Project Hail Mary.

You can get your dog to bump your fist as well.

You can extrapolate that to humanity for the last few centuries or even millennias

So are we fully abandoning reason based robots?

Is the future gonna just be things that guess but just keep getting better at guessing?

I’m disappointed in the future.

What’s sad is that the AI hype did inflate stock prices.

Most c suites’ job is to look out for the interests of investors.

Technically they did a good job. I hate capitalism

Idk about engaging productivity.

If your job is just doing a lot of trivial code that just gets used once, yeah I can see it improving productivity.

If your job is more tackling the least trivial challenges and constantly needing to understand the edge cases or uncharted waters of the framework/tool/language, it’s completely useless.

This is why you get a lot of newbies loving AI and a lot of seniors saying it’s counter productive.

Ah so AI does create jobs, it’s the Zorg logic

While I appreciate them talking in good faith, all these articles that warn against misusing technology really sound out of touch from our reality.

It’s capitalism, of course it would be misused cause of our economic incentives.

When it comes to AI, you either don’t like it or are trying to make money from it, no one expects it to actually work so the entire point is moot.

This is the last paragraph of the article:

AI seems to present a spectacular new slate of opportunities and threats. But, in essence, much of what was true before AI remains so now. Human greed and desire for greater control over nature and other people may lead toward paths of short-term gain. But, if you want a good life when all’s said and done, learn to live well within limits. Live with honesty, modesty, and generosity. AI can’t help you with that.

Yeah no shit

I’m guessing they are trying to catch up to AI via brute force?

I don’t hate it, but apparently they have done polls and often the top result is:

Moist

This is how I know AI doesn’t really work. Give it a real use case in the physical world, it can’t be almost there, either it passes or fails.

People should really appreciate deterministic algorithm cause they could automate things in the real world

Not my all time favorited but truly an unforgettable gem:

The Good Place.

Not only does it tackle the toughest questions in life, its the perfect thought experiment: okay, let’s say you have a heaven, what then?

Bangs gabble gavel.

Gets sack with dollar sign

“Oh good, my laundry is done”

Im on the fence, although I want it to burst, I also think AI has enough use cases for it not to be a bubble. It’s just that all those use cases are evil, hence why I fear it might not burst.

Only positive change google has made in the last decade

if you want to force your way into World War 3 this seems like a brilliant idea.

Feels more like a speed run, the actors of this conflict don’t have many days left.

It simply saw a superior technology and decided to attack.

10 assassinations of relatively innocent people simultaneously. Straight out of Walter white’s playbook when he went full villain.

Gave me brave brew world vibes since they are essentially raising them up to be the foot soldier class. It would be even easier to draft them

I actually wouldn’t mind that. An ad blocking method that just plays ads in the background with the sound muted and not visible on screen.

If google only lets me stream the content I want when I stream content I don’t want, that’s fine, I just don’t want to watch it as it’s my eye balls, not theirs so it’s my choice at the end of the day

No, he pretends to be but deep down he cares more about justice.

Or at least that’s the version I’m used to from Christian Bale’s Batman and the games.

In the dark knight trilogy, Bruce intentionally lives on the streets for a few years and only goes back to use his money to fight injustice.

The whole point of Batman is a rich guy who has a very strong moral compass cause his parents were murdered. It’s not suppose to be realistic, it’s a fantasy.
