It's needed to difference between AI, which exist since the first chess computer, specific AI used in science, medicine and industry since many years and biased ChatBots (Mecha Hitler) and LLM by big corps. They are not the same, less if the last ones are used without criteria and knowledge by lazy users.
Except “heuristics” reveals that it’s a fuzzy, inaccurate shortcut machine and liable to significant problems if you treat its output as undisputed fact. And that means less profits for the boardroom stockholders :(((
Lol this applies to neurons like too well.
It’s also a psychology term to refer to how we make fast and inaccurate assumptions to more quickly process the world around us, so yes v much so lol
In 10 years the new AI will come out and current AI will be just LLM. People will scoff at the idea that you'd refer to LLM as AI.
NGL, that day scares TF outta me. You know the new AI is gonna be under the control of someone who really shouldn't have it.
I’ve been seeing this go on since the 80s…. Algorithms, Heuristics, Machine Learning… the number of times I see it in games too for CPU characters.
That’s because AI is a moving target. It’s kind of the boundary between ”tasks which can be automated by computers” and ”tasks which humans are still only able to do”
This reminds me about the super-advanced fish AI from Call of Duty.
It's kinda crazy how far we've come and how normal it seems to everyone. I remember in like 2016 playing around with neural nets as like a fun coding project. If you asked anyone then most thought even our current level of AI capability wouldn't be until like the later half of this century at best. If you just picked up a random open source model now and transported it then most people would think it was legit just a person on the other side texting you back, either that or they would have their absolute socks blown off in amazement.
wouldn't be until like the later half of this century at best.
I wonder if it would have accelerated so fast of it wasn't so applicable to the intelligence services in mass surveillance and target acquisition
That's all new. The moment I knew we were all fucked was when I first played with chatGPT 3 near the end of 2020. I was trying to tell people then. Shit, even now but the vast majority just see AI as a stupid useless toy poisoning their FYP with junk content. The vast majority of people still seem totally unaware of what's going on.
"Biasing" doesn't sell shares like "machine learning" does.
"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"
A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.
AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.
