If China is bad, and the US is good, then why wouldn't we want our military to have access to the same (or better) tooling than they have access to.

I'm so morally dilemma'd here

It's really funny because Cory always champions POSSE. Post (on)own site, share everywhere.

And it's funny because he mostly does that.

Imagine falling asleep on a flight and then you wake up to punches to the face. Id imagine most people would just instinctively cover their face and try to protect themselves.

You'd have no fucking clue what's happening for the first few seconds and if any of the punches landed you might be dazed on top of just waking up. And I'm sure at least a couple landed because you were asleep when attacked.

Hi! It's me, the guy you discussed this with the other day! The guy that said Lemmy is full of AI wet blankets.

I am 100% with Linus AND would say the 10% good use cases can be transformative.

Since there isn't any room for nuance on the Internet, my comment seemed to ruffle feathers. There are definitely some folks out there that act like ALL AI is worthless and LLMs specifically have no value. I provided a list of use cases that I use pretty frequently where it can add value. (Then folks started picking it apart with strawmen).

I gotta say though this wave of AI tech feels different. It reminds me of the early days of the web/computing in the late 90s early 2000s. Where it's fun, exciting, and people are doing all sorts of weird,quirky shit with it, and it's not even close to perfect. It breaks a lot and has limitations but their is something there. There is a lot of promise.

Like I said else where, it ain't replacing humans any time soon, we won't have AGI for decades, and it's not solving world hunger. That's all hype bro bullshit. But there is actual value here.

I'm not saying any thing you guys are saying that I'm saying. Wtf is happening. I never said anything about data loss. I never said I wanted people using LLMs to email each other. So this comment chain is a bunch of internet commenters making weird cherry picked, straw man arguments and misrepresenting or miscomprehending what I'm saying.

Legitimately, the llm grok'd the gist of my comment while you all are arguing against your own strawmen argument.

Haha, yea I'm familiar with it(always heard it called the Barnum effect though it sounds like they are the same thing), but this isn't a fortune cookie-esque, meyers-briggs response.

In this case it actually summarized my post(I guess you could make the case that my post is an opinion that's shared by many people--so forer-y in that sense), and to my other point, it didn't misunderstand and tell me I was envisioning LLMs sending emails back and forth to each other.

Either way, there is this general tenor of negativity on Lemmy about AI (usually conflated to mean just LLMs). I think it's a little misplaced. People are lumping the tech I'm with the hype bros- Altman, Musk, etc. the tech is transformative and there are plenty of valuable uses for it. It can solve real problems now. It doesn't need to be AGI to do that. It doesn't need to be perfect to do that.

As the author of the post it summarized, I agree with the summary.

Now, tell me more about this bridge.

That's not what I am envisioning at all. That would be absurd.

Ironically, an gpt4o understood my post better than you :P

" Overall, your perspective appreciates the real-world applications and benefits of AI while maintaining a critical eye on the surrounding hype and skepticism. You see AI as a transformative tool that, when used appropriately, can enhance both individual and organizational capabilities."
