"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.

I feel like that largely ignores the idea of what an actual safety critical system is. It doesn't cover malicious usage in the browser case. Idk if I would put the amplifying effect it has on the mentally ill in that category either. It's just a wide net to be casting.
You would have to include stuff like social media, or just simply having conversations with people. Discord would fit in just as much as AI. Most of the internet would tbh.
It should probably be kept away from the mentally ill and children to an extent, but since it's completely virtual and available on the net, that would mean some intense regulation. No thanks, not interested in the internet being treated as a dangerous chemical. Regulations would help openai a lot more than regular folks in any case.
