This claim is probably the last gasp of AI hype before the big Hindenburg style implosion of the AI market. The fundamental problem is that there is NO AI. What we have is II, Imitation Intelligence. Current AI emulates things. It can put celebrity faces on pr0n pictures. It can fake paintings that look like an artists work. It can create faux videos of movie stars. But it can't do complex math. When it writes code, it writes programs that look legit, but the code is so buggy that it slows the programmer down by 20% fixing it. But the worst is that it creates fake facts. When it writes research papers it makes up citations. When it writes court cases, it makes up precedents. Because it is only IMITATING the real thing. The human brain has dozens of complex processes going on that backstop our intelligence. We track facial expressions when communicating to guage feedback. We listen for stress in a persons voice. But above all we have a quality control function that reviews our ideas and rejects BS. One important facet of that is our conscience. It keeps us from lying. It keeps us from killing each other. Current AI has no conscience. So it makes things up and asserts them as true because they look like other things that are true. Then it stores the imaginary facts as true in its database. Which eventually causes it to start "hallucinating". It has no ethics, and often starts threatening to kill all humans. The large scale adoption of our current II ( not AI) is going to be a major disaster. It will probably take over creative tasks like story writing and movie making where "looks real" is good enough. But it won't take over companies or cause widespread unemployment. Not for another couple of decades.

Right before the company implodes because the AI software was making up imaginary revenue and putting it on the books. AI is decades away from the ability to do most jobs.

Nice try, but the hype bubble is already bursting. AI iis failing everywhere that accuracy matters. It can generate videos and stories. But it makes up facts and gets math wrong. We are about to witness a Hindenburg style fiery implosion of AI that will cause a world-wide recession due to all the investment losses.

This reminds me of the time in 2000 when Bill Gates said that the subscription based Microsoft Network would replace the internet in 2years. Zero credibility

That's not what the article was about.

This is like discussing the price of competing tuxedos for people wearing clothes made of leaves and twigs. Watch Ewan McGregor's documentary "The long way down" to get a glimpse of African infrastructure.

Homeless can opener. Invert can. Rub the top of the can back and forth on concrete. But be prepared to slip a finger underneath as you lift it to hold the lid on and avoid spillage.

No way? How about nuclear plants generating power to make ammonia, then burning that in vehicles. Zero carbon, almost no new infrastructure, just new nozzles on gas pumps and new valves on gas tanks. But this has never been about solutions, its all about extortion.

Why hasn't anyone jumped on the obvious win-win application for AI? Companions for the elderly. It would need to be zero setup. Pull it out of the box and plug it in and it starts talking. I live in a community packed with isolated elderly people stewing in depression and loneliness. This is a vast untapped market.

This is one of those problems that, while real, can be unintentionally hilarious. What, you mean that pR0n of Princess Leia doing 100 wookies in an hour wasn't genuine?

Now I don't have to learn spanish!

Well, this wss predictsble. The Globsl Warmi g Boogryman has become a laughingstock, nobody attends the COP conferences, EV sales have tanked, the ice caps are growing, and deaths from extreme weather are way down. Quickly, Robin, pour more snake oil into the climate models and lets crank out some really ludicrously extreme predictions. THAT is sure to scare yhecrubes into sprnding trillions on windmills again. Sorry scammers, but after THIRTY SEVEN YEARS of telling us the global warming boogeyman will kill us all in TEN YEARS, your credibility is shot to h3ll. It doesn't help that your most ardent prophets ate buying beachfront property and flyingvto the superbowl in thousands of private jets. If global warming was real, then on day one we would have started building nuclear plants and using their power to generate Ammonia to burn in vehicles. It is hydrogen power without the storage problems, is already made in industrial quantities, and requires no new infrastructure other than new nozzles on pumos and new valves on gas tanks. But this has never been about solving a problem. It is about using the global warming boogeyman to scare the rubes into accepting centralized totalitarian socialist control over their lives ( and scamming trillions of dollars for pointless investments). Here's some free advice. The global warming noogeyman is dead. Exaggerating more won't revive him. Try a new dcam. Tell people that the crab nebula has come to life and is moving towards earth. Itvis attracted to CO2 andvifcwe don't eliminate greenhouse gasses itvwill eat the earth. Hey, it's more credible than global warming at this point.

What a fascist. The next thing you know, he will be mandating TWO ply toilet paper in agency bathrooms. Will the oppression never cease?

I have no doubt that as our society decays, and homeless tranq addict zombies fill the streets, the government will "solve" the problem by making digital glasses that hide reality from us mandatory like COVID masks.

The population has grown wiser. They aren't falling for the "give me all your money or an invisible boogeyman will eat you in ten years" pitch anymore. Climate prophets like Bill Nye the science lie and the Algore have made so many dramatic predictions that have fallen flat that the public, in general, view climate alarmists as con men and thieves. Ignoring cheap and easy solutions, like burning ammonia in cars (zero carbon) and failing to embrace cheap and reliable next-gen nuclear reactors instead of unreliable solutions that cost trillions of dollars has pretty much cemented that opinion. Climate grifters need a new scam, like maybe telling people the crab nebula will come and eat us if we don't spend trillions of dollars on solar panels to scare it away. What, you don't believe in the crab? You science denier!
