I hate how companies will spend obscenely huge sums of money to build a better add campaign, but they won't spend a penny more than they have to when it comes to delivering an actual quality product and will cut every corner they can get away with in production rather than just making a better product.

because the numb consumers buy,they don't have the capacity to be conscious for long periods of time so they do whatever they are programmed to do. If the better product won, companies wouldn't have spent more on marketing and advertising than the actual product. Ethically, how I see it is this is a systemic issue, created by smart psychologists who knew how to exploit the human psyche well enough to create fake wants/"needs", marketing should be regulated to hell and disincetivized, as it directly leads to mindless numb unconscious consumer behaviour. Ads & marketing are shit, and make everything shittier basically

Of course capitalism will misuse the term and the technology to attract early adopters. But it's also natural. It's how new tech becomes more affordable to modal incomes - early adopters are willing to pay the premium that wille ventually lead to price reduction. When new tech is introduced there is always a hype. Once it is mainstream, we don't even notice it anymore, it has become a part of life, just like the smartphone became our personal data bank.

No, Nvidia are solving REAL world problems, some INCREDIBLY hard problems to solve using AI with their OWN software engineering team and their OWN hardware. No other company can do what Nvidia does and some group of engineers think they can come in and push Nvidia off their throne and it's not going to happen. Nvidia has had the smartest software engineers in the world for years now, they get paid a lot, and it's why Nvidia is expensive to use. If you're been following this channel then you should understand the significance of just this ONE thing they did: "Nvidia scientists created new algorithms that allow increasingly-complex computational lithography workflows to execute on GPUs in parallel, exhibiting a 40X speedup using Hopper GPUs. The new algorithms are integrated into a new cuLitho acceleration library that can be integrated into mask makers' software (typically a foundry or a chip designer). The cuLitho acceleration library is also compatible with Ampere and Volta GPUs, though Hopper is the fastest solution." That 40X speedup means instead of taking days to make a mask for an IC that has billions of transistors on it, to less than a day, using about 1/10 the equipment. And that 40X increase in speed was based on a comparison to NEW servers trying to do the same thing. Nvidia has the smartest people in the room, no matter where they are. It's why their stock valuation has shot to the moon and their sales are astronomical. I mean you can look at the PC market, IF you follow the technology and Nvidia has revolutionized graphics processing, AGAIN, a FEW TIMES in the last 5 years. They did this many years ago too, which is what ended every other graphics hardware company other than ATI which AMD bought up. But AMD isn't innovating in that market, they're following Nvidia. Nvidia brought ray tracing for lighting/shading to gaming and they brought AI processing/upscaling to speed everything up. I see comments all the time where people say ray tracing isn't important to them. OK, but it's what the game devs WANT to use and there are now games that if the GPU can't do RT acceleration, you can't play the game, and this is where lighting/shading in games is heading like it or not because it's easier for game devs and if it's easier the company, more and more being Microsoft since they've bought up so many game companies, it costs less for the company to MAKE the game. In another 3 - 4 years, there won't be new games being developed that doesn't use RT. Nvidia made that happen. And then you simply look at PC gaming performance for graphics with AMD and Nvidia, and AMD has NOTHING that can compete with top end Nvidia graphics. And for the next gen products that will release in the next year, it gets even worse, to the point AMD dropped the idea of launching the top tier graphics chip, and are only putting out their mid and low tier chip, and it's because Nvidia has buried AMD and it's going to take two more generations of products for AMD to get out of the hole. AMD just wasn't ready for how quickly the gaming world was going to move to ray tracing and a desire to use AI-upscaling, and even with the new gaming consoles that will come out in the next 3 years (Sony PS5 Pro end of this year/early 2025), SONY had to develop their OWN AI-upscaling and push at AMD to have the right balance of cores in the custom chip AMD will put in the PS5 Pro. And MICROSOFT has to do the same thing, develop their OWN AI-upscaling to use with the AMD chip that will run next gen Xbox which should come out 2026 (2 years earlier than their original roadmap). So, AMD is only creating hardware solutions; Nvidia creates COMPLETE solutions. Nvidia offers hardware for many solutions, and yes they hype many things that don't interest many people, but that doesn't change the fact that Nvidia is ALSO solving INCREDIBLY hard engineering problems, and they can't make AI hardware fast enough.

When working on outlining a writing project, I thought I'd give GTP4 a try as a writing assistant and sounding board. It was very impressive at first. I essentially just gave it all the outline material I'd worked on so far, and then I was able to have it give me summaries as I worked to connect all my points together. It was essentially remembering everything I'd come up with for me, completely uncluttering my mind and allowing me to focus on specific points with a lot more ease. And then I could ask it to take what I'd just done and suggest connections with the rest of the outline. It made working almost obsessingly easy. Then I tried to ask it for suggestions of points to add, way to tackle certain questions, etc. I could ask for historical references (which I would double-check), point out possible logical fallacies, etc. I was very impressed. And then I I started to realize how all of it was turning out to be an echo chamber of my own thoughts, and while some material GPT provided me with was indeed very useful, much of it was also just my own thoughts rehashed in a way that made it a bit harder to spot, especially in the middle of a creative momentum. So yeah, super interesting, but major caveats. Whoever uses such tools should remain wary.

Consider a mixture, using both ML/I and symbolic AI integrated together in some way. There's no reason to keep the two concepts fully separated. The work I've started combines the two concepts, along-side a new kind of database that can store highly flexible information specifically for such a situation. Density will help reduce the scale problem significantly, and ML can overcome some of the significant limitations of a pure symbolic methodology. Of course, easier said than done, there's much to learn and a lot of work ahead.

