falsehoods youtubers believe about "AI"

@SnoopJ Ayup.
We could still probably have some utility on specialized models for, say, disease detection, if the output were strictly used as a "please check this again" mechanism rather than "check more faster go go go go go, also we fired all the techs". Not really the world we live in though.
@cthos yea, it's become quite unfashionable to solve a problem and merely make an extemely high profit margin on selling the solution.

@SnoopJ Does the protein folding one count as not a good use case?
@OliviaVespera it is a good use of machine learning
the discussion is about generative AI like Large Language Models (LLM) or audio, image and video generators that are trained on copyrighted material

"But SnoopJ have you considered just not watching trash"
I mean, I *have* considered it
@SnoopJ but then what would you have to toot about on sunday nights!?

@_NetNomad an excellent point!

@OliviaVespera perhaps more importantly: the potential harms are much smaller than the "machine that diagnoses you" stuff, which is basically *made* out of harm.
@SnoopJ I agree, I wanted to be sure in case there is something I've missed. I've touted along with veritasium that this was probably the only genuinely goodd thing that generative AI has done. Not only to discover the shape of all proteins known to us, but to use that knowledge to generate new never before seen proteins.

@OliviaVespera the "generate new stuff" thing I have a lot more skepticism for
especially after google's stunt with GNoME which turned out to basically be a sort of advanced academic spamming of the materials community

hearing gullible 20-somethings say "this technology DOES have good use-cases, like in medicine for example…"
is going to turn me into the fucking Joker

@davidak @OliviaVespera @SnoopJ
Does anyone know of a good list that differentiates between the multiple types of "AI" technologies? LLM vs. MoE vs. …?
That would be helpful in such discussions... -

@SnoopJ istg if I ever hear someone actually use the word "interlock" in reference to a LLM 🔪
