"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.

It's not an ad, read what they have done showing the risk of AI. They have placed several different AIs alone in a virtual environment mimicking the detailed real world, with the result that they developed criminal and violent behaviour. Although I have put a summary in the comment describing it, you have to know how to read so as not to confuse the post with an ad.
I can't possibly see how this is not an ad.
As said, read the article if you can, you'll see that they disqualify themselves with this test, showing the real risk of AI.
Part of the hype that’s being used to inflate valuations, is convincing people that these chatbots are actually thinking, and that’s what makes them dangerous. When in reality, they just spit out plausible bullshit, and their ~~bodegas ~~ biggest dangers are misinformation, climate impacts, and the way they help scammers translate and fake an identity.
Not that they are thinking, but it's about acting and consequences. For the AI is the same acting in reallity or in a simulation of reallity, they would do the exactly same, without control.

Someday all these Smart People™ need to learn just the fundamentals of marketing and advertising.
"The real risk of AI" which they will save us from with their "verified, governed AI agents that plan, reason, and act". This is the foundational lie upon which they are building their business. "When AIs are unchecked they become lawless, but we have the solution!"
And the "real risk of AI" isn't even in their toy simulated society. The real risk of LLMbeciles happened long before the first "agentic AI" system was dropped: the dilution and denial of physical reality; the downgrading of human beings' abilities to think and reason; the devaluation of human creativity.
This ad you shared is a straight flim-flam job. "Watch my left hand closely; pay no attention to the right."
