Wouldn’t be fully autonomous then since people would be a requirement.

I’m surprised that people find this surprising. It’s not like you can have something new every day, at some point your menu is going to repeat so why not pick some favourites and stick to them?

The GUIfication of LLMs. Yuck. I’d better join the local model camp before bad ideas like this catch on and fully nerf this tech.

Not arguing with that. My point is that the gap between humans helping it and it being fully autonomous is much bigger than you would think. Even if you design a system with a bunch of robotic arms and other equipment, the AI then has to be

Hmm who am I going to believe, a podcast or every book and article ever written on the subject. Spam and filters are a great example because spam filters are already AI. Literally neural networks trained to recognize spam. LLMs are great at

Missing a few steps like money and being able to open the delivery box and assemble the parts. It’s kind of like that Sagan quote about making an apple pie from scratch.

The brand new flushing toilets that belonged to London’s upper class weren’t the primary cause of the great stink. The much bigger contributor was the other 99.9% of the population which had doubled in only 50 years preceding the stink. The

Are you arguing that an LLM will be used in process control or statistical modelling? Or that someone will be running code in an interpreter that just happens to interact with those systems? Because there’s no way that someone will use one

The only reason we’re still using coal is due to run away safetyism. That’s like the number one example of how being overly cautious or irrationally stigmatizing something when you should have just kept improving the technology can result i

So NA megafauna had no problems with wolves but people come along and it’s game over. Still not buying this. Why did horses die out but not bison or deer? How did mammoth go extinct while elephants didn’t when elephants faced more technolog

And North and South America aren’t?

Might as well blame any other animal then

Automated pen testing is already a thing. The same technology that improves it can also be used to harden systems against attack.

That’s a pretty weak argument since it can be applied to anything. eg there is a mistake in this process and people died as a result

Well this is now top of my reading list, thanks!

It’s just a new tool. It isn’t outsourcing. It sounds like the person you’re replying to uses it the same way I do which is basically as a way to quickly brainstorm solutions. It acts as a rubber duck that forces you to explain the problem

If you view all beliefs as provisional then you’ll probably accomplish nothing. You have to go all in sometimes even just to figure out if you’re wrong.

Which domesticated animals would those be in north and South America?

So what’s up with Africa then? Those ones didn’t taste good or what?

So how old does the tech need to be?

You just described the appropriate solution to this problem: better visual separation. You don’t need to add friction for people that like voice chats, just make it clear what you’re clicking on so you don’t have an oopsie

Reads a bit like when people would complain about having to use a mouse back in the late 80s / early 90s. There’s ton of stuff you’ll never be able to do in VR without some kind of controller with buttons and joy sticks. Making the con

Immersive movies are gimmicky. When you add all of the things that make it an enjoyable experience it just becomes a video game. If you don’t then it’s just a theme park ride where you’re sitting in a cart being wheeled around while things

I’m all for expressing yourself socially but we do need to speak a common language to some extent otherwise those social interactions will quickly breakdown and never recur. If you want to create and maintain friendships you have to put in

No. Automate the shit out of this. Call centre jobs should not exist. If you have humanity’s best interests in mind then you should be all in on automation instead of trying to institutionalize miserable and meaningless jobs.
