The first time I saw a replika ad I thought it was satire. The reddit is one of the saddest things I've ever seen. Just the most isolated people acting like the chatbot is a real friend :(

after playing with chatgpt I’m pretty sure my programming career is safe

for how long tho? I don’t mean this in a disparaging way, but AI is advancing relatively quickly, seems that whatever we think about it now will definitely be wrong in ten years. it’s an arms race and there are huge savings to be made replacing people with computers :(

we can’t really stop progress, the horse is out the gate and it’s a matter of when not if, and overall I think it’s a sadder state of affairs for humans, even if it brings some benefits. welp

use AI to write the boring parts of code so you can save the exciting parts for yourselves

the quality of output essentially doesn't matter (which, to be clear, sucks rear end)


idk if it does. well maybe most of it does, but there are some examples of some very good stuff, stuff that at least looks like something a human could/would have made

stable diffusion and whatever else that came out in 2012 really opened some floodgates and all of a sudden the enthusiasts really ran with it and they’ve been the ones who have managed to drive it harder and faster and the output can be pretty convincing

ai graphics and texts are birds of a feather i think. looking at it from an artistic standpoint is very similar to reading ai generated text: it's convincing, and it might even be kinda good, but it's... off, somehow. you can tell

I often agree, but I think this is a case of seeing enough of it to get a human intuition for how it's off

I suspect if someone went back in time 10 years it would be nearly indistinguishable from contemporary digital art, I doubt people would question the integrity of the person producing it, but if we're talking about AI stuff from even 2 years ago? yeah that definitely looked wrong in a fundamental way


thing is, AI approaches human skill in a way that our intuitions don't serve us very well as far as judging it goes, I don't think it's reasonable to make assumptions about it's lack of ability because we really haven't seen what it's gonna be able to do, it's such an unknown.



even if AI can't do anything better than a human, it can certainly learn from the best human in every domain to become quite superhuman in it's totality of capabilities
