Predictive text algorithms will not wipe out humanity. 🙄

The problem isn't the technology. The problem is the people losing their minds about it.
-
The Artificial Intelligence field is much broader than that limited definition of yours.
-
And yet the only tech any company is interested in using is LLMs, which are about to fall flat on their face. What tech in the field is close to being able to think for itself and truly act autonomously?

I can tell you don't use AI. It's frightening how good it is. Edited "good"😂
-
That's just true believer talk. It really is trash.
-
It's frightening how God it is.
Intentional?
-
Written by AI?

That doesn't really count, lol. The reality is, we've already killed ourselves, we just won't admit it yet. The climate effects we're seeing today aren't even from recent emissions. Mr. Bones Wild Ride has only just begun, and there's no getting off.

Maybe the Nobel should have went to you.

The prize has nothing to do with these claims. Furthermore, past accomplishments do not make a person infallible. Nice ad hominem, though.

Such a lame hot take. Do you understand how language models work? To claim there’s no higher order understanding is frankly laughable.
-
If you legitimately believe llms "understand" anything at all, I really don't believe there's anything to discuss with you. That is a completely absurd notion at this stage.

Well, why don’t you argue with the guy who spearheaded the backpropagation algorithm, spends his whole day thinking about it and who won the Nobel Prize in Physics, rather than me? I’m not saying some fanciful notion that isn’t supported by evidence. If they just predict text, how can they solve riddles theyve never encountered in their training materials? Are you claiming the logic solution is just text statistics?
