Hey guess what, we general intelligences are capable of terrible things.
That was exactly my point. AI isn't, though. All it can really do is respond.
I'm sure the military is so excited about AI because of its ability to "respond".
If you can get chatgpt to drive your murder drone I'd be very impressed. Telsa can't figure it out in 2d.
My brother in Christ, the AI revolution is more than chatgpt.
Call when it gets dangerous enough to be an issue.
Im bot sure if you are aware but thats litterally what makes ai so usefull its just responding to external inputs and doesent habe to be programmed value for value because it getsTrained with datasets and chat GPT isn't gonna hurt a fly the reason its m Rated is because the idiots who made it didn't filter the input content whilst web scraping its litterally too stupid to Funktionass a weapon except for misinformation which it outputs regardless oft its age rating openai is just a buncha cucs who switched to a close source system and can't actually make any gold company decisions
TL;DR: Fuck openai
FWIW I work in the field and agree with this. LLMs in the current state are not so dangerous they can't be released to public. Generative image and video models are a much bigger threat, but that was largely something which came from open source.
If we really want to pearl clutch, it is NVIDIA which is really propping open this Pandora's box in terms of putting the capability in irresponsible hands
Are the cards really powerful enough for so much fuss?
Definitely. An A100 system is around $10k which is expensive, but definitely in reach, and you need two of them to run a 70B parameter model. Possibly one if you are clever about it.
And you can still do plenty of damage with a $1000 consumer grade GPU. Most deepfake videos are trained on these platforms.
