> where it matters most: commercialization.
It begs the question because both its premise and assertion are already wrong. Has AI improved the industrial capacity of the US in order to improve the lives of its citizens? No it hasn't. Has AI increased the wealth of its citizens by being able to do laundry or any household task in a generalized way? No it hasn't. The only thing it's really done is make very narrow slices of white-collar work more fungible. In what way has AI been able to address existing shortcomings of the US?

- mrhottakes 5mo agoGlad I'm not the only one that noticed this.

- hackable_sand 5mo agoWhat capacity? How?
- bigyabai 5mo agoComputer vision certainly did. But LLMs? That needs citation.
- sthwrhstb 5mo agoAssertions made without evidence can be rejected without evidence. t. literally works on AI for industrial applications

- vasco 5mo agoYou better have some sources for declaring that industrial capacity hasn't increased. The Fed reports around 8% penetration of AI in manufacturing already, but in my opinion it's too early for grand declarations like that without data. https://www.federalreserve.gov/econres/notes/feds-notes/monitoring-ai-adoption-in-the-u-s-economy-20260403.html https://www.federalreserve.gov/econres/notes/feds-notes/moni...

- dragonwriter 5mo ago> Have you happened to purchase anything in the past 12 months, and looked at the Fed's inflation numbers? The Fed doesn't issue inflation numbers. The usually cited headline inflation numbers (CPI) are from the Department of Labor’s Bureau of Labor Statistics, the ones used by the Fed as an input to monetary policy decisions (PCE) are issued by the Department of Commerce’s Bureau of Economic Analysis.
- magicalist 5mo ago> The Fed reports around 8% penetration of AI in manufacturing already, but in my opinion it's too early for grand declarations like that without data Based on a survey if the business uses AI "in any of its business functions". And for all uses of what they consider to be AI, not just LLMs.
