Another example of how little genius has to do with becoming a billionaire. Or even a modicum of sense.

It's fucking enraging how stupid these billionaires actually are. How the fuck do you accumulate that much wealth, and still have no basic common sense?
Oh, right...overwhelming greed and a total lack of empathy.
Man, has anyone else noticed that LLMs are really knowledgeable about subjects you know nothing about, but useless gibbering idiots about subjects on which you are an expert?
these are the same fucking ppl convinced in their own brilliant ideas, except they have none of the skill to accomplish it, so they mooch off of other's skills. "i'm an idea man."
other ppl were always just tools to them, so they want to build a skill machine so they can remove the annoying part of being reminded that other ppl are actually talented.
fucking abhorrently inhuman.
I worked at a company run by a wealthy woman who was owner or part owner of several other businesses, and this sounds just like her. Her contribution to company operations was to run around screaming, making nonsensical/unrealistic demands. She expected other people to do whatever it took to make her demands a reality, but was convinced that she was the most valuable person there.
It's almost as if a big part of the current hype is just sociopath CEOs being sociopaths, but not being self aware about it.
One trillion. That's the amount of money that has been invested in AI.
Nah. 80% of it went to billionaires pockets, the rest of it buying power plants, funding ChatGPT wrappers, maybe less than 1% goes to researchers.
This fuck face claims to be doing "vibe physics"
This is the stupidest fucking timeline
I have an aunt who is a bit of a kook. She once bragged that while she lacked formal training in particle physics, she had a “strong intuitive grasp” of quantum mechanics, a famously counter-intuitive subject.
We laughed about it for years, but the joke is on me i guess. Here is a billionaire vibe-physicist channeling my quirky aunt in front of a global audience.
The possibility that somewhere, someone might not recognize that this guy is a mountebank disturbs me greatly.
The scary part is that theyve actually lost it. Thwy concinced themselves that AI is the future even though the whole thing is a fad. And they will die for ai, actually kill their companies for it. It actually got to the point where a new business strategy is just "do normal stuff until all the competition just kills themselves because the shareholders are delulu"
Always remember kids...just because you are rich doesn't mean you are smart.
ML is actually amazing for science.
LLMs however are absolute horseshit at science.
None of this bullshit is AI.
Because they just ask some research questions to an LLM of which they know nothing about and when the LLM flaunts all the technical jargon with complete confidence they get amazed (they also feel a kind of kinship I suppose since their literal biggest skill is to bs about stuff which they know nothing about).
AI is like good old alchemy. “Making money out of thin air?” “How much do you need?”
I hope they get it to build them a nice big ship and then get onboard.
We've had two maritime billionaire (comparative) disasters, time to reach for the stars
If they don't, they'll just make one up.
Ai+
It's the same shit, just, uh... just buy it! Yeah!
“I pinged Elon on at some point. I’m just like, dude, if I’m doing this and I’m super amateur hour physics enthusiast, like what about all those PhD students and postdocs that are super legit using this tool?” Kalanick said.
Dude is right here on the Dunning Kruger curve.

Can't wait for AI peer(AI) reviewed papers to set the standards for health (eat rocks) cooking (add glue to pizza) and physics (gravity is just buoyancy)
The discovery is that people will accept any discovery without knowing how the discovery was made, then use another fallible LLM to verify it.
Nah, they’re just tugging each other off so the VCs will keep making it rain
Well, with all those scientists putting documents in clouds like google / aws, and with those companies happily using that data to train their models, it's totally plausible that they'll announce potential breakthroughs before the scientists officially do... without crediting the source... making it seem like the LLM did a science.
