How worried should we be about AIβs effects on the grid?Β»

𧡠β¦tell me what you want, but AI is an unnecessary use of energy (see above), just like cryptocurrency. Doctrine promises packed into a lot of effort to get hold of data in order to exploit it again.
Β»Googleβs greenhouse gas emissions jump 48% in five years:
Google's 2030 "Net zero" target looks increasingly doubtful as AI use soars.Β«

𧡠β¦I already pointed out in the above toots that AI is nothing more than blind faith but hope apparently sells very well.
Β»AI trained on AI garbage spits out AI garbage:
AI models work by training on huge swaths of data from the internet. But as AI is increasingly being used to pump out web pages filled with junk content, that process is in danger of being undermined.Β«

𧡠β¦I already mentioned above that the technical effort of artificial intelligence pollutes the environment. It is the same with Bitcoin and no progress is being made.

𧡠β¦many IT people (including me) believe that the boom around A.I. will take a similar or even the Crypto-Currency. But how long will the hype last in order to beg for money through hope by selling hopes to investors who do the same?

𧡠β¦as above, AI is just an environmentally damaging waste of energy:
Β«Tesla's AI supercomputer has a Silicon Valley town rushing to meet surging electricity demand:

𧡠β¦that AI is damaging the world for the financial gain of a few power-hungry people is too often ignored. Progress for us lazy has not yet brought about energy
Β«Al Gore roasts corporations and politicians, comparing their climate crisis promises to βNew Yearβs resolutionsβΒ»

𧡠β¦I see it exactly the same way and that their marketing is a sale of the manufacturer's belief.
Β«The AI expert who says artificial general intelligence is nonsense:
Artificial intelligence has more in common with ants than humans, says Neil Lawrence. Only by taking a more nuanced view of intelligence can we see how machines will truly transform society.Β»

π§΅β¦the companies will abandon AI test integrations due to a lack of benefit, which will put the hyperscalers under even more pressure to increase their prices. They will then be forced to increase their prices, which will then cause all the AI ββstartups that have relied on the hyperscalers to pull out. Thanks @frumble for sharing the link.

The Subprime AI Crisis
None of what I write in this newsletter is about sowing doubt or "hating," but a sober evaluation of where we are today and where we may end up on the current path. I believe that the artificial intelligence boom β which would be better described as a generative AI boom
𧡠β¦as mentioned above, I am critical of A.I. and I am not alone, its experts are too:
Β«Large language models not fit for real-world use, scientists warn β even slight changes cause their world models to collapse.
Large language model AIs might seem smart on a surface level but they struggle to actually understand the real world and model it accurately, a new study finds.Β»
#realworld #largelanguagemodels #llm #gpt4 #ai #notfit #artificialintelligence #smart #llms
𧡠β¦the fact that AI spies based on its need to collect data is nothing new. It is therefore clear that this is also used for espionage in society. High-tech for backward governments, no matter which and where.
Β«Cybersecurityβs oversimplification problem: Seeing AI as a replacement for human agencyΒ»
𧡠β¦AI needs slavery to classify stolen data:
Β«Labelers training AI say they're overworked, underpaid and exploited by big American tech companies:

Labelers training AI say they're overworked, underpaid and exploited by big American tech companies
Digital workers in Kenya had to sift through horrific online content to train AI, but say they were underpaid, overworked, and got inadequate mental health support. So they're fighting back.
𧡠β¦the topic is not new, see Toots above. The EU is not innocent and behaves just like other power-hungry states on earth.

𧡠β¦in addition to the above toot series regarding misinformation using AI currently in the media. If this isn't a technique to unsettle people in order to maintain and seize power from multimillionaires?

𧡠β¦the way AI is being misused to misinform the web has been clear for a long time, but to substantiate it arguably, I think we need this The Guardian text.

𧡠β¦if one thief steals from the other, then the stolen thief is not innocent but likes to market himself as such. Call it marketing or propaganda that ignores your private sphere.

𧡠β¦the AI (as mentioned several times above) is a tool for miss information, is slowly being scientifically viewed.

𧡠β¦the long-running ideological war it is the same ideological war on human knowledge and expertise. In some cases AI is being used to directly supercharge this effort:

And Joe Rogan as the alpha bro of all tinfoil hat wearers has just blurted out that the second coming of Jesus may well be as AI.
After all: Jesus was born by a virgin, and what could be more virgin than a computer, the bozo asked.
Yo, Joe: there is nothing divine in the frivolous waste of energy known as #AI or in the #AIslop it creates.
Try to think for yourself again, mate.
PS: how virgin is a random malware-infested computer?
