You know what? Fuck it. Just let any program run in the browser, but only if it could rune natively too. The new type of hardware acceleration. Play league of legends in a chrome tab. Just ship it.

What needs redistribution incentive is assets not income. Anyone can get income, even disability is income. However assets are increasingly out of reach.

Related to this is the idea of the tragedy of the commons, which if you consider the utilization of human and natural/capital resources, It almost seems like we are approaching the point at which everything needed for society, basic needs, and health is becoming over-utilized and under-optimized.

In all except rural Europe which will likely hurt tremendously because of this, most people likely will not care too much. Unlike America a car is not a requirement in most of Europe due to public transportation being allowed to develop instead of it being neutered and made just good enough to exist.

I’m in the public and I used it and it was pretty shocking how quickly and confidently it asserted a false and damaging fact about a non-public figure.

How would you feel about BingChat being convinced that “LinkLink’s real name” has been fired from multiple jobs for fraud and it kept repeating it until pressed? That’s basically what it did in the convo I had

Sure man it can say what it wants its just BingChat, anyone who's opinion I actually respect can't have their worldview altered by a collection of tensor GPU's.

increasingly as influence and MKultra esque government and social media programs continue to rollout, it is becoming blatantly obvious who is easily influenced and who is not. Which is exhausting, it shows just how few people really have any autonomy at all.

Anti-AI seems poised to be the anti-vax of the next few years, where laymen pick up lines like "we have no idea how AI does the stuff it does" and take that wholly out of context. As a society, we have to decide how we feel about AI in legal and cultural contexts as we expand our capabilities, but there's time to do that. Github Copilot will not end up launching nuclear missiles in the meantime. Stuff like this just creates FUD.

I don't know what to make of this, though. This author, after some googling, seems to know a thing or two, but without any background on him while reading some of this he came off to me as a crackpot. I really hope AI doesn't have its Robert Malone.

I'm curious, what lead you to write such a thought and post it? In all genuine honesty I want to understand what you thought calling people worried about AI anti vaxxers and implying that because it will not cause nuclear holocaust, it must be safe would contribute to this discussion?

dead serious btw

This is just screaming into the void, but I have an ego so I must.

If you believe AI will bring innovation, you believe in it's capability.

If you believe in its capability, you must also understand it is capable of wrongdoing as well as good deeds.

Most of the comments here are just arguing about this basic stream of logic bringing in things like "PHD" "Fallacies" or "Blind faith"

If you feel the need to argue, know that there exist people who would walk toward the sun until it burned them, and there exist people who will shut themselves indoors the day somebody explains light to them.

Both of them are extremely outspoken about their views.

The end of capitalism and the beginning of fascism is when an invention hasn't even been released to the public yet and people are asking "What if somebody doesn't like it?"

Fuck AI though ask an amish farmer how to update your antiquated jquery to angular and just realize how much happier than you he is.
