All technological advancements have caused changes, many have made entire professions obsolete.

One could even be allowed to imagine that science itself ought to have put priests out of a job, yet that hasn’t happened yet either.

“AI” is a generic term that’s being thrown around a lot.

There’s a huge distance from today’s AI, which at its best is generative AI based on large language models, to actual General AI that is able to learn, understand, and adapt.

Sure, you can train a language model, but it doesn’t make it “smarter” in the same instance.

A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.
