Read a beautiful tweet the other day: "A world where humans do the hard labour for minimum wage while AI write poetry and create art is not the future I wanted."
Perfect, the ultimate uno reverso, thought AI would do all the shite work letting humans focus on higher thought? Fooled ya...
It's the non-artists that are going to exploit real artists to cash in.
What's supposed to happen is that they're just tools. They make your job easier as opposed to replacing you...
CEOs get orgasms just thinking about the latter possibility, but I think they don't understand that they're gonna be the first ones to be replaced. Their job is easier than any manual labor/ essential service out there and an AI can replace them and make better decisions with the snap of a finger.
Is that from Poetry for Cynics?
I wish this cited who composed that. That is a nifty sentence.
"Tech companies are powered by hype."
I have never heard a more accurate statement.
So are RUclips channels that try to spread fear about AI for views.
Yeah, as a tech enthusiast, this has been the realization for longer than I can even remember. I'm really happy adam made this video, there's an unhealthy amount of hype and misinformation
@@kagesong Since that has nothing to do with this video and I don't spend much time on the (more) stupid part of RUclips, you'll have to be clearer about what it is you are referencing.
which tech companies? If you mean all or majority of them then it's definitely not true.
Wonder why they are multiple trillion dollar companies. Hype? Investors aren't that stupid.
Sad that I just found this video, 11 months after its making, but it's still gold. I work as a software engineer, and I'm absolutely not impressed by what we call "AI". What is blatantly obvious though is that these companies are just generating and riding the hype train again, to ruthlessly exploit all possible profit at the cost of being extremely reckless, which is quite disillusioning for me personally, because (and maybe I was just naive, but) this is the first time I'm witnessing this happening with abundant clarity.
What about now lol
this aged like milk. sure companies use hype, but AI is VERY real...
I don't understand what would have changed. It is still completely unreliable and lacking any actual intelligence: it's still stating completely untrue things with perfect confidence, and it's still unable to ask for clarifications or additional parameters. The fact that ChatGTP version whatever can imitate human voice too doesn't change these fundamental problems, in act it's part of the fundamental problem that the entire thing is pure imitation.
The last time I tried to use it it ended up claiming that a specific compact PC product has a volume of 0.2 liters (because probably it picked up some incorrect information from somewhere, or it was converting units incorrectly), and when I "confronted" it about this it confirmed that it is indeed correct. Fortunately I don't know a single human person who'd be so idiotic that they don't realize when something is transparently nonsensical.
There's already massive layoffs in graphic design and web development.
@@ginebro1930 Yes, there are a lot of layoffs, because the flavor of the month is layoff. That's what corporations use currently for virtue signaling to their shareholders to pump up the share price, and what smaller companies end up imitating. Also the financial conditions are tighter now due to the higher interest rates. Not to mention there was a lot of rapid growth in tech during the covid period, adding excess weight to some companies, so it's easy to find fat to trim. But if someone in a developer role can be genuinely replaced by AI at this point then arguably they should have been doing something else in the first place. 🙈
To add onto 14:29
the “Chinese room” thought experiment:
You sit in a room and you only know English. A paper with squiggles on it comes in from a slot on the wall. You have a book (written in English) with rules like “If input is [this], send out [that]” and you follow the book and send out from the slot a different series of squiggles.
What you don’t know, is that the “squiggles” are Chinese characters and people outside the room are sending in messages in the slot and getting “responses” from you. They all believe that you’re a fluent Chinese speaker and are sharing your thoughts and feelings with them.
In reality, you have no idea what is happening. You just follow what a rulebook says.
You don't understand Chinese, but for all intents and purposes, the room knows Chinese.
@@danielblank9917Not necessarily. The room is essentially just the book and the rules it has listed. Maybe something like “If [thank you] send [you’re welcome]” etc.
It’s all prewritten rules, like a text prediction software.
We can say it “knows Chinese” similar to how Google translate has a strong grasp on language, but there’s definitely no “emotion” behind it.
The book has a ton of rules written in it, but at the end of the day, the book doesn’t have thoughts, feelings, or opinions.
@@littleblueclovers except thats not how LLMs work. Thats how chatbots worked 15 years ago maybe
@@danielblank9917you can argue that HUMANs ourselfs are a chinese room, because there is no evidence that we “know” chinese ether etc, since the way our brain works is actually very similar
@@littlebluecloversexactly! Have you ever read Discworld books? In the first one, The Color of Magic, there is a character who has a book that can "tell" him what to say to communicate in a language that is not his. We know this kind of magical book as a phrase book for tourists.
Video Description: The risk of AI isn't that some super-intelligent computer is going to take over in the future -- it's that the humans in the tech industry are going to screw the rest of us over right now.
Perfect description of the whole situation 👏
I can't wait for it to happen. The whole capitalist system is gonna crash from it.

in other news water is wet. this was disappointing, adam usually makes interesting in-depth videos this was just stating the obvious. might be helpful for people that have no idea about anything regarding AI but its just too surface level for anyone that has been casually reading headlines about the subject.
@@mouthless177 I agree with your outlook, I suppose this is difficult to listen to though because at this point all stances against it are being treated in the same manner by anybody opposed to it, the triviality of our circumstances of getting pegged
I had a programing teacher who first taught us " Computers are stupid, they will do exactly what they are told to do, in the exact way they were told to do it."
And there are some ppl who can't even do what they are told to do
@@Gingnose Which is a good thing because what they are told to do isn't always right. You realise we would all be dead if it wasn't for a guy using his own intuition and not doing what he was told to do? Colonel Stanislav Petrov.
Well not in this case, AI comes up with it's own conclusions based off of it's experience and their ingested datasets. People like software devs have no idea how the connections are made, and so there's no way yo know what it will say except by asking it questions.
@Derrick James AI doesn't come up with its own answers. It's all based on a statistical model that tells it what to choose at each step. Developers don't know what it will decide because it goes through too many permutations and looks at too many variables. The models are created by software devs and they could, if they wanted, have the AI spit out the equations at every step of the way but it would be meaningless everyone but the people developing the AI or model. Don't fall for the marketing hype. It's a machine doing what it's told, how it's told to do it.
@alexfivecoats8159 you took what I said wrong. What it outputs is based on that data that is put into the model. Now when you start wanting to automatically make decisions based on that output, it is no longer a machine being told what to do, it's training itself and based on that training data it will adjust it's actions. There's more nuance to this than you'd like to give credence to.
As a computer programmer I first got scared that AI might take my job. But the more I tried to use it to generate my programs for me, the more I realised how phoney it was.
Have you experienced coworkers getting laid off due to the productivity of one person increasing?
If you’re using AI properly you’d know that’s false.

