I think he could be right about generative AI, but that's not a serious problem given we're moving beyond generative AI and into virtual intelligence territory.

Generative ai right now requires someone (or something) to initiate it with a prompt, but according to some of the latest research papers in OpenAI as well as the drama that happened recently surrounding the leadership, it appears that we're moving beyond the 'generative' phase into the 'virtual intelligence' phase.

It's not going to be 'smart' it will be knowledgeable (and accurate, hopefully). That is to say VI's will be useful as data retrieval or organization but not necessarily data creation (although IIRC the way to get around this would be to develop a VI that specifically only works on creating ideas but we'd be moving into AGI territory and I don't expect we'll have serious contenders for AGI for another decade at least).

The rumours abound surrounding the OpenAI drama, the key one being the potential for accidentally developing AGI internally (I doubt this heavily). The more likely reason is that the board of directors had a financial stake in Nvidia and when they found out altman was working on chips specifically for AI that were faster, lower cost, and lower power consumption than current nvidia trash (by literally tens of thousands of dollars), they fired him to try and force the company onto their preferred track (and profit in the process, which IMO, kind of ironic that a non-profit board of directors has so many 'closed door' discussions with nvidia staff...)

This is just the thoughts of a comp-sci student with a focus on artificial intelligence systems.

Keep in mind that because it's still early days in this field that a lot of terms haven't reached an established consensus across academia yet, so you'll notice variations in how each organization explains what "x" type of intelligence is.

If buying isn't owning, piracy isn't theft.

Nvidia is actively supporting our adversaries abroad with their military technology, should be arresting the entire c suite

No counter argument or point to make, just a few insults and the typical air of incompetence surrounding someone who just assumes they're right without understanding economics, the current state of technology both software and hardware, the impact unions have, how unions work, how unions preserve jobs, the ramifications of those preserved jobs to market competition in an era of advancements, and apparently the written word of their native language.

An impressive display of intellect, truly.

You should go complete some elementary school literature tests.

It's clear you didn't understand what was written.

Thanks for the laugh though.

Society's views on sexuality will change before we will EVER get a serious handle on deepfakes. If you're rich and can afford the lawyers, go ham and sue, otherwise, time to just accept that humans are animals and animals fuck.

Whether or not someone is or is not in a porn video is less important than whether or not they can do whatever job or task they've been given.

Religious puritanical morons and prudes need to stfu and get over it, the victims need to cope with reality that this is never going away and they can spend their entire life and fortune on 'finding the one who did this' or just move on and put energy into something worthwhile.

Even complaining about this is hysterically moronic. The 'big threat' is fake porn.

Fixing the child care system so that child abuse, emotional, physical and sexual gets reduced even 1% would be immensely more worthwhile a task than literally any ending of a pursuit against a technology that is open source and widely available, not to mention even if it was made illegal in your country, good luck actually enforcing a law like that without going 110% dystopia with locked down internet that would make current chinese life look like a kind big brother system.

Genuinely not sure where to even begin with this.

I would recommend looking at Samsung history as a company, from having the largest private militarized navy at one point to active influence on various countries politicians to allow them to continue to live like kings.

For a more thorough overview I would recommend https://wri-irg.org/en/story/2011/war-profiteer-month-samsung it's a bit aged but covers a lot, would recommend following up on more recent shenanigans with the search terms "samsung human testing, samsung war technology division influence on global politics, samsung militarized private navy, Samsung aircraft carrier, Samsung support of genocide, Samsung and African warlords, Samsung and child slavery, Samsung and nestle projects, Samsung war crime, et al"

Google and Apple are both trash tier companies with zero respect for the human or their privacy.

And Samsung somehow manages to be worse than both of them.

This was clearly written by someone who has very little interaction with healthy forums for dialogue. There will always be trolls online and in real life, pretending like idiots and jokers only exist in an online setting is disingenuous or the view of a completely sheltered individual.
