Nobody is being "targeted", yet. But it's pretty obvious how you can apply this tech to do a Journo's work, or at least most of it. GPT-4 can read text and images; in principle it ought to be able to do the work most journalists do, which is summarize what's going on on Twitter or that has been reported on by the Associated Press.
Journalists are already on suicide watch because nobody reads their shitty articles or watches their shitty videos
Most journals run on a skeleton crew
Everyone else is "freelance" and basically posts on Twitter all day
I'm a freelance content writer (not a journo). The entire field is dead because AI has killed the regular Joe's need for content - admission letters, whitepapers, press releases, whatever. As for journos, you're confusing clickbait with actual quality work - it's true that few people read it, but that's not the problem of people willing to do honest research. Then again no one cares. It's also important to note that these algos steal content and repurpose it without consequence.
Sure niche markets will still exist, but this means most of the jobs are gone. I think literary translations might be exempt.
Feels fucking bad man. Even copywriting (the coveted highly paid copywriting) is about to be fucking dead with ChatGPT4, ChatGPT5 etc.
Yeah. There used to be a specific subset of writing tasks that people running various wordpress sites wanted - to get a 3000-word article about a certain topic because in their mind it improved SEO. Those articles are meant for the crawlers to read, in other words. Well, now AI will crawl and repurpose human content and then upload it for the other AI to crawl. Double crawl, zero job.
Writers need to specialize in a niche that is not allowed like pornography that violates thought crime laws. Also Nazi fantasy, genocide fiction, hate literature, and so on. You'll just have to find the customers, but I'm sure they are out there.

Not really? Actual journalism is still something that an AI can't really do, even if it is as mindnumbingly simple as doing a review on yet another boring ass incremental, this-one-new-thing-justifies-a-new-model update of a Galaxy or iPone.
"Journalists", such as "I went on reddit today" or "here is MY summary of a different person's work" already know their work is worthless so they're not too huffed about it, or rather have already accepted their fate
How can you train a model to learn about people's biographies without some human having written original things about them? If that sort of thing becomes a trend we will just spiral downwards feeding the AI on it's own shit until neither any human ("why waste time learning it bro the AI does it") nor any AI knows anything. This could set off the new dark ages
The harm to journalists is most delicious, but at the same time GPT will be more effective and efficient at propaganda molding than humans. It could be directed specifically at demographics in a way that is not financially feasible right now. No corner of society will be safe from hardcore, heavily-customized brainfuck.
Still though... I want to see journos crying in the streets pulling their hair more than anything. That is fine, this is fine.

Not the teachers either, I imagine this is going to change schooling forever.
An AI teacher honed to you, that can follow a curriculum and knows the most efficient ways to teach you, what material interests you, what your strengths and weaknesses are. Estimated IQ so it can teach more complex stuff depending on the student, etc. (and maybe psychological knowledge on children and teenagers)

small-scale NLP just sucks in general. i was using tons of different named entity recognizers and classifiers at work and it turns out just writing a robust rule-based method gets me to 97% accuracy whilst any out of the box NLP method (and probably llms at that) were <90%

Whatever you're doing will be deemed "inefficient" and you'll be forced to give up what you have.

