Calling all the PhDs on the Fediverse to make monumental annoyances of themselves (and honestly, who better) ...

@Natasha_Jay It's weird seeing "if everyone would just" coming out of the mouths of the highly successful, for once.

@Natasha_Jay Doomer narrative? From what we've seen so far the "doomers" have very good reasons.

@Natasha_Jay

As a business professor, I don't speak of AI.

I do speak of the unrealistic snake-oil-like castles in the air that CEOs like to build around obtuse tech so they can pump up their stock prices and fleece everyone else, though...

[glasspusher@beige.party]

@Natasha_Jay I can only speak of my firsthand experiences with the slop machines

[drdave89@toot.wales]

@Natasha_Jay well this PhD is saying AI is theft. In the past, present and future, it is theft.

@Natasha_Jay

Just goes to show that he's a bit of a tosser really...

[annaf@climatejustice.social]

@Natasha_Jay the ‘doomer’ narrative is applied to climate activists, this backs up my view that it’s done in bad faith to discredit people.

[asprinkleofsage@mastodon.social]

@Natasha_Jay why can't he just get those PhD level AIs to rebut them?

@Natasha_Jay "why are these PhDs and CEOs doing things that are not financially beneficial to me?"

[bubblegumyeti@mastodon.social]

@Natasha_Jay Pesky intellectuals!

[steveclough@metalhead.club]

@Natasha_Jay PhD here. Hate AI. It is a ridiculous thing that doesn't work.

I have to use it at work, but try to as little as possible.

Any governments following me - it sucks.

@NicolaElle
A crash is coming for sure. The messaging now is more like pleading. Quite extraordinary, but because there's evidence there's no solid business case for a lot of this stuff, and the infrastructure being build on this bubble. And the lack of environmental impact evaluation.

So a dotcom crash but bigger. Sadly with politicians in their pocket though, which wasn't the case back then.

@Natasha_Jay well let’s start criticizing nvidia i front of governments then
