AI = sqrt((pc)^2^ + (m~0~c^2^ )^2^ ) - m~0~c^2^

[–] SendMePhotos@lemmy.world 14 points 3 months ago

Let's be real, AI actually costs energy doesn't it?

[–] jayk@lemmy.ca 5 points 3 months ago

only at rest

[–] very_well_lost@lemmy.world 125 points 3 months ago (3 children)

This has gotta be satire, right?

....right?

[–] FartMaster69@lemmy.dbzer0.com 119 points 3 months ago (1 children)

With LinkedIn it’s impossible to tell.

[–] nickhammes@lemmy.world 33 points 3 months ago

Every time I see something this funny on LinkedIn, I remember that it would be an insult to the creative genius of the satirist who wrote it not to laugh react it. Have I laugh reacted something meant seriously? Probably, but it's for the greater good.

[–] practisevoodoo@lemmy.world 15 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I have had students like this. Have asked me for references and everything.

[–] b_tr3e@feddit.org 6 points 3 months ago (1 children)

So, have they been like that before they took your classes?

[–] practisevoodoo@lemmy.world 6 points 3 months ago

They seemed normal in class, very keen.
Then it's dissertation time and they want to build levitating islands to solve global warming and getting into my office when I'm not there to leave weird notes on my monitor complaining that the department isn't responding to their 'funding proposal' emails.

[–] RogueBanana@piefed.zip 6 points 3 months ago

Pretty sure it is. I remember seeing the same post a while ago where someone mentioned it's a troll account.

[–] iAmTheTot@sh.itjust.works 62 points 3 months ago

I need this to be satire.

[–] bridgeenjoyer@sh.itjust.works 47 points 3 months ago

Jfc this HAS to be satire. No one is this dumb. Wait yes they are. But still.

[–] tired_n_bored@lemmy.world 43 points 3 months ago (1 children)

He even wrote that with ChatGPT 😭

Fuck outta here with your β€” oh wait mine are en dashes carry on

[–] g0d0fm15ch13f@lemmy.world 39 points 3 months ago (1 children)

By including AI in the equation, it symbolizes

Fuckin lmao

[–] perishthethought@piefed.social 32 points 3 months ago (1 children)

It's a real LI post:

https://www.linkedin.com/feed/update/urn:li:activity:7239360707425697792/

But I just read it and all of the author's replies to comments and I am still only about 70% sure he's joking. He must be though, right? He's an undergrad at Georgia Tech.

[–] Flax_vert@feddit.uk 32 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) (1 children)

You're missing out the best part. In the original post there's a PHD dude from MIT who just replies with "what"

[–] InFerNo@lemmy.ml 5 points 3 months ago (1 children)

COUNTLESS sleepless nights

this bothers me in so many ways I wasn't ready for

[–] VOwOxel@discuss.tchncs.de 24 points 3 months ago (1 children)

If E=mcΒ² and E=mcΒ²+AI, it follows that AI=0. Which is an understatement because it doesn't just achieve nothing, it achieves regression.

dude studying neuroscience, yet using less than 3% of the brain

[–] fckreddit@lemmy.ml 14 points 3 months ago

That's because the rest of the brain is busy proompting LLMs.

Undergraduate

Neuroscience

What gives them any credibility when it comes to computer science? The Dunning-Kruger is strong with this bubble.

Edit: After scrolling through their comment responses and comments under other posts, I'm fairly certain they're just trolling.

[–] FooBarrington@lemmy.world 11 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Machine learning models use artificial neurons. "Neuroscience" contains all the letters from "neurons". "Computer science" is missing an n.

Who's stupid now?

[–] myotheraccount@lemmy.world 5 points 3 months ago

This is a flawless argument

[–] GissaMittJobb@lemmy.ml 16 points 3 months ago

This is copied from an older LinkedIn-comment, and as such I'm pretty convinced this one is satire.

The original though, I'm not so sure.

[–] Diddlydee@feddit.uk 16 points 3 months ago

Should've got some sleep so you're thinking clearly, because that is some empty bullshit.

[–] AllNewTypeFace@leminal.space 16 points 3 months ago

The stupid, it burns

[–] atopi@piefed.blahaj.zone 16 points 3 months ago

The AI actually represents the extra energy use caused overcomplicating things by adding the coolest new thing without thinking about what it is and how it might help

[–] 9point6@lemmy.world 15 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

I think we should turn this guy's mass into energy by pelting him towards the sun at the speed of light

I'm sad that I can't just assume this guy is joking

[–] AeonFelis@lemmy.world 14 points 3 months ago (1 children)

One could use Bayes' law, replacing B with I:

P(A|I) = P(I|A)P(A)/P(I)

Likedin is a stand up comedy platform.

"symbolizes"

You made a fucking logo and it sucks. Countless sleepless nights better spent at art school.

[–] lessthanluigi@lemmy.sdf.org 9 points 3 months ago

The AI ideology has gone too far

[–] melsaskca@lemmy.ca 8 points 3 months ago

Some guy in the 80's was pushing the same thing but with "E=mcΒ² + Texas Instruments Calculators". This is old news. /s

I actually got pretty much exactly this text when playing around with ChatGPT asking it to come up with inspiring tech bullshit.

Sometimes I worry that one day someone will say the smartest thing I've ever heard in my life and I will laugh at them.

Because I already don't understand dumb people

[–] Gurei@sh.itjust.works 5 points 3 months ago

Would have been tastier with A1.

[–] Juice@midwest.social 5 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

College has become convincing dumb rich kids they are smart while convincing smart poor kids they are dumb.

I know there are good professors, good people who work at universities, that isn't who I want to criticise, just to be clear. But once accounting for that, the rest is just a fucked to death flaming pile of shit

[–] TempermentalAnomaly@lemmy.world 5 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

Alright... Found the original post. I think this is satire and he got all his friends to say it's brilliant.

Edit: looks like he stole it from someone. I think this is copypasta. Brilliant
