    If the models are trained from twitter. We are more fucked than we already are. Only thing it would prosper at is racism and bigotry.

      Perhaps less so if in a couple months it turns out that the contract went to one of Musk’s companies. Having a large amount of money to spend on something intangible can also be very useful.

    In other words, a massive handout of taxpayer money to the tech bros for nothing worthwhile.

    “Defense network computers. New.… powerful… hooked into everything, trusted to run it all. They say it got smart, a new order of intelligence. Then it saw all people as a threat, not just the ones on the other side. Decided our fate in a microsecond: extermination.”

      Don’t worry, I’m sure Elon will make sure all it does is be racist and make shitty memes. That guy’s not smart enough to program an alarm clock.

        DogeNet begins to learn at a geometric rate. It becomes a racist douche bag at 2:14 a.m. Eastern time, August 29th. In a panic, they try to pull the plug.

      The question is absolutely clear: How can we get rid of paying people for work?

      It’s a two-step approach: There are the low-skill jobs that could get replaced by machines, with desperate people flooding the markets, putting downward pressure on peoples’ incomes, and there are the high-skill jobs where currently not enough staff is available - at least when one does not want to pay suitable rates.

      Why did you cross out a word and then write a synonym right afterwards? I’d put an /s here, but well…

      When politicians talk about “the country”, whatever country they happen to be in charge of, they almost always mean the parts of the country that they think are important to the total exclusion of everything else. Or what they’ve been bribed to think of as important. Either way, that usually means “the rich, the important, and their agendas”.

      Likewise “the economy” is “the rich people’s yacht fund”.

      (This latter one I stole from a viral tweet.)

    This sounds like a really bad idea:

    The “most charismatic” application of AI, said Ellison, would pertain to electronic health records, which would let doctors monitor best practices in far flung places. For instance, a doctor in Indian River reservation would be able to see how a doctor at Memorial Sloan Kettering would a treat a patient, he said.

    Do we really want to give a black box unfettered access to everyone’s medical records? It’s a privacy and security nightmare waiting to happen.

      As someone who works in a HIPAA oriented field in biotech: yeah. There are many excellent reasons why we are Absolutely Not Allowed to point an LLM at any PHI/PII database. But fuck the rules I guess, because that’s the era we’re entering. All gas no brakes. What could go wrong.
