Maybe the kids are gonna be alright, after all.
AI is just one of several serious existential threats the kids will have to deal with. They’re far from alright.
“The kids are alright” does not mean that the world where the kids live is alright, it means that the kids are alright. 😅
The Epstein class is their biggest threat by far. AI and what they do on private islands are just two of many reasons to get rid of billionaires.
I agree. I really don’t understand why society tolerates, let alone promotes and idolizes, billionaires, while median net worth remains below $200,000, and probably much lower in most of the rest of the world. I don’t think everyone should be forced to be exactly equal but the current disparity between median and Elon is more than 6 orders of magnitude, depending on the day of the week, and even to your average barely a billionaire it is more than 3 orders of magnitude. It’s excessive, and looking at how society is going, fairly clearly unhealthy for everyone involved.
true but kids should also trust AI to be AI
then it becomes a useful tool
never useful, always negative value
I mean, the marketing people should have been able to tell management that too.
I’m so blackpilled on the average person. These stats mean nothing because the average person not trusting a tech company does absolutely nothing to push them away from it. 80% distrust AI but 50% use it and the stat is growing.
Nah, why would anyone love AI when we can just–
Let’s all love Lain!
Present day, present time… Hahaha
You shouldn’t trust billionaires at all. Even the “good ones”. You don’t get a billion <insert currency here> net worth without exploiting people

I don’t trust anyone who is impressed by LLMs enough to consider them to be in any way adjacent to intelligence.
How do you define intelligence? If LLMs are not intelligent NO other animal could ever be considered intelligent and many humans in the lower percentiles too. And that percentile is only going up.
For starters, an LLM wouldn’t even survive in the body of a small insect. They’re incompetent at everything.
Prove me wrong. Make an LLM-powered insect that buys more LLM-powered insects. Have it demonstrate any fitness at all.
If you train an AI to do it, I am sure it would completely destroy nature. It would find “bugs” like getting on an aircraft to reach new areas, teamwork to destroy any enemy etc.
I’m sure it wouldn’t. Prove it, you’re wrong. Existing bugs already do that stuff better. And “if you train it” is doing a lot of heavy lifting, since actual bugs can handle novel situations.
Have you never wondered how some animal would completely take over if it was just a bit smarter? Example: A single fox can kill dozens of chicken. Imagine the chicken working together and attacking it, picking out the eyes etc. instead of literally not defending at all.
Or a herd of cow or whatever herd animal that could easily team up and trample/stomp/crush/… a predator but instead they all just run away and the slowest is dead.
Smarter is expensive! The brain will use more calories and cost more. LLMs are drastically less energy-efficient than natural brains. We’re one of the few cases where spending more on compute was worth it.
You’re describing eusociality, not intelligence. One might argue that ants have completely taken over, but they aren’t necessarily smarter than solitary wasps. LLMs only exist because of a huge economy behind them, and it remains to be seen how widespread they’ll be once they’re expected to generate a profit.
So it is only a matter of time before compute is cheap/small enough and AI optimized enough before I would be right? Or we just use larger animals like elephants?
Its me! I am young again!
Nice. What do you think about AI?
As an old person I can also say that old people don’t trust AI, or the leaders of those companies, or the current administration…
Old people were the biggest voter block FOR the current (US) administration. You might not like it, but “old people” certainly have some other opinions.
In reviewing your message, it seems like you’ve been faced with some difficulties because of AI. But as young people, I believe AI is the future of humans. We should develop and improve AI in various types of parts, even though the current result is not as good as we expected initially.
theyre not the ones being billed for it; dont worry what they think. ai spending is in enterprise situations. mostly coding/tech companies and finance companies, and well lots of companies. the big payers though are coders and finance. there isnt really anything to not trust. it codes and answers questions and picks stocks. nobody’s hooked it up to skynet. nobody’s built skynet. the billionaires borrowed more money than they can afford unless their ai models win long term. i think theyre in a semi-humbled moment.
They’re already dumber than the older generations, but hey, we can make the problem even worse. Why not.
I’m gonna have to work until I’m 110 years old probably just to keep the following generations fed and clothed… and I bet at least one of you morons will think “it’s the billionaires’ fault”. Try to actually read a real book.
and I bet at least one of you morons will think “it’s the billionaires’ fault”.
Well, yeah, you’re kinda right. It’s the system that creates these billionaires fault. One of the reasons I dislike all the guillotine memery a bit (although I find it pretty funny) is because just unaliving Jeff Bezos and Elon Musk won’t help in the long run. The system is gonna continue to produce these kind of psychopaths.
