I’m no English major, but I’m pretty sure @[email protected] calling it weird is a rhetorical device known as sarcasm.

Be very careful wheb defederating

Regardless of your intent, the context in which you make a statement matters. You were wondering why people were down voting you so I’m just letting you know. You don’t have to like it but that’s the way it is.

I get being frustrated at people misunderstanding you, happens to everyone, just don’t stress over the imaginary Internet points.

It’s irrelevant to the overall point and comes across as a defense of Musk by attacking an irrelevant piece of semantics.

For example if people are arguing about pineapple on pizza and you say “pineapple is food so it’s ok on pizza” it’s not addressing the actual arguments being made.

Whatever you want to call it, it’s inherently dishonest to take credit for skills you don’t have and achievements you didn’t earn.

oh no, now they nkow I’m in the US North East, assuming I’m not using a VPN…

Man he really sucks at identifying his market. I would get it if it was targeted at amateurs stitching together video from a birthday party or something and looking for a song to go in the background.

Instead is he trying to sell to the population most able to tell that the output is garbage?

That’s why you should always check the reviews of any hacking organization before letting them hack you.

He did more labor for that 50k than someone like Musk did for their next 50k

But AI is so useful for laundering racism, sexism, and IP theft with plausible deniability.

It does sound borderline war crime, but then again the US buried thousands of Iraqi soldiers alive in the first gulf war, but our lawyers also did the mental gymnastics to justify it not being one beforehand so presumably they have some justification so its just barely legal. https://www.latimes.com/archives/la-xpm-1991-09-12-mn-2959-story.html

That being said, its not like Russia is being super careful about its rules of engagement.

Damn, even with inflation? You must be super on guard. That being said. I will turn on my A game to shave $0.50 off of a set of coasters from a tourist shop while on vacation.

Tbf, that’s a lot of what making a good AI image is as well, messing with prompts and parameters then finding something you like.

In terms of practical commercial uses, these highly human in the loop systems are about where it is and there are practical applications and products build off of it. I think what was sold though is a much more of either a replacement of people or a significant jump in functionality.

For example, there are products that will give you an AI summary of a structured or fairly uniform document like a generic press release, but there’s not really a good replacement for something to read backgrounds on 50 different companies and figure out which one you should invest in without a human basically doing all of that work themselves anyway just to check the work of the AI. The latter is what is being sold to make the enormous cost of hosting and training AI worth it.

This is awesome, and done by some really talented kids who are clearly smart motivated and willing to put in the work to get this project out the door.

Now imagine if the resources to do this kind of work as well as the background education and things like food security and economic stability were given to kids outside of an exclusive private boarding school? We’d empower some of the most imaginative of us to accomplish so many more amazing things.

The issue is AI is just too broad of a term. It’s also not a magic bullet and comes with its own problems so it’s not even the best tool for the job many times.

No, Google and Amazon were actually well run businesses with sensible business plans to meet needs in the market and did it well.

It’s easier said than done. A few key pieces took decades to figure out and even now many can only be produced by one or two companies, like ASML.
