Is “goes nuclear” the new “slams”? I hate these clickbait headlines so much it’s unreal
Watch live: steeznson blew up the earth, almost the solar system, against clickbaity headlines
steezson UNMAKES REALITY over hyperbolic headlines!!! (your kids aren’t safe from steezson!)
GTAV actor GOES NUCLEAR and drops a TSAR BOMBA on AI using FACTS and LOGIC
You just literally went nuclear on those headlines.
Sensational language isn’t clickbait. Saying “you won’t believe what happens next!” is clickbait.
Implicitly the title implying “click to see how nuclear he goes”
Yup. Click bait to me means anything a title that over-exaggerates the content of the article to get people to click on it.
That’s exactly what sensational language is… Language meant to excite and entice the reader without respect to the accuracy of what’s being reported. It only became clickbait when we started clicking on things to read them instead of picking up a newspaper.
When you see ai-related stories just remember: we’re currently living through what, in another 10 or 20 years, will be remembered as the takeoff of AI. Wherever it goes, either heavily regulated or widespread, AI is only going to get exponentially better and it won’t just be artists crowing about losing their jobs to it.
More reason to focus on changing to a society that doesn’t work for the sake of working instead of fighting AI.
Except, those are in charge of the AI, just want mass unenployment, to lose our bargaining power, and to work 3 jobs just to eat.
Even the supposed “adapting to AI” for artists is just “buy our stocks and trade them”.
Damn, sounds like instead of bitching about AI we should be chopping some heads.
Yeah just a small bit of killing will do the trick!
The convenient thing about a handful of people controlling all the wealth is it means there are only a handful of people who need to be liberated of their wealth!
Not necessarily. Generative AI hasn’t been advancing as much as people claim, and we are getting into the “diminishing returns” phase of AI advancement. If not, we need to switch gears in our anti-AI activism
Yep. IMO it’ll be kinda like VR. AI will sort of plateau for awhile until they find a new approach and then the hype will kick up again. But the current approach won’t scale into true AI. It’s just fundamentally flawed.
hmm idk… the only real reason vr has playeued so hard is because of the high barrier to entry. the tech is fine, but there’s not that many good games because it’s expensive and not many own it.
I’d argue that ai will continue to see raid growth for a little while. the core technology behind LLMs may be plateauing, but the tech is just now getting out in the world. people will continue to find new and creative ways to extend its usefulness and optimize what it’s currently capable of.
basically, back to the vr example. people are gonna start making “games” for it. did one’s free, and everyone is hungry for it. I’m putting my money on human creativity for now…
This, VR and AI are completely different beasts
I wasn’t claiming the tech was similar. But VR has had several surges in hype over the years. It’ll come to the forefront for awhile, then fade to the background again, until something else happens to bring it back to people’s attention again.
I think AI hype will die down until someone comes up with some new way to hype it, probably through a novel approach that isn’t LLM.
I mean no offense here, but I think your take reflects how few relatively ground-shattering innovations have really happened over the last twenty years or so. I mean truly life-changing. Maybe the internet was last, I’m unsure.
I’m probably too young to have an accurate idea of how often an innovation is supposed to change the world, but it really feels like we’ve become used to seeing new tech that only changes life incrementally at best. How many people, if such an innovation was created, would fail to recognize it or reject it altogether? Entire generations to this day refuse to learn computer literacy, which actively detriments them on a daily or weekly basis.
Won’t update their insurance because they don’t want to use a computer. Don’t know how to reboot a router/modem. Don’t know how to change their password. Congressmen asking if Facebook/TikTok requires Internet access. Some small companies operating exclusively on fax and printed paper, copying said paper, sorting said paper, and then re-faxing it instead of automating or even just using one PC (I worked at a place like this).
It’s all about the models and training, though. People thinking ChatGPT 3.5/4 can write their legal papers get tripped up because it confabulates (‘hallucinates’) when it isn’t thoroughly trained on a subject. If you fed every legal case for the past 150 years into a model, it would be very effective.
We don’t know it would be effective.
It would write legalese well, it would recall important cases too, but we don’t know that more data equates to being good at the task.
As an example ChatGPT 4 can’t alphabetize an arbitrary string of text.
