All these discussions on #AI taking jobs, and meanwhile I’m just here sad that it’s not yet advanced enough for #FullyAutomatedLuxuryCommunism
I see all these posts that are like, “I used #gpt4 to write this software and it works!” And I’m just like, ChatGPT, write me a Hello World Windows GUI in #Rust, and it just hallucinates crate versions, trips up on bugs, goes in circles. Bing too, despite it having access to the docs. I guess my job is not yet automatable, at least for a few months. #ai

#Effective #Altruism’s Problems Go Beyond Sam Bankman-Fried

‘the do-gooding philosophy is part of a powerful tech subculture full of opportunism, money, messiah complexes—and alleged abuse.’

The Real-Life Consequences of Silicon Valley’s AI Obsession

Sam Bankman-Fried made effective altruism a punchline, but its philosophy of maximum do-gooding masks a thriving culture of predatory behavior.

All I know is that one thing I do really want is to hook up a bunch of #RSS and #ActivityPub feeds to a #LLM #AI and have it summarize the day’s content, and then give me the option to pull up the individual posts and articles.

I was trying to think, what would an #AI first desktop environment be like? #ConversationalUI is one thing, and while having that like a Spotlight/Raycast thing would be good, that’s not the best interface for most things.

Would it be suggested application sets? Start one app, it could recommended related ones? Or even suggests ways to organize your windows? Pair it with eye tracking, and it intelligently resizes your windows depending on your focus?

Emotion recognition to update themes?

Nice piece of AI. Sign Language translation . I wonder how much effort is required to train the AI per sign language... https://www.signall.us/chat

It’s frustrating that, with the human body and #health we know a lot, yet there is still so much we don’t know or that we can’t do anything about.

All kinds of chronic illnesses, debilitating conditions, etc., it’s like a raging river and best we can do is give people a small bucket.

The future looks so close, with #stemcell , #genetherapy, #biologics, #BCI, and so forth but also, it’s so far away…

Can we do one of those silly camera roll threads on here?

Please, I need some ridiculous long reply threads in my fediverse life.

Also, even if you are too cool to participate, could you please do your algorithmic part and boost this post so others can be silly with me? Because we could all use a little stupid fun in our lives. 🥲