GPT-4 is a LLM, Large Language models are large language models, language models are generalization ideas from NLP, you can translate NLP problems to query a language model.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Language_model
LLM are just massive good at it, LLM is like NLP, like Deep Learning CNN are for Computer Vision.
It's a matter of closed-form solutions. Sure, you can use a N billion parameter model to overfit into any number of problems of reduced complexity (literally every single dynamic process in the universe), but because of the convolutional bullshit that needs to happen to statistically accomodate all those parameters and still converge on a model, you lost all non-statistical meaning to each parameter. They've all turned into this hyperdimensional statistical goop matrix whose correctness space as N grows approaches [-inf, inf] but still has measure 0 kek. You never get answers, just less and less bad answers, and certainly no real understanding of any of the processes that actually generate your inputs in the first place.
Even worse, as your N grows, your correctedness space grows, but you lose more and more flexibility and agility. The markov chain models that powered spam bots of the early 2000s could barely trick a 80year grandma in a chinese room test, and ChatGPT3 beats anyone. But the markov chain modelers trianed on English data could look at a dictionary and do just as good a job in chinese. ChatGPT can't even parse French. A 16 year old highschooler can be given a graph of a gene signalling pathway and they can instantly identify key features. ChatGPT4 can't, even though they trained it on literally the entirety of KEGG, JCDB, Entrez, and Ensemble annotations. It can spit back and summarize input from there, but doing something as simple as telling which gene interacts the most with other genes is out of it's power. It does text, images, and code. It can produce linear combinations of it's inputs. That's it. It can never be used to study any emergent property.
ChatGPT/LLM AI is a dud. Wake me up when they can get Non-negative matrix facotrization models to converge. That'll get God's attention.
That's the nature of AI. Something more general in nature always appears and solves previous problems better than the old methods in addition to solving new problems entirely.
This tech is literally useless if you don't know how to actually create prompts and provide proper input. The only jobs this will wipe out are menial workers and middle management who whip the menial workers into line.
It is not that much better than anything there is, Flamingo was able to explain jokes, like 3 months ago, and it is not even about that. Even it was much better, it is about the fact that they don't tell what they discovered, so teams don't really know whether they rediscovered it or discovered something new. It causes a lot of confusion.
Doesn't GPT-4 still need to be trained on stuff, instead of being able to arbitrarily generalize to anything? I would think that something like working on custom niche datasets would be one of the few things still required
being flexible and making use of the latest tech is a stable for academia why would you be afraid instead of embracing it your job might be in danger if you can't prove yourself useful but now you have a "AI" to help find your niche.
I work as a junior NLP researcher at a small company and everyone is worried. OpenAI's GPT-4 is superior to anything we could come up with and even the seniors are convinced our field will not exist in 10-20 years.
AI just killing off an entire branch of linguistics meaning there won't be any progress anymore in that area demonstrates perfectly why using AI is bad and you should feel bad if you use it like that
NLP doesn't bother with anything from linguistics at all, it's just bruteforce feature extraction from audio and feeding large amounts of text. NLPcels get what they fucking deserve
If you're not the biggest monster on the block or aligned with the biggest monster, the biggest monster will devour you and squat on your lands for ever. There is no stopping it now. Its an arms race. Whomever gets the killbots deployed first, wins.
Judgre dredd movie with 98% unemployment and basic income (which still sucks since it gives you one crappy tiny room of a home and protein cubes) that seemed like such a surreal concept is gonna become a reality in our life time huh.
I see this as the opportunity of a lifetime. If you have any sort of big project but never had the money or connections to get it off the ground - with ai you can easily just make it yourself alone. I was always more of a jack of all trades type so the cool thing with AI is I don't have to specialize anymore and can just be a control freak and study everything myself so it looks, feels, and sounds perfect.
>If you have any sort of big project but never had the money or connections to get it off the ground - with ai you can easily just make it yourself alone.
We are 5-10 years away from people being able to make entire animated films by themselves. Have great ideas but no money or artistic talent? Doesn't matter, ai will voice, animate, and compose a soundtrack for your film exactly how you want it to be. We're almost certainly going to get some incredible works this way, since artists having to compromise their vision in order to secure funding or work with a team rarely leads to a better final product.
People won't be watching movies. Everyone will have a manual labor or service job that occupies their entire day and unemployment won't be an option because all non-workers get forced into those suicide pods.
Not really. Haredi garden gnomes in Israel don't work but still live on neetbux spending their time studying torah and I see no reason that entire humanity will be any different from them in the future.

Shut the fuck up, retard. You idiots have been claiming that this sort of thing is right around the corner for well over a century at this point.
I think it's even sooner provided you outsource music - there are sites where you can just quickly sample music to find stuff that suits the project you are working. You will have to pay a onetime fee for the right to use the song but this can be done quickly with no development time.
AI voice is already here and a fully functioning free version is nearly a thing too.
Hollywood and AAA gaming has to be panicking right now since all they make is Marvel garbage and sequels. There is no originality left there. If you have any sort of vision you can easily steal the markets of these longtime institutions. We're gonna have a massive wave of new creators for anime/manga/movies/tv/videogames/cartoons/comics. And no one will be able to censor any of it anymore. The elites are definetely gonna do everything to censor and take this away since they can't just easily outspend someone else's passion project now with an AI studio to help him make it in record time for pennies.
I figured the main bottleneck right now is the computing power needed for full animation. But yeah, we're either heading into a bright future where artists can share their full, uncompromising vision with the world. or some horrible dystopia where individuals are forbidden to access this technology and corporate and commercial art is created fully by ai with no human input whatsoever.
There's nowhere to go if AI can do anything that doesn't require hands and walking. I've said before that a service economy is a servant economy. Everyone will be acting as maids and cooks and deliverymen for each other, instead of doing those things for themselves. Employment may become increasingly pointless, but it will persist because it's a critical component of private property laws.
That's still very different than the removal of all existing welfare systems, everyone being forced to work for "the entire day", and non-workers being euthanized. Getting to that point without revolution would require easing into it over the course of decades and the speed of AI development will make that an impossibility.

