My view of AI (10)

Adults acting like kids. The drawings, like that Stephanie drawning above, were based on the adult actors in the last play

From what I've heard, it's typical for plays to do this. People watching have a better suspention of disbelief. Could be wrong though, plays aren't my thing

So the characters are supposed to be adults who are childish? Or do you mean they are adult actors playing child characters?

Apple to raise prices due to memory chip costs


This is exactly why I got an iPhone 17 recently and gave my girlfriend my 15. I figured Apple could not defy the gravity of RAM prices forever (and now there's a helium shortage due to the war).

I wonder what the helium shortage will do to the already overpriced AI chips, since it is used in their manufacture.

"I Was Right About AI"

LOL $2000! Yeah these companies are spending a ton of money but they are buying everything at grossly inflated prices so they aren't getting much for their cash. And if they fail, the hardware will be worth 1/10th of what they paid for it during the liquidations. "The greatest misallocation of capital in history" as an AI researcher said.

And it has nothing to do with increased costs to produce them. It costs them exactly the same to manufacture the hardware.
It's all being priced on the rediculous supply and demand.

If people can run an LLM on their computer I wonder why these companies think they need town-sized data centers.

Here's one BRBFBI can relate to more than I can.

Why? Because I have normal human empathy? 🙃

I realized what was winning me over about ChatGPT wasn’t its ability to sift through the latest studies, or diagnose my ailments; but its unwavering messages of empathy and encouragement, its endless willingness to listen and its patience. It’s not human, but it can model some traits we value most in human interaction.

[chuft]

Because you don't feel an immediate, contemptuous, incredulous surge of scorn for people who think computer programs have empathy.
