No, that’s google. A leaked memo indicates that they deliberately made search worse so people would have to search twice and see twice the number of ads

AI companies lose money every time someone uses it. Even those that charge per-token

If it worked they could be profitable already instead of continuing to burn billions of investment dollars.

You guys, the truth is way more depressing. They are not even smart enough to be as evil as you're giving them credit for.

This is the entire business model for most if not all of tech really

That is just utter bullshit. Hallucinations are a by-product of how LLMs work under the hood, not an intentional design choice. An AI that doesn't make mistakes would be orders of magnitude more profitable.

And when we're done fixing, we're unnecessary and have time to eat the rich \o/

One can dream .. why not replace billionaires with AI too?

Also, when you get used to relying on ai, you lose the practice and forget part fo your knowledge and skills. So, if you try to stop using ai, you will first have a steep decrease in productivity as you have to resharp your skills and remember a lot of stuff, and that creates a barrier preventing people from going out

and then fix the new mistakes it made while trying to fix the old ones and

Unless you pay more for the better model, then it makes slightly less mistakes.

I partially agree with the idea that AI is the same as industrial revolution. Yes, AI is just as revolutionary as steam engine.

Except we are currently at the stage steam engine was in ancient Greece and Roman Empire - a curiosity too expensive to use for value it provides and too crude to provide anything better.

Luckily ancient times didn't have billionaires playing speculative gambling on economy by trying to push any new thing as something revolutionizing right now.

Let the AI flop now, wait a few centuries and it will return better.

I don't need a machine to make mistakes. 😤

"Drug companies sell drugs to make you more sick!" vibes.

I use local AI models to improve my process. I pay zero, and they do a pretty good job of taking the grunt work out of my tasks

Not to be that guy, but that's some weak ass strawman bullshit.

Surely you can think of a more solid point of critisism than whatever that was.

It's not that. It's the idea that by being right just a bit more times than wrong, statistically this would bring out good results if you try it enough times. If that doesn't happen, it's really your fault 😀.
