I have been in IT for 20 years, have both a BS and MS in Information Technology, and I will never understand why EVERYONE has such a hard-on for AI; especially given its track record of “hallucinations”.
I don’t doubt that you’re good with technology but, I’ve met MANY people in the information technology field, even with their MS, who were fucking idiots and barely knew shit about technology outside what they needed to know for their specific job.
I’ve never seen an IT project where the majority of people on it had an ad blocker installed.
I definitely overestimated how tech savvy IT workers were before I started working with them.
Man hallucinates for hours each night 🧠🎟️💫
Robot hallucinates one time… 💦 🤖 ☠️
This is why we don’t perform important tasks while sleeping 🤷
Aren’t a lot of religions based on hallucinations that specific people have had?
Goddamnit. Take my effing upvote.
Much of the craze is almost religious. You have for example Singularitarianism. Basically “Man creates AI, which will create artificial general intelligence, which will create artificial super intelligence, which will bring us the singularity, release us from drudgery and give us eternal life.”
You have been in IT for 20 years and don’t understand this? Has your career not made it abundantly clear that the average person is completely computer illiterate and has no idea what AI even is? How many people have you had to assist in 20 years who insist that they have tried every possible solution, only to find out that something isn’t even plugged in or turned on?
And that high level management drives decisions about what technologies to adopt, when they know nothing about it.
Some sales guy on the golf course told them about it.
I made a mistake in my comment; I failed to clarify that I was referring to the IT industry and not your every day layman. For example, I work under two levels below our CIO/Vice Chancellor (i.e. second in command from the Chancellor/President) of a university, and despite all of the evidence available to them, they still wish to shove AI down our throats.
I will also be interviewing with an IT company next week who prides themselves on “everyone at every level being engineers” who espouse AI coding as the next level for their internal frameworks.
These are the people who are supposed to know better.
Well obviously that’s wrong, everyone who took catholic theology studies in college knows it should either be monster or white claw /j
Busch Light is an acceptable substitute
More consequences than if it had raped some kids.
To be fair if you make an AI and ask it to be an authentic catholic priest you’d essentially have to reward it for such actions because it understood the assignment. Now why you’d make such an abomination in the first place that I don’t know. The ways of the lord and all that…
Turns out “the ways of the lord” = capitalism. That’s probably why he condemned his socialist son to torture and crucifixion; for the crime of empathy! God was like “Helping the poor? Absolutely fucking not!”.
The history of all Religions is as a control mechanism used to make people self police in the absence of a formal law enforcement system.
So that’s why heinous deeds that don’t threaten the power structure get a pass.
