I know it’s marketing. Which is why I think they should kill themselves. Perpetuating the “AI will ruin humanity” narrative - not because of violating labor laws and committing war crimes, but because le terminator - deserves nothing but scorn and death. I WISH the evil AI was real so these people would be tormented for eternity.

    Attacking a real person in defense of an "AI" fake person is some next level bazinga bullshit. Wall for every one of those motherfuckers.

      I can't imagine being dumb enough to think that the plot of I, Robot is more of a real-world issue than sexual abuse.

      It becomes easier with "DAE HUMANS ARE JUST MEAT COMPUTERS" reductionistic comparisons. It makes LLM treat printers seem that much closer to ascended godlike waifu helpmeets for the computer touchers craving them.

        Bro why does every time this comes up you say humans are above the material we're made of. I don't think it's as reductive as "we're meat computers" but I don't think it's entirely wrong; they're just predictive models but something else might be able to be considered AGI. I'm not bazingabrained but there's no physical law saying AGI is impossible one day

          Humans are the material they're made of, but that material is not in the form of a contemporary binary computer ("meat" or otherwise) nor are their behaviors or thoughts fully reducible to LLM functions, outside of marketing hype in favor of LLMs anyway or singularity occult beliefs about how the great nerd rapture is right around the corner and that it will start with a chatbot.

          Arguing with you is exhausting but that's my position stated, again. It's possible (and probably a good idea) to stop going to bat for tech companies just because of your personal contempt for religious people.

          but there's no physical law saying AGI is impossible one day

          I didn't say that. I said that LLMs are not it and aren't even really reaching in that direction. They're specialized tools that are hyped into something more than that by, well, tools.
