  • The irony here being

    She's actually not into him. Though it's not so much a "joke" as it is "homicidal theft".

  • Actual AI would be more than "just math", but LLMs aren't AI, so the comparison is moot.

    Now we’ve built a collection of simulated neurons, at a scale close to that of the human brain, and trained it on the entirety of the human language

    We are not even close to anything of the sort. We've got a probability machine that's mostly decent at previous collections of human language. The other two are much farther down the road (if they're even possible) than you or the rest of the tech bros are trying to convince everyone else of.

  • Though commonly reported, Google doesn't consider it a security problem when models make things up

    To be clear, all llms "make things up" with every use - that's their singular function. We need to stop imparting any level of sentience or knowledge onto these programs. At best, it's a waste of time. At worst, it will get somebody killed.

    Also, querying the program on why it fabricated something as if it won't fabricate that answer as well is peak ignorance. "Surely it will output factual information this time!"

  • It's distressing that a non-zero amount of medical professionals will use this without disclosure or consent.

  • And yet here you are, acting like one. "Phones bad. Kids dumb. My generation's better."

  • Interesting. That D20 marathon is gonna last like, a month, hah.

  • People that complain about the anachronisms are fucking stupid. The whole movie is an anachronism, and it's great for it.

  • You got that boomer energy.

  • Control Alan Wake games. Max Payne 1&2 (Remedy, Finland)

    Get it before the new (ex-EA) CEO turns the company into a husk of what it was becoming :\

  • Disco Elysium (Estonia)

    The current state of that dev team is...contentious to say the least. If I recall correctly three different studios have spawned, none on good terms with the others. Good game, though.

  • i’m not sure what you mean.

    It's literally the comment you responded to. Either way, Skynet isn't just "machines that hurt people". In the world of Terminator, Skynet is the hyper-intelligent, self-aware AI that facilitates the surreptitious takeover of humanity's technology. Saying llms will ever remotely come close to that demonstrates a fundamental misunderstanding of what the technology is and can do.

  • Again, what critic is claiming that llms and the rest of the tech aren't causing damage?

  • "It's just a joke!" Classic, hollow defense.

  • How is saying "these programs won't become sentient and take over the world" equivalent to claiming they can't do any damage? And if it doesn't matter, why is it being used to strawman criticism? Every critic I've ever seen has been very aware of the damage the tech is doing now and can do in the future. You're the only ones here claiming that the two are believed to be linked.

    The entire purpose of the meme is to say it doesn’t matter. You’re claiming the risk isn’t real without backing up the claim.

    It doesn't matter, but it needs to be substantiated? Pick a lane, already.

    Also, this?

    The entire terminator franchises is how humanity created the tech to exterminate itself.

    The entire franchise is fiction. We have enough real world examples without acting like fake stories are any sort of basis for an argument.

  • Ok? Who is out there that's criticizing "AI" that is also saying they can't do damage because they're not actually intelligent?

  • Current LLMs and their ilk will never become "Skynet". Critics of the tech aren't overlooking this "risk" because the risk doesn't exist.

  • Should start playing into it. Nothing would piss her boss off more than people treating someone else as his equal. Would probably fire her after the first news headline.
