"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"
A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.
AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

Thanks for the example.
So although I do agree this is a good thing, I wouldn’t call it revolutionary. If a tsunami is predicted, knowing a day or two earlier isn’t going to revolutionize response, it would help but it’s not in the same scale as being able to give live updates via the internet vs the speed or a newspaper.

From the article:
How do we know that the improvements isn’t from better communication instead of better prediction systems?
I might have missed it but the article doesn’t talk about how many lives saved can be attributed to AI, just that tsunami response has gotten better.
