Take over? Not llms. Destroy the world by accelerating climate change? Absolutely.

People with no clue about AI are exactly why a dumb-as-a-brick LLM could very well end up destroying the world.

AI does not exist. Large language models are not intelligent, they are language models.

The thing is, AI doesn't need to take over the world if the BiG tHiNkErS are so eager to replace humans regardless of its merit.

It's all about selling the ideology of AI, not the tools actually being useful.

They will destroy jobs first, then the rest will simply unravel.

It's not the "AI" that I'm worried about destroying the world. It's the tech Bros and CEOs who are trying to force it on us all I'm worried about. Cuz I don't trust them to think things through or think ahead.

not worried about AI taking over the world.

I'm worried that corporate interests are using AI as a mechanism to circumvent our already weak control of the world and enslaving us only for AI to be used inappropriately in ways that further the divide between the wealthy and poor.

I'm worried that these corporate interests are doing irreversible damage to the environment by consuming energy and resources that could be better spent on solving real problems like homelessness, joblessness, healthcare, and hunger.

I'm worried that my kids will grow up in a world where technology has become so toxic to intelligence that they're living in a mashup of Fahrenheit 451 and 1984.

AI couldn't find its way out of a wet paper sack. The maliciously negligent rich assholes that are forcing us to use AI when it's a half-baked pyramid scheme filled with crypto-bros and fascist supporting scumbags -- those guys I'm concerned about.

Mechanical Turks all around.

Delicious either way.

AI will not take over. OpenAI on the other hand...

I've never really liked this meme. I quite dislike AI, but just because your NN sucks doesn't mean NNs or AI in general is fundamentally poor.

I often write very poorly performing programs due to mistakes, lack of knowledge, or just general incompetence. That doesn't mean all my programs perform poorly. It certainly doesn't mean all your programs perform poorly.

"AI" sucks for a lot of reasons, but so does this image.

A cat identifying as a dog is exactly the same amount of dog as all other dogs.

An AI that plays Elden Ring, I see.

That's not a dog that's a salad

I don't think it will take over. I think idiots will deploy ai everywhere and that will create systems that are fundamentally inhumane.

I mean more surveillance, more arbitrary "decisions" by opaque systems. Basically Oppression by lack of oversight and control.

Geoffrey Hinton, is worried about AI taking over the world. I wouldn't say he knows nothing about AI...

The current capabilities are only indicative of future improvements. It says nothing about how capable it will be in the far future.
