It was even worse than this. IBM also helped figure out how many Jews needed to be hauled away in trains. They used their computing power to determine how many Jews needed to be killed to clear out the ghettos based on population and ability to kill them. They helped plan the logistics for the Holocaust.

So it wasn’t sarcasm then?

Yeah, the people in charge are gobsmackingly stupid.

You would fire any employee for this level of incompetence. For some strange reason meritocracy doesn’t exist at the leadership level anymore when that is the most important place for it.

Every company still investing in AI knowing their is no return should be broken up and disbanded at this point for gross financial negligence.

Translation: Fortnite is carrying our whole ass company now and Daddy needs a new Benz.

Yeah, corporations don’t even have to do the dirty work as people will happily parrot the bullshit they say for free. A great example on Lemmy of this is Proton. For some reason it really brings the bootlickers out to defend it.

It sucks and will only get worse as time progresses. Lemmy is very anti-woman, pro gun, and pro violence.

It does have less capitalistic bootlicking bastards, but only slightly less.

It is worse.

No because they have a license to use the music already. They are seeking the equivalent of performance rights from Steam. They are extortionists.

This is our new future, the face of a mass murderer, the face of indifference.

Naw, completely disagree. If you had a calculator you knew was defective you would ban doctors and lawyers from using it.

You also seem to think that LLM is going to be inherently more accurate than a expert human. We can see with GrokAI how easy it is to manipulate an AI into saying racist white nationalist garbage. So we are not just trusting the technology but also a layer of unpredictable corporate meddling.

Why does the LLM recommend this drug but not the other one? We quickly see how a corporation could favor a certain medication due to behind the scene deals or even push a medication.

You can’t trust a black box you are not allowed to look into. Trust in a LLM at this point is pure folly.

I will watch the video later. Thanks for linking it.

Interesting. I read an article about it.

I mean to me this reeks of some pretty extreme fascism. Without a genuine mechanism to challenge the system and considering how the government can and will place you on a black list for not towing the party line it is about as dystopian as you get.

Fascism up in your daily business claiming to produce better metrics according to them is not something I could agree to.

I already hate the existing US credit scoring system and the numerous catch 22’s it has. While bringing this system under the regulation of government and allowing redressability sounds promising, I don’t think this is really what China is providing.

The worst part is once the batteries run out you have to replace the car. Who can afford a new car every 650 miles!?

That makes sense.

How can you not feel it driving? That is kind of scary that you are that absent minded while driving.

Jokes on them, those tire pressure sensors are the first thing I don’t replace. I just visually check my tires and put a pressure gauge on them if they look suspect.

It started way back in the days of cable. I remember how jarring it was to see a music video on MTV that kept changing camera shots. I was like, “you don’t even get enough time to get a good look at the band or the scene.” Then it got worse, way worse.

They have been programming people for short attention spans forever now and I hate it.

By the time you launched and assembled one in orbit their hardware would already be outdated. Sounds like a great plan!

Solar roadways are the future! Driving on solar panels is the only way forward. Until all our roads are solar we will never be free people.

You had me until you mentioned manufacturing consent. Not that the concept isn’t real, just the revelation that the person who coined it was likely a pedophile enabler and involved in a vast criminal conspiracy.
