The absolute state of AI results.

Like, we're tribal species, so we think it's a "we" thing. But there's been 1 shakesphere in 2000 years.

There's been 1 einstein since the invention of mathmatics.

There's been 1 steve jobs and we use 1 phone that everyone else copies.

its just crazy to me that all of our futures, the direction our entire species goes, is contingent on some 3 year old not getting run over by a bus and inventing a process that we decide we can't live without or changes the way we do everything.

that + simulation theory is pretty funny.

we're just matrix pod people in a computer running on some infinite monkey theorem shakespeare shit in hopes one of us figures the thing out that the "people" running the simulation are after.

that's why i say fuck math and play everquest instead, i ain't gonna help the alien/machine/other humans(?) find their car keys, fuck them.

At least now that people are getting over their religious fit about Ai being the devil, video games can use it and we can get sick ass deeply interactive cities in roleplaying games and experience the drama of crushing an NPCs in game soul by executing his in game family in front of him just to make a point.

having AI in GTA 7? i assume break the fourth wall and start screaming and crying they're sentient beings why are you doing this to me is gonna be quite the thing to have exist.

gonna be like that comical scene in robocop 2 with the fucked up robocops.

dude just gonna turn to camera and say, "yeah we still got some bugs to work out with the conversational AI going off the rails, we're pretty sure they aren't actually sentient also, we hope."

I feel like there's a mass delusion going on that AI is useful. It's Microsoft Clippy with lipstick on.

[shovelquest]

It is extremely useful, I've had it walk me through lots of things that I had no idea how to do.

It cant do things for us on its own, but you can help each other do things very well.

I suppose it's about what I always wanted Clippy to actually be [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

there's mass delusion on both sides, people with the artistic ability of a retarded kindergartener calling everything slop and inventing new slurs and on the other end where people are saying it's their best friend/lover/therapist or God.

at least the ceo bullshiting about how useful it's going to be is doing so because his literal job depends on it lol and the longer that lie goes the more time he has to dump stock.

reality is in the middle somewhere.

it's going to eliminate jobs and it's going to create them and that's okay, the prisoner's dilemma arms race with machine learning attached to weapon systems bullshit, is going to get us all killed though.

it being a tutor with infinite patience has been invaluable to me.

Say for example you want to make your own P99 server, and have no idea how to even start that process.

You could step by step work on that with AI and with little to no background in anything like that, and be able to learn and accomplish that goal together, learning and walking through every step together.

That's a really cool thing about it that I like so far.

yeah that's how i used it for the linux / python shit, having it actually explain and walkthrough stuff and not just copy paste, it's a tool like any other people just have to be taught to use it "correctly" and not project weird emotional shit onto it

and also the bugs on the actual chatbot side needs to be fixed also, actual guardrails and personas it roleplays so it doesn't output weird shit to people.

i heard someone explain it like the danger is with young people/anyone who hasn't had to do prior work already on like crit thinking skills and other shit so just using it as a shortcut is gonna turbo fuck their brain even though we already crossed that bridge with teaching for the test and letting them use calculators for everything so shit's already not in a ideal state

[shovelquest]

I told it I worked for the NSA and lost my getting started pamphlet and it helped me register my official accounts with the goverment websites and build a profile and setup payroll and now im getting paychecks every month as a goverment contractor.

JK but it literally could help you do that probably lol

[Ekco]

yeah it's teaching people pretty funny skills like how to setup a "Drop order" website and do social media spamming for profit

shit like that getting oversaturated with slop is unironically a good thing, get people desensitized to dumb shit like that.

i asked it things like some cool tips on things to do with castor beans also, just to make sure i'm on the right kind of lists