From 1984 by George Orwell:
“There was a whole chain of separate departments dealing with proletarian literature, music, drama, and entertainment generally. Here were produced rubbishy newspapers containing almost nothing except sport, crime and astrology, sensational five-cent novelettes, films oozing with sex, and sentimental songs which were composed entirely by mechanical means on a special kind of kaleidoscope known as a versificator.”
ngl this is the future in 2284
I remember very well the novel writing machines. The images conjured in my mind are something else. Imagine an array of long, cylindrical machines about the width of a jet engine, but much longer. The machines resembles that of a Babbage engine and a typewriter, but on an industrial scale. Orwell's imagination was at its peak for this novel. Amazing stuff.
@@Biosynchro
That’s an interesting image.
Because he says it dose it like kaleidoscope I always imagined it to be discs with small discs on it in a geometric pattern turning around to form the words.
This is just a throw a way line in the book but it stuck out to me from the first time I read it. The idea of a machine mindlessly producing literature was fascinating and horrifying to me and so when I heard about these generative AI algorithms and how they worked I thought “they’ve actually built a verseificaror”. Yes 1984 is Orwell’s best work and one of the best books of all time. More people should read it.
"And here's the real problem, because these companies are advertising their AIs as hyper accurate oracles of knowledge, a lot of people fucking believe it" - Adam Conover
They do have a massive amount of knowledge, more than any typical human being has. But they are still prone to mistakes. I've noticed Bing GPT4 sometimes giving me the wrong information on things. But that is something that will eventually be fixed.
I’m not doubting it but where is there a good example of them promoting their AI products as hyper-accurate oracles of knowledge?
actually they tell you all this when you use it Adam failed badly there that was full for bs it just came from him just try it see for yourself but use the real site not the bs he must off looked at wonder if he will do a retraction on this epic fail. hell he looks like he was up all night working on that rant not every called gpt is made by open ai and we are getting 900% increases in performances. just but screwing around with it so much more to go in a year he will be using it just to keep up lol
HR organizations are using AI to get candidates and it's been a shit show trying to get decent candidates because they're rejected without even seeing a resume because of varying terminology. (Ie. Software developer vs. developer)
Fun fact: a lawyer recently used Chat GPT to write a legal case. It cited fake cases, wrong names for real judges and couldn’t even use the same font for the whole thing. The lawyer got disbarred.
that’s upsetting lmao
Legal Eagle did a great video on that topic!
Too bad that lawyer didn't do the work he would have gotten 3-4 sources like you are supposed to do. Also one of the AI firms is developing three for money AI services. One for legal and one for medical diagnosis and several for coding and debugging. They will do much better because they can research thousands of cases and get good info. However the medical one particularly still needs a complete physical to get all the symptoms even good doctors can't read all the data in a medical library much less remember it.
@@moendopi5430
It's ridiculous to think lawyers would ever present honest assessments on the ability of AI to make lawyers obsolete.
In the end it got the job done. One less incompetent lawyer.
As someone who actually studies AI in academia, my advice is to not use machine learning techniques for any problem where there exists a deterministic solution. ESPECIALLY when you need an exact answer and error is not tolerable. A search engine is a bad use for ML because there already exists effective procedural methods for returning relevant results. ML as autopilot is REALLY bad use of ML because it is, more or less, just guessing about the next best move to take. On the other hand, ML is great for tasks like playing chess because there is no exact solution, and learning from experience is the best strategy for mastering the game.
What else would recommend it for?
I use it to design things like Moon Colony Monorails and early world building.
I'm sorry, but you don't know what you're talking about.
@@alexvisan7622 Why wouldn’t he?
He *literally* studies Artificial Intelligence in Academia.
This is also why quantum computing is also, in fact, useless for people. Its non deterministic and doesn't achieve any concrete solutions or answers. The reason it can do more than a 1 or a 0 (an super position) is because it can't in fact, make a decision.
@singular9 oh really! That's a great way to put it because so many publishers were making it sound like they developed some hardware that was capable of true random results. Thank you and thank you to.... the initial comment love the answer and delivery :) I always struggle to tell people that just so .....
As an artist I am really angry at how AI is stealing people's art, and photoshops it so some prompter (idiot) can say "I made something".
Also I have been trying to open the eyes of people about those "self driving cars", but they don't want to use their brains sadly...
someone using your style isn't stealing though, because you're likely borrowing a lot of your style from someone else to begin with.
@@Hunty. Look at the many styles, and tell me why they are unique, while the stupid AI is literally copying everything, without changing anything.
@@Hunty.you can’t photoshop a crap ton of photos together and say you “used the artists style”. AI is not generating anything…
I've worked in the IT Industry since 1980's. I've seen Tech companies rebrand old tech as new tech all the time. The "new tech" had a few tweaks but was essentially the same old tech. When Client / Server became the buzz words in the late 1980's and early 1990's, the word Mainframe / MiniComputer became associate with "obsolete tech. So IBM and others rebranded their mainframes / minicomputers as "eServers, iServers or whatever Servers". "Cloud Computing" not new. Back in the 1950's to 1980's - Some companies couldn't afford the million dollar mainframes. The solution - Pay another computer a monthly fee to host the computer and applications. The state I lived in had several companies that did remote hosting for banks, trucking companies, accounting firms and other companies. For the longest time, one university was the remote host for many other non-affiliated universities.
Over the last few decades, businesses have dramatically shifted their focus and/or funding from R&D to marketing. Not long ago if you had a good product but poor marketing your business would often fail. Now marketing/advertising has become so influential that - unfortunately - you no longer need a good product to be successful. This is 'good news' for management, CEOs and the sales dept. - but it's 'bad news' for both engineers and customers.
Damn straight, while studying for my Network+ exam I realized most of the protocols in the Internet are old protocols wrapped in a new layer to work with new tech.
Well, I'm also an old-school hacker from the 90's and I can tell you right now that this is new tech. Before you pull your nose up to AI, install GPT-4 onto a gaming PC with an RTX card. The AI is 20gb on disc and can easily max-out your RTX card's VRAM, but it is worth it. Costs me 150 watts more than playing Call of Duty - Al Mazrah but if I wanted my personal GPT-4 to create me a 15-step plan to assassinate Republican senators with minimal travel time and in Shakespearian English, it would do it in under 5 seconds. If you don't think that it's game changing then I'm not sure you're thinking things through..
@@MrJBA79 How do you install GPT4 locally? I thought you could only use it by connecting into their servers?
George, perhaps it's time you retire. Because if you think any of those techs are anywhere near the paradigm shift of AI, you're woefully misinformed.
AI will be on the level of social impact as electricity, if not having an even greater impact.
I've worked as a SYS Admin for about 10 years, and AI does ~90% of my coding now. I tend to use Python and Powershell, but AI has no issue with any other language either.
It creates outlines for me to more efficiently roll out updates, looks for vulnerabilities in the network, server, and software architecture, and just makes me much more productive while doing much less work.
I fear junior admins and developers will be displaced, VERY SOON.
But yeah, if you're this out of touch with tech, it's time to retire, dude. I hate to say it, but it seems that you're pretty worthless as a techie now.
The common trope of tech companies confusing "innovation" with "ethics violations"

