No it's not pointless, language is important. Cars are not runners. "For all intents and purposes" is a cop out here. We're talking about LLMs, you know language learning models.

Makes sense, you've changed my mind a bit but only the part that consciously understands.

How do you believe they're orthogonal?

Most business communications should be done in email. You want an easily searchable trail, and email lends itself very nicely to communication that doesn't have to immediately be resolved. For everything else casual, people use whateve

That is pretty much the case, but I'm always taken back by how many people believe intelligence = directly replicating human thought. I thought the common consensus was instead that (artificial) intelligence was instead about mimicking

Does that even matter when they still aren't being hired? Hiring statistics for those with disabilities are really horrible. We still hold biases about what makes one "productive" that stem from our very early hunter gatherer

Wow they were really serious about trying to make this approachable for beginners, cat sketches and all. And what better way to test that method than to release it to fortnite fans and seeing where/if they hit a wall.

Cashiers, already replaced by self scanners, fewer and fewer of them are found in stores, even if you do get hired as a cashier you usually make horrible hours now. Food preparation is another one hit huge by automation, where it's bec

That is one of the common outcomes talked about. Certainly nothing more stable right now than being an Electrician or Machinist! I will say though, that for a lot of those jobs human-replicating robotics isn't even necessary. We exagge

I'm not sure this works out in the long run. We're currently using extremely generalized tools here, it's difficult for it to establish any "reasoning" when it does not have a "history" to rely on so to sp

Even those places that do have their own website (as opposed to just relying on Facebook Pages and Google's information sidebar), they just use Squarespace or Shopify. Shopify in particular has also been incorporating a lot of AI into

Do you genuinely believe machines can't handle most of those jobs with ease? The only reason why they haven't already been replaced is because humans can be exceptionally cheap. Much easier to hire somebody to sit at a desk for $1

Copy paste is easily detected and removed. Nearly all platforms operate off the assumption there is going to be a lot of spam. They do not have a single tool to deal with decent text generation.

This gets repeated so much without anyone ever backing it up, it might as well have been a bot post.

And we're begging another corp to please do something for us and are mad when they care instead about their bottom line. Isn't that hilarious?

The idea that you will have to train specifically on "AI skills" is so silly it's almost comedic. You are still going to have to be a "good" writer/programmer/etc, but when anybody is able to easily imitat

I don't know. Part of why we anthropomorphize so much is because we can still feel the physical elements. We pet a dog, we live inside our homes, list goes on. When that is not possible, how does this change people and their valuation

Feel free to replace Next with another framework if that's more you're liking. Same benefits apply. I'm not so sure experts of JS would avoid TS just because they're experts in JS. The opposite even, being experts they k

The more I think about this, the less I agree with it. Think of all the online communication you've had. The good parts. The great but messy blog post that changed your mind about something. Communicating with someone on a social netwo

Funny you mention this because more threads/comments on Reddit are bot created. It's unfortunate that the thing that killed forums is now being filled with bots replying to each other and posting threads. It's alright for now

The bleeding edge will always be in that territory. It still requires a massive investment today to run AI applications locally to produce anywhere near as good results. People are spending upwards of $2000 for a GPU just to get decent

Nextjs (and its contemporaries) work really well with .NET. Toss in your API calls into Next, write a beautiful front end, and now you've got separate front end and back end that works phenomenally together and can be tested separately

I'm not sure it's 10x as nice as competitors, which is the context here. If it were just about space who cares, but when your competitor does the exact same at a much smaller size and ultimately better price too, it's a littl

Not sure this really tracks. Local compute has always been strengthening as a steady incline. Yet we haven't really experienced any sort of pendulum shift, it's always been centralization territory. The reasoning seems mostly obvi

But they’re not creating similar works, unlike AI which IS. Why is this so complicated for you?

That’s always been happening. Only real difference is now you can write a blog post calling it out and nobody cares (and you aren’t assassinated) because everyone is onto the latest hotness. I also don’t think the public unquestionably cons

Depends on impact and depends how easily you can get a full time job. I hate to be the one to break it to you but a lot of places aren’t hiring like they used to. So crunch the numbers, can you support yourself if it’s going to take 8+ mont

What does that matter? Generate as much as you want for your own personal reasons. It's about actually being able to use that content legally (and commercially) that matters to most in this conversation.

Artists get into trouble all the time for producing works very close to something that already exist. That's like the number one reason artists get shunned in the communities they were in.
