"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.
'Experts' have been saying this shit for years. Literally at least two decades.
Meanwhile, how many companies have had to backpedal (even recently) because they went too far with their dependency on AI, and everything went to shit and they had to rehire a bunch of humans?
So we can set on this as the AI equivalent of "cold fusion in 50 years" phisics constant?
He will be replaced in 18 months, that much I can believe.
He's an executive. They never fail- only transferred with a promotion.
I give it 18 months for the AI bubble to crash, and that's being generous.
Nobody wants this shit, let alone enough to pay for it. The novelty has worn off for anyone with half a brain. People can't even afford modern hardware. And if big tech can't turn theft into a profitable business, then how is this ever going to pan out?
sure jan
Famous words that will be swallowed.
Not feeling very confident, Microslop. The AI dudes usually promise their industry takeovers every six months, not 18.
Based in CEO claims AI should have replaced me 4-5 times over by now. It’s still shitty. I’m still here.
Yeah on the one hand you may still be there but a lot of us are getting fired by our idiotic bosses because they think the AI can replace us
That’s the shitty part. The news always says they have to hire them all back eventually but it’s not guaranteed to be the same group.
For many, AI is just the latest excuse to downsize and juice the quarterly revenue numbers for shareholders.
"…and is the AI superintelligence in the room with us right now?" 😆
If AI could do this then the work would have already been outsourced to cheaper countries.
Just because you spent billions on it doesn't mean its good
Yeah and computers only need 640K.
I've not tried to get an LLM to create a CAD model yet. I'm sure it's possible. I'm also sure whatever it came up with would need me to go over it and fix all the mistakes....
...hey, this must be how coders feel right now.
It is, for sure. It's even worse when you get pull requests from non-coders that think they can just point an LLM at GitHub and say "go fix this bug".
"Maybe if I expose the bug to the bug that created it, they will cancel out"
It seems to be trying to get rid of me already by making it take 5 sign in attempts to join a teams call late
Microsoft, how much do you want to wager my job will be replaced by AI? Just assume I also have billions of other people's money to spend like you do, and give me the sum you bet if this doesn't pan out.
In 18 months, I might be the King of Spain!
Look kids, two things that for sure are not going to be happening!
Once I was the King of Spaiiiin....o/~
Is it uh...still not politically correct to continue this??
Screw it
NOW I EAT HUMBlE PIE!!
Dumbass
The desperation is real.
Right now it can't even read legal papers.
I am so curious about what happens when companies can't buy computers because RAM, Storage, and chip sets are so expensive, and therefore can't continue to buffer this bubble. Your tech is literally starving the people that you need to use it of their ability to do so but cutting off the supply to tech used to access it.
The prices of all computing are rising, wages continue to be stagnant, and every company making hardware is giving all the hardware to AI firms, assuming people will just use what they have. But there's no new supply when what they have becomes obsolete or breaks. This is a shitshow. This is like babies first capitalism for these fools. It's not even remotely sustainable.
And you want to put the people most likely to be forced to use the tech you're schilling to be out of work? Make it make sense.
I am so curious about what happens when companies can’t buy computers because...
Probably why I see this more and more: Windows Cloud PC
There are only so many industries that will be allowed to make use of that. Additionally, that computing power for cloud PC's will also be hit by the shortage of chips.