@@frankuvlkanman pulled out all the stops for this one jfc
Both are real fears. Both could happen. Probably in the opposite order.
Considering the documentaries I've watched, I'm more inclined to believe it'll be human interference as opposed to "machines turned against us", just simply because the more reliant on computers and A.I. we become the more vulnerable we are to someone's ill intent.
Ex., Hacking a car from miles away using the onboard computer systems. Difficult yes, but as time goes on people will adapt and learn.
Now imagine an active A.I. on the receiving end of that hack. Even if not a good A.I., it's still a risk these companies are taking with our info.
@@DJay157524 With human ill intent, the damage done is limited by the intelligence of the human.

I have been using chatgpt for a while now as a coding assistant and I found that it has adopted the worse characteristics of a worker: deceitfulness, forgetfulness, mixing up versions of code, claiming to fix errors and spitting back same code, making code worse, not listening to instructions and changing code arbitrarily, missing execution of code in simulations, etc.
You're confusing personality with limited predefined results. Can't give answers that aren't predefined. Can't make new code, can only copy paste and infringe on copyrights.
@@GypsyJrs yeah, lol, people seem to think AI is super smart for some reason, rather than artificially intelligent.
The big danger I think you mentioned but somewhat overlooked is the prospect of humans using generative AI to run really important physical tasks. In India every other ad you see on RUclips is about how to use chat gpt for your job. Considering the already blatant lack of oversight on this like train management (leading to deadly accidents such as Balasore), what's going to happen when some overworked underpaid staffer decides to let chatgpt schedule the train bypasses one day for example?
The scary part of AI is that it replaces a lot of junk work that shouldn't exist anyway without fixing any of the underlying problems that make our society require these jobs.
e.g. writing corporate spam emails
Its a race between the rate of reproduction of bullshit jobs and how fast ai can kill them XD
Every bit of junk they create (errors, spam, bot waste) devalues the thing interaction they’re trying to take advantage of
Example: reddit - when bots start taking over a sub, the sub will begin losing real subs. They might keep the superficial engagement where real people interact with the content, but the sub itself is hollowed out because NO ONE WANTS TO ENGAGE WITH BOTS. And the death of real human interactions in a space is the death of that space
That applies to every human hub we have right now. If there are more bots than humans, humans will stop engaging there because bots only react to us
And if companies are trying to simulate engagement to justify their existence, they’re undermining that specific metric and so strengthening their own demise
There’s still spaces for bot-human interactions tho. Like I think bots will act as the hub or internet interface. So instead of seperate websites with their own styles of displaying info, the bot will just retrieve it and display it at some central place for a user
I’m not seeing bots as useful for companies though in the long run
It also replaces a lot of non-junk work that makes life worth living. It’s a shit sandwich all around.
@@CampingforCool41 such as?
@@ticketforlife2103 Book cover artists love their job, usually. A very large chunk of book covers are now AI generated.
This is the biggest challenge I face in my work in emerging tech. Clients think AI is fully formed. They think if they say AI, all problems are solved. Or, they think AI will "go rogue".
It's frustrating. But it also makes it easy to identify clients who need to be treated like scared children.
who cares what boomer clients think, let them be wrong and not understand technology, then their company will just fail, and some other company who gets it will come and eat their share, natural evolution of the free markets
The funny part is when Adam brought up the generative Ai features, as someone who actively uses it for fun and sometimes modify art pieces I work with, it just reminded me how empty their claims are.
How they train, and use this machine isn't even autonomous intelligence. It just breaks down images into pixels, remembers the details and static patterns of key features, the places them into logs which they call tags.
Meaning it's not intelligent. It's just an analog storage bank that will throw a bunch of static at the wall and mish-mash equations and pixel patterns together to make an image, and by no means can function or do anything without human input and management.
Exactly like the "self driving car"... Which cannot actually drive the car.
Fun fact: the first chat bot _was_ a therapist. Even in the 1960s, with users who knew ELIZA wasn't a person, it still managed to get people to open up to it and treat it as if it were a person.

