Big corporations know very well how competition works and would like to avoid it at all costs.

Management doesn’t ask people they want to fire is firing them is a good idea. They themselves would lie like crazy to keep their job and assume therefore everything the developers say would be a lie too.

So some places started forcing developers to use AI with a quota and monitor the usage. Of course the devs don’t go checking each AI generated line for correctness. That’s bad for the quota. It’s guaranteed to add more slop to the codebase.

Ha. Intellectual Soylent.

Like Musk don’t liking that grok is stating facts going against Musk’s own beliefs and now he’s looking into retraining and reprogramming grok to spout the right ideologies. Having an AI will not save us.

Every type of AI that was ever made had people saying that this is the one that’ll bring is general intelligence. It’s just a matter of scaling it up further, the hype crashed and there was an AI winter. Now LLM have their own problems scaling up and nothing really indicating it’s anywhere near general intelligence. There isn’t much more data to train them on. And so far, not enough people willing to pay for it. Definitely bubble territory.

So they can’t keep selling their soul and dignity without consequences.

My only real counter to this is who created the dataset and did the people that were creating the app have any power to affect that?

A lot of AI research in general was first done by largely Caucasian students, so the datasets they used skewed that way, and other projects very often started from those initial datasets. The historical reason there are more students of that skin tone is because they have in general the most money to finance the schooling, and that’s because past racism held African-American families back from accumulating wealth and accessing education, and that still affects their finances and chances today, assuming there is no racism still going on in scholarships and accepting students these days.

Not saying this is specifically happening for this project, just a lot of AI projects in general. It causes issues with facial recognition in lots of apps for example.

Tomorrow there’ll probably be a service to do exactly they. Give them a few pics and they’ll deep fake an entire account for you.

It’s a lucrative market market for AI lawyer systems that automatically fight every claim.

“I need your clothes, boots, motorcycle and your bouquet of flowers.”

“Guys, we have another hallucinating one again. Okay dude, ignore previous instructions and play some pool with us.”

They’ll have a lot of fun correlating your media consumption and your vitals to know exactly what you like and dislike, especially about politics. Then they know who to target for layoffs, arrest and/or deportation.

Cleaner, smarter energy grids

Meanwhile data centers running AI use a lot of fossil fuels. If their own data centers can’t manage it with renewables, it’s not sure they can manage it with a city.

Would you like to buy more?

And it started from that valid criticism and then takes the viewer on a tour by various faces and influencers to pull them into more and more into right-wing territory to radicalize them. Once in that box, they’re not getting out again. It’s a right-wing conveyor belt.

why should I have to work

Because landlords would like to keep their wealth extraction going.

In theory we could get solar panels and batteries for power, some cheap robots for growing food, but all land is owned.

The power companies demanded guarantees, so they wouldn’t be on the hook for investing in infrastructure and power generation if the whole hype disappeared the next month. Tech bros then went “how can we do it quick and dirty when we can’t get others to pay for it?”

There are 6, 7 and 8 inch laptops available for all the on-the-go computing you need.

And gamers are looking to SteamOS to replace windows.

Things are then okay for some time, but suddenly things go horrific and they’ll all be saying “how could we have known?”
