Artificial Intelligence: AI - The dumb man's way to becoming a genius

Having affairs with Chatbots ?

More people are doing it apparently.

Is it an emotional release or a sign of insanity ?

Alanah has lost track of the amount of porn of her being shared. It's all fake

We’re entering a new era of artificial intelligence, where human-like conversation and images can be created with the click of a button. Already, the powerful technology is changing our lives — for better or worse.

Well worth finding out just how interested AI might be in your computer. I wonder how organisations to date have been dealing with this issue ?? ​

New cyber software can verify how much knowledge AI really knows​

Date: April 4, 2023 Source: University of Surrey Summary:

With a growing interest in generative artificial intelligence (AI) systems worldwide, researchers have created software that is able to verify how much information an AI farmed from an organization's digital database.

Microsoft’s Bing is an emotionally manipulative liar, and people love it​

Users have been reporting all sorts of ‘unhinged’ behavior from Microsoft’s AI chatbot. In one conversation with The Verge, Bing even claimed it spied on Microsoft’s employees through webcams on their laptops and manipulated them.​

I'm updating my programming knowledge. Even if I only get to mediocre skill level ai will help with the rest.
I'm currently using free online sources. Backed up with Bing's ai bot, which has been a fantastic tutor. I can ask it in-depth questions and it will explain until I get the concept.
Can't praise it enough.

I'm using Bing's ai as I'm too lazy to log onto chatgpt. Interestingly enough, I've stopped using google altogether. I was never a fan of that dckbag company though.

Lets enjoy AI while we can. The concerns raised by people like Google (ex) chief AI developer Geoffrey Hinton could certainly spoil the party.
I didn't realise just how significant his role in AI is until I read this article.

‘A race it might be impossible to stop’: how worried should we be about AI?​

Scientists are warning machine learning will soon outsmart humans – maybe it’s time for us to take note

Last Monday an eminent, elderly British scientist lobbed a grenade into the febrile anthill of researchers and corporations currently obsessed with artificial intelligence or AI (aka, for the most part, a technology called machine learning). The scientist was Geoffrey Hinton, and the bombshell was the news that he was leaving Google, where he had been doing great work on machine learning for the last 10 years, because he wanted to be free to express his fears about where the technology he had played a seminal role in founding was heading.

Excellent interview with Geoffry Hinton

‘We’ve discovered the secret of immortality. The bad news is it’s not for us’: why the godfather of AI fears for humanity

Geoffrey Hinton recently quit Google warning of the dangers of artificial intelligence. Is AI really going to destroy us? And how long do we have to prevent it?

Scary reading.
I need to back and reread a heap of those sci fi novels by Asimov and others.
They may have to remove the fi part from the sci fi moniker.

We could always EMP ourselves. That'd put a full stop on it, at least for long enough to dismantle this lunacy. </onlyhalftongueincheek>

It is getting really scary, AI husbands are running amok.

Just turn off the internet. Cash may make a comeback.

Given Amazon has converted a lot of books to digital. I wonder if they will have a crack.

I wouldn't use anything Google related. If they ain't stealing your data, then they are trying to tell you how to think.

Interesting that AI has problems with this task:

Write ten sentences that end with "apple".

Google produces search results to suit their agenda.

Wikipedia doesn't allow alternative science on the CAGW hypothesis.

AI is telling us what is real, or not...

In George Orwell’s 1984, the Ministry of Truth exercises absolute control of information according to The Party ethos, “Who controls the past, controls the future: who controls the present, controls the past”.

If the Ministry of Truth existed today, a more accurate slogan would be “Who controls the AI controls the past, the present and the future”.

The expeditious rise of generative AI products such as ChatGPT and Bard would be an alluring tool for the fictitious Ministry of Truth. These AI products can alter our perception of reality – presenting fiction as fact, and potentially giving biased answers and misinformation a veneer of objective truth. When introducing Bard in February, Sundar Pichai (chief executive of Google and Alphabet) described AI as “the most profound technology we are working on today”. He is undoubtedly correct.

I believe they recognise them for what they are. Much like debates around The Holocaust

The editor of the CAGW page was sacked for deleting dissenting opinions after it was investigated.

Bringing opinion of the holocaust into this is a new low. Your avatar would be ashamed.

No way Sean. Just a different form of poisonous lies. Unfortunately the relentless efforts to undermine effective community/political action on global warming is affecting everyone now and all future generations.

Thinking about hyper realistic AI generated films and legal liability.

A hypothetical situation. Someone accesses legal documents, emails, recordings of a high profile persons activities. In particular these may have affected a third party. Perhaps a partner, an aggrieved colleague or someone who has signed a PDA to shut them up.

Anyway an AI video is released using the vision and voice of the third party to spill the dirt on the high profile person. The information is correct but the person did not say it. It was AI generated

How would the person being impersonated respond ? They can clearly deny the video is an AI fake. Do they then deny the accuracy of the statements ? Are they liable for damages if they don't deny statements they know to be true ?

Any bush lawyers around ?

Interesting points Bas.

You can be pretty sure such things will play out in court or the media at some time.
