Like, over 200 years ago, sort out that individual state issues coinage was bad? Oh right I'm sorry all the old ideas that are bad are good again because history is fake and illiteracy is good. I'd communicate my apology in grunts and hand gestures, fortunately I'm already safe due to the whole illiteracy thing.

If you took the scripts for Beverly Hills Cop or Ghostbusters into a movies studio today they'd say "We can't make these! These are the scripts for Beverly Hills Cop and Ghostbusters, they already made these movies, they're still under copyright."

Really, TeaOnHer, excluding gay guys? Where's the progress? I demand an AI coded gossip site for everyone, about everyone! One with a monopoly on gossip that's the result of capitalist ravenings, run by an egomaniacal psychopath as it expands into vague super conglomerate who's only reason not leak all my info is that they can charge for it if they don't; now that's progress!

Google was already SEO'd to absolute shit for search, why shouldn't the same happen in record time for AI?

"But if we can do everything then we get all the money! Now just sign this Series Q funding check for ten trillion dollars to train a model that will suck the oceans dry and use people as a power source like in The Matrix." - AI Companies

Look at that shit, even a decade, 5 years ago, even 5 years ago that would be a wild headline. The future is here, and stupid.

"$1, for the price of, Just One Dollar!" - Crowd goes crazy, begins frothing at the mouth

In the seminal post apocalyptic novel A Canticle for Leobowitz remaining mobs seize and kill scientists and intellectuals of all kinds after a nuclear apocalypse, blaming them for building the weapons that brought the world low.

Well here is a mob, not acting directly and somewhat rationally for a crime clearly committed; but acting indirectly through a democracy against scientists for the crime of delivering bad news at all. We've killed each other enough that the days of direct holocaust and mobs are mostly gone outside an isolated incident or two, evolved out of the deluded direct mob. Instead the mob in question just burn the metaphorical books; and some even claim it's not their fault, they wouldn't have voted for the leader of the mob just months later, they voted for the mob for other reasons, somewhere, somehow others are to blame, not them.

What a sadly anticlimactic little pith of nothing this example of humanity marches towards its doom as. Collectively we've the power to bring forth great dramas and amazing twists for our imagined dooms, and yet in this real world example of demise humanity punishes those who warn caution as it stands on the shore as the acid seas reach achingly slowly to swallow them whole.

I'm one of the most down on the hyper over valued AI companies and their delusions. But the blowback that's suddenly blowing up is hilarious. Yesterday we had deepfakes with the actors permission being evil, despite CG face replacements being common for twenty years now. Today we have PM in trouble asking what are no doubt utterly pedestrian questions about things he doesn't understand at all. As much as "AI" hallucinates, asking if there's any pros or cons to like, building offshore windfarms or whatever is fucking fine. It'll give you some generic soundbyte worthy answer that's probably the same thing an aide that would go read a few news pieces on it would give you, same difference.

Is AI good at summarizing, or do you just believe it's good because it's convenient? Is it good at providing links, or do you just believe it without checking? Is it really doing what it says it's doing, or do you just have a shortcut in your brain that says confident speech is probably right so you don't have to waste time thinking about it?

For basic idiot questions (hey we all have them) "AI" is a good search engine. For anything even slightly complicated "AI" can confidently bug out and all the "thinking" and citations and other "fixes" are worthless. Just two weeks ago I had Gemini hallucinate and entire scientific paper and confidently provide links to its nonexistence.

This happens a lot. Need an explanation for learning something? AI will explain quaternions as just another spatial dimension, no. It'll give you wrong information on safe sunscreen ingredients, will hallucinate that you're going to die tomorrow from some disease instead of coming to that conclusion yourself when you tell your doctor that you have lupus, etc.

In short modern transformer model "AI"s have become artificial politicians, some"one" that will spew utter nonsense straight to people's faces with the virtual equivalent of a nod and a smile, and people will believe it and blame everyone else when it's wrong. We already have more than enough of those thank you "AI" companies, you worthless cunts.

You've become such narcissistic, power grabbing douchebags that you somehow took what was a normal thing a few years ago and made random people irate about it, lawyers at the world's biggest IP firm nervous about it, and PR people at one of the world's biggest PR firms nervous about it. All because you think it's funny that you're the bullies now instead of the jocks and want to flaunt it.

The government will continue to fire people until the official numbers are better, exactly like the people voted for!
