  • Glad the subheader is "Imagine what happens if jobs actually start disappearing."

    There's just still not a lot of evidence that LLMs could take a substantial number of jobs away, unless your job is spam, advertising or propaganda. Corporations are blaming AI but there just isn't the evidence to support the idea that those fired workers are anything other than normal downsizing (that conveniently help fit the narrative and boost the stock price).

    IF an AI gets invented that actually begins making humans unemployable, the economy as it exists wouldn't be able to withstand it ...who would pay for things if there are no jobs? Why provide goods and services for money if nobody can pay for it? Even being a billionare would be pointless because if everyone else's economic value is zero they can't be compelled to do anything with your worthless slop money.

  • Sure but still, like, for what?

  • But what is the DisplayPort plugged into on the PC? Extremely few motherboards and GPUs support CEC in my experience...

  • Very cool, what hardware are you using that supports CEC?

  • From the moment I herd that Google was going to transition to LLMs my first thought was that it was their way of finally defeating adblockers.

  • Does anyone actually know the stated purpose of this project? It surely can't just be for LLMs but I haven't been able to find anything.

  • The job apocalypse is absolutely not something to forget.

    Honestly wondering... why not? So far there is no evidence that an LLM can replace a worker of any kind, and all layoffs attributed to "AI" have not proven to be anything other than typical layoffs attributed to corporate greed.

  • There are nice friendly frontends for this, Yunohost or CasaOS spring to mind but might be too simplistic if you already are familiar with Docker.

  • And yet with The Doctor the cursing flows so naturally I have a hard time believing it wasn't in the original broadcast...

  • yes massa sorry massa

  • She definitely did lol watch the full video, she's totally surprised.

  • I wish more people would understand that LLMs are "taking" extremely few jobs away. The "chatbots can do a real job" narrative is just there to bump up the stock prices.

    A real AI would incur massive job loss, but the job losses we're seeing now being blamed on AI are really just the same normal oligarchal greed at work.

  • At least the internet had broad utility, just wasn't ready in 1999 to support e-commerce on that scale. It is now. I can't imagine a future where LLMs are similar. Even a theoretically perfect LLM is not like, actually knowledgeable.

  • She gets booed, regroups, then says "two years ago AI wasn't a part of our lives" and then gets cheered for it 🤣

  • Radio to television is generous, IMO. LLMs aren't a path to AGI or even particularly useful to most people.

  • Thanks I just assumed everyone on Lemmy donates to 404. Someone else posted the video in this community too. Pretty hilarious.

  • Oh I thought you were just joking around so I was too. Yes it would suck to be unemployed.

  • I have to assume workplace burned down makes one eligible for unemployment...
