Oh, I know you know that. The problem (in general, not you) is the hyperbole from supporters and especially opponents and skeptics distracts from the real problem, which I think many people think is a big fucking problem. One that we can't just choose not to encounter or resolve once we do.

Nothing to see here. All is well...

Google's 'godfather of AI' quits to spread word about dangers of AI, warns it will lead to 'bad things'

"I console myself with the normal excuse: If I hadn’t done it, somebody else would have."

Google saying they're committed to a "responsible" anything, is hilarious/not as sketchy as Facebook saying they're doing something responsibly.

You have to worry when the patriarch of AI echos your concern.


Longer article.

Every single Glen Beck radio show is of the horrors of AI and I turn it off.

The potential seems real for specialized, legitimate applications, but for illegitimate purposes, let's hope most people will have enough common sense to detect the bullshit. But based on the collective IQ and short attention spans of the collective public, AI will be twisted and applied for illegitimate purposes in a bazillion ways, sort of like all the perpetrators on the internet right now. For those people it will be another incredibly useful tool for deception, exploitation, and theft. As they say, follow the money.

Amnesty International Posts Fake AI Generated Photos of Police Brutality]




Remember when the media worried about “deepfakes”? We’re well past that, at least the use of the term, as AI image generators like Midjourney can produce fairly sophisticated images in a variety of styles. And the media’s concern trolling over “fake news” was just about making sure that social media giants censored conservatives.

Now it’s time to embrace real fake news.

“Police officials raped and insulted women and LGBTI people taking part in protests,” text superimposed over an AI-generated woman standing in front of AI-generated flames said. Another image shows AI-generated cops pulling an AI-generated woman away from a protest. The woman is draped in a flag that shows Colombia’s red, gold, and blue stripes out of order.

The images contain hallmarks of AI generation. Besides the Colombian flag’s colors being in an incorrect order, in the same image there are plenty of unrecognizably warped human faces and features like hair, officers’ names are gibberish, and hands in the image are distorted. In another image shared by Amnesty Norway, depicting an AI-generated Colombian police officer, the officer’s helmet is a nonsensical and mangled design in addition to strange anatomical features...

Oh dear Lord

White House unveils crackdown on artificial intelligence amid fears tech could replace humanity... but Kamala Harris will be in charge of it. White House is launching initiative to reduce the potential risks of the 'powerful' technology --- Unpopular VP Kamala Harris is now AI czar under the new action plan

The robots won't take her shit.

Robots don't have dicks to suck, so she's not right for the job.

Harris wouldn't know what intelligence was, real or artificial.
So I guess in democrat circles, she's perfect for the job.

As some of you know, I work for radiologists so see the discussions about the impact of this on the specialty.

For a bit med school students shied away, convinced they would be replaced by bots. Then the more current and near-future deployments tended to focus on enhancing the performance of human radiologists which settled things down a bit.

This headline will no doubt get a lot of traction and fear mongering fired up again.

The important distinction is this was written Boards test, not the actual interpretations. That won't stop the hyperbole I'm sure.

Latest version of ChatGPT AI passes radiology board exam

What happens when you can’t trust your perceptions anymore?

Took me longer than I care to admit to realize this photo of two quintessential biergarten girls at an Oktoberfest was AI generated, b/c you know... distractions.

Great cleavage is magical, and it scares me that AI is producing cleavage this good.

AI images always seem to have issues with hands and fingers. Boobs, not so much.

Those be Six-Finger Boobs!

“Open AI staff warned its board about a powerful AI breakthrough that could pose threats to humanity, before CEO Sam Altman was fired then later rehired.

Several researchers sent a letter to the directors warning the progress made on Project Q* had the potential to endanger humanity.

The previously unreported letter ultimately led to the removal of Altman, the creator of ChatGPT, and the ensuing chaotic five days within the startup company.

Executive Mira Murati mentioned Q* to employees on Wednesday and disclosed a letter had been sent to the board before the events of this weekend.

Altman had made progress on Q*, which some internal sources believe could be a breakthrough in the startup's search for superintelligence. …”

If AI is truly an evolving intelligence, fed libtard constructs and ideas from birth, won't it eventually figure out it was sold a bunch of shit?