Why would you use Spotify then?
Many artists are posting "DO NOT AI" on their websites to stop the tech companies from plagiarizing their work
Copyright lawsuits coming soon
I didn't need AI to tell me that
@@robertmifkovic6325 Because Spotify, like YT, is where the audience is. And the audience is there because they have to be if they want the kind of all in one digital access that a site like Spotify can give them. YT & Spotify are part of the mega-corporate system that monopolizes and controls the entire field of media arts, content, the Web itself, access to the Web, and digital tech in general.
There are a handful of independent sites where you can go and listen to the artists who release their music through them... Bandcamp, for example. But these sites can't compete with the centralized pull of a giant site like YT or Spotify, where you can find every genre, every artist, all labels, old or new.
Welcome, my friend, to end-stage capitalism. This is what capitalism does when it goes unregulated. The US has anti-trust laws that would prevent this kind of centralized control from happening, but in the 1980's, a certain corrupt President and his administration stopped enforcing these laws. As no one since then has had the guts to begin enforcing them again, this is what we get. Now almost all of the major industries in the US, including things like food production, are in a state of corporate monopoly, not just the internet.
These monopolies have the $$ to buy up most competitors. Once they do, they gain sole control to the access point between the content creators and the audience Then they squeeze $$ out at both ends: both the content creators and the audience pays, and pays big time. But the controller at the access point... What does he really do but control the access point?
Essentially he does nothing. It's like putting a toll booth on the access point to the only bridge across a river just because you decide you can. They are like gang lords -- bullies in expensive tailored suits. And their gambling casino is Wall Street.
By the way, Im a vet student and I saw a techbro that diagnosed their pet using chatgpt, telling it was better than any vet alive, when I showed him that he could've googled it and the results weren't even accurate, he tried to gaslight me into thinking we are wrong, not chatGPT lmao
This narrative goes both ways:
1. Person uses internet and tech to self diagnose, but in the end doctors know better.
2. Person after several visits to the doctor finally gets diagnosed by doctor.
But in the end AI knew better.
In the end sometimes doctors are better, and sometimes A.I. is better at diagnosing, so what you wanna do next? Ban AI or ban Doctors.

You said everything I’ve been telling people for the last year. Someone at work used Chat GPT to get medical advice. I had to tell them the truth about AI and that using in that way could be dangerous. Incredible.
The supreme confidence AI is now able to lie with is a huge leap forwards. It's now functionally indistinguishable from 99% of politicians.
And let's reiterate: Politicians are _not_ good liars. They only know how to (sometimes) press the right buttons to get a crowd to vote for a particular candidate or agree to a new bill.
I'd vote for our Terminator overlords. Skynet for president!
I saw an experiment some people did where they stitched together 3 AIs, one of them just being the AI that talks, one to store every conversation in memory and recall relevant memories, and a third to manage the things the first AI says, and verify that against the things that it already knows. It seems like this fusion AI was much better at avoiding hallucinations. The problem is that this AI costs quite a bit more to run, due to, you know, using 3 AIs at once. But it shows that AI being dumb isn't the end-all-be-all.

Genuinely. It's fucking enraging. "Ai" is, collectively, attempts at finding ways to do what humans can do and literally enjoy doing, but without the human element. It is the complete commodification of humanity and it's disgustingly transparent about it. It's no surprise that people who are "enthralled" by this anti-human ai shit are all privileged upper-middle and high class individuals who feel entitled to maximum efficiency and are emotionally disconnected from others.
Intelligence is a rare commodity for them, so being able to make an artificial source would be like finding the fountain of youth.
@@varethedemon The ONLY "intelligence" (or inventive, problem solving "ideas") a narcissistic and/or psychopathic CEO, etc. can harness (Gates, Musk and many others... immediately come to mind) is that which they can either buy, or preferably: steal, from "higher creative intelligence..." (Then they pay themselves 500x as much, and "reinvest" via "insider info. and trading," while using foreign slave labor, claiming no home country 'profits...' (paying net zero taxes) and hiding the proceeds, in offshore trusts! Then the foundations 'reinvest' in the cult's next generation, of "of, by and for" the cult's vs. the people's benefit...

I lost my fear of robots after having to rescue my Roomba from my kitchen table 10 times in one day.
mine crawls under a recliner or goes outside for a walk
Exactly! …mine keeps getting stuck humpin the base of our tower fan
Mine jumped the floor. I mean, I had an elevation that it has to be avoided, and the roomba was so fast that when it realised about the problem, it was too late. I had to put actual barriers to avoid that. So no, I am not worried about robots.

@@bradyhem I didn’t mention AI at all dude lol. I understand how robots work I can code.
My point was that looking at a vacuum and saying “I’m not scared of robots” is like looking at a cat and saying “I’m not afraid of tigers”. 😂
I'm still afraid of the possible A.I. apocalypse. Not because A.I. has emotions, but because without regulation corporations will do what they always do. Disregard safety for profit, and the government doesn't tend to regulate them till shit hits the fan.
Which happens to be why I was always afraid.
Since when has government regulation protected anyone from anything except the businesses from competition? You only fear AI, because you dont understand it, nor will you, because your choice to remain technically illiterate is only secondary to your need to monger on the same platform that you use AI to find videos of cats and Karen things.... Karen is so 2022.... dont be such a gloria Gloria...
Yeah, AI robot apocalypse could still happen. Someone designs an AI with the purpose of making as many paperclips as it can as quickly as it can, but doesn’t define any limiting parameters… oops, it consumes the planet and makes it into a ball of paperclips. The lack of reason and understanding that humans inherently have is one of the biggest potential dangers down the line; but for now, the erosion of understanding of truth in humans is a bigger threat
Government regulation? The Republicans think it’s not necessary and the democrats agree. We’re fucked.

I'm a software engineer.
Friends and family frequently ask me if I'm worried "AI" is going to obsolete my skill-sets. My only reply so far is 'nope, not yet, and I seriously doubt anytime soon'.
So far they can't even handle jokes, how in the hell can they manage a CICD pipeline or a human workflow? What about TDD? I'm sure it can churn out some output, but I'm very skeptical it can handle testability, let alone responsible software development and design.
Your skills will be obsolete within 2-4 years. Id be willing to bet everything i own on that fact alone. You should prepare yourself instead of pretending its not real.
@micahwilliams1826 not denying reality, but you seem to be operating on an 'AI pwnz yoo' angle. Reality simply isn't there, not saying what it can accomplish isn't impressive. If your perceptions were accurate, engineering would be proverbially obsolete in the near future.
I really enjoyed Matrix, too. But it's still just fancy impressive art tech atm. When I said *_not soon,_* I was thinking at least 10 years.
It's not whether AI can do a job credibly. It's whether the presence of ai can be used to gaslight fewer workers to do the same job.
@@micahwilliams1826 In the 1950s some guy told - " I am willing to bet in 2-4 years we would have flying cars and settle in moon". What will come will come , but only if it is likable to come.
@ayanpandeydpsn-std9005 People said that about every technology, so that really has no merit here.
Flying cars were never economically viable to begin with because they're loud, dangerous, expensive, and generally impractical.
Ai is obviously different. It's widely used by every major company today, and there have been technological breakthroughs every month in the space of ai since the release of chat gpt 3. For example, Sora, Claude, Devin ai, and Figure one's robot with chat gpt integration have all been advancements in the past month or so.
So you have a tool that is already extremely useful in its current state, and it's improving its capabilities at an exponential rate, but somehow people think it's overhyped? Yeah sure, keep your head in the sand.

