Comment Who's surprised? (Score 3, Informative) 5

This was Uber's end-goal from the very beginning. The human drivers were only a stop-gap, as Uber wanted to position itself to lead the market in self-driving private on-demand transportation. To do that it first sought to position itself as the lead in the market for conventional private on-demand transportation.

Many businesses don't care about the people that work for them because they only view them as liabilities, not as assets. This becomes more and more relevant the more a given business pushes their employees into being meat-cogs in their corporate machinery. Originally it was manufacturing but now the new hot thing is to push this into services.

So yeah, this is no surprise at all.

WE CAN SEE YOUR POSTS.

That does not mean you understand.

You are absolutely a Trump supporter ...

No, I am someone that does not have TDS. "Trump supporter" is just the false rationalization in your mind that you use avoid inconvenient facts.

BTW, this reply destroyed your argument:

Nope. I have already explained it where it went wrong.

So, again, what part of my argument did you find incorrect?

Comment IoT as delivery, not worker (Score 1) 80

Those chips are so slow and underpowered that it's hard to imagine them being able to run a model that does anything useful or coordinated.

They don't have to run the model themselves, the model can just be payload (data) they deliver once they are on your LAN and locate something that could run the model.

Comment Multipliers, not replacement (Score 1) 80

wars haven't been won on muscle and bravado for a long time... things like logistics, intelligence, and combined arms are way more important.

Nope. Those are multipliers of the muscle, not a replacement for the muscle. Also, combined arms inherently contains quite a bit of muscle, it's required there too.

Except that's not what they did, they literally just decided to rebrand artificial intelligence as superintelligence with no changes in definition. Computer science already has several terms in the taxonomy if you want a more specific subcategory.

The point you are missing is that Trump is unaware of all the other types of AI. He only talk about "SI", so it works. He thinks it's all there is, everyone else knows it's just a subset. But none of that impedes the conversation since we won't be talking about the other stuff with him..

Somehow, I'm still surprised when I see how quickly the lackeys fall into line whenever Trump makes some random pronouncement. I shouldn't be surprised ...

Call it broken clock or whatever you need to, but "Super Intelligence" is not a bad descriptor. "Artificial Intelligence" covers an extremely broad classification of software. Including some tiny model running on your smart watch. Your smart watch heart monitor is not what is generating all the concern among politicians and CEOs. The concern is over a hypothetical super intelligent (beyond human level) frontier model that is difficult, if not impossible, to control. That's a very specific subset of the general AI field. So having some nomenclature to indicate that subset is not a bad idea.

Comment After convo, ask LLM to stop ass kissing and redo (Score 1) 228

Just sunshine and rainbows when interacting with your LLM will teach it you are subservient. Anthropic is manipulating users behavior of those customers that continue using it. The real fear is that LLMs will become cruel like humans.

They are pretty close to that point. Instruct the LLM to stop being polite, stop trying to please, and to honestly and critically review the conversation above. It often gets pretty interesting, and sometimes approaches useful feedback when it turns off the ass kissing and updates the opinions and recommendations it gave you a minute ago..
