Reporters suing AI for plagiarism?
Oh the irony.
More like Just desserts.Quote:

As amusing and potentially interesting as that might be it just seems, well, wrong. Then again, may as well get used to that sort of thing.

^Useful idiot for MS right now, they need someone on the board as a hype man that is not an engineer.
This blew my mind. I made a gif out of the image below (daughter's homework) and attached it to a new GPT 4 chat and it created a new program in python to solve the problem.

Here's the code it created
from scipy.optimize import linprog
# Coefficients for the objective function (total weekly cost)
labor_cost_per_hour = 12.50
costs = {
'Plant1': 20 * labor_cost_per_hour + 50,
'Plant2': 16 * labor_cost_per_hour + 80,
'Plant3': 10 * labor_cost_per_hour + 100
}
c = [costs['Plant1'], costs['Plant2'], costs['Plant3']]
# Coefficients for the inequality constraints
A = [
[20, 16, 10], # Labor hours constraint
[5, 8, 7], # Raw material constraint
[-1, -1, -1] # At least 1400 motorcycles constraint (negative for >=)
]
b = [
525 * 40, # Total labor hours available
9400, # Total raw material available
-1400 # At least 1400 motorcycles (negative for >=)
]
# Coefficients for the bounds of each x_i
x0_bounds = (0, 750) # Plant 1
x1_bounds = (0, 750) # Plant 2
x2_bounds = (0, 750) # Plant 3
bounds = [x0_bounds, x1_bounds, x2_bounds]
# Solve the linear programming problem
result = linprog(c, A_ub=A, b_ub=b, bounds=bounds, method='highs')
# Check if the optimization was successful
if result.success:
# The number of motorcycles to produce at each plant
motorcycles_to_produce = result.x
# Total weekly cost
total_weekly_cost = result.fun
(motorcycles_to_produce, total_weekly_cost, result.message)
else:
(None, None, result.message)
I should start looking for a new job.
Yet another reason why I'm so glad I don't actually need a job any more.

Fuck the coding. Although it is nice.
I’m stunned that gif can be scanned interpreted and solved, with response in good engrish and then solved in python.
The crazy thing about the coding are the notes. AI doesn’t need that. But it’s proper coding for a human.
man this is improving at an insane rate. what the hell do you do to distinguish disinfo and reality. it's literally impossible

It'll be interesting to see how the social media companies handle this, especially for the upcoming elections. At some point, a large majority of what people see in their "news feed" is going to be totally fake and literally unbelievable.
At some point?Quote:

Yeah, but it will never be able to clean toilets! Checkmate, AI!
The most ridiculous part of all this is the widespread readiness to accept AI companies will put meaningful guardrails in place.
Cheer up people. We'll always need humans to run to HD when the box fan breaks and the computers go down.
"Remember, this is the worst this technology will ever be."
Hang on to your seats, folks.
Think they'll take us along when the Singularity hits?
Listen to the Joe Rogan podcast with Tristan Harris (of the Social Dilemma), and you'll have absolutely no faith in those companies doing anything right or just for humanity since it all depends on their bottom line. They don't give a fuck.Quote:

I haven't been following this thread so forgive me if this is old news, but piece on the news this afternoon about how AI uses more electricity than crypto, plus a shit ton of water, and it's just getting started. Given that energy is a zero sum game and in the west water is as well--the question is, what will we be willing to give up for AI. That strikes me as a more serious problem than deep fakes and bots taking over the world.
100%. Government regulation is urgently needed.Quote:

The only thing that going to be trustworthy is direct experience (or - maybe -words on paper), it will short circuit a lot of the "progress" in communications and media that's happened in the last 50 or more years. I'm all for that aspect of it.Quote:

It could go the other way if enough people find the fake content *more* compelling than real content, which I think is entirely plausible.
Holy shiteQuote:

Check out AI Trump talks about his E.D. on YouTube. The beauty is that if he publicly complains it will just cause milions of more people to see it.Quote:
