Canada has been left out of a recent expansion of Google’s artificial intelligence-powered chatbot known as Bard as the big tech giant continues its fight with the federal government over the Online News Act.
Why would anyone give a shit whether Canada gets included in Google’s ai? They just foist this new shit that is effectively useless to the average person other than making shitty “art” and cheating on essay writing. They use it however they want while skirting copyright laws and trawling any data they can get their hands on.
Does anybody really think that ai under google is doing anything other than data-mining to sell advertising? Ai in it’s current form isn’t helping anyone except corporations and the billionaire class and almost everyone would be better off without it.
Not to rain on that parade, but there are some pretty inovative companies using AI for the betterment of society as a whole. What we all hear and see in the media is really stupid corporate types of AI use, which ultimately will fail because AI lacks one thing we all possess, and that is feeling. AI lacks the ability to insightfully mix in feeling to convey the output.
Where it’s great is where it’s all used for calculations similar to how super computers were used.
Raw calculations are not AI. The whole premise is that it will be able to understand/emulate human emotion. Else it’s just like the algorithms we’ve been developing since who knows how long.
AI is data scraping from a landfill of the internet. The only difference is that it’s a gonewild version of it. I’m sorry Dave, I’m afraid I can’t do that.
Tell me how it needs to be said for someone to feel like it’s a human empathetic response but it comes from AI. We aren’t there. And as it progresses we will never be.
I’ll bet my last dollar that this AI movement for replacing people and jobs is nothing more than the same we have seen in the past with self checkouts, speech to text and the likes of that. It will be uses in areas where data is finite, but human subjective is a different beast.
