Oh no, I mean could you explain the joke? I believe I get the joke (shitty AI will replace experts). I was just leaving a comment about how systems that use LLMs to check the work of other LLMs do better than if they don't. And that when I've introduced AI systems to stakeholders with consequential decision making, they tend to want a human in the loop. While also saying that this will probably change over time as AI systems get better and we get more used to using them. Is that a good thing? It will have to be on a case by case basis.

Could you explain?

That's why too high a level of accuracy in ML is always something that makes me squint... I don't trust it, as an AI researcher and engineer, you have to do the due diligence in understanding your data well before you start training.

True! I'm an AI researcher and using an AI agent to check the work of another agent does improve accuracy! I could see things becoming more and more like this, with teams of agents creating, reviewing, and approving. If you use GitHub copilot agent mode though, it involves constant user interaction before anything is actually run. And I imagine (and can testify as someone that has installed different ML algorithms/tools on government hardware) that the operators/decision makers want to check the work, or understand the "thought process" before committing to an action.

Will this be true forever as people become more used to AI as a tool? Probably not.

Over 80,000 is what the organizers said at the protest.

This works for any task or sport too I feel like. Once you're like "okay, watch this", you're screwed

I have a direct example of this:

I was at the UFO museum in Roswell, NM and the guy that was giving a talk was a self-described Ufologist and this was after the government released the UFO footage. He talked the whole time about government coverup of past UFO crashes, etc.

In the Q&A, someone asked if the recent footage gave him hope that we'll begin to learn more about UFOs now that the government seems more forthright with the information... And he got pissed at them for even asking. It was as if his whole retirement activity of uncovering conspiracies was challenged and his brain couldn't handle it except by getting angry at an honest question.

His conspiracy seemed to be more boring than he thought (and spent decades "researching") so he wouldn't allow the truth to shatter it. It was fascinating to see in real-time.

Long, boring, hard to pay attention to. I read philosophy and theory sometimes but it's few and far between for those reasons. I really have to be in a special mood to sit down and read something that dense.

Edit: I'm not the original commenter

Depression for me.

No. I wish I could stay awake forever sometimes.

Lol you don't get to be rude if you apologize first.

That we're able to dodge the incoming wave of fascism and peacefully skim board into progressive politics.
