You really are religious about AI aren't you? You keep on running of on how wonderful it all is and what beauty it will bring, how it will change our lives, and, and...
And when some people on this forum state that, at the moment it is predominantly marketing, you run of again. That rattles my cage. I'm not trying to win an argument, I had hoped to reason with you, and failed.
And don't use stock prices to prove your point, it works against you. Stock prices in 99% of cases represent the underbelly of the stock brokers, not the real value. Yes it says Nvidia is making good money with their custom graphics cards, but that is how marketing works. It doesn't mean it has intelligence, just that a lot of people want AI, and want it now. (They too want their MTV, to paraphrase a well know farm hand on this forum
)
To explain why I called AI 'just optimized processors using very clever algorithm' (I missed an s there...)
en.wikipedia.org
Artificial intelligence (
AI), in its broadest sense, is
intelligence exhibited by
machines, particularly
computer systems. It is a
field of research in
computer science that develops and studies methods and
software which enable machines to
perceive their environment and uses
learning and intelligence to take actions that maximize their chances of achieving defined goals.
Note that I don't agree using the word intelligence for computers, see the bingo reference below.
Where 'learning' refers to:
en.wikipedia.org
Machine learning (
ML) is a
field of study in
artificial intelligence concerned with the development and study of
statistical algorithms that can learn from
data and
generalize to unseen data, and thus perform
tasks without explicit
instructions.
Which state 'statistical algorithms'. No magic, just very clever people telling computers with custom (Nvidia) processors, a lot of memory and very fast storage, to process an S-load of data, hence my reference to a resource hog, as it requires a lot of compute power and therefor cooling and energy.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buzzword_bingo (aka bs-bingo)
Buzzword bingo is generally played in situations where audience members feel that the speaker is relying too heavily on buzzwords or
jargon rather than providing relevant details or clarity. Business meetings led by guest speakers or notable company personalities from higher up the pay scale are often viewed as a good opportunity for buzzword bingo, as the language used by these speakers often includes predictable references to arcane business concepts, which are perfect for use in the creation of buzzword bingo cards.
Where AI in itself is THE buzzword atm.
Last night I saw a documentary about the elections in Indonesia being won by a general with an questionable history at best, thanks to AI.
So it seems, AI isn't just marketing any more...
I somehow had block this message from my view, maybe because of my skepticism about AI. So thank you
@Dashmellow, for clearing that up.
"There are many ‘important and urgent risks from AI,’ not just the risk of extinction; for example, systemic bias, misinformation, malicious use, cyberattacks, and weaponization,” Hendrycks continued. “These are all important risks that need to be addressed.”
And fear exist this will happen with other elections this year too. (America, Europe, ...)
BTW: Regarding AI in the hospital where I worked. 10 years ago such research was done as well, with similar results. So yeah, I am a bit skeptical.