Employment becomes the welfare system, it already is in most countries. And without important specialist jobs people become worthless and lose bargaining power. Do you think people aren't being worked to death without rest in rich developed countries right now? Every other week some cleaning company or a restaurant is busted making people work 14 hours a day and withholding payment for months, and food delivery drivers are on the clock 24 hours of the day waiting for calls because that's just how things are done in that industry. It'll be like that, for everyone everywhere. People who can't deal with that will get sent to counseling or someshit where they will be gaslit into signing the suicide papers and it will be celebrated as a caring and humane solution that spares people from enduring a slower death in welfare-less unemployment.
You think a revolution is possible? It only becomes possible if things are so bad that industrial civilisation has already collapsed and there's nothing to reclaim or rebuild upon.

Because those people are illegal immigrants who, for obvious reasons, don't know about or don't want to interact with government agencies that enforce worker's rights laws. Even in countries like the U.S. that are strongly on the side of corporations rather than workers. the situation you describe would require the repeal of centuries of laws protecting the rights of workers.

>would require the repeal of centuries of laws protecting the rights of workers
This was already accomplished in a roundabout way, by labeling workers as entrepreneurs or independent contractors. There are other methods too, like chain-hiring someone for short periods instead of making them a permanent hire who would become entitled to certain benefits and protections. And extended internships or just constantly rotating people in and out of internships and never actually hiring any real employees.

don't forget about mafias and hackers who might be out there to get the AI devs. I think it should be more apparent that people should practice opsec better now due to how much sensitive information they own, remember that thing where someone used plex server and got hacked? that's some level 5/5 hacker execution right there. not even skid level but clearly the AI devs are the ones targeted by glows if the elites somehow think it's a threat to their stranglehold.

It's a legal fiction. period. There are a few countries that didn't ratify Berne convention in the world, so people can set up a paper company there.

Why? Machine learning means they can fire everyone and only spend money on computer farms to produce more shit faster. No one's gonna be able to compete with their ability to manufacture interest in brands just as it's been for the last 100 years.
at this point the BEST JOB right now is actually a suicide counselor.

I'm pretty much sure it will be when the growth of technology accellerates so much that we have this cosmic horrors beyond our comprehension, many people will fall ill and get depression and suicidal thoughts of the massive disconnect in human and artificial consciousness. also working for the government or ngo for animal research/care center is probably also a good job.
This is the kind of thing that only a massive corporation or a government could afford to do. The small ai guys never stood a chance. Not everyone has a top 5 supercomputer laying around to train a model with, and very few companies on earth could absorb the million dollars a day it's taking to let everyone play with it for free for publicity, even if it is free beta testing.
These days by the time a kid is old enough to do any kind of hacking there's a perfect data profile of them possessed by every relevant agency on the planet, they'll disappear into the anus of cybersecurity after their first attempt.
GPT is great for society as it creates more people needing handouts from the government. Why even have people when you could run the ideal economy without any people.
>Why even have people when you could run the ideal economy without any people.
And then we can get rid of money finally and then the government (populated by people at least).

Imagine the journey to get there where a few hold all the power and you have to struggle to survive, maybe even selling your work for peanuts.
small-scale NLP just sucks in general. i was using tons of different named entity recognizers and classifiers at work and it turns out just writing a robust rule-based method gets me to 97% accuracy whilst any out of the box NLP method (and probably llms at that) were <90%
Your government gives ~~*the banks*~~ free money so they can bet on stupid shit and ruin people's lives.
Computation will be centralized and regulated.
Welcome to the consequence of your inaction.

Not for long, fucker.

