- darkstarsys 10mo ago"Was genuinely hoping to find there was some interesting research going on, but it’s all just this "calculus"" -- everyone, in 1670
- yeasku 10mo agoImagine putting ai and google at the same level as calculus.
- djmips 10mo agoFor one it's an analogy - for two the jury's out.
- yeasku 10mo agoHow is a good analogy if calculus is known to be fundamental in our understanding of the world and for ai the jury is out?
- xnx 10mo agoGive it 20 years and AI may be the most important thing mankind has ever created.
- yeasku 10mo agoI have been reading the same since the 70s. Sorry if I think your comment is a joke.
- bigstrat2003 10mo agoAnd it may not be. We need to judge it on what it can do today, not 20 years from now. And today it's pretty useless.
- xnx 10mo agoIt's been pretty great for me. I don't know Python but was able to use Google Antigravity to make a script that composites meteor trails from hours of video footage. This would've easily taken me 12 hours without AI. It also wrote a grease monkey script that automates a website I use.
- thunky 10mo ago> today it's pretty useless. This is quite the statement. Even my elderly father finds it incredibly useful. And he doesn't even know how to turn up his iPhone ringer (which BTW it helps him with).
- bigstrat2003 10mo agoYeah it's insane to me to claim that AI (so far: useless, may one day get good) is remotely in the same ballpark as calculus (a proven technique which has led to a ton of useful stuff in the world).
