“Obviously, the great contradistinction here is Europe, where, you know, it’s like people have given up, and we — I really hope that turns around in Europe,” he added.
Europe is giving up by having ethical, human focused, and probably open source AI/and not firing all their scientists and researchers? Meanwhile the GOP is literally trying to sneak language into a spending bill banning regulation for a decade?
What a pizza shit.
what a fucking moron.
they didn’t give up on it.
they never bought in.
He’s such an awful, ghoulish vampire, him, the oracle guy and the paypal mafia. Why are these people taken more seriously than senile crackheads like they’re USA presidents.
They belong in mental asylums with mouth gags permanently attached to contain their mental poison.
I’m still failing to see enough upsides to AI to justify the mad rush all these greedy arseholes are to get it into everything.
Why does it feel like all the worst people are working together to fuck over the world?
Bc you’re paying attention and not sticking your head in the sand.
It feels like it bc they definitely are. I’m in Louisiana and just woke up to find out news my corrupt Governor is being accused of scheming to install a new senator so that he can then have them resign and take both Senate and governor seats for himself.
One of several examples of how Landry and Trump seem to be scheming together to be as corrupt as possible
Even for Louisiana that’s a whole other level of corruption…not even the first Louisiana governor to do it, but the last one was in the 30s.
The last governor that was this blatant about corruption also had a personal vendetta against my city and tried to take it under siege using the national guard
Guess what else the current governor and his doge inspired task force are scheming
Because we are losing the class war
Bevause we are letting our guard down from psychopaths, seduced by their money and submissive toward them to get some. Reduced to prostitutes on our knees to please them for rewards they convince us to crave while using our pension funds so they can take bet on exploitating us more.
Well because AI has been mostly hype and worthless. It has uses, but not as life changing as promised. And extremely energy intensive.
I think it could be life changing, but true progress will take time, like any tech. There’s a reason most scientists know you can’t just throw money at something and just make it work. That’s why technocracy and the idea of chosen elite is so fucking dumb.
Imagine if in the 80s we had just said ok, Steve Jobs did it. We’re done here. We don’t give any outside voices or ideas in tech a chance unless Jobs gives it the ok first. Imagine how much cool shit we would have missed out on if people hadn’t just said fuck it I don’t need all that money, I’ll just make my own shit and make it work with what I have.
Innovation and progress does not flourish in a neatly controlled box, and most people that don’t just buy other people’s work know that. That’s the real reason people started pushing for DEI. Not just bc it was the “PC” thing to do. It helps bring new perspectives which then leads to new ways of thinking and problem solving.
If you completely isolate AI you may get some cool shit but eventually if you just buy out the entire market to fit your singular vision you get repeating/boring and stale.
I’m pretty sure they think they’re at a point where if they just keep throwing money at it, it will just start getting creative and update itself, but when it’s as unreliable as it is, I don’t see that happening anytime soon
It will hit the average person in ways they cant see, my firm isnt replacing retirements because they can be filled by AI. What was once a vital role has been downgraded to the point where it can be completed by an AI, their manager now handles the back office parts and AI escalationz which given their nature will reduce overtime. In a business unit of ~40 people 7 have retired without issue and there are no plans to replace the rest as they go.
Your customers have noticed the decline in quality, guarantee it.
No, I’d doubt it. Its quite a robust system that has been trialed extensively on a use case by case basis. Its also not directly customer facing.
that’s what makes europe great
This dude is pure evil and anyone who tolerates his presence is a fascist 👍
I mean, every apologist and defender of capitalist apocalyptic hellscapes will have that view, sadly. So long as it makes them an extra buck it’s good for them, consequences to society or environment be damned.
As an European who does advocate and see value in the use of AI, but not at any cost, I’ll take his opinion as a compliment. As they say, “I want AI to do my dishes while I create art, not for me to do the dishes while the AI produces insta-art”.
And eventually if AI gets capitalistically out of hand and leads to many people in service-based economies to poverty and unhappiness we’re sure to see a revolution to restore balance, as many times in history when a few elites made things unbearable for the rest of the population. AI is here to serve humanity, that’s where the value is, not to serve only a select few.
AI is here to serve humanity, that’s where the value is, not to serve only a select few.
Mostly right now it is here to torture humanity with low quality slop. It literally can’t do the things people claim it is capable of doing, no matter for whose benefit. It is just that some people benefit even if the output quality is significantly lower as long as they have enough people convinced that it is a viable replacement.
The AI field is more than just LLM and generative AI. Like models that can detect cancer in scans are not LLMs or generative AI.
Yeah, but Palantir is based on using AI in Saudi Arabia to execute people for being gay. Proof? The computer said so.
And in any other country it boils down to variations of that principle. Justify oppression, discrimination, torture and murder by the “impartial” decision of the computer algorithm fine tuned to make exactly that decision.
I agree, and as I keep trying to point out to people in the U.S., I’m pretty sure the reason Trump is not even giving GOP loyalists emergency disaster money when something happens in their state, is because there’s nothing left.
He literally put all of America’s eggs in one basket because he (and Peter Thiel) thought/think if they just deregulate everything and keep throwing money at it as fast as possible they will win, and other countries will be coming to us to buy our AI.
Tbf they are definitely planning to use it for evil, not to make humanity better, but I still don’t see why anybody would buy AI tech from the U.S.
I am wondering what happened in Brussels though, that made them say they’re considering some deregulation.
Trump was also very pissy at all of the EU but apparently Brussels in particular really hurt his ego
AI is most useful for surveillance and social engineering. It’s no wonder all the fascists love it.
I wonder how hard it is to gather private info on Palantir CEO and upper management 🤔
I personally have no problem with AI (all your problems with AI can be solved by overthrowing capitalism), but I don’t want to hear anything from these guys.
Sound advice would be to adopt the opposite position of anything that sociopath says.
Who cares what Peter Thiel thinks about anything. He’s a leading cause of the plutocracy that is now happening in the United States, and that’s one of his better points.
Even if he was knowledgeable on the subject he has a biased take anyway.
Teal boy has a bias alright, it’s the lense of pure fucking evil and greed.
The only care I have for his opinion is to know it to actively do the opposite at every occasion in an effort to make the world a better place.
I’m not saying I believe its important, the president believes it’s important bc Thiel has been funding him and making policy decisions since his first term, most people (myself included) just didn’t notice it until the second one.
The first time, he tried to promote AI deregulation while insisting we would retain American values that helped us be better than China’s surveillance state, but then Trump lost power and Thiel lost 4 years of progress at the global AI table because of those values (democracy and the constitution). Now that he’s gotten his seat back he’s not going to risk ever letting it go. IF he ever intended to try to maintain or respect those values before, he certainly doesn’t now.
That is why the truth behind Trump/JD Vance/Adrian Vermeule’s argument for a constitutional interpretation of strong executive authority needs to be made loud and clear.
I cannot comprehend how anyone who is not already a billionaire could be dumb enough to support this, but let’s just be honest about what you’re supporting.
this dude should really choke on it.
That guy should get a haircut and get a proper job.
there was this microblogmeme where the joke was like “u need the ai to do your work because you’re too shit? do u need it to do your art for you because you can’t? u need it to fuck your wife for u also? fucking loser” and i think it’d fit here but couldn’t find it :( add: also why u gotta sully Tolkien’s name by naming your Military Industrial Complex AI-powered Snitching Machine Apparatus after his word? fuck you for that especially, please die to bullet wounds rn
right on, thanks!
you’re welcome, now please fuck my wife already
despite what my lightning fast intellect, general tendency to hallucinate, and inability to work properly because of capitalism may lead you to believe, i am not chatgpt
