oh of course it’s all just shitty digital paintings

what the actual fuck

thats not what architect means at all

…the data supports this, go look at how many surgeries have been performed using robotic assistance and telepresence devices

Uh no? The Davinci surgery robot is absolutely well funded and in hospitals everywhere. This humanoid robotics fake AI stuff is stupid but it is not at the expense of robotic surgery.

Also, as someone who used to work in mobile infrastructure (designing, building, releasing apps), it doesn’t seem like it’d be hard for foreign state actors and companies to identify the accounts of people who work in the White House and manipulate their feeds in particular with a lil A/B testing

I matched with him on Raya once

Also his feeds would show him more of what he engages with, so maybe he watches a lot of masculine women and feminine men on Instagram reels

Completely agree, and will try to make that more prominent when talking about AI on here

Do you feel that it’s good to be able to connect with people on the internet?

This is like saying a table saw isn’t useful to you or you cut your finger off because you don’t know how to use it/the tool doesn’t fit your workflow. Have some damn curiosity holy shit.

Define AGI

That’s still in capitalist framing though. We need to change who owns these tools and who benefits from them, not try to wish or moralize them out of existence. Most software engineering jobs are stupid because they are building stupid things! I guess I just think we should think bigger.

I certainly think AGI is stupid and any attempt to invent Machine God should be treated as dangerous/dumb and laughed out of the room along with humanoid robotics (aspiring slave masters) and AI image/video generation (waste of resources, like designing by slot machine)

If that’s the depth of what you thinking building alongside an LLM is, copying text and generating pictures, then yes, you should stay in your existing workflow because it sounds like it’s working for you! It’s just a tool, and all this moralizing misses the bigger issue: who should own this system?
