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.

So general understanding seems to be that LLMs which are almost comprehensively understood is not the same as artificial intelligence which is really only conceptually understood for the most part. Still too new and not fully tested, like chemistry when it was still really being worked out. We know definitely some of how it might work but MOST of it will be being developed and debated over a long period of time still to come. So its extremely fair to say we do not know how long that will take and how fast it will develop because we don't have enough information to establish that yet. Including not having the minutia of how the DEVELOPED systems truly operate which is what most people are taught about these days and (I think) they were pointing out.
So on that note it seems worth bringing up what the bigger problem here that pissing people off so much, the TERMs used to describe the issue and lack of concrete and agreed upon understanding that MOST people share about the subject that were even discussing makes this tough to get through without everybody being wrong in some capacity or another.
So you are def kinda wrong, they might be but I dont think that they are really. And to some degree people in the damn field of AI right fucking now will be wrong too
So, grace brother, remember the learning process and if your goal is to educate, there are more effective ways then that. But also please keep participating, remembering that most people here are simply trying to add their relevant experience and should be treated as such.
Edit: Yall are... AGI doesn't exist and we don't know how to make it and we don't know how fast ANI is going to develop even slightly. Then there's how machine-learning so-called AI is NOT generally considered AI by the actual developed standards in the field of AI, and just because they UNDERSTAND how machine learning works really well and have some blueprints for what he calls "advanced AI systems" which are still just machine learning systems doesn't suddenly change any of this.
We don't know how intelligence works. We can't know how AI works yet. We know system does this if we do that. Reminding of early chemistry fields.
So the problem HERE becomes that AI, AI and AI all mean different things to different people even in the field of AI which also means something special and to quote OP here "Im so fucking sick of seeing that bullshit" ๐
Stop bullshitting you know what people are talking about in a field as brand spanking new (read: underdeveloped) as this. But people get your frustration with this one thing even if they are totally wrong about it.
