Back then, this statement was such an exaggeration that it was plain to see it was satire… now it’s indistinguishable from reality

hahaha spot on!

When this happens (or similar situation) to me, I always think to myself “no rest for the wicked!”… it’s become an inside joke for my fam

You can probably configure the demon in Linux

Then maybe the buried fertilizer will become so valuable that it can be dug out and sold as fertilizer again.

I don’t see any problems with this plan !

except the part the planet may be uninhabitable for humans by then due to the massive CO2 we are spewing to get slop from AI…

other than that, no problem at all

It’s poetic… MS AI slings out massive amounts of shit and now the company gets to bury some of it to compensate

The point is simple: it’s able to solve complex problems and do very impressive things that even human struggle to, in very short time

You mean like a calculator does?

techno-archeology is a thing I guess

is reddit still alive? it must be 100% bot on bot action by now…

if any country has an actual interest in replacing their disappearing population with AI workers, it would be Japan

Youmay not be wrong, but it reinforces the notion AI is a new tiktok fad and nothing truly useful

Bitch @

100%

and Trump is destroying all of it

The way things are going for you, nobody with a half a choice would decide to migrate to the USA for work

Adjust to your new reality pal

Sure, but the US has a lot of well-educated people (e.g. see the Education Index), as well as a lot of opportunities for well-educated people to get in-demand jobs that pay well.

There are more Indian Engineers in the USA than American ones… and Trump is destroying all of it

The way things are going for you, nobody with a half a choice would decide to migrate to the USA for work

where our education systems can compete favorably

LOL are you sure about that?

China ranks higher than the USA in literacy rates

So we should then let American oligarchs drive American workers to the same but slower? because that is what has happened so far

ah Ted Cruz… the infected pimple in the ass that is the GOP

The current regime is full of ignorant buffoons but at least in that case it would normally be temporary.

In the private model where the gov pays for everything anyway, the taxpayer pays the cost of doing the thing plus whatever profit the oligarch wants to make and you have no way of switching to another oligarch should the current one becomes unacceptable. There is simply no upside to SpaceX as a private entity

You’re moving the goalposts. You said you need nuance in how to measure a shirt size, you’re arguing just to argue.

I said I needed context to verify AI was not giving me slop. If you want to trust AI blindly, go ahead, I’m not sure why you need me to validate your point

If a model ever starts answering these curiosities inaccurately, it would be an insufficient model for that task and wouldn’t be used for it.

And how would you notice unless: you either already know the correct answer (at least a ballpark) or verify what AI is telling you?

You would immediately notice this is a bad model when it tells you to measure your neck to get a sleeve length

What if it gives you and answer that does not sound so obviously wrong? like measuring the neck width instead of circumference? or measure shoulder to wrists?

So I’m making the assertion that many models today are already sufficient for accurately answering daily curiosities about modern life.

And once again I tell you that you can trust it blindly while I would not and I will add that I do not need another catalyst for the destruction of our planet so I can get some trivia questions answered. Given the environmental cost of AI, I would expect a significant return, not just a trivia machine that may wrong 25% of the time

but to dismiss their utility completely is just idiotic.

not what I said at all. I simply stated AI answers cannot be trusted without verifying them which makes them a lot less useful

not at the current cost or environmental damage
