Can we please stop saying "AI is doing this", "AI is doing that", and instead point out at the companies and individuals that are shoveling AI down our throats as the ones that are decimating industries or destroying job

I have to admit that this is the first time I found something made by an AI ... funny.

Is this seriously trying to portray OpenAI/Altman or Nvidia/Huang as unlikely everyday dudes who reluctantly take up a challenge and rise to become heroes? I never stop being amazed at how people love to present rich, well connect

Came here to complain about the same. I downloaded the app, but it needs an online account. What's the whole purpose of making it open source and downloadable, if it doesn't work offline?

I'm so surprised that only one comment mentions ELIZA. History repeats itself as a farce... or a very conscious scam.

That definitely depends on where you are. In Germany it's quite common, and in other countries too.

The fact that the AT Protocol relies on everyone having a domain name, which is a centralized system over which few people have control, and about whose workings most people have no clue about, is problematic. Also impractical, once we cons

I used to run a BBS from my bedroom when I lived with my parents. I had attached a phone to the same line, and replaced the speaker with a led, so I would know someone was connecting because the led would blink intermittently for a few seco

I found the article really insightful. I think what he's talking about, without saying it explicitly, is to create "AI as scripting language", or rather, "language as scripting language".

"Books as civilization" implies that those peoples who had not "created" books (or something similar) were not civilized. Quite eurocentric.

The fact that this whole discussion happens in english, partially explains why there is a discussion at all. The whole problem could have been avoided if the development of computers had been a more international effort.
