The current "approaches" will not give any scalable results as they ignore basic physics. It's at best a very power-hungry gambling with database entries, at worst a noisy and expensive waste of time. I think that it's fitting to call users of these things for gamblers, and the tokens they use and pay for are the same as in gambling, and they are all gambling for a good result. In the end, the house always wins.

Dune's Mentats.

So, this is in the process of being regulated as gambling?

These "tech" companies do not have "leaders" who think. They only want to destroy. That is their mindset.

This is sounding more and more like sportsball but for people who align themselves in some way with the "tech"-industry. Whatever these companies produce is mostly high-cost entertainment anyhow. They keep ignoring physics, so their "solutions" are unreliable when before a simple db-lookup would give the same result every time, we now are gambling like in a casino, and the house always win.

Or Quake 2, where you are using communication lasers to alert the fleet of your presence. It's a common sci-fi trope.

By using "pretrained models" or whatever entropic approximations can only be a waste of energy. It's even more of a gamble than what it tries to prevent. People have truly not spent ten minutes reading up on basic physics.

Crazy amount of psychopaths downvoting this. I guess mind-altering drugs are real.

They never hire for skills, they hire for agendas.

Let him use these garbage "tools" and see where they will get him.

I've been the CTO of two companies, and I always look at the portfolio and ask the tough technical questions early. It makes hiring superfast and weeds out all the pretenders. I've made my best hires over random social media posts because I could tell they knew what they were doing and were trying to achieve things that aligns with what I need. Regular "HR-led" hiring starts in the wrong end with the "vibecheck" which of course all technical people will fail miserably.

Where is the liability?

it's important to know if they are leading by example.

They might pay a "fine" (bribe) to some court system somewhere to get away with it if it gets that far, but nobody will ever end up in jail for as long as the system is corrupt.

As long as someone is willing to pay (and in this case the US taxpayer unwillingly through the government), why should they even care?
