Kaws, one of those pop art figures that ended up getting merchandized to hell and back.

Sounds like someone needs to take a little break from social media.

IRA member who tortured people was actually English. Shocking. /s

This is ageism. Social media should be banned for everyone.

I think the future will be somewhere between what we consider normal now and the austere dystopia you envision. This AI shit certainly isn't making the world any better, that's for sure.

Unfortunately that is a laughably miniscule number compared to the DoD budget, and great news for the arms manufacturers they will pay to replace them. As the other commenter said you cannot stop the US war machine with bills, only with body bags.

We used to undermine the security of our customers systems.

We still do. But we used to, too.

Dell used to. Not sure of they still do.

Space-y but not Spacey.

Agree. WaW and MW2 were decent follow-ups to CoD4 despite not quite measuring up. Blops and everything after was pure slop.

And it's all DoD-funded US military propaganda.

I think that to a degree we're buying into the showmanship and claims of AI companies concerning the future, when the reality is that there are hard limits to the functionality of generative AI and LLMs. They want us to think that they're building Rocco's Basilisk because that's some good terrifying viral marketing. But it isn't true.

I've personally tried these tools at home. I've got LM Studio and ComfyUI on my PC. They're novel and all, but they do have a hard limit to usefulness. You cannot rely on an information tool that returns the wrong information half the time. Not because it's annoying but because people want and need to get stuff done, and ultimately AI will get in the way of getting stuff done.

Oh yeah, the presentation he was commenting on did suck, and while what he said to those guys was harsh it was entirely justified.
