    So far AI has done more damage than adding any true value to productivty unless you consider the following as plus points:

    * Getting staff fired
    * Stealing journalist, book authors, or artists’ work
    * Environment impact
    * Hallucinations that caused harm and loss of life
    * Creating undressing images of minors and woman
    * The list list endless and you have to be psychopaths to like this

    @nixCraft They do, in fact, see "getting staff fired" & “stealing ... work" as "plus points" & are worth the harms caused. They are not concerned about growing the economy so much as 'maximizing shareholder value' & the corresponding boost to their bonuses.

      Goldman saying 0% is generous. Most AI companies are just wrapping APIs and calling it innovation. The actual productivity gains are happening at companies that were already data-driven, not from the AI hype cycle.

          @nixCraft

          This is just a grift to pass monstrous amounts of money between the elites, while also siphoning what's left of the capital of 99.99% of the population, and cutting access to hardware.

          They won't stop until we're back to medieval society.

              @nixCraft And if you don't trust Goldman Sachs, maybe you believe 6000 executives from the US, UK, Germany and Australia a little bit more. From the study:

              > "Third, the impact of AI on firm employment and productivity has been small so far. On average, more than 90% of business managers across the four countries estimate no impact of AI on their employment over the past three years. 89% report no impact of AI on their labor productivity over the last three years."

                @nixCraft In the 70's we were talking about this day of AI and the problems it would create. Starting with the need for some kind of UBI, then what would the people do instead of work(there are only so many truly creative people), the needs for provided medical care, housing, food and more. By the time the 80's rolled around those discussions weren't heard any more. The GOP had it under control.
                /S, Just ask Reagan it was all the Welfare Queen and food stamps.

                    @nixCraft how is AI simultaneously producing nothing of value and also taking jobs, in your mind? How can it steal (and therefore profit from) artists work while also being incapable of production? Workers and artists have absolutely nothing to worry about because AI doesn’t work, right?

                        And yeah, it may have good uses, like fighting cancer or stuff like that, but it's philosophy and core functionalities still fucking shit. I csm only see negative shit coming out of it so #FuckAI

                            Not, no, it doesn't' fight cancers… research do…

                            What microshit, google, crapbook, altman, musk and all the technofascists sell, are LLMs. LLMs just generate bullshit, thus called "generative AI". It has absolutely nothing to do with field specific machine learning thats might be used in health research

                            LLMs are only useful for fascists to make disinformation and FUD… Absolutely 0 "good uses"

                              @nixCraft And if you don't trust Goldman Sachs, maybe you believe 6000 executives from the US, UK, Germany and Australia a little bit more. From the study:

                              > "Third, the impact of AI on firm employment and productivity has been small so far. On average, more than 90% of business managers across the four countries estimate no impact of AI on their employment over the past three years. 89% report no impact of AI on their labor productivity over the last three years."

                              @fnwbr Of course they wouldn't admit this shit actually had BIG impact of AI on heir employment… They used as an excuse to fire people massively, expecting their profit to skyrocket "because the AI will do their job faster"… Fucking clowns

                                @fnwbr @nixCraft Although other parts of the article quote analysts being cautiously positive about its impact on productivity in the most recent quarter and the general thrust seems to be that significant productivity gains may be more in the longer rather than shorter term. I’m not a lover of AI, but that is what the Fortune article is saying.

                                  @nixCraft Big Tech LLMs maybe. But "AI" is waaaay more than this mainstream hype chatbots.

                                  @scotty86 @nixCraft As an example of machine learning being useful, see the following article, which mentions how machine learning has reduced the computational resources needed for some tasks.

                                    AI Added ‘Basically Zero’ to US Economic Growth Last Year, Goldman Sachs Says https://gizmodo.com/ai-added-basically-zero-to-us-economic-growth-last-year-goldman-sachs-says-2000725380 😂😂😂

                                    So far AI has done more damage than adding any true value to productivty unless you consider the following as plus points:

                                    * Getting staff fired
                                    * Stealing journalist, book authors, or artists’ work
                                    * Environment impact
                                    * Hallucinations that caused harm and loss of life
                                    * Creating undressing images of minors and woman
                                    * The list list endless and you have to be psychopaths to like this

                                          @nixCraft how is AI simultaneously producing nothing of value and also taking jobs, in your mind? How can it steal (and therefore profit from) artists work while also being incapable of production? Workers and artists have absolutely nothing to worry about because AI doesn’t work, right?

                                          @Joeheadycus @nixCraft how can it steal? They only exist because of theft. Doesn't mean it produces art. This is not difficult
