What are platforms going to do about it? Start to demonetize AI generated videos and ban AI written fan fiction?

Are AI models then going to train on the content they themselves created? What is the impact of that?

It leads to model collapse. The second AI starts to focuses on certain patterns in the output of the first AI instead of the actual content and you get degraded output. They are pattern matching machines after all. Repeat the cycle a few times and all output becomes gibberish. Think of it as data incest.

So the AI companies are pretty desperate for more fresh user data. More data is the only way they have currently to push through the diminishing returns.

Yeah. The one that say the government should not interfere with companies except when another company inconveniences him.

Vance doesn’t know that

Insult Musk on Twitter, wait until posts are censored, sue X for not having freedom of speech. How’s that for American values?

Robocop tube begins playing. OCP starts construction of Delta City.

Engineers: we can’t make transistors smaller because they wouldn’t work because of those quantum effects

Different engineers: but what if we use quantum effects as the basis to make smaller transistors work

Technically a checkers program is also AI if you check the dictionary definition. Many will say it’s not “real AI” as it doesn’t have general intelligence but it’s still AI. Snake oil salesmen love that.

Unpopular opinion: too big budget gives a bad movie. Lower budgets forces people to be more creative and keeps the suits away that would otherwise make it a designs by committee.

An order of magnitude better would give trust. Slightly better doesn´t convince people.

And then the car mistook the side of a white semi for the sky and plowed full speed into the semi, decapitating the driver. These systems see, but don’t really understand what they see.

It’s more about good writing. It’s often said you’re allowed to have one cheat. You have to be consistent about it and the rest of the rules of the universe still apply. But often enough in fiction the writers start breaking any rule or law of physics when the plot requires it instead of fixing the plot to follow consistent world building. It’s lazy writing and bad for immersion. A lot of the tension in a story is from the characters overcoming limitations, not having limitations disappear whenever convenient.

It never actually worked. He never got further than spewing radiation.

So many.

Normal people get slammed into a wall by monster, explosion or whatever, stand up and walk away. Buddy, you don’t walk that off. People die or need months of recovery from less.

Don’t get me started on the speed force. You do some napkin math and see the Flash is taking on a 1000G running in circles close to mach 2 without blinking and then gets knocked unconscious with a single punch in the next scene. Flash is not the only one of course.

And the lone inventor developing a fully conscious AI in some mountain cabin on an old laptop. It was clear that would never work and reality now shown us AI companies looking into nuclear powered data centers to speed up things.

You don’t want to live on Mars when Musk is in charge of the oxygen you breath.

It’s the modern version of sacrificing people in a volcano to appease the gods.

“Fuck it, might as well keep doing what I’m doing.”

And that last group is going to be angry when they can’t keep doing their stuff when insurance rates go insane so they can’t buy houses or cars, or when food prices keep going up even faster than they are now.

Dithering, it’s a lost art. It always reminds me of Monkey Island.
