    AI/Automation Megathread

    Nothing to do with hubris, just honest limits of human leadership. Again, running out of cross-trained experts before the management is convinced, it's the outright inability to verify usefulness inside the current paradigm before shit hits the fan. An earnest skeptic in the management genuinely...

    Exactly, the managerial class's purpose is "know enough to set goals for the people who know the fine details", a system that is profoundly unsuited to figuring out a replacement for said fine-detail people in ways that current machine learning systems are uniquely suited to hammer...

    IIRC, they were *THASF* over on SB, tried out a minimum-rules spinoff forum of their own with DigitalWildWest that had a part of it where literally everyone had moderator powers, got a subforum ban over this stuff, then snapped from a KiwiFarms dox that was almost entirely on themselves which...

    "Steam-powered personal vehicles never would have worked" =/= "steam engines would never work". "Hard limits on blunt transistor packing" =/= "hard limits on all AI". "This way of doing it cannot do thing" =/= "thing cannot be done". You have consistently argued against statements that I...

    That you cannot see these are just rephrasing the same complaint of it being shit due to instability is a pretty clear demonstration that you never understood the position I have in the first place. Because it's specifically that due to being giant fuzzy blobs of brute-force inferences and...

    Still seeing the utterly unacceptable writhing of all fine detail, still seeing the incomprehensible warping of perspective, still seeing the abundance of distorted vague impressions of what the thing should be, and the proportions are also fucked. It is slightly less noisy, but it still...

    Would you call the AI-generated Seinfield or Bad Man music video or the Gap clip remotely acceptable for a commercial product? Because that's the bar for what it was in response to, that all creativity will go to a few cloud server owners, and that the entire fanwork pipeline will become...

    At what point did I say it was impossible for them to do the general kind of thing, rather than stating they're not useful for it because of how difficult it is to get a good result? No, we've changed the layouts a lot, but the underlying physics simply do not allow for transistor size to go...

    The post being linked demonstrates incredible difficulty with stability for static scenes, with the shift having nearly total change of the "planets" arriving between frames, with a total of thirty seconds shown. Same problem crops up in Disturbed's Bad Man video, and every other AI animation...

    The reliability problems they have make this extremely suspect, even the spectacular amount of work with self-driving cars shits itself with absurdities like "text of a thing equals the thing". Hence them using it only to parse the surroundings to feed to conventional automation with a variety...

    To extend your own comparison, the internal combustion engine has not been invented yet, and you're the one promising wonders that boiler power proved incapable of. Not anymore, we're running out of atoms to shave and the data logistics just don't pan out with the road left in the current...

    The point is that the AI are utterly incapable of the continuity required, because as it turns out that bloats the resource demands of the model to the point that Google couldn't run it for anything useful. Their failure to grasp that the system cannot simply be shrunk on-demand does not tell...

    Between the bullshit shoveled into K-12 in the interests of absolutely everyone getting a highschool education, the bullshit shoveled into colleges for political reasons, and the bullshit shoveled into the medical schools to navigate regulatory accretion, we could in fact have well-functioning...

    The key difference that comparison constantly misses is that the economy is not for horses, it's for humans. And thus if you put any significant fraction of the humans out of work, you've stripped much of the economy of income, and shortly thereafter the affected portions implode under the...

    AI/Automation Megathread

    Factory workers are being expected to learn more of how their machines work to perform basic maintenance because the time delay for a specialist is too much, scientists are being expected to learn how to program so the code is made with a solid understanding of what it's for, AI researchers...

    The way the technology works is too shallow for that. The reason why AI text generation works decently across scripts is because that's measured in kilobytes with a very well-defined finite set of output elements. A 50-page comic issue has enormous interdependency of dozens to hundreds of...

    The problem is that Y is already-scarce and geopolitically sensitive stuff that's heavily related to meeting far more basic automation requirements and is one of the least important parts of X. Namely computation hardware. "First-world quality of life" is "Everyone can have a smartphone and a...

    Issue is that you need similar energy to be having robo-cops patrolling the streets, and it holds exactly true for basic resource transportation. There's only so much energy that can be saved by removing people when you're using ludicrous amounts of robotics as Aaron Fox suggests. To say nothing...

    Ideologues cannot sustain a police state, because they'll be far too busy purity-spiraling to keep popular revolts from fucking up infrastructure. No matter how far you extrapolate current technology, there's no avoiding the fact one madman with an axe and a map of power plants can seriously...

    AI/Automation Megathread

    All current automation is rote repetition of actions, database handling, or positional prediction. These get very incredibly complex, yes, but that complexity is wrangling the input data to something the machine can make sense of. Maintenance requires adaptive, very active, problem solving...
