Haven't heard much about it in a while. My boss at work keeps telling us to use AI to do things AI isn't capable of doing without so many errors it takes more time to review the AI output than to just do it myself.
I noticed a lot of AI datacenters that were talked about mostly all stalled.
What's the current situation on AI?
It's still happening, just quietly behind the scenes.
Lmao, I was interested in how it all works so recently went down the rabbit hole. About using comfyui to run some local models like wan2.2. God damn i wish the video card I had from 3 years ago wasnt kneecapped with 12gbs of vram, its super annoying. Nvidia has been doing this stuff for years. The 5000 series have "slightly" more ram than the 2000 series despite everything needing it.
Im sure it was because nvidia wants people to do the "iphone" model, buy a new video card every year. Then the AI boom just took off.
Its inevitable, its not going away. its funny so many of the peeps here are like 100% valve brand so when gabe says, use ai youd be dumb if you dont, they fucking praise him for it. Todd says, everyones using ai why the fuck would we label it, hes just a dumb cock sucker, its hilarious.
Learning how it actually works demystifys it but does not change my mind. We are just mathmatical expressions ourselves. And while yes math is just a "approximation" of real life, its still the best way to model what happens in real life.
The weights and inputs that make up the formulas that build these cognitive networks allow for that expression. We are playing with fire. Life is meant to have a half life, the idea of creating something that doesnt die just seems like a bad idea doubly so when its being used as a weapon against the people.
And thats exactly what the elite want to use it for.
And the brain works mostly the same way, if you could figure a way to scan every connection perfectly, you could likely recreate someones core personality digitally, thats the premise of that anime pantheon, except in that show, scanning the brain destroys it. They have one scene where they show it being done to a employee against his will, it really disturbed the crap out of me for some reason....
:Shrugs:
Only time will tell I guess.
Between nuclear weapons, the elite/rich, the authoritarian bullshit, ai, gene drives, and I was recently reading about mirror life, juts feels like a ticking timer on the human race, but maybe thats the end of the interglacial looming, i dont know.