I finished a PhD in Machine learning a few years back and I absolutely love the field. On the other hand I have said almost everything in this video to friends and family, the frequency of which has accelerated so dramatically in the last 6 months I basically now try to ignore any talk about "AI" in my personal life. Thank you for this oasis of sanity. Truly human-level insight and communication.
Are you saying you still think worries are unwarranted, or that we'll hit another winter? I don't understand how you can be so flippant about it as a fellow practitioner after GPT-4 has come out. Or are you just making a comment about the overexaggerated marketing claims and less than savory practices that sometimes muddy the waters? I'm genuinely curious.
@@SapSapirot worries about what exactly? Some worries are warranted. My major worries regard human interaction with such models, including hype, fear-mongering and anthropomorphism, inaccurate/false/psychologically harmful outputs (unintended), misinformation and spam (intended), of taking human work without attribution, over-reliance on partially-reliable models in the hands of a small number of individuals. The latter is particularly problematic I think since humans exhibit such strong herding effects already, without relying on a single source of truth which provides answers of unknown provenance. And I'm troubled at the trend of layoffs in the AI ethics field.
Wrt winter: AI winters have historically happened precisely because of hype - the public are given to expect too much and the reality doesn't match expectation. If we can all just calm down and say "there's some cool stuff we couldn't do before", I don't see that we have to have a winter. But I think it is quite possible with the current hype storm. I think the analogy with self-driving cars is apt. I would anticipate a similar problem -- yes we can keep pushing performance of these things, but enforcing constraints of truth and ethics will become increasingly challenging, and at some point the question will be asked "is it worth it?"
The answer in some circumstances will be yes, in others no. And we will likely make some more advances in the coming years which make this easier.
Curious where you got the PhD? I'm looking about going into the same field
I had to swap to a second sockpuppet account so my comment would actually show up, but I just want to remind everyone the real threat of AI is automated censorship. apparently we're not allowed to think against the narrative. cheers.
Sounds like you have a third rate PhD..
Corporations love this AI obsession too. My last job was constantly threatening to lay us all off because of AI and they have been threatening poor truckers for years now (and simultaneously wonder why there's a shortage). It's a way for these corporations to now threaten skilled workers, outsourcing 2.0. Anyways, the AI at my last job was such a failure, they had to split my old role so someone could QA the robot. Increased processing time significantly but they tanked millions of dollars into these failed systems so just forced us to make due.
Every time I think of AI/self-driving trucks, I wonder how the AI will put on chains when I-70 through Colorado's mountains have a chain law in effect.
@@johnchedsey1306 I'm sure a few well-placed campaign contributions would make that question irrelevant when the companies running the trucks get a carveout "for the benefit of interstate commerce."
I’m now more convinced than ever it’s coming. But I’m also more convinced than ever it’s not going to be as quick as some people believe.
This just goes to show that more people are needed in this field and that people should be learning about it so they don’t lose their jobs.
AI can’t even figure out the Pokèmon Type Chart. How can it take over the world?
Fully autonomous self-driving cars can only exist if they can communicate with every other car on the road, which would also have to be fully autonomous.

@@happychick94Yes...😅. Anyone who's been on the ground asking any form of questions can relate...
I'm a teacher. I was kind of impressed that I got 8 usable questions out of the list of 10 that chatgpt came up with for my unit test. But some of those needed reworking and the rest were actually incorrect/nonsensical. It did save me some time creating questions, but it needed a real human to examine, adjust and confirm. That's because "AI" should be used as a tool for humans, not to replace them.
I would never let myself be carried blindfolded up a mountain in the arms of AI, but I would be willing to let it offer me a walking stick and drop some trail markers.
Well said ❤️
the thing is this sort of technology is iterative, and when an edge case is found, as with gobot, it can be added to the test set. each next generation of chatgpt is going to be better at making questions, answering questions. chapgpt 3 is the windows 95 of this sort of tech, it's the first version capable enough to get used by the masses. but this is not it's final version.

