    Lol, AI is shit to begin with. China will probably abandon it and produce some new incredible advancement while the west continues to dump everything into the AI pit and produce no returns. All while our entire economy is just scams from top to bottom.

      Machine learning that's put into use other than creating fugly drawings no one fucking asks for about is actually incredibly useful. But it's all very boring from a consumer viewpoint that boils down to "streamlining industrial processes." It's well within reach to have an algorithm designed to manage how much paper printers within a building use up and when to add more paper so there's as little downtime as possible, but most people don't have to worry about managing 100+ printers. I saw a short clip of some Chinese port using ML to streamline port operations. The algorithms are set to recognize what a shipping container is and where to load and unload the container. Since the containers are standardized, it's not hard to train the algorithms with past data.

      LLMs are trash (for scientific purposes) but AI in general (which is a very very broad category and contains many useful types of software) has great potential for many technological advancements.

      produce no returns

      Hey that isn’t true! Many of the most evil people imaginable are making billions by using spurious “””AI””” claims to pump up the valuations of worthless companies and products!
