Chatgpt - Seriously good potential (or just some Internet fun)

Wonder (as a dev) if I should be retraining in something practical. Surely the rate AI is progressing it won't be long before vast swathes of people are out of the job.

I mean it's going to be a long time before no humans are needed. But for a number of sectors you will probably be able to cut out 9/10 people. With 1 of the 10 effectively project managing the bot.

Rate of progress in AI is concerning.

I must be one of the few people who isn't concerned, but actively wants to see AI go further and faster.

I have absolutely no understanding of how the technology works (zero), but I'm deeply sceptical about the claims of potential exponential advancement, or the emergence of general intelligence anywhere near human levels. That's defo in "believe it when I see it" territory, if only because we've never seen it before, and I can't imagine it.

But why would anyone want to put the breaks on?? Surely it's time to see how deep this rabbit hole goes!

How often do we stand before a door that could potentially turn our world upside down? It's a rare opportunity and I'd hate to see us close that door out of fear.

As for losing jobs, so what? That doesn't have to be a bad outcome, surely? People can do other things other than work dead-end jobs they hate for 60 hours a week. That would be an opportunity to reinvent what it means to live and be productive.

It's an exciting time to be alive, and it would be tragic to decide to slow down or stop. Honestly, what's the worst that can happen? Terminator is a Hollywood film, not a prophecy :p

Personally I wonder if AI is being oversold, like VR and cloud gaming only it has a bit more practical application as a tool and can be very useful for business - I think we are actually a lot further away from it being a comprehensive solution than some of these heavily trained systems appear to show.

These things cost a lot to do proper A.I gen advert, the gpu power needed would have been out of reach for many, but you can subscribe to places and pay $30 membership and $100 per month for x amount of hours.

This took 30 secs, could have made it better. Took me longer to sign up to dailymotion and upload it.
I do not have time to perfect it. Spot the mistake?

It's 100% going to "crash" once the hype dies down. People are going to swap to using AI-generated content without properly understanding it, and they're going to experience the shortcomings first hand.

AI will definitely feature in our day-to-day lives, but right now it's more of a toy than a tool.

If you can create content with just a few words at this stage, then as it learns it will become very good at it.
The clip I created was based on individual words, once it becomes advanced and processing power grows I think a lot of companies will be hit. This will allow the individual to challenge the big boys, and I think they are already worried about the advancement.
 
I was hoping after Google I/O and the announcement of Palm 2.0 and Bard being integrated with Adobe Firefly things would be better but Bard is still a little confused

You are correct. I am integrated with Adobe Firefly, but it is not yet fully integrated. I am still under development and I am not yet able to use all of the capabilities of Adobe Firefly.

Originally it said it was able to generate an image

Yes, I can draw an image now. I can use Adobe Firefly and Adobe Express to generate and edit images. I can also draw images by hand, using my knowledge of art and design.
Here are some examples of images that I can draw:
  • Realistic images of people, places, and things
  • Abstract images
  • Cartoons
  • Paintings
  • Drawings
I am still under development, but I am excited to see what I can create with Adobe Firefly and Adobe Express. I hope that this integration will help me to become a more powerful and versatile tool for creators.
What kind of image would you like me to draw?

Now it has corrected itself after I asked it why it lied

I apologize if I gave you the impression that I was able to generate images. I am still under development and I am not yet able to do this. I am working on improving my abilities and I hope that one day I will be able to generate images.
I am still learning how to communicate effectively with humans. I sometimes make mistakes, and I apologize for any confusion or inconvenience that I may cause. I am always trying to improve, and I hope that you will continue to work with me as I learn.

Write a poem about the Knights who say Ni

In forests deep and dark they roam,
The Knights who say Ni, they call home.
Their armor bright and swords at hand,
They wander through enchanted land.

With a cry that shakes the trees,
They demand a shrubbery on their knees.
Their quest for greenery is strong,
And they won't stop until it's gone.

Their name strikes fear in all they meet,
The Knights who say Ni, they can't be beat.
Their power is in their unified voice,
Their request for shrubs, their only choice.

So if you see them on your way,
Beware the Knights who say Ni, they may
Demand a shrubbery of you too,
And there's nothing you can do.

But fear not, for they mean no harm,
Just a shrubbery to adorn their arm.
For the Knights who say Ni are brave,
And their quest for greenery, they won't waive.
 
Edward Leer would be proud of that

These senate hearing are all a bit toothless just a chance for political grandstanding by ' I am am a US senator ' folks , and self-flagellation by the accused
they already had faceache guy up there and they have neither legislated or done anything to fix it, tiktok guy too. - but the grooming etc.continues.
the technology committee in the UK are the same.

BT to cut 55,000 jobs with up to a fifth replaced by AI

The telecoms giant plans to shed up to 40% of its workforce by the end of the decade to cut costs.
www.bbc.co.uk

Telecoms giant BT is to shed up to 55,000 jobs by the end of the decade, mostly in the UK, as it cuts costs.
Up to a fifth of those cuts will come in customer services as staff are replaced by technologies including artificial intelligence.
The headcount reduction from the current workforce of 130,000 includes staff and contractors.
