I just saw a video of an AI executive saying that people will connect their brains to the cloud so they can have 1,000 times more thoughts.

[alter_unicorn@masto.bike]

@Artists_Ali lets connect an AI to my very much ADHD brain and watch it die from poisoning. no amount of RAM can handle all the randomness and noise.

[lyonsinbeta@mastodon.social]

@Artists_Ali seconded.

[aedius@lavraievie.social]

@Artists_Ali

Executive don't bother, it's impossible to multiply 0

[smolwaffle@union.place]

@Artists_Ali
Look what they need to mimic a fraction of our power!
@shapr

[artists_ali@sunny.garden]

@alter_unicorn TRUE!

[woozle@toot.cat]

@Artists_Ali If I let them have some of my thoughts, will they do something with them? I never have enough time...

[lp0_on_fire@social.linux.pizza]

@Epic_Null @Shdwdrgn @Artists_Ali, I guarantee that Thoughts will shove that Thoughts+ one into subscribers' brains whenever it can, and that far too many will… have it thought for them… that they should pay for it. And they will.

(Also, release the hypnodrones.)

@Artists_Ali@sunny.garden mmm, more thoughts at same speed will saturate the bandwidth and suck ass
but if you could "overclock" brains, THEN it could maybe allow for like...3x more thoughts...lol

adhd is fun but...wait what was i saying?

[shdwdrgn@tech.lgbt]

@Artists_Ali I wish I had an answer to that, I would love to be able to help everyone. I guess my focus in life has just been that I'm gonna be happy and fuck everyone else. There's so much scary shit in life and I just have to ignore what I can't change. Maybe I just put up too many walls. If I could hold everyone and make the bad shit go away, I would. I don't have answers, but I have a kind ear willing to listen and talk.

[shdwdrgn@tech.lgbt]

@lp0_on_fire @Epic_Null @Artists_Ali Heh that's exactly why I don't trust Musk and those sorts... I'm trying to develop my own methods that I can actually control.

[elexia@catcatnya.com]

@Artists_Ali more thoughts is in fact not more better

[umbreon@donphan.social]

@Artists_Ali also even if you could wrangle 1,000 simultaneous thoughts at once.... what would you do with it? People are limited to one thing at a time most of the time.

[renardboy@mastodon.social]

@StaticR @Artists_Ali tbf coming up with smart ideas largely involves permutating over combinations of simple concepts until something good pops out. That or I'm just not as smart as I think I am, which is a real possibility.

[fgbjr@indieweb.social]

@Artists_Ali I was thinking exactly the same thing. Having 1,000 times more ideas doesn't mean there's necessarily going to be a good one among them. It'll sure keep a person busy though.

[mrgrumpymonkey@mastodon.social]

@Artists_Ali So this is the latest grift?

[mrrmot@oldbytes.space]

@Artists_Ali i mean, The Black Cloud was only written [checks notes] seventy years ago, you can't expect people to have actually learned from it yet...

[mrrmot@oldbytes.space]

@Artists_Ali And yes, of course I know the similarity is a bit far-fetched; today's "scientists" are not even suggesting plugging into anything remotely intelligent...

[rednikki@toot.boston]

@Artists_Ali This sounds like an AI executive that has done a LOT of coke.

[xarvos@outerheaven.club]

@Artists_Ali@sunny.garden makes me think of the chapter from sandman where a man was punished by given too many ideas
