We're Living Through the AI Utopia and Can't See It

> When one of Google's own engineers went public saying LaMDA was disturbingly capable, he was dismissed as confused and then fired. Blake Lemoine claimed that it was sentient. That's quite a stretch from "disturbingly capable"

Everyone knows this is all bullshit, right?

Da, comrade, the utopia will be achieved whether the unwashed masses want it or not.

Is this available on a non-broken platform? Twitter site just says „oops something went wrong“. And nitter doesn’t load anything either

The reason it's free is not because they want you to have it for free. It's heavily subsidized limited trial period. The limits are still generous enough to be useful, but that might change when the need for profit gets bigger.

We need a moratorium on prometheus and prometheus-related metaphors, references, and general self-aggrandizing hobgoblinery. It was worn to the bone by 2015.

Borderline delusional.

I feel this, and simultaneously something strange with it This is something incredible that has developed and I feel like I am creating less software with it than before AI, not sure why, and although I know these tools are available 24/7 (besides rate limits) I still find myself going to them less than I would think as relates to their usefulness I think that may be because of personal reasons but also because the bottleneck here might be motivation or something: what should I even create? I can complete a backlog of things I haven't gotten to, but still... what next? There's also something of a lack of people using AI according to some old chart (probably more people using it now, but how intelligently?) - it's still maybe a tool a lot of us don't know how to use. It's maybe like a superpower dropped at our feet but without a manual on what to do with the superpower (even though you can ask the superpower what to do with the superpower and for tools to learn to use the superpower). Anyway, it's been strangely not what we expected at all so far
