Is AI overhyped?

This whole OpenAI kerfuffle got me thinking, is AI overhyped as fug?

We got autistic silicon valley gays with an exagerrated delusion of grandeur destroying their AI companies because they think they're at the the forefront of some technological-sociological paradigm shift and they need to take control of the wheel to stir humanity to a better path.

But I just don't see AI changing things for me aside from creating a few cool apps. I think we will most likely enter another AI dark age where progress slow down before things get really interesting. Am I just an ill informed pleb?

      It's overhyped as frick. It's a fricking chatbot. A pretty good chatbot, but if you gave someone who previously programmed chatbots the same resources that OAI got, you'd get a better than average chatbot from them, too.

      We'll get AI-gen movies, series, custom AI gen music to stream, etc. IOW, more shit to waste your time on. Excellent distraction material. Manufacturers will get some tech that marginally improves their bottom line because of robots, better assembly routes, etc. MIC will get some scary accurate and automated armaments, which is a real cause of concern, but the solution to which is not terribly different than those used to address land- and sea-mines, war gases, biological weapons, and so on.

      overhyped as frick. ChatGPT can't even code a rock paper scissors game properly. Forget about applying it to law, accounting, IT, or anything fricking else.

      the only good ai solutions for problems were made WITH HUMAN GUIDANCE and add ons. Think Kubernetes for AI cybersecurity, the neural imaging thing from UT Austin, and AI website builders.

      This, too. I'm not impressed at all by ChatGPT. It's better than most, sure, but at best it's a replacement for all those Quora-type sites.

      Yet they are not going anywhere, chinks and euros are planning to build more and more of them. Smartphones were still kinda shit in 2008.

      >Smartphones were still kinda shit in 2008.
      Smartphones hardly existed in 2008. Your options were, what? The OG iPhone? BB or Nokia's thing? Chatbots have been around forever. We used to run them on forums 15 years ago and they did a pretty good job impersonating users. Considering the massive increase in resources and compute for ChatGPT, the results indicate some serious diminishing returns.

      AI is limited greatly by its input. So all the art AI you see is just a better looking version of whatever coomers and artists were drawing for centuries. Ai is not creative, nothing original will stem from AI. People who take AI seriously are people dont understand high school maths, ie women and leftists

      I think that by 2026 it will be capable of automating ~80% of current work. By 2030 it will actually be doing this - it takes time to adopt stuff due to industry friction. I think UBI is a given because massive amounts of people will be put out of work and lots and lots of money will be generated, which can be given right back to the people. Every single politician in history wants to give you free money, because that's a very popular thing to do, but the issue is that it costs too much. If you take too much from the rich, they'll go bankrupt and you're worse off than you were before. Well, now we can have the best of both worlds, and overall we'll all be richer due to price collapse. Many things will become too cheap to meter.

      To be clear, this is my 2030 prediction, but I think we'll have AGI within the next 12 months.

The public's consciousness with their understanding of the tech was so far behind where they were at, it seems like an insane revolution but the biggest advancement, the transformer, was made in like 2016 or something. Every advancement in AI will be incrementally better each year and won't surprise anyone, just like going from the apple 14 to 15.

        Every politician in history really wishes he could give all of his subjects free money because that'd be a really popular move, it just turns out it costs way too much. If the latter is no longer a problem then the debate quickly becomes UBI vs. UBD/UBS i.e. alternate slightly more/less generous schemes. I favor UBD myself

                Not exactly. Up to this point, the easiest way to make progress has been to brute force progression with economies of scale. There’s been very little effort to optimize existing techniques to slim them down for consumer hardware, aside from a select few examples (Stable Diffusion being the biggest one).

                And looking at the implosion of OpenAI convinces me that they’ve reached the realistic limit of brute forcing progression via economies of scale. This is supported by the ridiculous cost that has been attested to training and operating ChatGPT.

                While your fear is understandable, the exact opposite is happening. The elites tried to gatekeep the technology to monopolize it, but have failed continuously. To such an extent that the leader in the industry is collapsing in on themselves.

                Do you have some secret OpenAI scoop that describes what actually happened? Best theories I’ve found that one of the board (De’Angelo) member’s side hustle (Poe) got blown the frick out and he was wanting to slow things down at OpenAI. Doesn’t seem like they’ve hit a snag.

                No, but I’ve worked long enough to read the signals. Sam has been vocal about the ridiculous costs of running ChatGPT, and the lapses in service for paying customers is a huge red flag that OpenAI has hit their predefined cost limit and would need more investments to continue at the pace they are going.

