This feels like its saying "outsource your critical thinking and agency to us, and don't worry about it"?

[-] UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 8 points 5 months ago

Feels like it's saying "Hey you stupid fucking investors who will believe anything, why don't you give me another hundred billion dollars for these magic beans?"

[-] cecilkorik@lemmy.ca 3 points 5 months ago

These magic beans will not only grow twice as fast, they'll also fix the last magic beans that didn't grow.

[-] opavader@lemmy.world 2 points 5 months ago

they make money by being digital pimps for snake oil products. lower the critical thinking of peasants, higher the chances of them getting fooled by targeted ads of scams and fake garbage.

try searching for any chronic illness on chrome or talk about it on whatsapp and you will be getting ads for miracle cures for months.

His vision sounds like "let us listen to, and see every task you do, so that we can command the world centrally from my business"

Zuckerberg predicted that personal AI systems that deeply understand users’ goals will become increasingly important, with devices like smart glasses becoming primary computing tools because they can understand context by seeing and hearing what users experience.

Google Glasses 2.0 but with even more privacy concerns, literally a horrible idea. He's just hype cycling his unpopular glasses.

AIs are a long way away from even normal intelligence. Currently, they are parrots with dictionaries. They have no insight or real reflection on what they are doing. I am not sure I will see real artificial intelligence in my lifetime.

[-] a1studmuffin@aussie.zone 7 points 5 months ago

I'm sorry, what happened to the metaverse Zuck?

[-] BlueBaggy@sh.itjust.works 6 points 5 months ago

It means whatever makes him the most money.

[-] FuckFascism@lemmy.world 6 points 5 months ago

It means mass surveillance

[-] OutlierBlue@lemmy.ca 5 points 5 months ago

"I don't know why. They 'trust me'. Dumb fucks"

That Zuckerberg?

[-] Perspectivist@feddit.uk 5 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

If you’re genuinely interested in what “artificial superintelligence” (ASI) means, you can just look it up. Zuckerberg didn’t invent the term - it’s been around for decades, popularized lately by Nick Bostrom’s book Superintelligence.

The usual framing goes like this: Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) is an AI system with human-level intelligence. Push it beyond human level and you’re talking about Artificial Superintelligence - an AI with cognitive abilities that surpass our own. Nothing mysterious about it.

[-] yumyumsmuncher@feddit.uk 4 points 5 months ago

It means he found another way to get richer with the excuse of "connecting" or "improving" society. Fucking idiot

GTFO of Meta services

[-] GaMEChld@lemmy.world 4 points 5 months ago

Serious question. Did none of these mother fuckers watch The Terminator? Or The Matrix?

(fun project, reply back with more movies in the same vein of humanity inventing our evolutionary successors)

[-] FuckFascism@lemmy.world 3 points 5 months ago

Planet of the apes the reboot trilogy; I've never watched any of the originals so I can't speak for those.

[-] GaMEChld@lemmy.world 1 points 5 months ago

Oooh, yeah I've been meaning to watch those, I loved the first one of that series but never got around to watching the rest.

[-] HalfSalesman@lemmy.world 3 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

The thing is, he is referencing specifically a model that recently demonstrated (to its developers at least) the ability to self improve without direct human input. But obviously there are caveats to what that actually means.

That he is referencing something specific and recent though makes me think he's being genuine here, he believes what he is saying.

Obviously, hes almost certainly jumping the gun. Hes demonstrated a lack of critical thinking when it comes to new technological developments. See: all the money he dumped into VR and the Metaverse. (I say this as much as I personally like VR, its not exactly a money maker)

I see some commenters here pointing out that he is a coder, but he's probably not coded anything for more than a decade at this point. He is fully immersed in the Silicon Valley koolaid, only he seems to use more public facing optimism about AI compared to other CEOs.

Sure. We can all trust Zuckerberg to help improve humanity. He has the credentials! Look how much we have improved in the last 15 years Facebook is a thing. Is not like Meta contributed to Genocide, election interference, the rise of conspiracy theorists, sold our data to the highest bidder etc etc /s

[-] beejjorgensen@lemmy.sdf.org 3 points 5 months ago

Will AI finally replace CEOs?

[-] Red0ctober@lemmy.world 0 points 5 months ago

The only job they can actually do as well as their human counterparts

[-] NocturnalMorning@lemmy.world 2 points 5 months ago

Man, I wish this guy would fuck off somewhere and just retire. Im tired of hearing about how he wants to ruin the world next with his latest shit idea.

[-] postcapitalism@lemmy.today 2 points 5 months ago

What about the “metaverse”? I thought that was your thing?

[-] dinckelman@lemmy.world 2 points 5 months ago

It means whatever the shareholders wanna hear, because they slobber each others knob for literally fucking anything, that sounds like it’ll make money from a pump and dump

[-] MedicPigBabySaver@lemmy.world 1 points 5 months ago

Hey Zuck, suck it!

[-] SocialMediaRefugee@lemmy.world 1 points 5 months ago

Wile E Coyote, super geeeenius.

[-] Gudl@feddit.org 1 points 5 months ago

Zuck the fuck

[-] Brkdncr@lemmy.world 0 points 5 months ago

Dude is full of himself.

[-] etherphon@piefed.world 0 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

I have a hard time coming up with any technology past the year 2000 that has improved my life in any way. I have my doubts.

[-] partial_accumen@lemmy.world 5 points 5 months ago

mRNA vaccine technology that made the two most effective COVID vaccines saving millions of lives was pretty great.

[-] UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 0 points 5 months ago

Also radically improved my cell phone reception.

[-] panda_abyss@lemmy.ca 1 points 5 months ago

It’s nice to always have a flashlight on your person.

Blue LEDs are recent and pretty cool.

[-] rottingleaf@lemmy.world 0 points 5 months ago

I fucking hate blue leds. They cause migraines, and even when not - irritate the hell out of my eyes.

[-] prex@aussie.zone 1 points 5 months ago

Everone hates those but the same technology can be used with phospors to make LED area lighting/tv backlights etc.

[-] RobotZap10000@feddit.nl 1 points 5 months ago

You would sure be hard-pressed to think of any good thing involving Mark Zuckerberg, alright.

[-] UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 1 points 5 months ago

Torrents are pretty nice. I also enjoy the newer lines of flat-screens, particularly when I want to move a monitor without throwing out my back.