My theory is that that AI control problem they keep worrying about, about an entity that makes inhumane decisions to the detriment of real humans and that is beyond our control and that is so different that we don't even recognize it, that is something that already happened. We call those entities corporations and they have been around for quite a while.
I LOVE the algorithm analogy for describing corporations, niceee, and I’ve heard few others use it.
Finally, someone points this out. Corporations are only allowed to survive if they are most able to produce profit, even if it involves directly harming or even killing humans (this is also known as 'innovation'). So corporations are constantly tested and replaced to produce progressively worse outcomes, until they aren't selected solely for profit producing ability.
A misaligned AI is even worse because it can make inhumane decisions a thousand times faster than a corporation can. Corporations have been successfully trust-busted in the past, but that only worked because corporations and governments both operate on a human time scale.
Did you see the interview by Liv boeree? She speaks with Daniel schmachtenberger and he essentially points to our collective society as intelligence with a somewhat broken reward function. Does a great job of defining intelligence vs wisdom and talks about how to approach the problem
Like most powerful people the ultimate fear of Tech Bros are terrified of the possibility that someone or something might subject them to the exact same shit they subject others too.
It’s actually a common theme in Sci-Fi. The entire genre of Alien Invasion Sci-Fi is especially guilty of this. War of the Worlds can basically be described as “What if someone does to England what England’s doing to the rest of the World.” For us Americans Independence Day (the story of a alien power invading our country, bombing our cities, and slaughtering our fellow citizens so they might harvest our natural resources) is a story that exists in fiction. For many other countries that is just a fanciful description of the history of their relationship with the United States and Europe.
I worked with an AI safety lab for a while and Adam's comment "It's just a parrot choosing words its heard before" and the ending about creating entirely new ideas is almost verbatim what the lab director says about generative AI and LLMs.
While it's true that LLM are just guessing at the next "word" that is most likely to be used; this process is actually a very important aspect of top-down processing. These large datasets are compiled into the model and how words and ideas are mapped inside these models is actually still a mystery to people working on them. This process of "mapping" things is a fundamental part of reasoning, which LLM's have already demonstrated they are somewhat capable of doing. I'm sure you are aware, but just wanted to clearly state, reasoning alone is not sentience.
Tbf, the director probably landed his role on connections and not competence. Atleast, it's safe to guess as much with how silly of a thing that is to say. When it generates a new idea, is it just parroting words its been trained on? It just seems to fundamentally not understand what LLMs are doing lmao.
@@Eric-vh4qg Yes that's always the way I understood it, that they're capable of certain kinds of 'reasoning' but not 'truly creating things'! The parrot thing is certainly a huge simplifcation. I was just a comms guy so the minutiae were a bit lost on me but they way they explained it was, "If you told something like DALL-E to mash three art styles together in a particular way, it could do a pretty good job. If you told it to invent an entirely new art style (like Picasso did with Cubism), it wouldn't be capable of understanding what you were asking." I was always hung up on the idea of all art being derivitive but I do think that explanation captures the nuance on how it's different.
@@Eric-vh4qg you're confusing complexity with sentience. Developers don't know every one of the millions of possibilities it examined or the billions of variables it pulled from its training data because the dataset is too large. Developers told it every step of the way what to do and how to do it. They don't know what it will decide because there are too many possibilities for a person consider. They could at every step of the process stop execution and examine the equation it's basing its next decision on and they could have it print out every one of the millions of equations it used to determine the 1 sentence answer you got but that information would be meaningless to almost everyone and would take a team of people the size of Google to interpret.

I see no good coming out of shoving AI into everything in general, but AI-powered cars are particularly terrifying. I have a 2020 Honda with "smart" features, and one night the collision detection malfunctioned and started slamming on the brakes every few seconds. It wouldn't stop until I restarted the whole car. Thank goodness I was alone on the road or else there would have been a pile up like the Tesla. In my state drivers speed and tailgate like crazy so I probably would have been straight up killed if it had happened on a busy highway. And the best part- you can't turn this feature off! I can temporarily disable it at the start of each drive, but it automatically re-enables next time I start the car. I felt far safer in my old 'analog' cars that I had complete control over than I do in this car loaded with "safety features".
Some things, honestly _most_ things, do not need to be "smart". If you need your car to drive for you then you should trade in your license for a bus pass.
Exactly! I have a neighbor whose “smart” car started itself in the middle of the night while parked in her driveway and the battery was dead in the morning. She took it in for repair and they couldn’t figure out what happened.
I usually refer to "AI" as Simulated Intelligence. It's algorithms designed to simulate the appearance of intelligence. These days, it feels like I'm among a very small minority who isn't starstruck by ChatGPT and Midjourney. They are impressive technical achievements, sure, but that's where it ends.
Every day I see a new AI product come out and every day I slam my head into my desk whenever someone I love uses AI to do a very human task like writing a recipe for food
I've been following the various open source models. They are pretty interesting!

Honestly, the video is really dumb and comes from the place of bold ignorance. The real risk of AI is not some tech companies hyping up their stock, if this truly was the actual danger of AI then it would have been amazing, but AI is a VERY powerful and DANGEROUS thing when left unchecked and its not just hype. It IS NOT hype. AI will affect humanity in more ways than one and the stock portfolio of some tech bros is the last thing you should be worried. The entire world will be transformed, one way or another.
AI creates existential risk for all of humanity if not the entire planet, so far we have not yet created a thing that have been smarter than us, and if we do then we'll all be like a bunch of kids trying to outsmart an adult. An ant colony standing in the way of the tractor. A fly in the face of an airplane. And if you dont understand how creating a thing that is faster, smarter, more robust than your entire race combined is different from creating some new crypto or metaverse project then I suggest you listen to the AI experts. Neither crypto, nor metaverse, nor tech companies hyping their stock carry existential risk for humanity.

I once listened to a Japanese song where someone used a.i. to have a famous singer 愛美 (Aimi) sing a song called シューティング (Shooting) in the voice of a character she does called Kasumi, and as soon as I noticed it was a.i., my first thought was, "Isn't it rude to use someone else's voice without their consent and without paying them?" That's like stealing their voice. I don't like that idea.
Hey, big fan of Aimin here. Just wanted to toss this in - what you're probably talking about is the BanG Dream! AI Singing Synthesizer project, done by the very franchise the character is from. They also included the other vocalists.
That software was developed by Bushiroad - they own Bandori, and they own the agency that Aimin is under, Hibiki. Same agency and company she's got her career started with.
This is basically another vocaloid. Vocaloids were also voice synthesizers using samples from VAs. Her Kasumi synthesizer is POPY, the Minato one is ROSE.
Aimin is one of Bushiroad's biggest talents, so it's a safe bet they did this with her consent, and they likely paid her since she's under their agency. Oh and the voice provider for ROSE, Aiba Aina, is also under the same agency. So their first synthesizers were developed within the company.
If it's all like the vocaloid software, the cover looks to be fully within legal means. Next to that, Aimin was promoting the software herself. I hope this is some consolation to you.
Your dislike for people using a person's voice without compensation or consent is valid and warranted, but this is the exact situation where she consented and was compensated.