                The board freaked out on Sam because they are fiduciaries and are legally responsible to use investor money properly and transparently. Sam likely was being vague with the Return on Investment prospects which scared the Goldman Sachs board member because she is very aware of what fiduciary entails.

                So the snag is evident from their inability to provide continued service to paying customers, and the only reason that could be is due to them hitting cost quotas. If their operation costs that much, there is likely no ROI prospects for the investors.

                The interesting part is how Microsoft is handling this. I think they were well aware of this likely possibility and prepared to siphon the tech into Bing at first opportunity.

                Also to add to this: forcefully electing Sam was a move to signal to investors that the board tried to protect their capital investments.

                It’s also wildly suspicious that he acknowledges the costs of ChatGPT are crazy high and unsustainable, but wanted to continue commercializing ChatGPT anyway.

    Sam Altman on AI:

    “The thing most people get wrong is that if labor costs go to zero”—because smart robots have eaten all the jobs—“the cost of a great life comes way down. If we get fusion to work and electricity is free, then transportation is substantially cheaper, and the cost of electricity flows through to water and food. People pay a lot for a great education now, but you can become expert level on most things by looking at your phone. So, if an American family of four now requires seventy thousand dollars to be happy, which is the number you most often hear, then in ten to twenty years it could be an order of magnitude cheaper, with an error factor of 2x. Excluding the cost of housing, thirty-five hundred to fourteen thousand dollars could be all a family needs to enjoy a really good life.”

    "When A.I. reshapes the economy we’re going to have unlimited wealth and a huge amount of job displacement, so basic income really makes sense. Plus, the stipend will free up that one person in a million who can create the next Apple.”

        > Dissociated press is a parody generator (a computer program that generates nonsensical text). The generated text is based on another text using the Markov chain technique. The name is a play on "Associated Press" and the psychological term dissociation (although word salad is more typical of conditions like aphasia and schizophrenia – which is, however, frequently confused with dissociative identity disorder by laypeople). An implementation of the algorithm is available in Emacs. Another implementation is available as a Perl module in CPAN, Games::Dissociate.[1]

        This whole OpenAI kerfuffle got me thinking, is AI overhyped as fug?

        We got autistic silicon valley gays with an exagerrated delusion of grandeur destroying their AI companies because they think they're at the the forefront of some technological-sociological paradigm shift and they need to take control of the wheel to stir humanity to a better path.

        But I just don't see AI changing things for me aside from creating a few cool apps. I think we will most likely enter another AI dark age where progress slow down before things get really interesting. Am I just an ill informed pleb?

Yes Sam, when robots take all the jobs it will finally usher in the long-awaited golden age, and will definitely not accelerate general trends of concentration of wealth, social inequality and mass unrest, totalizing surveillance and degradation of human rights, and the depotentiation of the individual into a generic social unit fit to be manipulated.

          But the masses are more uneducated, illogical, and moronic than ever before. That won't change. Actually, dysgenics has caused real IQ to fall (anti-Flynn undercurrent) to fall since a peak at around 1750 CE for our species. And the fall is accelerating in western nations.

          Just like democracy is a scam of a political system because people are morons, democratization of information is similarly a scam because people are still morons.

    I moved to Silicon Valley in 2018 and joined an automotive company working on autonomous driving. At the time, AV companies were projecting L4 autonomy by 2020 and L5 by 2022. You had entire panels of unskilled grifters very similar to this Helen Toner chick talking about the implications of mass unemployment for the entire transportation sector (10% of all jobs). Of course, we all have seen how it has panned out. Tesla Autopilot is awful. Cruise is done for and their CEO is ousted. Waymo’s vehicle is has a $260k unit cost and they use constant human monitoring over 5G and Google’s Adsense money printer to make their mechanical Turk “work”.

    The atmosphere around LLMs today feels very similar to the atmosphere around autonomous driving in 2018. They’re good enough to impress people in demos but I dont think they’ll ever turn the corner.

    Of course. Not a single company or model that was supposedly going to change the world of X is profitable or lived up to its claims. The public discourse is entirely driven by the need for investment/fame/mercantile interest from companies that sells hardware, and is therefore completely out of touch with reality. By far the largest impact of “AI” has been on GPU sales, just like crypto. Nvidia stocks are skyrocketing and they are pissing themselves laughing while the rest of the world is drinking the kool-aid with not a shred of critical thought.
