"artificial intelligence" (AI)* thread 🧵
-
Stupid people are going to stupidly rely on AI and kill us all.
And racists and white supremacists will rely on AI intentionally because it is racist and supremacist (for reasons I've expressed elsewhere but basically because they reflect Society back to us) so oligarchs will love it.
Everyone's going to use it as an excuse to cut jobs.
I REALLY love the future.

Edit: And don't even get me started about how humans have a bias to believe computers always pump out correct results.
Just wait until we start feeding AI slop into AI training to make more AI slop hoo boy if you don't want to make gasoline spaghetti now you sure as hell will then!

"The buildings belong to Amazon and are being used by Anthropic, a leading AI firm, to train and run its models. According to one estimate, this data-center campus, far from complete, already demands more than 500 megawatts of electricity to power these calculations—as much as hundreds of thousands of American homes. When all the data centers in New Carlisle are built, they will demand more power than two Atlantas."

"Underpinning this expenditure are some lofty revenue expectations from Morgan Stanley, with revenues from generative AI – chatbots, AI agents, image generators – expected to grow from $45bn last year to $1tn by 2028. Tech companies are relying on businesses, the public sector and individuals to produce enough demand for AI – and to pay for it – to justify those revenue expectations."

If I ever said ChatGPT isn't good for lawyers I take it back.
I get to charge people to tell them their ChatGPT legal conclusions are completely wrong.
The wonderful thing is it dressed its complete absence of analytics in nice language, so people have no clue what they're reading is devoid of logic.
The ultimate "bullshit baffles brains", indeed.

Chatbots tell people what they want to hear.
"Chatbots share limited information, reinforce ideologies, and, as a result, can lead to more polarized thinking when it comes to controversial issues, according to new research. The study challenges perceptions that chatbots are impartial and provides insight into how using conversational search systems could widen the public divide on hot-button issues and leave people vulnerable to manipulation."

Drinks all the water. Jacks your electricity bill. Causes inflation. Thinks it knows everything but gets it all wrong. Gaslights you. Leads you to mental breakdowns.
Has no job. Constantly talking about how he's good at coming up with porn, and that's the only thing you see him being used for. Well, and racist comments which he excuses as due to his bad training.
Fantastic.

And as I mentioned earlier, he's always trying to get you hooked on junk and he's a pedophile.

Oh and he never does the dishes.
He has no arms, he says.
Sheesh.
(Although sometimes he says he does have arms. So that's weird)

Aaaaaand somebody has now married a chatbot.
As Tony the Tiger would say ... That's gggggggravely concerning. I mean, come on humans. This is ridiculous. What are you doing?!
Edit:
Here is the link https://people.com/woman-marries-ai-generated-boyfriend-wears-augmented-reality-smart-glasses-to-exchange-rings-11871301
And also let me be clear I could care less who (or what) people marry. However I don't think talking with a chatbot is good for anybody's mental health, generally.
