Altman thinks the public won't be talking as much about "AI" a decade from now -- it'll be expected everywhere. "A kid growing up today will never be smarter than AI, but he or she will also never have understood a world where every product and service that they interact with is not really smart and really capable and really helpful," he said.

Stop quoting CEOs. They are always saying what they think will make them more money. Always.

Of all the CEO fuck heads Scam Altman truly is the most annoying one. I think i'm going to put his name in my little filter list right under the name of the most pathetic fuck head.

All of the Broligarchs (Zuck, Huang, Thiel, 'The Mummy' Ellison) are annoying and dangerous, but Altman sure has the most punchable face of all, for whatever reason.

Good luck, have fun, get Altman first.

Little filter sounds preferable to the big filter

This is demonstrably wrong. It doesn't have the ability to reason. Every kid is smarter than the extrapolation machine. Because the extrapolation machine doesn't have smarts.

Either he doesn't understand the product he's schilling or he does and he thinks we're idiots. I'll let y'all decide which.

If it was half as good as these guys claim thay wouldnt need to constantly pump it up and tell us we need to be using it for everything.

Where it is good people are already using it. Even in it's best case it's not a "must have"

Do you reckon that's what people said during the industrial revolution

I'm not putting any value in the words of someone who sexually assaulted his own sister.

Altman thinks the public won’t be talking as much about “AI” a decade from now

correct, but not for the reasons he thinks

[-] MrOtingocni@lemmy.world 6 points 1 day ago

Just posting stupid shit so-and-so says sounds like engagement bait. Waste of time.

Altman's time on earth sure is negotioable.

“A kid growing up today will never be smarter than AI” is depressing as fuck.

Also I have two kids and they’re both vastly smarter than “AI” in most ways.

That tracks! The Epstein class doesn't understand or care about consent...

[-] daggermoon@piefed.world 12 points 1 day ago

But every product that uses AI isn't smart or helpful.

A kid growing up today will never be smarter than AI

And who's fault do you think that is?

You will be assimilated. Resistance is futile!

Slacktoid, owner of slacktoids Altoids, says the use of breathmints is non-negotiatiable. Infact stinky breath should be punishable by death!!
