The Humorous Reality of Using Advanced AI for Mundane Tasks
This social media post highlights the contrast between the advanced capabilities of modern artificial intelligence and how people actually use it in their daily lives. While AI models are capable of complex tasks like solving decades-old mathematical problems or performing autonomous cyber operations, many users simply turn to these powerful tools for trivial, everyday questions. The post features a tweet by Kevin Roose that juxtaposes the grand, "godlike" potential of superintelligence with the relatable, mundane query of checking the shelf life of peanut butter in the refrigerator, poking fun at the gap between high-tech hype and practical human application.
AI hasn't been created yet, LLMs have, a machine learning process. True AI is intended to be sentient, and might be shown to be cognitively ontological with a Turing test. Current "A.I." is a misnomer branded by marketing teams who realised a token catchphrase, while technically
TBH any question or prayer to a "godlike intelligence" must sound like that. "Godlike" implies that any problem including world peace or meaning of life is infinitely small in comparison.
AI is a good tool, but it can never replace human labour. It is way to expensive in utility costs. The sheer volume of water and electricity needed is ridiculous
I see a lot of people butt-hurt in the comments speaking as if we talking about 2022 LLMs with 6 finger slops. Now with MoE models they don't even have to do training full models from scratch every time. GrokBot is like interacting with a real teamof better than average employees
I am pretty convinced There is no way to keep this growth going And the only reason the public Is allowed to use AI Is because they need someone To train the machine Like people in India Sweatshops Wearing cameras so the machine can learn And eventually replace them Kind of dysto
Godlike super intelligence:
A"""I""" is a predicting machine. A nice tool, handy tool, but price-value ratio it's a freakin' nightmare which also cannot develop, i.e. grow beyond a certain level (math proofs...), only look a little more sophisticated at the cost of a smaller village's annual consumption of
These AI nerds like to lie for no reason. No, AI didnt "solve" a 87 year old math problem, it brute forced a counter example for something thought to be true, cause it was asked to do so.
I use it as a replacement for search engines, since search engines have become incredibly shitty and you can't find anything except when you know precisely where to find it. Which completely defeats the purpose of a search engine.
godlike superintelligence. where
