Just look at who's in charge of the Senate, and ask yourself if they are to be trusted to do anything but lie, steal and carry out witch hunts.

As for LLMs, unless driving contact-centre customer satisfaction scores even further through the floor counts as an achievement, so far, all there's been has been a vast volume of hype and wasted energy, and very little to show for it, except for some highly constrained point solutions which aren't significant enough to make economic impact. Even then, the ROI is questionable.

So they want to keep them terrified of losing their shitty, barely functioning status quo.

The reality is that these are the numbers the Republicans want , because it's the numbers their billionaire owners want. ChatGPT is just accidentally letting us know how they've poisoned the models.

Stop calling LLM AI. It creates false expectations.

Yes but got forbid those jobs be stolen by another country. Can’t have that.

I.e., made up on the spot.

LOLLLLLLLL that’s like a third of the US population. Probably half of the number currently employed. There’s no way in hell this useless garbage will take 1/3 to 1/2 of all jobs. Companies that do this will go out of business fast.

Well my AI says it will take 96 or 98 million jobs, depending on what you want it say and only for $5,000.

I think the fad will die down a bit, when companies figure out that AI will be more likely than humans to make very expensive mistakes that the company has to compensate, and saying it was the AI is not a valid cop out.
I foresee companies will go bankrupt on that account.

It doesn't help to save $100k on cutting away an employee, if the AI causes damages for 10 or 100 times that amount.

This is how AI will take over... not through wars or competence, but by being better at bureaucratic forgeries...

Edit: well, I guess the apple never falls far from the tree, as it were! Wa-hey! We wanted to create the ultimate worker, but we've managed to create the ultimate politician instead=))

And over the next 50 years it will take 485 million jobs, and the unemployment rate will be 235%.

Thus demonstrating the crux of the issue.

I was just looking for a name of a historical figure associated with the Declaration of Independence but not involved in the writing of it. Elizabeth Powel. Once I knew the name, I went through the ai to see how fast they’d get it. Duck.ai confidently gave me 9 different names, including people who were born on 1776 or soon thereafter and could not have been historically involved in any of it. I even said not married to any of the writers and kept getting Abagail Adams and the journalist, Goddard. It was continually distracted by “prominent woman” and would give Elizabeth Cady Stanton instead. Twice.

Finally, I gave the ai a portrait. It took the ai three tries to get the name from the portrait, and the portrait is the most used one under the images tab.

It was very sad. I strongly encourage everyone to test the ai. Easy to grab wikis that would be top of the search anyway are making the ai look good.

If you have a job that you can be confidently wrong without any self awareness after the fact, then yeah I guess.

But I can’t think of many jobs like that except something that is mostly just politics.

funny... i expected IT workers to be in that list but we're not. AI couldn't do my job but it could be my boss and that frightens me.

The Senate will decide its fate.

Knowing the way our country is going I would expect in the end workers will have to pay an AI tax on their income and most workers will start working 50 hours a week.
