> Where does Google gets its information now? The feeder pipeline has died.
The bar has raised now. People will ask the questions on SO whose answers they couldn't find from anywhere else including AI.
- addandsubtract 4y agoCorrection: the AI will ask the questions it couldn't find a high enough confidence answer to. We are all now working for the AI to find niche scraps of knowledge that haven't been indexed.
- timini 4y ago^ This. we will all become servants to the giant AI, feeding it more and more levels of detail and obscurity
- billychuck21st 4y agomaybe people get paid to answer questions that AI can't answer, can be a new eco system
- mclightning 4y ago30 years old, engineer here. I am starting to get really scared. I don't mean that for my job security. We are just starting to observe societal effects of social media. We haven't reached the era where we, as an entire species, recognise and regulate it impacts legally & properly. I am starting to feel like we are losing it against the machine as a species. I don't fear being replaced, but I feel the culture getting mangled in a way we won't be able to recover some things, because it will be too late. It is not a ring-wing, left-wing political thing. But some sort of innovator's dilemma. We are like cornering ourselves into an innovator's dilemma as a species.
- joshspankit 4y agoYes and: I’d argue that whoever has been distorting social media to further their own goals (for example the Cambridge Analyticas) has already mangled culture enough that the transition to AI might be imperceptible.
- RyEgswuCsn 4y agoI had similar thoughts. The next evolution towards general AIs would be the implementation of curiosity.
