If the AI comes up with better ideas, then why would you put yourself at a disadvantage? Especially if people consider it just another tool even if it did all the creative thinking.

You're assuming a level playing field, but what if better trained AIs are only usable by a select group of people wealthy enough to pay for it? It's certainly going to exacerbate the advantage that wealthy kids going to elite univ

If the power saw also drew up the blueprints of the house and chose its design elements, then I'd say the power saw built the house. The difference that makes AI more than just a tool is that it comes up with creative ideas, or at leas

Of course not, if there's evidence of corruption then those involved should be rooted out and prosecuted to the full extent of the law. What I'm saying is that if there's no evidence of corruption, then simply assuming corrup

Neither examples are evidence of corruption. That doesn't mean they're not problematic, but there's no evidence here of a politician receiving a kickback for any of these actions.

by armada651 5mo ago
I think it's actively harmful to your own cause when you suggest corruption without any evidence. Just because politicians don't take action on an issue you think is important doesn't mean they're corrupt. It's more

This is such a motte-and-bailey argument. Whenever people point out LLMs aren't actually intelligent then you're an anti-AI Luddite. But whenever an AI does something catastrophically dumb it's absolved of all responsibility

Indeed, the problem is that people tell lies on the internet. We need to do something about that, because it's interfering with our super-intelligent AI models. /s

Doesn't Windows already do this by default? I can already run models bigger than my GPU VRAM and it will start using up to 50% of my system RAM as "shared memory". This is on a Desktop PC without a shared memory architecture.

It's really unfortunate that the people who run the biggest AI companies don't share your definition of success.
