His mother chose poorly. Not just in a name either.

required air traffic controllers to order two commercial jetliners to perform "go-around maneuvers,"

At least they had more than one person doing everything this time.

Yes, she's never questioned the party leadership or directions. :rolls eyes:

She'd be better in party leadership and not pursue the Presidency (yet).

Tesla has and is doing exactly what Musk said the goal was for Tesla, long ago. To spur EV sales for other competitors, since Tesla could never meet a full market demand. Congrats Elon, you not only did that, you've backed away to give everyone a bigger share of the market. You genius.

Oh, what? You didn't mean to do this? Are those tears? Be a big boy and suck it up.

That's a bit of a reach. We should have stayed in the trees though, but the trees started disappearing and we had to change.

Lots of attacks on Gen Z here, some points valid about the education that they were given from the older generations (yet it's their fault somehow). Good thing none of the other generations are being fooled by AI marketing tactics, right?

The debate on consciousness is one we should be having, even if LLMs themselves aren't really there. If you're new to the discussion, look up AI safety and the alignment problem. Then realize that while people think it's about preparing for a true AGI with something akin to consciousness and the dangers that we could face, we have have alignment problems without an artificial intelligence. If we think a machine (or even a person) is doing things because of the same reasons we want them done, and they aren't but we can't tell that, that's an alignment problem. Everything's fine until they follow their goals and the goals suddenly line up differently than ours. And the dilemma is - there's not any good solutions.

But back to the topic. All this is not the fault of Gen Z. We built this world the way it is and raised them to be gullible and dependent on technology. Using them as a scapegoat (those dumb kids) is ignoring our own failures.

All companies will eventually try to become monopolies if they get large enough. It's the nature of capitalism, to do whatever it takes for the bottom line of profit and company growth. That's why regulations are a good thing, to put limits where a company alone will never do.

AI certainly can be a tool to combat it. Such things should have been hardcoded within these neural nets to have some type of watermarking way before it became a problem, but now as far as it's gone and in the open, it's a bit too late for that remedy.

But when tools are put out to detect what is and isn't AI, trust will develop in THOSE AI systems, and then they could be manipulated to claim actual real events aren't true. The real problem is that the humans in all of this from the beginning are losing their ability to critically examine and verify what they're being shown. I.e., people are gullible, always have been to a point, but are at the height now of believing anything they're told without question.

A company would look at this and determine not that LLMs might have something going on that would be bad for long term business. They would see the bigger net dollar amount and figure that they just had to calculate when to "reset" the LLM. It's just another IT problem where the solution isn't to address the problem but to find a workaround that reduces cost while continuing operations.

No one is surprised.
