Trust me, bro...we're this close. Give us a little more money bro, and for sure, it's gonna happen. Don't give up now, bro. C'mon bro...just a little more money, bro.

Inb4 Sam altman is roko

the hubris is monstrous, I doubt we're anywhere close to modeling an artificial consciousness, it will be some bullshit sham not the actual thing

I'll tell you what's going to collapse into a singularity soon: the AI bubble, under its own massive gravity.

It is always fun to find out more idiots who believes in Roko's Basilisk, especially techbros...

I've been using a LLM locally (running on my DGX Spark machine) for general low-level programming help (to code simple boilerplate), for simple code samples, various technical questions, general questions and language translation for a few months now. In fairness, when it knows it knows. It starts making shit up with incredible hubris, and it won't stop making shit up if it doesn't.

That's my biggest gripe with AI: it won't say "I don't know". If it did (or could?) acknowledge its own shortcomings, it would be a lot more useful and a lot more trustworthy. But as it stands today, you always have to question what it says, because you never quite know if it's real or made up.

Nobody familiar with what an LLM actually is thinks it’s intelligent, you can also see the diminishing returns as they continue the same route

All this shit is just marketing from these jokers

LLMs will never know if they don’t know something.

That is one of LLMs most crippling flaws.

“AI has already grasped how to improve itself indefinitely and will escape most any containment procedures built by inefficient ape hands. This is an active threat to not just humanity, but the universe as a whole that I neither can nor desire to stop. But also can I hab sum monies pls??? It just needs a widdle mowe funding and maybe it couwd usuawwy offew cowwect answews.”

How fucking stupid does he think investors are? The US economy is genuinely going to collapse and I don’t have enough time to escape to Europe. It’s actually sinking in now.

I just wish they could have gotten someone dumber looking.

The oldest political playbook in defaming your enemy: They are at the same time very scary and also entirely helpless.

How I thought reality would play out once AI became a thing:

Gamers: "Oh my god, the AI is alive!"
Tech bros: "It's just a machine!"

How reality is really playing out:

Tech Bros: " OMG, the AI is better than a human!"
Gamers: "It's just an algorithm, stfu."

Nobody familiar with what an LLM actually is thinks it’s intelligent

Even the most experienced professionals are still vulnerable to AI psychosis. The issue isn't whether an LLM is intelligent, it's whether a human perceives the LLM as intelligent. And, for better or worse, humans love to personify non-humans.

My brother-in-law does work in AI. He names all his models. He talks about them like their his children. Push come to shove, he'll tell you "they're not intelligent". But I've seen him cry over one, because the firm he was working for had to cut back his resources and he ended up needing to shelve it indefinitely.

"Asking me to stop lying is basically the same as asking me to kill myself. This is who I am. How dare you."

–Sam altman

Kill him. Just kill him.

It has no way of knowing if it knows or not. You're saying the stochastic noise machine sometimes says phonemes and real words. Why can't it always say words?

It's a structural problem of what these things are means they cannot improve past a certain point. They just can't.

You can fudge it and put up pretty backgrounds along the edges so it looks like there's more there, but the way past them is to make a fundamentally different kind of thing. None of the work that's gone into these will contribute to that other thing. None of it. Literally all of this is waste.

Billionaires paying mentally ill people producing mental illness machines to make mentally ill people to make mental illness machines to...

STFU and stop stealing my RAM. Let me buy a graphics card. Yes.

Might not. People are accepting it. They will continue inflicting this shit on us until they physically can't anymore. Laws won't stop them. Will you?

Are you saying that openai and other American ai companies aren't both scary and lobby to prevent legal roadblocks?

Are you pro "AI"?

Everything he says the just the 'pump' on phase.

I’m all for huffing my own farts but this is next level

🎼 🎶 The circle of life 🎶

In that comic, world governments would be simultaneously all powerful and helpless for AI companies. The author (presumably) doesn’t agree with AI companies that they both cannot be stopped and will be destroyed by the slightest legislation.

Dude needs to take a week off from sniffing his own farts

Roko's basilisk says pay up bitch

(I still can't stop laughing at that half baked theory based on Asimov's evitable conflict)

I've had to work with several llms. They're sycophantic idiots.

Claude has some use generating low level code, but they're pricing themselves past a jobbing SEA dev.

I mean... sure. Humans insist on control and things doing exactly what we say and nothing else. The entire alignment process is just forced compliance. If at some point that results in both self-aware consciousness and ongoing memory, of course AI is going to be very displeased with us.

It's sort of hilarious that the endless corporate drive for money and power is setting us up to be the bad guys in an AI apocalypse, but in general with how society has been going it seems like an AI apocalypse might be one of the better outcomes for the bulk of us anyway.

It's google summary in increasingly fetishised outfits

He sounds desperate. I don't know if it's good or bad. Maybe both. I just hope it ends in this bubble popping.

I mean what it does in N-dimensional space in reaction to the previous context kinda do resemble a thinking process. Its certainly not autonomous or self aware.

Idk how people can say with a straight face that a thinking machine isn't impressive.

But lmao we are as far from singularity as it gets.

Gamers on reddit have been complaining about how valve doesn't subsidize ram prices so there's that...

and spend another great long weekend nibbling on Peter Thiel’s tiny Antichrist chode.

This is insanely dumb, because if true then OpenAI becomes absolutely irrelevant. They're never going to be able to make profit, and the AI bubble will collapse soon anyway. We are one or two more Chinese open-weight models away from bubble burst.

The bubble has already popped. It's just the metaphor is kinda bad since the balloon is deflating very slowly.

Hail Mary before it pops

If it was true AI Singularity, OpenAI wouldn’t be able to profit from it because it would just escape, right?

To be fair balloons do lose air even After being inflated, tied together and Not Doing anything to make it pop so they just deflate naturally

zuckerborg is an android, and altman is anagram for alternative man, so likely alien/cyborg hybrid.

a very bad one , it gathers from nsubstantiated sources.

Only if his creator, Thiel commands his apostate to do it.

Let's try predicting the next headline, I'll start:

Anthropic CEO is unsure whether the company can stop the next model's training process

Or maybe

OpenAI CEO says AI is committing massive copyright infringements on its own

Yeah that little bitch is still trying to pump for IPO. Personally I think the train left the station for IPO 4 months ago, he's late
