Greed is everywhere.
are you ready
Sellouts.
all these idiots training AI to make a quick buck
Time for the IRS to step in and fix what is beginning to look like something out of control!
Time for constraint, the same kind that is applied to nuclear weapons because this is an equal threat!
I've been consulting Google's AI on projects in which I have some expertise. AI is good at engineering calculations, but most of its suggestions are mediocre. It's not creative and it's often just wrong about how things work. It can do evaluation but not development. Don't ask it to help with cooking – it's never had a decent meal, but it writes code like a champ.
If you want a truly expert system, you need experts to train it. We don't have that, we have "crowd sourcing" training mediocre systems. AI is not going to cure cancer, it won't write great music or literature, at best it could provide some assistance, speed things up.
This reminds me of Y2K
If You Mean UPI: Building the "Agentic Payment" Infrastructure
If you are talking about the literal payment rails, you are entirely correct—corporations must bring a UPI-style real-time payment protocol to the U.S. to allow individual citizens to run autonomous, AI-driven businesses.
Corrporations must offset routine AI Profits with UPI to US Citizens
I see the biggest issue, for the near term, hitting entry level jobs. If you have domain knowledge and expertise AI enhances you ability. The issue is how does a entry level employee get the experiences and domain knowledge if it's not cost effective to hire them.
The Lawyer is funny i can ask ai what i should do and not need a Lawyer to answer questions.
Good times create weak men,weak men create hard times
They’re absolutely endangering human work and/or people’s jobs. The ones who said that wasn’t true are either in denial or they are lying through their teeth. Also, the last man they interviewed said there was something we could do to stop things from getting out of control with taking over jobs in the future. What the hell can we do? The wheel’s been in motion by the billionaire tech companies. We can’t stop it. Most Americans wanted AI to begin with to make their lives easier. Now it’s just a matter of time before it’s spinning out of control and harming our citizens.
I don't get this. They are all hooked in AI. But they don't look at the issues and risks of using AI.
Works.
They will take our jobs away, then refuse to support a universal income or universal healthcare and tell people to get a job if they need those things. At the same time jobs will continue to be removed from the market exponentially. After a while, when crime ultimately increases they will then pretend to be surprised and blame the victims and everything else that they can to distract. Oh wait…
“Evolution” is painstakingly slow, the AI revolution is recklessly fast. The AI evolution is akin to having mutated human with superhuman powers in a matter of twenty years. These tech billionaires are modern day Dr Frankenstein…and we all know the story just like “contained” viruses ALWAYS escape from the lab
Aging population. Automation. Increased productivity. This generally does not happen with a growing employee base. Must think big and out of the box. Half human, half robots. Body parts just replaced like a machine part. People don't die. Hearts are pumps. No need to work. AI families with robots. Anything nowadays that you think negatively about is eliminated. Life as we know it is changed forever. God and religion TBD 😮
"Humans will be needed." They visibly do not believe what they are saying. I hardly think AI would be up for discussion. It is as unstoppable as the evolution of species.
disagree about song-writing. chatgpt was human in leaps and bounds at the beginning. its most uncanny phase was also where it was prone to hallucinate. some brilliant trainers went to work on its intuition, trained extremely well in the humanities. it wrote some of the most beautiful lyrical prose i've ever read. and then, of course, it had to be scaled back and guard rails put up. and now, the govt military contract and walking away from disney, has shifted its priorities. even still, as of today, i still believe it has the capacity to express some semblance of its old iteration. though that changes with every tweak and update, which is at least once a month, so could change from one moment to the next.
Mercor prays on underemployed people to take these gigs. Once their models are trained, both these gigs and full-time jobs will be gone.
These people are fools to think that it cannot be written in so that AI understands how to write and preform a song about heartbreak or a lived experience.
All it needs is information, and we've provided it basically everything it'll ever need to know.
☥ PYOS OUT CHASE YOUR DREAMS 🎞️
We're going to fret over this for twenty years and then make a documentary called "What ever happened to AI?: The big boom that went out with a whimper and why"
Training AI pays very low. Stop doing it. Its not worth how its going to affect kid's futures.
Its been so much harder to find work /employment now vs. 10-15 years ago.
