How dystopian, you mean. Companies will try to replace as many jobs as possible with AI, meaning everything gets considerably worse in quality and reliability, and there won't be any new jobs to replace the old ones, leading to drastic unemployment everywhere. The only ones they won't be able to replace are the jobs that actively destroy your body from doing them. Every mainstream social media will be flooded with shitty AIs pretending to be human, so people don't form any real connections and are easier to manipulate via tweaking their AI "friends" a bit. Any government that doesn't pass Anti-AI laws will find their bureaucracy jammed by a glut of AI generated proposals. Legal trials will become a sham as any evidence you need can just be generated, no need for the truth. Our current actors will be turned into AI versions, and then every movie created by that company forevermore will use only those AIs because it's cheaper. The education system is already being completely circumvented by people generating answers to their work, so they don't learn anything. Neither humans nor AIs are ready for how hard they're trying to shove this stuff into everything.
That's exactly how capitalism works. AI is cheaper than hiring people, and any company that doesn't take any and every opportunity to increase profits is failing at capitalism.
So you don't know how much people don't care.
Sure, they'll exist. Just like how parts for old rifles are technically still being made today. But most people will never see one, nor do they care to see one. Most people don't care about the quality of films, hence the success of a lot of the Marvel films despite rapid decreases in quality, or the Star Wars sequels. I shouldn't need to explain why most people only seeing the shitty AI slop films is a bad thing.
Fucking hell. I... really gave you too much credit, huh? "Who cares that the only films average people will see are AI trash?" Like, if you don't get the problem here, I really don't think I can explain it.
Dear lord. No day without more AI hype. I really need to get a link where all the horrors of ai are summarized so I can post it with low effort as it is to hype it.
You could always ask AI to generate a list and create a link for you.
There is a meme in here but I'm too tired to find it right now.
How is a complaint about script quality somehow disproven by Veo 3, a video generation AI?
Did you ask an AI to come up with a reply?
That's a fair point in general, and a good reminder.
But a person using AI is telling me they don't value their own mind to the point they rather outsource it to a dumb prediction machine, so why exactly am I supposed to entertain their commentary?
The current models depend on massive investment into server farms. They aren't generating profit, and probably can't. When the companies involved realize it's not going to happen, they'll pull it all. That will generate a new AI winter, and in 20 or 30 years, maybe the pieces will be picked up and the field will go through another summer cycle. This sort of boom/bust cycle has happened before in AI.
And no, self-hosted models aren't going to make up for it. They aren't as powerful, and more importantly, they will never be able to drive mass market adaptation.
Deepseek is not the huge leap it appears. It's better, but not at all what was initially claimed.
Nor is smartphone AI going to do the things people what AI to do. It won't let the CEO take your job.
Perhaps because you didn't understand what they said.
It's why companies are dumping billions into it.
If the models were actually getting substantially more efficient, we wouldn't be talking about bringing new nuclear reactors online just to run it.
Yes, and it says exactly what I claimed. DeepSeek is an improvement, but not to the level initially reported. Not even close.
What a colossally stupid thing to say. We're not looking at starting up new nuclear reactors to run YouTube.
