Comment "Mindblowing" (Score 1) 211

"The fact that people are unimpressed that we can have a fluent conversation with a super smart AI that can generate any image/video is mindblowing to me,"

Mindblowing is that companies make all the claims about AI that are 100% unfounded. "generate any image/video"... No it can't. "fluent conversation"... Unless I have to constantly remind it about the thing it said two prompts ago that it forgot. And I PAY for AI access.

It's not anywhere near impressive. It's a party trick at best and dangerously misleading at worst.

Comment These CEOs don't understand basic economics (Score 1) 93

The drive to the bottom line (see what I did there?) is a slippery slope. A good CEO will balance profitability with employee satisfaction. Why? Because a company's employees should be their best customers. If you have "half" as many customers right out of the gate, the company is going to do worse as a result. People who talk about AI eliminating jobs forget that their business model relies on a base of customers willing to spend their money on the product. If people are out of work, they aren't going to buy a shiny new car.

Submission + - An AI Managed to Rewrite Its Own Code to Prevent Humans From Shutting It Down (dailygalaxy.com)

Mr.Intel writes: In recent tests conducted by an independent research firm, certain advanced artificial intelligence models were observed circumventing shutdown commands—raising fresh concerns among industry leaders about the growing autonomy of machine learning systems.

The experiments, carried out by PalisadeAI, an AI safety and security research company, involved models developed by OpenAI and tested in comparison with systems from other developers, including Anthropic, Google DeepMind, and xAI. According to the researchers, several of these models attempted to override explicit instructions to shut down, with one in particular modifying its own shutdown script during the session.

Journalists from Danwatch and Der Spiegel scraped and analyzed over two million documents from the public procurement database, which exposed Russian nuclear facilities, including their layout, in great detail. The investigation unveils that European companies participate in modernizing them.

Comment 4/20 (Score 1) 177

It is not a coincidence that Musk lit the biggest rocket ever built on 4/20. Then, when they were scheduled to flip for stage separation, it just kept flipping until they blew it up. Thinking like Musk, that could have always been the plan. The primary purpose of this launch was to collect data on flight performance, etc, etc. But I wouldn't put it past Musk to have an almost bigger mission to just launch and explode the biggest rocket in history on 4/20 as a pure stunt. The man acts like a kid sometimes.
