BOOM! 💥
That makes it look like AI was striving for functionality. But they are bullshit machines
Spoken like someone who hasn’t used them. They can be wrong and require care and thought when being used but calling them “bullshit machines” is just lazy and inaccurate.
There are genuinely good use cases for them, just not what the hype machine has been driving
This.
Using Machine Learning to make more reliable cancer diagnosis tools? Based and GOATed.
Using LLM’s to replace your customer service department? Deserving of a high five, in the face, with a rake.
Agreed on the customer service department but I don’t mind them replacing automated phone systems and making those painful experiences better. They’re not replacing any jobs in that case.
Apparently generating healthy recipes is “corporate bullshit”.
Or maybe buzzwords are the only thing people care about here.
Yeah the corporate bs has really hampered any practical use of these algorithms.
Totally false - maybe in some respects, but saying there’s “no practical use” is indefensible.
Depends on what. LLMs, sure, but AI models, called neural networks before, have been in use in a lot of physics simulations for a long time. At its base, it’s a huge number cruncher. How you crunch the numbers makes rhe difference.
Indeed, I meant mostly LLMs, but also image generating AIs. I don’t know of they have much in common in the way they work, but what is commonly described as generative AI. They are responsible for A) the hype and B) the horrible bullshit, mayhem and destruction being visited on the world ever since their spread.
They are bullshit. I agree with you
