Chat GPT and AI stuff

Gates and Musk predict that humans will have a much lesser work load in the coming years due to AI. The "Godfather of AI" agrees, and not with utopian results.

While those predictions might sound extreme, they’re not just plausible, they’re likely, said Geoffrey Hinton—the British computer scientist widely known as the “Godfather of AI.” The transition, he warned, could trigger a sweeping economic reshuffling that leaves millions of workers behind.

“It seems very likely to a large number of people that we will get massive unemployment caused by AI,” Hinton said in a recent discussion with Senator Bernie Sanders (I-VT) at Georgetown University.

I would take just millions of workers being displaced. Worried it could be hundreds of millions... But that's a problem for the AI to figure out.

Make sure you use different "voices"!

Give the other ones in my head a chance to be free! 😃

This type of pattern recognition is where these LLM models excel. It’s not intelligence but it’s the basic formation of the whole thing. We get the advertisement for the utopia use cases but are going to devolve to the dystopian path pretty quick. Most of the major players are lifting usage restrictions. OpenAI is moving so far away from its original mission statement it’s unrecognizable. It’s got to feed its monetary burn rate. It’s a big contrast with Anthropic who have draw a line in the sand last week.
 
Yesterday I was playing a word unscramble game. A new set of letters popped up and I was stumped. So I popped them into AI and it returned words but with an A, which wasn’t part of the scramble.

It took several rounds of conversation to get it to stop introducing letters not in the set I pasted in.

So, there’s that.

So AI would suck at Wordle?🤣

The core message.
Anthropic’s AI model produced a tutorial, Marks wrote, explaining AI and changes over the past three months. The resulting 10,000-word essay was so impressive, Marks added, he decided to reprint most of it for his clients in a recap, but he wanted to add some of his own human writing.

“I could have saved myself a lot of time by asking Claude to write this memo,” he wrote, “but I decided not to, because I consider putting words on paper a big part of the fun.”

Marks stressed to clients: “I want to try to communicate the level of awe with which I viewed Claude’s output.” Not only did it read like a personal note that a friend or colleague might have sent, but it psychologically dismantled Marks’ skepticism by using the investor’s own legendary mentors against him. Above all, he said, it was really smart.

“It argued logically, anticipated points I might make in response, injected humor, and bolstered its credibility by candidly acknowledging AI’s limitations, just as I might do,” he said. “I’ve asked AI questions before and gotten answers back, but I’ve never received a personalized explanation like I did in this case.”

Yesterday the NC website used to find your polling place was down in the morning. I asked ChatGPT and got a quick and reasonable answer.

It was incorrect, but it was quick and reasonable.

My joking response to this was deleted by the mods. I said that AI had met a milestone by passing the President in this regard. Not a great joke, but a joke nonetheless. I assume that comment was removed because it was deemed too political. But I think the President being grammar-challenged is accepted by both sides of the aisle and is therefore fair game for teasing, just like Clinton’s womanizing or Bush Jr’s adventures with vocabulary made them the butt of jokes from both the left and the right. Am I wrong?
 
Political jokes often spiral out of bounds. This thread is on the edge of what we allow here, so please keep things as apolitical as manageable.

Not a joke and maybe not political but what happened to Mtn.Devil.91.92.01.10.15 is kind of scary if you run through the possibility (and likely) scenarios. To this day my parents have a tendency to give information they see on the internet more weight even though I’ve been hammer that you can’t trust everything. AI results would probably carry even more weight if they knew how to use it. This isn’t just old people. It’s happening across all ages.