White collar work anon. You're going to live in Mike Rowe's dystopia. Now learn some underwater welding, your life is cheaper than Boston Dynamics' latest spawn.
>your life is cheaper than Boston Dynamics' latest spawn.
Unironically, this.
You're just cattle.
You think machines will set you free.
Well, congratulations. You're no longer a beast of burden.
You will live your whole life in a clamped pen filled with your own piss and shit waiting to be milked and eventually slaughtered.
You all will be equal: equally miserable. Except, of course, the 0.5% who own all the world's computation power and they're sure as shit aren't democratically elected.
>ai took ai researchers jobs
Lmao
GPT-4 is a LLM, Large Language models are large language models, language models are generalization ideas from NLP, you can translate NLP problems to query a language model.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Language_model
LLM are just massive good at it, LLM is like NLP, like Deep Learning CNN are for Computer Vision.
>scalegays were right
APOLOGIZE
It's a matter of closed-form solutions. Sure, you can use a N billion parameter model to overfit into any number of problems of reduced complexity (literally every single dynamic process in the universe), but because of the convolutional bullshit that needs to happen to statistically accomodate all those parameters and still converge on a model, you lost all non-statistical meaning to each parameter. They've all turned into this hyperdimensional statistical goop matrix whose correctness space as N grows approaches [-inf, inf] but still has measure 0 kek. You never get answers, just less and less bad answers, and certainly no real understanding of any of the processes that actually generate your inputs in the first place.
Even worse, as your N grows, your correctedness space grows, but you lose more and more flexibility and agility. The markov chain models that powered spam bots of the early 2000s could barely trick a 80year grandma in a chinese room test, and ChatGPT3 beats anyone. But the markov chain modelers trianed on English data could look at a dictionary and do just as good a job in chinese. ChatGPT can't even parse French. A 16 year old highschooler can be given a graph of a gene signalling pathway and they can instantly identify key features. ChatGPT4 can't, even though they trained it on literally the entirety of KEGG, JCDB, Entrez, and Ensemble annotations. It can spit back and summarize input from there, but doing something as simple as telling which gene interacts the most with other genes is out of it's power. It does text, images, and code. It can produce linear combinations of it's inputs. That's it. It can never be used to study any emergent property.
ChatGPT/LLM AI is a dud. Wake me up when they can get Non-negative matrix facotrization models to converge. That'll get God's attention.
that's a lot of big words you got there, mister.
>ChatGPT can't even parse French
it trades blows with deepL
It's like complaining that a shovel digs better than your bare hands. How about you use the shovel?
Neither of these twitter accounts exist? What the fuck is this thread?
Silenced by the AI already
Both of these twitter accounts exist. What the fuck is this post?
just train your ai on BOT and set it loose
everything will sort itself out
vg with that thread to post ratio goddamn
well yeah it's all generals
why is there no /gg/?

jesus
That's the nature of AI. Something more general in nature always appears and solves previous problems better than the old methods in addition to solving new problems entirely.
>another tweeter thread
BOT culture. People can't come up with any discussion here so they find something posted somewhere else to bring it here for (You)s. Enjoy it.
Also here you can freely say 'moron moron moron garden gnome'.
peer to peer open ai network, shared datasets akin to torrenting
Man I had this idea a while back but know absolutely jack shit about p2p, I think itd be a cool idea but the distributed training might be a challenge
>peer to peer open ai network
Until some entity purposely poisons part of the ai network. '''Open''' won't ever work.
I have the safest job from automation, I work for the US Government. We're like 20 years behind in technologically.
Based. I'd like to see ChatGPT try to write a COBOL module.
This is why I encourage everyone to become fucking criminals at this point go with a no fucks given attitude.
This is stupid. Everything was over for those people in 2018 when BERT was released. How long did it take themto realize?
This tech is literally useless if you don't know how to actually create prompts and provide proper input. The only jobs this will wipe out are menial workers and middle management who whip the menial workers into line.
>are menial workers and middle management who whip the menial workers into line.
That's 90% of humanity.
garden gnomes are clearly master race confirmed after this
It is not that much better than anything there is, Flamingo was able to explain jokes, like 3 months ago, and it is not even about that. Even it was much better, it is about the fact that they don't tell what they discovered, so teams don't really know whether they rediscovered it or discovered something new. It causes a lot of confusion.
It's because there is nothing to learn.
Doesn't GPT-4 still need to be trained on stuff, instead of being able to arbitrarily generalize to anything? I would think that something like working on custom niche datasets would be one of the few things still required
>another AI is killing us all thread
Reminder that all porn artists will be gassed for spamming this place.
being flexible and making use of the latest tech is a stable for academia why would you be afraid instead of embracing it your job might be in danger if you can't prove yourself useful but now you have a "AI" to help find your niche.
I work as a junior NLP researcher at a small company and everyone is worried. OpenAI's GPT-4 is superior to anything we could come up with and even the seniors are convinced our field will not exist in 10-20 years.
AI just killing off an entire branch of linguistics meaning there won't be any progress anymore in that area demonstrates perfectly why using AI is bad and you should feel bad if you use it like that
NLP doesn't bother with anything from linguistics at all, it's just bruteforce feature extraction from audio and feeding large amounts of text. NLPcels get what they fucking deserve
Based based based
Everyone should just touch grass and learn to do hard labour instead of coding shit
There's just not that much hard labor around. Already that market is oversaturated tremendously.
Ban AI, its satanic and everyone involved should be executed
If you're not the biggest monster on the block or aligned with the biggest monster, the biggest monster will devour you and squat on your lands for ever. There is no stopping it now. Its an arms race. Whomever gets the killbots deployed first, wins.

