Is "AI and robots taking over" an actual possible outcome of the current race to produce "smart" LLMs ?
(lemmy.dbzer0.com)
I can't see it happening tbh, but like the USA government discussed putting restriction on AI development, I think OpenAI or some other companies asked them to do so!? And there were short/reels of high profile developers hyping out the fact that "we don't know what we're doing", and one of them quit his job. So why is all that hype? Is the "Matrix" route actually a possible future ?
One thing that bothers me about high level devs just leaving because they realized what they created. Is that them leaving means one more possible road block is just gone. They will just be replaced with people that are more fresh faced and on the hype train of going harder and harder. Lots of folks I know that are finishing college are just leaning more and more into just using all of these AI to solve problems instead of learning to code (or just write things) themselves. Some are still trying and I support them in my little ways, but I can see how much like a drug things start small and can turn into just using it all the time. Comp Sci majors were already getting worse in their actual understanding of how things work before LLMs (just look at all the things that will never be optimized and just rely on higher spec PCs).
