We don't even know what's coming. Could be the Golden Age of Meme, or the Apocalypse.

The apocalypse followed by the Age of Memes, followed by the apocalypse, followed by the Age of Memes again.

Could they build an AI that helps them not push broken Windows 11 updates to the general public? Or maybe they shouldn't hire their testers on Fiverr

Pretty safe bet. Every year for the last 10 years has been the most exciting year that the AI community has ever seen.

The newest iPhone is the most powerful one yet, the next generation of Nvidia gfx is going to push more fps than the last, and also water is wet.

ChatGPT says water isnt wet. "Wetness is a property and individual properties dont change. Therefor water can both be wet and not wet."

I caught chatgpt lying intentionally. When I asked it if it could lie, it said no. When I pointed out to it that it lied, it basically told me that the like was for my benefit. Terrifying..

Yea when in a conundrum, chatgpt is designed to bullshit. Its one of its flaws for now.

The tech giants are starting to scare me more. They’ve gathered and purchased tons of quality data, and this data is perhaps appreciating in value as ML techniques improve.

Interesting conversation with Kevin Scott, Microsoft CTO, who’s quite the AI/large language models proponent.

From the article:

> Artificial intelligence systems powered by large language models today are transforming how people work and create, from generating lines of code for software developers to sketches for graphic designers.

> Kevin Scott, Microsoft’s chief technology officer, expects these AI systems to continue to grow in sophistication and scale—from helping address global challenges such as climate change and childhood education to revolutionizing fields from healthcare and law to materials science and science fiction.

> I think with some confidence I can say that 2023 is going to be the most exciting year that the AI community has ever had. And I say that after really, genuinely believing that 2022 was the most exciting year that we’d ever had. The pace of innovation just keeps rolling in at a fast clip.

It's a fair argument, and not just because of how fast this year was in terms of major model drops - public funding in AI research is finally starting, and unlike other areas of tech AI continued to accrete investment this last year, all while having people join it en masse.

Bring on the machine apocalypse! Anything is better than listening to shit about Donald Trump and MAGA dumb asses day after day.

Dog, why do you listen about them? Also, what sources give non voluntary information about them? Someone on your house watches tv with high volume?

AI: *Just gets started*
Some guy: "the next year tho? EVEN MORE AI STUFF man so exciting!"

is this not like the safest prediction ever?

It should be, but the pessimistic people think the current state of AI is as good as it can possibly be. They think because it can't replace a human it's completely worthless.

i dont think technology moves completely linearly and maybe he means the past 5 years combined will look like nothing compared to 2023

Orc_ t1_izmp8yu wrote

Yes I've said this before. 2023 is the year of the AI.

Buckle up

it's dawned on me that some ai will be good, it won't all be bad, like how most humans are good, most ai will probably be good, the good ai will protect us from the bad ai, i think we can be optimistic about the AI future, it will be like a god that can cure us of our ills, and solve our problems, as long we're subserviant, and obey its will it will protect us from harm, grant us eternal happiness, eternal life, and eternal salvation,

I believe we are very quickly heading towards a world where many, if not most white collar jobs are going to be replaced.

Which is scary enough. Does it also remove the incentive for human beings to pursue difficult intellectual endeavors?

We do all know that Microsoft pretty much owns ChatGpt, right?

I'm optimistic, but also realistic

The tech doesn't live up to the hype, and for every good use that is found for it, some asshole will invent a bad use

The key to success will be some sort of self-correction scheme

You know, I thought it was always overhyped myself until probably this year. Have you tried out chatgpt at all? Truly mind-blowing technology. And all the AI generated art. It really does feel like suddenly in just the past year AI has just taken off at an unbelievable pace.

Doesn't live up to the hype? Have you been living in a cave this year? People are going batshit crazy over all the recent AI advancements. First it was DALLE2, then Midjourney and Stable Diffusion, now we have ChatGPT that reached 1 million users in 5 days, faster than Google, Facebook, Instagram, you name it.

yaosio t1_izliuzb wrote

It does live up to the hype, but people are picking up a hammer and declaring it to be a failure because it can't be used to to screw in screws. It's a ball peen hammer, very delicate like me, but new hammers are coming.

2023 is going to be a great year for disingenuous big data pretending to have anything to do with AI
