to assume that that is all it is used for?
Starting this dialogue like this is just lack of education and assumes everyone should lack the same education.
It is insulting.
It’s akin to banning disinfectant cuz some people cant put it in a safe area of their house away from their children so you just lazily call it all shit.
It’s a boarish approach to discussion, problems and solutions.
@Smoogs I will add that while it could potentially be used for things like large data sorting (still, we have had ml doing this for decades that no one cared about because again, propaganda), but the bads FARRRRRRRRR outweigh the good in every possible scenario. Timmy gets a generated picture of a giraffe while we face the uprising of a technofascist oligarchy that constantly surveils and makes deepfakes to rid anyone who doesnt worship Dear Leader. You are being surveiled for future “crime”.
I do not disagree. I’m for a far more regulated use of AI. I just think treating every problem with a THING=BAD hammer is an unsophisticated way to follow up on any complex problem that requires some secondary thought.
@Smoogs oh totally. In the end its just a supercomputer , its not impressive, just takes throwing trillions of dollars at something. Humans control it.
If they were publicly owned, transparently managed, powered by green energy, and any profits made from them would go to the nations poorest, I’d be totally behind it!
The sort of AI that reads radiology scans has almost nothing in common with the sort of AI that develops drugs has almost nothing in common with large language models. A key difference is that the first two require orders of magnitude less processing power. If that was all AI was used for, we wouldn’t be claiming people’s houses under eminent domain in order to build beefier power lines for AI datacenters, and the EPA wouldn’t be loosening environmental regulations on power plants devoted exclusively to AI datacenters. We would also be able to afford computer parts.

Your verbal diarrhea is insulting to my eyes, that’s what’s insulting. LLMs != AI and no, they will not develop original ideas.
I’m betting many things are insulting to your eyes dear.
