Oh please let it be a fully egalitarian future…
Attached is a perfectly acceptable social media post and two entirely understandable LLM responses to the post and a reimagining of the post.
One relevant data point in terms of how soon we’d conceivably be refactoring language models and updating our own views:
From their research, Sáenz and Poston Jr expect the United States to have progressed to overall white minority demography by 2044.
Of course, a white minority doesn’t necessarily equate a dismantling of a power structure favoring white folks.
It shouldn’t need to be said on the fediverse that racists need not reply - expect most folks will approach this academically as intended.
PS: if you hate this post, please try to be as nice as you can about it - e.g. toss me a polite sentence after you downvote
May I inquire what you think we'll be using it for?
Writing emails, generating summaries, translation, code, true phone virtual assistant, dubbed-with-AI content... This year we are going to see very probably important announcements from GAFAM, that's why the AI pin startups launched their products so early, because they are very soon probably being made obsolete with whatever GAFAM has in hands for summer and fall announcements.
I'm already amazing at emails and summaries, I can write my own code but rarely need to outside my job, I don't have a use case for translation, I don't use my current phone assistant and can't see myself using a "true" virtual assistant.
Got any better scenarios? Cuz all those use cases fill me with apathy.
Well, 20 years ago you didn't need a computer but now it is virtually ridiculous if you don't have one in your pocket.
Also you are not using a virtual assistant nowadays because they are s***. But once you can have a natural, context sensitive conversation with your assistant where instead of "create an alarm at 8:30" you can ask it to "see if there is any important email or WhatsApp I need to answer" or "please tell me if Joe messages about mom"...