Alphabetize the word antidisestablishmentarianism
The word “antidisestablishmentarianism” alphabetized is: “aaaaabdeehiiilmnnsstt”
It doesn’t understand the task. It mathematically cannot do this task. No amount of training can allow it to perform this task with the current LLM infrastructure.
We can’t assume it has real intelligence, we can’t assume that all tasks can be performed or internally represented, and we can’t assume that more data equals clearly better results.
That’s a matter of working on the prompt interpreter.
For what I was saying, there’s no assumption: models trained on more data and more specific data can definitely do the usual information summary tasks more accurately. This is already being used to create specialized models for legal, programming and accounting.
You’re right about information summary, and the models are getting better at that.
I guess my point is just be careful. We assume a lot about AI’s abilities and it’s objectively very impressive, but some fundamental things will always be hard or impossible for it until we discover new architectures.
I agree that while it’s powerful and the capabilities are novel, it’s more limited than many think. Some people believe current “ai” systems/models can do just anything, like legal briefs or entire working programs in any language.The truth and accuracy flaws necessitate some serious rethinking. There are, like your above example, major flaws when you try to do something like simple arithmetic, since the system is not really thinking about it.
It will start to get wild when it’s attorneys, paralegals, accountants, actuaries, software developers, designers, journalists, engineers, medical technicians… what’s left after that? Physical labor, skilled mechanical labor, politics and religion?
automating politics shouldn’t be that hard. also Religion controlled by ai has huge potential. so physical labor it is for us meatbags
Machine vision and robotics are advancing quickly too.
People would go for it online, but in person, you still need a convincing public speaker. AI could write all their speeches though (and I’m people are on that!)
Like a true Michael
Trevor would just do a terrorism about it
Again, using audio AI to copy a real voice is kinda dumb. Like using image AI to draw real actors, playing characters… instead of just drawing the fucking character.
This tech would let one actor do all the characters. Like how audiobooks work - except you’d get the actor’s performance in the character’s voice. Stephen Fry doing Snape (behave) may sound like Alan Rickman, but only if Alan Rickman is how Snape’s supposed to sound.
The only reason for him to sound exactly like that is if that’s what people already think he sounds like. New characters, or newly-adapted characters, can sound however you want. This technology will let anybody play them.
So hire someone good.
I could really use that for dungeon mastering; NPC voices (esp. accents) are the hardest part for me.
Real-time might be asking a lot.
So I guess, give it a year.
You don’t have to be the world’s most accomplished voice actor with 500 unique voices in your repertoire to be a good DM. Even if you just have a default “NPC” voice that’s different than your DM-ing voice, most players are fine with that. No need to bring in bullshit AI into the game. DnD players got along fine for decades without it.
I’m saying that it would be nice to enhance my voices, not that I need 500 voices to be a good DM, or that we can’t get by without it.
Just because people did fine in the past doesn’t mean we can’t try new things to improve the experience for our players.
But robot no need production insurance or paycheck!
If capital can make art without spending money, so can artists.
So they won’t need capital.

This reminds me I’m kinda surprised EA hasn’t released a Jennifer Hale voicebot by now, marketing it as “your own personal Cmdr Shepard assistant”.
I’m Commander Shepard, and this is my favourite comment on Lemmy

You forget a thousand voice chatbots every day, how about you make sure this is one of them…
Fuck it. AI isn’t going to go away. Companies are going to keep putting these voicebots of famous people out. The only response is to splinter the entertainment industry. Get SAG and the WGA on the horn. They fucked up the negotiations with the MPAA and didn’t outright ban AI. Those unions need a new deal.
Yep, sure, let’s just get WGA, who spent the last year and a half protesting and negotiating contracts, on the horn to do that exact thing over again. I’m sure they’ll get right on that!
sorry, but isnt that the exact reason they exist at all
They exist to get a good deal for their members. Strikes aren’t easy on people or their families.
AI voices sound like shit
Definitely 100% not worried about being replaced 👌👍.

How does that make sense? You’re losing your job… so relax? This is why they have a union.
If they were good at their job, they wouldn’t lose it.
Oh yeah that totally explains why they should relax.
Fuck Hollywood . And the entertainment industry
That doesn’t sound very relaxed.
