This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
AI is most useful for surveillance and social engineering. It’s no wonder all the fascists love it.
I'm still failing to see enough upsides to AI to justify the mad rush all these greedy arseholes are to get it into everything.
that's what makes europe great
what a fucking moron.
they didn't give up on it.
they never bought in.
He's such an awful, ghoulish vampire, him, the oracle guy and the paypal mafia. Why are these people taken more seriously than senile crackheads like they're USA presidents.
They belong in mental asylums with mouth gags permanently attached to contain their mental poison.
Well because AI has been mostly hype and worthless. It has uses, but not as life changing as promised. And extremely energy intensive.
It will hit the average person in ways they cant see, my firm isnt replacing retirements because they can be filled by AI. What was once a vital role has been downgraded to the point where it can be completed by an AI, their manager now handles the back office parts and AI escalationz which given their nature will reduce overtime. In a business unit of ~40 people 7 have retired without issue and there are no plans to replace the rest as they go.
Your customers have noticed the decline in quality, guarantee it.
No, I'd doubt it. Its quite a robust system that has been trialed extensively on a use case by case basis. Its also not directly customer facing.
I think it could be life changing, but true progress will take time, like any tech. There's a reason most scientists know you can't just throw money at something and just make it work. That's why technocracy and the idea of chosen elite is so fucking dumb.
Imagine if in the 80s we had just said ok, Steve Jobs did it. We're done here. We don't give any outside voices or ideas in tech a chance unless Jobs gives it the ok first. Imagine how much cool shit we would have missed out on if people hadn't just said fuck it I don't need all that money, I'll just make my own shit and make it work with what I have.
Innovation and progress does not flourish in a neatly controlled box, and most people that don't just buy other people's work know that. That's the real reason people started pushing for DEI. Not just bc it was the "PC" thing to do. It helps bring new perspectives which then leads to new ways of thinking and problem solving.
If you completely isolate AI you may get some cool shit but eventually if you just buy out the entire market to fit your singular vision you get repeating/boring and stale.
I'm pretty sure they think they're at a point where if they just keep throwing money at it, it will just start getting creative and update itself, but when it's as unreliable as it is, I don't see that happening anytime soon
I wonder how hard it is to gather private info on Palantir CEO and upper management 🤔
This dude is pure evil and anyone who tolerates his presence is a fascist 👍
Why does it feel like all the worst people are working together to fuck over the world?
Bevause we are letting our guard down from psychopaths, seduced by their money and submissive toward them to get some. Reduced to prostitutes on our knees to please them for rewards they convince us to crave while using our pension funds so they can take bet on exploitating us more.
Because we are losing the class war
Bc you're paying attention and not sticking your head in the sand.
It feels like it bc they definitely are. I'm in Louisiana and just woke up to find out news my corrupt Governor is being accused of scheming to install a new senator so that he can then have them resign and take both Senate and governor seats for himself.
One of several examples of how Landry and Trump seem to be scheming together to be as corrupt as possible
Even for Louisiana that's a whole other level of corruption..not even the first Louisiana governor to do it, but the last one was in the 30s.
The last governor that was this blatant about corruption also had a personal vendetta against my city and tried to take it under siege using the national guard
Guess what else the current governor and his doge inspired task force are scheming
For a brief brief moment I was elated when I parsed the title as 'Palantir says it has given up on AI'. Then I read the article and was left dejected.
Who cares what Peter Thiel thinks about anything. He's a leading cause of the plutocracy that is now happening in the United States, and that's one of his better points.
Even if he was knowledgeable on the subject he has a biased take anyway.
I'm not saying I believe its important, the president believes it's important bc Thiel has been funding him and making policy decisions since his first term, most people (myself included) just didn't notice it until the second one.
The first time, he tried to promote AI deregulation while insisting we would retain American values that helped us be better than China's surveillance state, but then Trump lost power and Thiel lost 4 years of progress at the global AI table because of those values (democracy and the constitution). Now that he's gotten his seat back he's not going to risk ever letting it go. IF he ever intended to try to maintain or respect those values before, he certainly doesn't now.
That is why the truth behind Trump/JD Vance/Adrian Vermeule's argument for a constitutional interpretation of strong executive authority needs to be made loud and clear.
I cannot comprehend how anyone who is not already a billionaire could be dumb enough to support this, but let's just be honest about what you're supporting.
Teal boy has a bias alright, it's the lense of pure fucking evil and greed.
The only care I have for his opinion is to know it to actively do the opposite at every occasion in an effort to make the world a better place.
I personally have no problem with AI (all your problems with AI can be solved by overthrowing capitalism), but I don't want to hear anything from these guys.
There are huge issues with AI, namely its very negative effect on the environment as well as being trained on misinformation.
Oh, the environment thing is true, fair enough.
I wish we would have given up on it ... but that shit is still creeping in everywhere.
death is not good enough for ai people
We should just wall off Florida (all my world improvement plans involve walling off Florida), stick them in there and then have the AI administer their lives, and see how long they last.
this is one THiels spy tech companies.
Given up? I am not sure we even tried and with good reason, it's a dumb technology based entirely on hype.
What an ignorant statement. Unlike other hypes, AI is far from dumb and has a lot of useful applications that could better the world.
What's dumb is the hyped up solutions everyone is talking about.
Ok yeah AI is a broad collection of algorithms, but most people when hear AI will think the current iteration of llm models. That's how I used it.
Yes, so was I
What do you mean? Everything I own is connected to the blockchain and I have NFTs hanging on all of my walls.
