AI sucks balls

[High Test With da Best]

Did they purposely make this thing move like a geriatric so i'd feel sympathy for it and not make it do anything?

Yeah see my post above!

It sounds impressive from the small amount I've heard about it, this is the one made by Tesla I'm assuming?

Nope, i believe thats neo, and from what i can tell, it’s a con job. Most of the operations are remotely controlled as it is learning, it cant do much on it’s own.

Never heard of him.

For real though haven't heard of that company 1X, but I don't actively keep up with this stuff. By the time these are "perfected" the world may just be running out of the materials to keep building them IMO

 

[italiamusica]

Yup, because it seems like it's real purpose was to replace musicians, artists, creative people, so that the owners of the companies can literally pocket all the money and use a free AI to do everything for them. There's an AI "artist" that's making it big in music because humanity is fucked and no one cares.

Tesla optimus is likely going to be the best one, and the race is on, however it’sa really hard thing to do, not only do you have to be a really good manufacturer to build robots, but you also need the very best in software development to make it work well. IMO, only Tesla, Apple, Google or one of those Chinese companies can do this, it’s beyond what a small company can do imo.

Honda still doing the Asimo? Seems like forever ago they put out those early vids of it helping around their factories but I don't think it was ever a consumer product for the home IIRC

*edit*
And yes I agree. No angel investor in the world has the requisit funds to dump into a smaller/newer company with confidence that it won't all disappear in 4-5 years

Stupid people will use it in stupid ways and call it stupid

I used it this last week to diagnose a fault on the boat with the generator. Without having any mechanic knowledge.

It saved €2000 which would have been the cost of getting a man from the generators nearest agency to come and do the diagnosis. We were in basically rural Africa.

Grok provided detailed problem analysis of a niche problem and we were able to get the sheared shaft fabricated and fitted for €100.

So no, AI is currently incredibly powerful and my experience is that it can reduce internet research time of potentially days to minutes. I think it's down to the user.

You have to have enough knowledge to determine hallucinations, and you still have to engineer prompts, although that skill is diminishing in usefulness as the AIs are trained more.

 

[Municipal Waste]

I used it for work and personal projects. It cuts down my work time by a lot and optimizes my workflows. Honestly, it always depends on what you use an instrument for. Generally any instrument will only be as useful as the person using it.

 

[SalvadorAllende]

It depends on your expectations

IA free tools are pretty cool for some tasks... but some people were expecting them to become uber smart in like 1 year and replace all human work. Not going to happen that way.

 

[jeff7b9]

So the promise that AI will cure diseases and shit I think are completely false.

If AI starts curing diseases they will either unplug it or rework the code.

Big Pharma ain't gonna tolerate AI fucking with their margins.

The best is when people use AI to train AI. The trash it churns out do to model collapse is hallucinogenic glory

I mean, I've done this same thing with YouTube and Google before.

You also have to know that not every one is mechanically inclined and has to tools to do what you did. 70 year old Daisy can diagnose the issue with her Lexus all day long with an AI tool.. but at the end of the day she's still taking it to the dealer to have them fix it.

So have I, this was 100x easier, quicker and involved problem solving. Also the fix involved no special tools which obviously helped. It was one step away from augmented reality showing what had to be done in how detailed it was.

There was no YouTube on how to fix this problem as the issue was too niche, there's only double digits of the boat made.

I could have probably come to the same conclusion in a couple of days of trial and error, looking at 70 odd pages of forums, but this did it all in minutes with bells on, absolutely took away the need for any expertise. I wouldn't have been confident enough to diagnose on my own, pipe work etc gets pretty complicated on expensive boats.

Two more experienced guys tried to figure it out before I leveraged Grok on it and like I said, €2000 saved. The power of it is in my experience undeniable.

as an aside - the term "hallucinations" is a clever techno marketing term to anthropomorphize errors.

sometimes I am making different ai argue and do rap dangal it is entertain me bigly

once for instance chatgpt destroy deepseek calling it weakseek and am never forget this yaar

After using it for a while now, I think I can confidently say that it sucks. And I'm not sure it will ever live up to the hype for these reasons:

1. There's an old addage that goes something like, "Humans are smart but slow. Computers are dumb but fast." And that's been true forever. And it seems like AI hasn't changed that at all.

AI can make you a PowerPoint presentation, or write an essay, or generate some code, but all of it still needs to be reviewed and corrected by a human. So at best, AI is giving you a 1st draft that's usually pretty low quality. It's doing the "dumb but fast" work. Which isn't that different from what computers have always done.

2. When you ask it questions, it's basically just pulling information from the Internet and compiling it into an answer for you. But compiling and summarizing info is something computers could already do without AI. So it really doesn't feel like there's any "intelligence" there.

3. I'm not sure that AI will get much better. Humans are the flaw in the system. Because AI is trained to give humans what they want/need, but humans can't agree on shit. So we want AI to give us accurate answers but some humans will say the earth is flat, and will tell the AI that any answer to the contrary is incorrect, so the AI will struggle to provide facts because nobody can agree on the basic facts of anything anymore.

So the promise that AI will cure diseases and shit I think are completely false. I don't see any of those positive contributions that we're expecting. But we still get all the downsides, like students cheating, jobs being eliminated, fake videos and other AI slop flooding the market. Etc.

It seems like we're going to get all the downsides and very few, if any, upside.

I've never been a Luddite and I have always loved cool new tech, but AI sucks and I think it's likely that it always will.

It’s trash. It’s making people more stupid and low IQ.

Yes, it’s causing layoffs to low iq people. DEI and affirmative action are being replaced with competency. Others are unfortunately laid off due to unfortunate circumstances with record profits in business and outsourcing to h1b.

It’s actually scary. The dot com bubble was terrible as was the house market crash in 08. The AI crash is going to be a blood bath since it’s not isolated to anything. It’s being tied to everything.

Despite the billions of dollars thrown at AI, profits are nonexistent.

 

[Jack Reacheround]

I think it can be useful in some instances. But now with all the deep fakes they’re creating, to cast SNAP recipients as nothing more than black welfare queens taking advantage of the system, and all the dumbass boomers who believe that shit, I don’t even want to think about what’s coming in a few years.

They need to apply defamation and libel laws to that stuff. I don’t think it should be legal to pass off a video you created of Stephen Miller sucking Trump’s dick as genuine. The law should require a watermark if it is indeed computer generated.

Thank God this thread is about Artificial Intelligence and now my all time favoritye player
Allen Iverson.

We would have had problem if it was the case.

I sacked him thrice when he was the qb for Bethel high school.
