By feeding people's collective cynicism, lack of social skills, general paranoia, lack of trust in each other, waning hope for the future, etc.

Do have a humanities background? All tech people should have one.

    Explain how an AI calculating protein foldings feeds people’s collective cynicism, lack of social skills, general paranoia, lack of trust in each other, waning hope for the future, and whatnot.

    It's not. Trap circumvented. Do you have another question?

    Oh, so your approach to arguments is just to deny that you said what you said? Amazing skills there. You replied to a thread claiming that “All AI is humanity-ending garbage” claiming it does that “by feeding people's collective cynicism, lack of social skills, general paranoia, lack of trust in each other, waning hope for the future, etc.”, and then you say you didn't say that. So you just lie, and that's your entire argument? Maybe learn to follow the most basic of argumentation logic.

  • You don't even know why I said that. Why do I have to suffer people who are incapable of reconstructing someone else's argument?

    The ML approach to protein folding is a different system, used in different ways, by different people. Your insistance on conflating a data analysis technique with a robot that will pretend to be your girlfriend is utterly bizarre. It's so oblivious and unaware, I don't even know what to do with it. It's like you want people to dislike protein folding. I don't understand why your camp insists on treating these like they're the same thing.

    Except I do, actually: it's the card says moops. A very Republican tactic, if I'm being honest.

    I have both actually. There are many, many use cases for AI and again, they were used before people like you even knew it was a concept.

    Well, you're not putting it to very good use.

    I use machine learning all the time for stats what do you mean 😭

    Stats.

    Does anyone else think that the old refrain of letting nerds run the world was actually incredibly misguided because nearly all of them lack the social skills necessary to not be sociopaths?

    Nerds? You mean a select few oligarchs? Nothing wrong with learning and technology. I know over half of Americans read at a middle school level and think they’re all geniuses from social media and memes. However, some of us do enjoy intellectual pursuits and technology for good use. This shit hole country decided to vote for this administration that is hostile towards everyday people and doesn’t believe in regulating a bunch of malicious billionaires.
