The thing I hate most about “AI” is that reporting on it ranges from deluded sam Altman talking about Dyson spheres to this doomer terminator baiting.

LLMs are not AI, it’s an algorithm that finds the most likely next word given a set of training data. We’ve fed it a pile of the shit we say, and it’s feeding us back the shit. It doesn’t plan, think, have opinions, or anything. Now we write stupid shit like this. We are yelling into a canyon and spooking ourselves out with the echoes of the shit we said.