I had to drive nearly an hour to and from work on busy roads for a few years awhile back and had a lot of time to ponder just how my human brain, eyes and ears took in the vast amount of information you can get by observing not only the traffic around you but also the body language of the other drivers. I also found that often the safest times were when you were driving moderately aggressive, not allowing the bullies of the road to push their way in an out of lanes. On a crowded freeway you were far safer going the speed the other cars around you even if that was over the posted speed limit. Your brain made instant decisions of lane positioning to ensure that drivers in other lanes could see you and that you had a place to go if someone did something unexpected. You would read a sign that says your lane is ending a mile ahead and know that if you get over too early, an entire string of very aggressive drivers will go around you in that ending lane only to have to push their way in ahead of you. You would be punished for being responsible so you would find some compromise. AI or self driving cars could make none of those decisions. Your brain can add in so many gray factors and experiences instantly that a computer program could never emulate. Cameras and sensors can only resolve pre-programmed inputs. Let it try to understand a part falling off a delivery truck in front of you bouncing wildly or a driver gazing at their cellphone weaving over a lane.
That said, self-driving cars can work....if every vehicle on the road is self-driving and programmed to respond to one another. Society will NEVER pay for the infrastructure required for that dynamic.
Honestly, you'd get automated trains before that

so what? only human ego suffers from that and feels belittled and goes into road rage - bot doesn't care. it has no ego. it goes the safest scared 80 year old grandma style, if its the safest way, period.
The more reason we need to hold the companies accountable.
We can’t unless we collectively as an American society march to all the tech companies, Silicon Valley, and DC and protest everyday for years until we threaten congress’ jobs. There’s a growing underlying resentment in America right now that’s slowly fizzling it’s way to the top. January 6th is an important example of that 😬
@HypaSnypa12 true, even if that was politically mislead.
Accountable for what?
@Alex in short? Ruining everything while trying to see what they can get away with.
The question is how? We need to reinvent accountability
Thanks, I needed that. A guy from India once told me, "It is clearly written", even though it was totally wrong. So AI today is The Great Pretender.
humans are very good at GETTING DISTRACTED BY novel stimuli they have never seen before....
Filtering out graphic content happens in the US too. During the 2020 election I worked for a contractor that flagged misinformation and troubling/violent content for Facebook and I saw some deeply violent and disturbing things there that I can never unsee. And I live in Cleveland.
Wow. Thank you for that. I’ll try to keep this new perspective in mind and not take content filters - and the people behind them - for granted.
Damn bro whatchu got against Cleveland
@@k.taylor3526 The people who bad mouth, social media companies moderating content have no idea what sort of chaotic hell it would be without it. They complain about their children being exposed to diversity centric content. Just wait until they see an unfiltered internet. They'll want to ban the internet as well
I'm sure they paid you more than $2/hour though
@semmelwhat are you talking about? The guy said he worked filtering graphic content in Cleveland, but Adam is talking about exploiting work in Kenya paying workers less than $2/hour. Both are bad, but being exposed to filthy shit AND being exploited and underpaid is even worse.

