Every modern convenience will be replaced with this slop, to save just that little bit extra, and that means Pandora's box will have been fully opened.
You think it's bad now, wait until the only interactions anywhere you can trust are face to face.
I kind of already adhere to the latter principle, for the most partβ¦
Certainly when it comes to shit like dating and friendships, I try to keep that as majority face-to-face as possible (and indeed, when dealing with bureaucracy, I prefer to do that face to face instead of online or over the phone, where possible, too)β¦

A man should not be able to go from general to spy chief to silicon valley director in one life time. Make me wonder about conservatives blind faith that the US military would "never attack Americans."
That requires the enlisted to do so. The generals aren't the ones who pull the triggers. And it's not that the military wouldn't turn it's sights on the populace, it is that the enlisted ranks are (or were) overwhelmingly full of the exact kind of people that distrust the government and would rebel in that circumstance. So the military would fracture and portions of it would turn rebel instantly.
We have families who's tradition of military service goes back centuries telling their kids not to enlist, a concerted DEI effort in recruiting, and a push to enlist "newcomers." I don't think it would take much to indoctrinate the enlisted ranks into a new ethic. I'm not a veteran, but I've got the impression from some of the guys around here that are that this sort of ideology pushing has become common in the armed services. It starts with the gay shit and moves on to calling the political views of a certain type of American as "dangerous." At the end of the day most people will point a rifle at someone else if they believe that they are doing so for the right reasons. An army unit shooting at Americans will believe they are protecting the country from terrorists or rebels.
Recruitment is in the dumpster, and for combat arms roles especially. Being turned against your own countrymem is not something the average infantryman will go along with. You'll have outright defection en masse and constant sabotage.
They have started pushing "training" that is sitting in a room and getting lectured on how troons are people too, but everyone walks out making fun of it for the next week.
All the enlisted hate that shit. Only non combat jobs, whose opinions are largely irrelevant, have observably left leaning people in any number. Usually the females.
Yep. ClosedAI was such a wonderful company before, just honest hard-working people like Dr. Sam Altman who as a child always wanted to use machine learning to help humanity. Partnering with an esteemed corporate citizen like Microsoft was only the tip of the amazing work they were about to accomplish. Sadly it has JUST NOW become a tool of the deep state. Yeah...
There's no way the deep state would NOT slip their tentacles into this technology. Use it to help you get some code down or whatever but don't trust it with anything damaging obviously
This technology isn't entirely some organic development - they have pumped trillions of dark money into the tech sector for decades. OpenAI is just this latest development probably born out of technology developed to sort through all the masses of data they are collecting every day. In the 90's it was Microsoft - now an operating system they control dominates desktop PC's. They did the same with Apple and Google in the late 00's to make sure they controlled all the smartphones. Now they are doing the same with these AI tools they want to sell everyone and get them dependent on.
I have the paid version; you'd be surprised at just how much better at coding GPT-4o is than the free version, and what it can do. It's entirely possible to put a 10k line source file in, say "write me a function that does X, Y, and Z, using only subroutines, data types, and object classes in the above source file", and get the right answer on the first try. It can also reliably port code from one language to another, or clean up code by moving repeated actions into their own macros or functions, or (probably most helpful) make unit test suites for a codebase. I use it very frequently for all of the above.
What it can't do - yet - is creativity. When I go in knowing exactly what functions I want it to write, I can get it to do all the 'boilerplate' stuff and get much more code written per day than I could otherwise. But if I were to try e.g. a Project Euler problem that I don't know how to solve, and just say "write a script that solves this problem", it'll come up with the obvious brute-force solution (that will take a hundred years to run and requires an exabyte of RAM), but not come up with any of the clever optimizations and shortcuts and mathematical equivalencies needed to actually solve the problem.
If you don't know what good code looks like and you can't stay strict in telling it your requirements, it'll give you dangerously misleading almost-correct code that's worse than not having anything at all. You shouldn't use it for anything where you can't easily check if it's right.
But if you do know what good code looks like and what you want, it's a genuine gamechanger, and for the projects I use it on, I'm at least twice as productive as I am on the projects I don't use it for.
Obviously, I assume that everything written in there is stored forever, and I don't use it for anything private. But if I'm writing code for open-source projects, it's going to scrape that code sooner or later anyway, so there's not much difference.
I love how many times people keep saying the company is the top of the charts. It's not, and never was, but the billions invested in it had nothing to do with it's status.
You're a fucking idiot with zero imagination. Go watch an episode of the Presidential Zomboys and tell me that voice generation won't be used to great effect by propagandists.

Hey BB. You seem like a total QT. uwu
One of those moments in history where you just know that OpenAI and ChatGPT are going to be rotten and evil to the core.
This will be the lamest, gayest, brown dystopian cyberpunk timeline.
Almost makes you wish for a nuclear winter

Will be?

I figured that when I looked at their CEO's nose. (((Altman)))
Now Elon needs to sue them all over again.

That's good news in the last paragraph, but only if the NCOs are laughing too.

You let one spook into your company, you let them all in. RIP OpenAI. You are now a tool of the oligarch deep state.
Expect them to start buying up other AI competitors and make a new Google/MS level beast.
Now?

I didn't know full history. I had a good opinion of them from Dota 2. Thanks for info.
Now? They were founded by a bunch tech weirdos, half of whom jews, with Microsoft money lol.
If youβre surprised by this occurrenceβ¦
I have a bridge to sell you. A very nice, shiny, modern one, too! With all the very-latest tech!
An AI Powered Bridge.
Was it designed by an all queer disabled wammanz of color team?

It's pretty shit at coding from all accounts I've heard and from all the code I've had to correct that came from it.

Ah but itβs βFormerβ
OpenAI needs to be shut down with their source code and training data published.
There's that self-importance running rampant again.
You are willfully retarded if you think AI won't be weaponized.
You're a fucking idiot with zero imagination. Go watch an episode of the Presidential Zomboys and tell me that voice generation won't be used to great effect by propagandists.
Go on, I'll wait.
Wow, you are in fact retarded. Dunning Kruger in action right here.
I used to hate how some people referred to the Singularity in Science Fiction as 'Rapture of the Nerds'.
...after seeing how some people reacted to ChatGPT, though. I get it, now.
I would still punch Charlie Stross in the throat, though. In minecraft.
