What you said doesn’t contradict what I said though. Chat gpt is only as good as the data it’s fed and it can easily be fed wrong data that it will confidently repeat as fact. Yes people are using it for labor but that doesn’t mean it’s smart or self learning. I’m not wrong, you just don’t understand the tech.

And humans can't be fed the wrong data that they confidently repeat as fact?...
I think I understand it just fine given that my original claim was about it being smart enough to replace our intellectual labor, which you've now agreed to, and not that it was either self learning or perfect.

No. You are wrong. Again.
The part of your post that I disagreed with is, and I quote:
>"AI is poised to surpass our intellectual power"
I still disagree with this. It is still a stupid thing for you to have said and has nothing to support it.
I also never said that AI is replacing "intellectual" labor, so whatever point you think you made there is equally stupid.
Funny for someone with rationalist in their name to be so out of their mind over AI

Nothing to support it? I specifically mentioned several fields in which AI is already better than highly educated labor. The qualifications for being a geologist capable of finding new oil reserves is a PHD, the highest level of education that very few laborers ever reach. AI is already better at doing their jobs than they are. That's what was funded first, and now the funding is on mainstream applications, it just hasn't caught up yet.
No, you didn't, I did, and you responded to me ignoring that. That's the context of what I said that you responded to.
Sorry that I'm not historically illiterate I guess.
