Fuck AI

"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"

A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

I will not believe these CEOs until they replace themselves with AI.

[–] LiveLM@lemmy.zip 40 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago)

urged workers to keep relying on AI tools even when they fall short. If AI does not yet work for a particular task, he said, employees should “use it until it does”

My honest reaction:

[–] SalamenceFury@lemmy.world 180 points 6 days ago (3 children)

I would not be surprised in the slightest if the cause of Nvidia drivers being absolute dogshit lately is because this absolute fucking MORON is forcing the devs to use AI to code the DRIVERS. THE ONE THING YOU DO NOT WANT FUCKING AI MEDDLING WITH.

If Microsoft did it with Windows 11 (which resulted in various SSD failures for a bunch of people), I have no doubt in my mind that Nvidia does it too.

I mean... I can think of a lot more than just that one thing

What is up with the drivers?

[–] Truscape@lemmy.blahaj.zone 80 points 6 days ago (2 children)

In a word - instability. Downgrading driver versions for Nvidia cards is not an uncommon troubleshooting step now, which is not ideal.

[–] 87Six@lemmy.zip 23 points 5 days ago

AMD had poor drivers because they were inexperienced

Nvidia has poor drivers because they're shoving AI in all their holes

[–] zurohki@aussie.zone 22 points 6 days ago

That's binary blob drivers for you, you just try different versions and hope it gets better someday.

One of the big advantages to open source drivers is that you can do a bisect to track some new breakage back to a specific patch. Sure, most people don't know how to do that, but there's a lot of people who can. And then the problem gets fixed for everybody.

Honestly at this point I could kill these rich old fucks with my bare hands and feel nothing.

Not even a little bit of happiness? 😁

[–] Tigeroovy@lemmy.ca 12 points 4 days ago

Relief maybe.

Uh, using the AI doesn't train the AI, bud.

[–] WallsToTheBalls@lemmynsfw.com 32 points 5 days ago (17 children)

Genuinely, this is the driving misconception people have about AIs right now. That somehow everybody using them is making them smarter, when really it’s leading to model collapse

I think the lesson Jensen is pushing here is "use it until you learn to stop complaining about it"

Well that logic perfectly explains why some people keep making AI generated content even when others say they don't want it, keep pushing slop until we do!

[–] titanicx@lemmy.zip 37 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Typical CEOs that have no idea what the fuck AI actually is that just want you to use ai.

[–] Nalivai@lemmy.world 38 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Jensen is actually pretty savvy, he knows exactly what it is and what's its purpose.
It's whatever runs on Nvidia chips, and it's purpose is to sell Nvidia chips.

[–] chonglibloodsport@lemmy.world 10 points 5 days ago (2 children)

Yeah. It’s just the current band wagon he jumped on. Crypto was the previous one and gaming was the one before that.

Anything to sell more chips.

[–] Valmond@lemmy.world 7 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Seen like that it did help destroy the video game market. But with gamers cheering it on.

Diablo 2, C&C, Red alert, Commandos, Point&Click, ... the best games are not about 3D graphics, fight me!

[–] chonglibloodsport@lemmy.world 7 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Thankfully indie game devs haven’t forgotten that 2D is the best and good stories matter.

“I want every task that is possible to be automated with artificial intelligence to be automated with artificial intelligence,” he added. “I promise you, you will have work to do.”

I think every task that can be automated with LLMs is already automated. It's just that it's a very short list.

[–] zqwzzle@lemmy.ca 68 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Among them CEOs and some politicians.

[–] kopasz7@sh.itjust.works 60 points 6 days ago (1 children)

While I agree CEOs don't do much work. We still need a person there, because code can't be held accoun- nevermind, that ship has long sailed.

[–] Truscape@lemmy.blahaj.zone 42 points 6 days ago

"A computer can never be held accountable. Therefore a computer must never make a management decision."

  • IBM motto, 1979

Although at this point our computing philosophies from that era are ancient history according to these shortsighted people.

[–] TemplaerDude@sh.itjust.works 89 points 6 days ago (7 children)

It wasn’t that long when Jensen was just the funny guy who’d come out and announced a bunch of cards and say some wacky shit, everyone outside of the tech press would ignore him and that was that.

Kinda miss those days

[–] IronBird@lemmy.world 20 points 6 days ago

if he wants to prop this bubble up he needs to sign more titties

Billionaire... For now.

If Nvidia tanks he'll be a measly hunded-millionaire.

P.s. large margin of error I have not deeply analysed Jensen Wang's stock holdings for a shitpost.
[–] SaveTheTuaHawk@lemmy.ca 18 points 5 days ago

How fucking accurate was Silicon Valley? Huang maight be in the Dos Commas club soon.

[–] Blackmist@feddit.uk 11 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago) (2 children)

That's a pretty low net worth considering Nvidia's market cap.

I assumed he could afford to start Jurassic Park for real by now, purely to skin a T-rex for his jacket collection.

Someone should use AI to flood his company with emails, customer service requests, return requests, service tickets, etc. Just an endless avalanche of AI generated demands that must be dealt with immediately. And let it go on forever.

Old people's opinions are often the result of failing biological hardware, or wetware if you prefer. He should focus on anti-aging instead of forcing people to use comical tools used to make farting fat men for anything serious or important.

Maybe he should fly on an AI piloted airplane until it lands right.

“I promise you, you will have work to do.”

Usually thats slang for, get ready to be laid off.

[–] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 6 points 4 days ago

Mailing out 1000 resumes a day is hard work. Maybe it could even be a line in your resume:

"Automated heavy email output using multiple AI tools."

[–] Rcklsabndn@sh.itjust.works 5 points 4 days ago

The whole thing with using AI at work is that you have become a trainer, and once the trainee can do your job, well, you no longer have a job.

[–] mysticpickle@lemmy.ca 62 points 6 days ago (2 children)

Moment of Irony:

For this story, Fortune used generative AI to help with an initial draft. An editor verified the accuracy of the information before publishing.

“I want every task that is possible to be automated with artificial intelligence to be automated with artificial intelligence,” he added. “I promise you, you will have work to do.”

Well, yeah. Obviously, someone is going to have to unfuck everything AI fucked up...so, in a way, using AI is kind of like adding a layer of job security to your job.

Reminds of when companies offshored their whole dev team and just sent requirements to them thinking they’d make code cheaper.

[–] zurohki@aussie.zone 27 points 6 days ago (1 children)

I mean, it was cheaper. It's just that it was also awful. It was basically like firing all your senior devs and giving their work to randos who can't code, but with plausible deniability.

The output of this era will be remembered for its mediocrity but the shareholder value will be through the roof.
