Model Evaluation and Threat Research is an AI research charity that looks into the threat of AI agents! That sounds a bit AI doomsday cult, and they take funding from the AI doomsday cult organisat…
I’m not surprised by the results, but it’s hardly a fair assessment of the usefulness of AI.
It’s a more than fair assessment of the claims of usefulness of AI which are more or less “fire all your devs this machine is better than them already”
And the other “nuanced” take, common on my linkedin feed, is that people who learn how to use (useless) AI are gonna replace everyone with their much increased productive output.
Even if AI becomes not so useless, the only people whose productivity will actually improve are the people who aren’t using it now (because they correctly notice that its a waste of time).
