A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

The article title is very click baity, but I found the actual discussion and reasoning for why this will happen and how it can be stopped to be thoughtful.

“You cannot regulate the design of a hammer so that it can drive nails but not kill anyone, but you can criminalize the killing of a human by a hammer,” Gawdat said.

God I hate managers who think they're so deep 🙄

While I do agree with a lot of the points made in the article, most of them seem rather basic stuff that everybody has been talking about since AI has started to rise. The tool isn't necessarily the problem, it's the capitalist incentives for which it is created and used that drive us further towards dystopia. I found it rather funny to read a former exec criticizing capitalism. I wonder what he's up to now?

Also, both the year 2027 and the timespan of 15 years seem confidently pulled out of his backside :).

LLMs won't get smarter in the next 10 years, but they will rapidly outpace humans.
