I haven’t watched it yet but given the context I’m going to assume they mean ‘traditional’ machine learning and not specifically the LLMs or diffusion models which are now usually called “AI”. I feel like domain specific ML models are not a problem - they don’t scrape the web or require new power plants to operate.
But yeah LLMs are evil.
And I’ll see if I’m wrong after watching it.
Update:
Yeah, I cringed a bit every time he said AI for a regular machine learning system, but that’s what he meant. And unfortunately given the general public I kinda understand why he used the term. (And he does actually explain it as ML also)
Not sure about this, since he says all of these interventions was possible due to AI. Fuck AI and won’t trust anything built on it.