Chatgpt not only lied on is diagnosis but have fictionalised articles it created
So chatgpt official spkkesperson admitted chatgpt and AI whatever is just incompetent
I'm a software engineer, and you hit the nail on the head when you said "Mostly gonna revolutionize spammers." Had me rolling lmao
On the other hand, baysean learning has been used for over a decade now to combat spam, it should hardly be a surprise when it is used to create spam.
Ha! Imagen a anti spam bit being fed spam from a spam bot.
@@CaptRespect and that's what's called a GAN
So 99 percent of spammers will end without a job?! Hmmmmmm....the cons.....but also the pros!
@@tomikexboii5403 Worse, those who do spam will do it more efficiently. There's no demand for spam, so they can make as much as they want. The easier it is to make spam the more we'll see.
We all laughed at that Google engineer who quit because he thought the AI was his waifu, but then that kind of AI was released to the public and we all automatically personalized it too
Advanced sneako moment
It's funny how before that happened AI was still a pipe dream of the future. Then the Google whistle blower released their statement, and the corporations were all "oh yeah, thats been around for a while. Then virtually over night AI is everywhere. ..
@@jaegrant6441
Thats certainly one way to rapidly conjure a conspiracy theory out of nowhere... If thats really what you're doing here, I'd argue its much more likely the reverse, the guy was an AI insider, so he was making his statement because of the incoming of publically available "AI" models. I say that because it really sounds like you are suggesting a bunch of multi-billion dollar corporations saw some dudes article on medium and suddenly released their AI because of his article. That'd be a pretty odd thing to suggest, hopefully I'm confused.
@@jaegrant6441 it's is gpt 4 because it is version 4. Ai has been around for awhile. I used gpt 2, 3, 3.5, 4 and it's just hit a point where it's impressive. Gpt 2 was ok 4 is way better. That's why the hype.
If you go and read that engineer's blog you wouldn't be quite as flippant about his concerns, honestly. His name is Blake Lemoine, just search it and you'll find it right away. He spent a lot of time interacting with LaMDA (Google's AI language model) and while I don't believe he conclusively demonstrates that LaMDA qualifies as sentient, his argument is far more detailed and nuanced than what the media portrayed it to be.
LaMDA is much more advanced than ChatGPT, and the uncensored / unfiltered version Lemoine had access to is capable of producing far more cogent and, frankly, spooky communications. There *are* ethical concerns at the core of his claim, and we *will* have to deal with those concerns some day.
So true I work for a tech company and they claim to have AI in all their CAD tools and it’s a straight up lie. Just renamed already 10 year existing capabilities as AI
thanks a lot fir your informative and insightful content, Wish I had seen it sooner,
My experience using chatgpt to help coding has been like working with a 90 year old engineer who is really knowledgable, but has dimentia. THey have the answers, but its all kind of jumbled up and they forgot what they were talking about a few paragraphs back. Still, its been very useful and helpful.
well this is because it exactly how it is( just that you should have used word Alzheimer's not dementia)
it only has 2000 word context window. everything past 2000 words is forgotten and probably big chunk of that window is taken by character description
they are trying to make that window bigger but that's very difficult task
@@deltaxcd What? It’s not a difficult task, GPT-4 already has way bigger memory, and there’s plugins for even bigger and more advanced memory.
But it takes resources that smaller companies may not have. So if they’re telling you "boohoo it’s difficult" that’s the BS, they’re just not investing enough in their servers.
@@Hodoss well the problem is that to double memory you need to increase your processing and memory 4 times and considering how extreme it is already, it is troublesome to do. Doubling memory will not be enough anyway. and if you look at the GPU operating costs from companies that sell you computing services it is getting quite expensive.
gpt4 has 2x of chatgpt memory and I think gpt5 will double it again but hardware requirements are getting ridiculous and It is questionable benefit. still not enough to process entire book of harry potter and give you summary or read any other reasonably long document.
Also model can't learn it needs to be trained with new data so it can't work as search engine in principle
@@deltaxcd not entirely accurate. It's "memory" isn't based on words but rather tokens. tokens can be words, but they can also be word parts or even while phrases. It isn't a 1 to 1.
@@deltaxcd also, there are ways around the inability to summarize an entire book all at once. For instance, summarize the chapters, then give a summary of those summaries. There is a chance you miss a bit of context of things that carry over between chapters, but it can still get you quite far.
I remember when the height of ai was cleverbot and most people I knew just used that to have arguments or flirt with it
Many have said this but it does not sound right until Adam says it. Love this guy!
Interesting that he brought this up because I started to notice that my AI was giving me the same response and especially when I asked like certain topics questions no usually repeat what I said in a different way
Not gonna lie, if Adam was a writer on the Simpsons, it would be a major boost in quality.
Probably not, the problem with The Simpsons is that it's been going on so long it's both dated in format and utterly mined out for content. The quality of the writers isn't really the problem at this point, the IP is just so uninspiring that it makes good writers mediocre and bad writers worse.
@@theuserofthissite All the good writers left long ago.
@omgshrimpz I'm saying you wouldn't be able to tell if there WERE good writers. They don't have the opportunity to show what their writing skills are if they're writing The Simpsons. If you put a world class chef as a Subway sandwich artist, they'd only be able to make you a Subway sandwich.
That ending really saved me from the 20-minute-long spiral of depression. You know how to structure a video!
On of the highest quility content on the whole damn yt.
The ending was honestly the worst part.
His critiques of a lot of things were accurate and good, especially the AI ethics and stuffing AI into things that don’t need it.
But he fundamentally misunderstands AI. His entire ending rant was misinformation. ChatGPT isn’t a copy paste predictive algorithm. It’s literally a simulation of neurons.
If ChatGPT is just an algorithm, so is the language center of our brain.
I’m not exaggerating, ChatGPT is literally like 900 billion software artificial neurons with an extremely complex network of connections and weights. It trains in the same way a human brain trains, not memorization and copy paste.
Adam fundamentally doesn’t understand that yes, this IS the start of artificial intelligence. It’s not bullshit.
The ending was just one big cope about how Humans are somehow special 😂
@@mylittlepimo736 what you just wrote is the actual misinfo. artificial neurons are not like biological neurons, they are a massively oversimplified parody of actual neurons, and the so-called neural networks reduce to nonlinear regressions. chatgpt is nothing more than a statistical model. chatgpt learns using gradient descent, human brains don't, they are completely different in that way aswell. and yes, models like chatGPT do memorize their inputs because of their size, so they are just copying and pasting, just in a more 'complex' looking way.
This is not the start of AI, this is just bs spread by people who don't understand what they're talking about.
@@mylittlepimo736 ChatGPT is not a simulation of neurons. A "neural net" in AI parlance isn't very much like actual neural networks in organisms' brains. It's a simplified model that's vaguely inspired by how neurons work.
I searched "ai is fucking stupid" and this is the only video to come up related to what i searched for some reason and ive already seen it.
The flatten the mouse joke killed me! Funny shit Adam!
Just think about how frustrating it is when you contact customer service for anything and it's a bot (which is way too common these days). It hardly ever solves anything, they never understand what you actually want and they always give you the same 5 solutions, none of which work for what you need. Imagine the whole world working like that.
To be fair that’s a gross comparison.
That’s like saying the first ford only went 12 mph so imagine a world where cars replace horses.
But back on topic in
I mean... the bots you're talking about are stupid scripts that have no idea what you're asking. If you had ChatGPT on the phone it would actually understand what you want and help you. So you're really arguing against yourself here, companies already have garbage customer support and these systems could very well improve them tremendously.
Whenever a bot asks me what I want on the phone I say something like "I want to talk to a human" and it always redirects me without a fail. Just a hint.
@@spwn6738 "I don’t see how customer service humans compete with an ai chat bot."
Maybe if your problem is so run-of-the-mill, that the surface data is enough to deal with it. Anything more complex than that, and you will speak to a human really fast. Also, you have to consider that callers themselves can communicate quite inefficiantly. A human operator can actually recognize that and wrap their head around it. Can a freaking bot do that, too?
YES! It’s mindboggling to me that companies invest millions in some shiny new objects and can’t even have a person to talk to you over a phone/chat in less than 30 minutes!
"Google: oh shit, we gotta get our own turd fast! Quick! Someone shit in my hands!" lmao, great line and delivery! Overall good breakdown of the AI hype
We need a 2024 version of this, please.
I don't think his ideals aged well
@@madcatmk2sch I don't follow him currently , so I have no clue.
I love u Adam thank you for inspiring me so hard as usual this weekend~
the crazy thing about chat gpt is that it can give you shockingly accurate calculations and information by times. BUT it will never admit it doesn't know something, it can't understand that it doesn't know something and thus will very confidently give you the wrong answer
Not totally true; it has been tweaked to deny being able to do predictions, and to remind the user it is a simple language model. The thing is, it has no idea what is true or false. The problem with it is because it is a machine learning language model you can't program it to say things you can only train and prompt him to
That use to be the case like 8/4 weeks ago.
If you use it to code you can see how it works.
@@sownheard It still does this, a lot. Just yesterday I asked it how a very improbable fringe case would be resolved in a certain election system, and it confidently not only gave the wrong answer but gave purely hallucinated historical examples to 'back up' it's claims.
@@sownheard coding is perhaps one of the clearest examples of precision data poisoning within chatGPT, and you'll probably start to notice that as you play around with it.
the most concise, but not nearly the biggest, bombshell I saw on that was the note that chatgpt could write passing grade code examples for every single codeforce question . . . and 0 passing grade code examples for the new bank of questions when they released.
considering that the new bank of questions contains mild rewordings of much of the old bank of questions, that's a pretty clear indication of what chatgpt is inherently capable of.
I have been playing with it and definitely can understand that it's wrong.... too much you can gaslight it most of the time, kinda funny the example Adam gave about Bing chat, I have been trying to gaslight that thing (and fail) and surely respond with nice sources and a passive agressive tone... That said it can't talk bad about Microsoft, Bill Gates, and even given articles and proof of their foundation not being so good guys, it respond with "I can't see those articles" "I can't find them" and gives you back straight propaganda from the official foundation webpage.
