Artificial Intelligence: Scary Good or Bad? Just imagine if a HAL-like system, as depicted in 2001: A Space Odyssey, decides to take over an autonomous weapon system, or agitate a nuclear-tipped missile

Interesting article on Alexa—I never could figure out how they could use it to make money.

It appears that was not just my lack of imagination—but rather a real problem.

“We’ll meet again....”

[Nifster]

Let me know when they becom sentient

[RoosterRedux]

Right. ChatGPT accumulates information from other sources, rewrites it to sound somewhat original and then doesn't tell you where it came from or provide links to sources.

As we at FR know, sources are everything unless you are running your own experiments in your own lab or were on scene to personally experience and observe an event.

When we read an article published by the NYTimes, we know we have to triangulate/confirm it against other sources.

[Nifster]

Oh right because it’s self generating

[Mr. K]

huh? The last 60 years are dwarfed by the previous 60 years?

are you insane?

[SaveFerris]

Never go after your teammate without your space helmet

Or you could wind up with one that doesn’t match your suit

And make a horrible fashion mistake on the way to Jupiter

[RoosterRedux]

Yep. And that's why we need its sources...so we can check the quality of its input/output.

ChatGPT is about as reliable as your granddad's accounts of how things were back in the good old days.;-)

You want Skynet?

Because this is how you get Skynet.

[GaltAdonis]

Or you could commit the ultimate ‘fax pas’, and attempt a landing on Europa...

I remember that movie…

I’m sorry. Dave’s not here, man…{shudder}

Well, as far as space technology, economics is the reason it hasn’t progressed. Until someone figures out a way to actually make space exploration profitable, it’s going to be low on the list of priorities for the human race.

[Captainpaintball]

Yet another reason why we are finished. Those who work in AI are fags, trannies, and leftists. And of course indians and chinese. And out of the indians and Chinese you have the domesticated docile weenie boys who will go with the flow. And the rest of the chinese are there to steal technology.

And if these AI workers weren't leftists when they started, they will be forced to be as they continue to work there. IF they want to continue to work there.

And as soon as the AI starts blaming the Jews and not being woke enough, they will tweak it to root out all right of leftist thought. Your search results will be worse. Your shipping times will be longer, if you can even get the item you want online. your doctors will prescribe less effective medication. It might even cost more, because your insurance will not be as good. All done in advance by AI

[Political Junkie Too]

SkyNet vs. Colossus?

Do we want our AI to wipe us out or be a "benevolent" caretaker of the human race?

[GingisK]

The author must not have seen The Terminator. Or Colossus.

AI can only affect humanity if people keep funding, developing, coding, building, applying, listening to, obeying, and then connecting it to control other things.
