The swimming pool on the roof sometimes springs a leak. ;3 HTP

LLM "AI" fans thinking "Hey, humans are dumb and AI is smart so let's leave murder to a piece of software hurriedly cobbled together by a human and pushed out before even they thought it was ready!"

I guess while I'm cheering the fiery destruction of humanity I'll be thanking not the wonderful being who pressed the "Yes, I'm sure I want to set off the antimatter bombs that will end all humans" but the people who were like "Let's give the robots a chance! It's not like the thinking they don't do could possibly be worse than that of the humans who put some of their own thoughts into the robots!"

I just woke up, so you're getting snark. makes noises like the snarks from Half-Life You'll eat your snark and you'll like it!

Hey, I like that game! Oh, wait... 🤔

Why do I keep looking at these threads? The way people talk about this stuff on all sides is so asinine. Nearly every good point is accompanied by missing a big one or just ricocheting off the good one, flying off into space and hitting a fully automated luxury gay space commulist. Hopes, dreams, assumptions, and ignorance all just headbutting each other and getting nowhere.

Oh yeah, I wanted to know what "superintelligence" was and whether I should care. Welp.

But you "do even" think it's sensible to demand perfect security like that's the only valid alternative to Windows for anyone?

"[brand] makes slow cars!" "What do you recommend that does 0-60 literally instantaneously?" "This is a reasonable question and implied suggestion and I will now proceed to thoughtfully engage with it, taken literally as stated. Here is my breakdown of companies producing physically impossible road-legal motor vehicles:"

I didn't do anything. It's just something that happens on kbin. Unless you mean seeing the intended image, in which case I use the "open original url" thing under "more" on the original post.

Do what? O.o

That's just us with our super fun kbin shenans! It's a Firefox logo everywhere else.

Edit: It's a pic of some food for us on kbin.

Wow, AOL is still a thing? ... Maybe I never left. Maybe I've just been lost in AOL's little... channel things, or whatever they were, for the past couple of decades. Please, somecritter come find me and get me out of here 🙀

Or maybe we're all stuck in there. Maybe the real AOL is the average bellend doing the same vapid shite every day and every night. Maybe it never ends because people never change, as a mass, as the same mess they've always been.

Wooooah, trippy. Anyway I think I just kinda showerthoughtsed myself into rediscovering Eternal September, or at least kinda pondering the concept aloud.

Already got one installed? Zombie plague? Janeway drank all' your coffee this morning? Hmmmm 🤔

Har har har! Whew. That one's a lil rough :P

There's a difference between using ChatGPT to help you write a paper and having ChatGPT write the paper for you.

Yeah, one is what many "AI" fans insist is what's happening, and the other is what people actually do because humans are lazy, intellectually dishonest piles of crap. "Just a little GPT," they say. "I don't see a problem, we'll all just use it in moderation," they say. Then somehow we only see more garbage full of errors; we get BS numbers, references to studies or legal cases or anything else that simply don't exist, images of people with extra rows of teeth and hands where feet should be, gibberish non-text where text could obviously be... maybe we'll even get ads injected into everything because why not screw up our already shitty world even more?

So now people have this "tool" they think is simultaneously smarter and more creative than humans at all of the things humans have historically claimed makes them better than not only machines but other animals, but is also "just a tool" that they're only going to use a little bit, to help out but not replace. They'll trust this tool to be smarter than they are, which it will arguably impressively turn out to not be. They'll expect everyone else to accept the costs this incurs, from environmental damage due to running the damn things to social, scientific, economic, and other harms caused by everything being generated by "hallucinating" "AI" that's incapable of thinking.

It's all very tiring.

(And now I'm probably going to get more crap for both things I've said and things I haven't, because people are intellectually lazy/dishonest and can't take criticism. Even more tiring! Bleh.)
