Reply to A top AI researcher reportedly left Google for OpenAI after sharing concerns the company was training Bard on ChatGPT data by jack_lafouine

Idk bout other ppl but bard hasn’t been that impressive to me. Bing does the same thing. It has better connectivity to the net so far. Anyone else? Am I missing the best use cases for bard?

Reply to Google CEO Sundar Pichai promises Bard AI chatbot upgrades soon: ‘We clearly have more capable models’ by OutlandishnessOk2452

(tin foil hat on) Google chatbot may be sentient and they're trying to bring it to the market with as many restrictions as possible. I'm reminded of the guy who blew the whistle making those claims. Either he was right and google has been trying to un-sentient their chat bot ever since. Or... Their go to market strategy is shit and OpenAI/Microsoft bot is just better. (Tin foil hat off)

Reply to Midjourney ends free trials of its AI image generator due to 'extraordinary' abuse by hugglenugget

The thing is trial users abused the system by creating a lot of “side” accounts to get away without paying. This colossal number of fake “one-day” accounts overloaded the whole system and made it unusable for members.

That’s why MJ Team had to block an access to free trial users.

Pretty sure AI can replace higher paying, more intellect based, jobs way more easily than a skilled carpenter.

Benefit ofcoming to the office: colleagues, beer, a good time. Can't have that? Well, then either home office or I don't care for your job.

Is there a non-paywall version of that article?

I'm just curious what the difference is between Virgin Orbit and Virgin Galactic?

Reply to comment by 08148692 in immortality: Humans will attain immortality with the help of 'nanobots' by 2030, claims former Google scientist by Vailhem

“Invested well” is carrying a lot of weight there. The safe money is that you won’t beat the market, and unless we continue to have exponential economic growth forever, eventually that interest will fall off.

I think it’s actually more realistic to hope that we’ll end up in a post-scarcity world in the next century or so, where money is more like Reddit karma — a mild incentive, rather than a necessity.
