Fuck AI

"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.

SciShow Is Lying to You about AI. Here are the receipts. (www.youtube.com)

In this video, I debunk the recent SciShow episode hosted by Hank Green regarding Artificial Intelligence. I break down why the comparison between AI development and the Manhattan Project (Atomic Power) is factually incorrect. We also investigate the sponsor, Control AI, and expose how industry propaganda is shifting focus toward hypothetical extinction risks to distract from real-world issues like disinformation and regulatory accountability, and fact-check OpenAI's claims about the International Math Olympiad and Anthropic's AI Alignment bioweapon tests.

We do know how a single "neuron" relates to other neurons, it's in the model. But what gets complicated is the vast amount of them, of course.

So yes, we don't intrinsically get to understand it all, but I think we can understand what it does, a bit like windows ๐Ÿ˜/j.

Fascinating subject, and we're just scratching the beginning IMO.
