It’s funny, the vision I and many people had about AI was more like what we see in Star Trek, where the technology radically drives up the knowledge of individuals. But on our current trajectory, Star Trek will just be Idiocracy in space with people asking the computer how to use the shower. Certainly I’m missing something?
Viss@jerry its becuase the people that made the AI that got the traction were vc bros who followed the minimum viable product school of thought, and were happy creating a system that tells people what it thinks they want to hear as opposed to the truth and objective reality
the enterprise ships computer is happy calling someone an idiot if theyre an idiot
frontier llms arent

Unbro@syrupsplashin @Viss @jerry That's what the bros want you to believe - that "AGI" will "emerge" as more and more billions are burnt.
Spoiler: it won't. We will never build sentient machines; there are no sentient aliens; and we will never emigrate off world.
