it's so transparently fake the whole AI ponzi going on these days, makes me sad when i see otherwise reasonable people thinking there's something earth-shakingly revolutionary going on

spoiler alert: there is nothing groundbreakking about GPT and stable diffusion et al... they are just a form of lossy compression that can be reconstituted with a random value that makes it seem like it did something intelligent... the text follows grammar, the image has mostly accurate structure that resembles a real image or real, human expression

but they are not going to change the world or replace anyone except the pompous asshats in government departments with their little czar role and their arrogation of authority to dictate whot people's lives consist of

before 2 years is out AI is not going to even be the word for this tech anymore

we may actually see a semantic web tho, that's something that would be quite significant, but it's not what they are selling it as - literally replacing humans - because they are eugenicist, elitist psychopathic megalomaniacs and that's what they dream of, a world where everyone gargles their balls

and the majority of people are tired of gargling their balls, and it's getting more intense the more they try to squeeze