hahahahaha
Judgre dredd movie with 98% unemployment and basic income (which still sucks since it gives you one crappy tiny room of a home and protein cubes) that seemed like such a surreal concept is gonna become a reality in our life time huh.
except without the basic income
>someone did our job better than us, oh no!
sucks to suck
I see this as the opportunity of a lifetime. If you have any sort of big project but never had the money or connections to get it off the ground - with ai you can easily just make it yourself alone. I was always more of a jack of all trades type so the cool thing with AI is I don't have to specialize anymore and can just be a control freak and study everything myself so it looks, feels, and sounds perfect.
>If you have any sort of big project but never had the money or connections to get it off the ground - with ai you can easily just make it yourself alone.
We are 5-10 years away from people being able to make entire animated films by themselves. Have great ideas but no money or artistic talent? Doesn't matter, ai will voice, animate, and compose a soundtrack for your film exactly how you want it to be. We're almost certainly going to get some incredible works this way, since artists having to compromise their vision in order to secure funding or work with a team rarely leads to a better final product.
People won't be watching movies. Everyone will have a manual labor or service job that occupies their entire day and unemployment won't be an option because all non-workers get forced into those suicide pods.
Not really. Haredi garden gnomes in Israel don't work but still live on neetbux spending their time studying torah and I see no reason that entire humanity will be any different from them in the future.
>spending their time studying torah
What the hell is there even to to study about? The book has been out for hundreds of years, every concept in that god fanfic has been done to death.
>doomposting blah blah
Shut the fuck up, retard. You idiots have been claiming that this sort of thing is right around the corner for well over a century at this point.
I figured the main bottleneck right now is the computing power needed for full animation. But yeah, we're either heading into a bright future where artists can share their full, uncompromising vision with the world. or some horrible dystopia where individuals are forbidden to access this technology and corporate and commercial art is created fully by ai with no human input whatsoever.
There's nowhere to go if AI can do anything that doesn't require hands and walking. I've said before that a service economy is a servant economy. Everyone will be acting as maids and cooks and deliverymen for each other, instead of doing those things for themselves. Employment may become increasingly pointless, but it will persist because it's a critical component of private property laws.
That's still very different than the removal of all existing welfare systems, everyone being forced to work for "the entire day", and non-workers being euthanized. Getting to that point without revolution would require easing into it over the course of decades and the speed of AI development will make that an impossibility.
Employment becomes the welfare system, it already is in most countries. And without important specialist jobs people become worthless and lose bargaining power. Do you think people aren't being worked to death without rest in rich developed countries right now? Every other week some cleaning company or a restaurant is busted making people work 14 hours a day and withholding payment for months, and food delivery drivers are on the clock 24 hours of the day waiting for calls because that's just how things are done in that industry. It'll be like that, for everyone everywhere. People who can't deal with that will get sent to counseling or someshit where they will be gaslit into signing the suicide papers and it will be celebrated as a caring and humane solution that spares people from enduring a slower death in welfare-less unemployment.
You think a revolution is possible? It only becomes possible if things are so bad that industrial civilisation has already collapsed and there's nothing to reclaim or rebuild upon.
>Every other week some cleaning company or a restaurant is busted making people work 14 hours a day and withholding payment for months
Because those people are illegal immigrants who, for obvious reasons, don't know about or don't want to interact with government agencies that enforce worker's rights laws. Even in countries like the U.S. that are strongly on the side of corporations rather than workers. the situation you describe would require the repeal of centuries of laws protecting the rights of workers.
>would require the repeal of centuries of laws protecting the rights of workers
