Not sure if this is the best community to post in; please let me know if there's a more appropriate one. AFAIK Aii@programming.dev is meant for news and articles only.

I hate AI because I want to be able to afford RAM and storage again

[-] GreenKnight23@lemmy.world 26 points 6 days ago

I hate AI because it's a waste of finite resources.

I hate it because it's supported by a system of corruption and greed that is destroying the economy.

I hate it because all major AI vendors have supported or abetted criminals in circumventing democracy worldwide.

I hate it because it isn't AI, it's a LLM.

You're confusing AI with AGI...
Speech to text is ai, llm's are ai... But they're not conscious

[-] GreenKnight23@lemmy.world 0 points 3 days ago

AI helps fly planes when pilots lose consciousness.

AI helps surgeons perform microscopic surgery through robotic tools.

AI performs large algorithmic and logistically complex tasks based on a specific set of requirements to a detailed task.

These aren't new concepts. These are technologies that have existed for the last 30-40 years.

Our definition of "AI" today has been muddled due to marketing manipulation.

LLMs are not AI. LLMs have existed for the last 20-30 years. I played with one in 2000. it was a sex chat bot. it literally did exactly the same things current LLMs do today except it emulates speech patterns better.

AGI is just another marketing word. Ignore it, it doesn't exist.

A sex chat bot is ai.
Ai doesn't mean it's intelligent
LLM'S do a lot more than mimic speech patterns.
And I know AGI doesn't exist

being a human clearly doesn't either.

Look up the definition of artificial intelligence, you fucking idiot

have supported or abetted criminals in circumventing democracy worldwide.

Isn’t that just the definition of USA?

I don't hate AI, in fact i think it could be very useful. But i can't help but notice that it's critics are mostly correct and it's proponents are a bunch of fucking morons.

I hate "A.I." because it's not A.I. it's an if statement stapled to a dictionary.

Also because I can't write the short name of Albert without people thinking I'm talking about A.I.

Fr. Allen Iverson is in shambles on brand recognition.

Al uses AI because Al is AI

As far as I am concerned I am going to do the opposite of anything Sam Altman says. He is the ultimate snake oil salesman. He sold this trash to Microsoft, which I guess these days is pretty on brand.

I'm excited because I think AI will break down and erode proprietary file formats, for ultimate portability between different software providers. That for me is a game changer in how software is used, and opens up real competition and innovation. Thats not anything as grand as the AGI these founders keep vaporwaring, but I think it will still be substantial.
