Makes no sense to see TV as a medium for communication.

Instead they are hell bent on criticizing and tearing down anyone that does, especially when their finance bros are invested in the legacy competition.

The thing people fail to appreciate about media empires is there is no ad/not-ad distinction: it is all an ad, either for other products or for more of the same media.

And it will be true because the only way to defeat these people is actually being an asshole.

One of the major cultural problems in open source software is it got dominated by people doing it purely for self promotion. Then it becomes an interview question, then all the incentives are warped on the promise of “get PRs merged, get paid big money”.

But yes, you are right.

If you can make breakthroughs on such areas as fluid dynamics, control theory or information theory with AI then that absolutely is a big deal with real technological implications.

The fact is these fields are supported by society because of the benefits to everyone else. Once the same results can be achieved in a cheaper and faster way that is what will be done. We should mourn this in the same way we do buggy whip manufacturers. Again people still ride horses.

Is it reasonable for any field to make such demands? If this were doctors objecting to AI becoming good at medical practice would you have the same concerns?

While any idea of OpenAI spying on people to pursue their goals is disgusting, the rest of this is par for the course, as Kasparov experienced with IBM in the 90s. Humans still play chess after all.

Where? Straw manning, again.

Don’t feed the troll.

You are entirely capable of checking what I wrote but insist on trying to drag this out with straw men and misinterpretations.

Of course people like you have a problem with AI since it will help everyone else move on and ignore you.

But you are very angry about it.

Being able to avoid people like you is the entire selling point. No wonder it annoys you.

Not what was claimed.

Quite literally the subject of the article.

The flip side is the people with the biggest problems with AI are those that survive by imposing themselves on others in unnecessary ways, which is why so many bureaucrats are so enthused about regulating it.