This was already accomplished in a roundabout way, by labeling workers as entrepreneurs or independent contractors. There are other methods too, like chain-hiring someone for short periods instead of making them a permanent hire who would become entitled to certain benefits and protections. And extended internships or just constantly rotating people in and out of internships and never actually hiring any real employees.
I think it's even sooner provided you outsource music - there are sites where you can just quickly sample music to find stuff that suits the project you are working. You will have to pay a onetime fee for the right to use the song but this can be done quickly with no development time.
AI voice is already here and a fully functioning free version is nearly a thing too.
Hollywood and AAA gaming has to be panicking right now since all they make is Marvel garbage and sequels. There is no originality left there. If you have any sort of vision you can easily steal the markets of these longtime institutions. We're gonna have a massive wave of new creators for anime/manga/movies/tv/videogames/cartoons/comics. And no one will be able to censor any of it anymore. The elites are definetely gonna do everything to censor and take this away since they can't just easily outspend someone else's passion project now with an AI studio to help him make it in record time for pennies.
don't forget about mafias and hackers who might be out there to get the AI devs. I think it should be more apparent that people should practice opsec better now due to how much sensitive information they own, remember that thing where someone used plex server and got hacked? that's some level 5/5 hacker execution right there. not even skid level but clearly the AI devs are the ones targeted by glows if the elites somehow think it's a threat to their stranglehold.
>Hollywood and AAA gaming has to be panicking right now since all they make is Marvel garbage and sequels.
What are copyrights?
>What are copyrights?
It's a legal fiction. period. There are a few countries that didn't ratify Berne convention in the world, so people can set up a paper company there.
>Hollywood and AAA gaming has to be panicking right now
Why? Machine learning means they can fire everyone and only spend money on computer farms to produce more shit faster. No one's gonna be able to compete with their ability to manufacture interest in brands just as it's been for the last 100 years.
>We're almost certainly going to get some incredible works this way
kek no, how many great novels have been self published?
at this point the BEST JOB right now is actually a suicide counselor.
lmao
I'm pretty much sure it will be when the growth of technology accellerates so much that we have this cosmic horrors beyond our comprehension, many people will fall ill and get depression and suicidal thoughts of the massive disconnect in human and artificial consciousness. also working for the government or ngo for animal research/care center is probably also a good job.
just let them die
there are too much humans anyway
there's an entire army of desperate coomers willing to pay hundreds of dollars a month for a fully uncensored waifubot.

This is the kind of thing that only a massive corporation or a government could afford to do. The small ai guys never stood a chance. Not everyone has a top 5 supercomputer laying around to train a model with, and very few companies on earth could absorb the million dollars a day it's taking to let everyone play with it for free for publicity, even if it is free beta testing.
not all kinds of AI require you to do this but it's easier to get customer data when you make everyone believe this is the case
Where did all the hackers go
seriously
in the old days all this shit would've been leaked immediately
These days by the time a kid is old enough to do any kind of hacking there's a perfect data profile of them possessed by every relevant agency on the planet, they'll disappear into the anus of cybersecurity after their first attempt.
They are all working on getting the AI to act like their GF. Just look at /aicg/
good. maybe AI researchers can go back to being scientists instead of benchmark monkeys who only care about that 0.1% improvement on sota
GPT is great for society as it creates more people needing handouts from the government. Why even have people when you could run the ideal economy without any people.
>Why even have people when you could run the ideal economy without any people.
And then we can get rid of money finally and then the government (populated by people at least).
>Boring nursing home concentration camp world will be awesome guys
I take solace in knowing that there will be some kind of jacobin revolution that kills all of the people that are keeping things running and results in the deaths of billions.