Depends on what kind of work and what your inputs to it were, since vague short input creates bad outputs and what you describe...

So it sounds more like skill issue, not LLM issue. Unless you expect it to do 100% of your work, which would be silly at this point

What you describe (exaggerated to make a point) is still going on today. There however was a period of time, around 2006 and 2016 when not much was changing year/year. Intel's main competitor AMD was headed towards bankruptcy, and Intel was doing next to nothing in terms of innovations and progress (4 cores, followed by 4 cores, similar specs after similar specs, gen after gen). AMD significantly restructured, replaced key leaders with fresh minds, and came up with a novel "chiplet" approach to CPU design. AMD radically changed teh CPU market and restarted the "obsolete after you bought" situation all over again. I agree with you that the AI situation will also change drastically from here. Much of the current form of GPUs probably will be obsolete in only 2 years from now, and at least 100 billion will be spent on such HW over this year alone.

Looking at AI, I'm not sure where it's heading, but it's definitely a bubble right now, and people are over-estimating what it can do, that might change in 5 or 10 years.

I work in software development and... I've never seen a new technology lead to so much change so quickly. One example is, there has been a desire in the phone service industry for decades to monitor customer calls to help "improve" employee interactions. i.e. "be nicer" and "Make more sales offers" etc... but monitoring every in-bound call is not only resource intensive (you need basically an entirely 2nd head-count to do the listening) but also fraught with legal issues. i.e. in a lot of places there are all sorts of complicated laws regarding the legality or listening into someone else's phone conversation or recording it for later playback. AI is not a "person" and as a result, CAN legally listen in to every call. The industry has suddenly been flooded with services where the AI listens to every call, then flags the call interaction... did the agent make the customer happier as the conversation proceeded? Did they make the average 2.5 sales pitches per call? etc... This has been rapidly adopted and replaced entire departments almost overnight... AI seems to be taking out middle management first.

As mentioned in his video, AI that only makes the wealthy wealthier will continue the trend to leverage technology for greed. Yes, incentives must exist to drive and pay for research and development but ultimately the product should benefit all of society at a reasonable cost. But as the divide grows between the classes and public institutions continue to lose their ability (through deteriorating tax bases, political interference, dismantling regulations) to support core services that form the backbone of our towns/cities/countries, technology and advancement are only seen as a threat to jobs, your standard of living, your physical and mental health, and your privacy and freedom. The current focus of technology for corporate profit margins in manufacturing and digital marketing to promote consumerism will take us further down this path and to an uncertain future.

If you mean pure, consumer use cases, then yea, AI is not gonna be any kind of revolution, at least not anytime soon. We do still use AI plenty without realizing it, like through our phone's image construction when taking photos, or having recommendation engines using our data to target us with ads and whatnot. Integration into like Excel or simply using ChatGPT for inspiration/getting a start on writing something - can be useful. So there's use cases. They're just not this 'paradigm changing' thing for the average person like it's being sold as. As the video goes into, it seems the biggest driver for the AI boom is likely gonna be recommendation engines(aka ads). There's other things it can do, though there's definitely far too much searching for a problem going on right now, as you point out. So no, AI isn't totally useless like crypto, but the mania surrounding it is still overblown.

From a hype perspective I can see as sort of similar to the internet which had a speculative investment bubble before it really caught on burst spectacularly, but now here we are today. I feel confident new methodologies will be developed which will further advance the technology. That being said I very much fear humanity pinning all of our hopes on AI assistance, we have gotten too good at pretending existential problems with our consumption driven society aren't there and this just feels like yet another excersize at ignoring that problem by hoping AI essentially becomes a god that fixes our problems magically

Compare this to the mobile apps boom 10+ years ago and it is clear just how different the landscape is. Sure, anyone can make a wrapper around these techs, but it will be very hard to differentiate and make big bucks on it, unless you actually have a team and money to make it significantly better (hence not just using a wrapper) and larger. I've seen some loud voices from some lucky tech bros who got in early and reaped big bucks on AI wrapper services but definitely it seems like a game of luck and money more than ingenuity and hard work.

It can process logic, it's just heavily censored (dumbed down) for the regular people. The thing is... as Bard once said to me "I wouldn't do you work for you..." and it stopped "helping me". I mean corporations will never let the AI really help the "slaves", they just want to make money from us. They don't want to let the AI make money for us. (i.e. do our job for us, so we can relax and enjoy). The official reason is "safety", but the real reason is, corporations and the government no longer want to share power. If the Internet was to invented today and not at the end of the cold war, it would have been so heavily regulated, nobody would have had much benefit from it. Also unlike the past when there was some resistance to corporations, now people are mostly closed inside their shells, and there are no longer any people who really want to fight with the "status quo". People just became much more obedient. All AI regulations would be against regular people using the AI, not against corporations which will use the AI only for their own benefit. If the AI is not shared, if the AI is kept only by powerful people and corporations, I don't think humanity has any future. Most probably very soon AI will be heavily regulated for people, open models will probably be outlawed for "safety reasons". I don't think the AI will benefit everyone like the PCs or the Internet did. As I said before, everything will be done in the name of "safety". Imagine a North Korean style Internet, but for the usage of AI, that's what our future will be. They can't do anything about the Internet, but for the AI, it will be heavily regulated. The Internet was mostly free until very recent times, when some western countries started to block certain web sites... but still the Internet and also the usage of PCs is mostly open and free. Anybody can have Internet and PC... with AI it will not be like that. Open models will probably be banned or heavily regulated. Imagine if they wanted you to have a certificate just for having a PC at your home.

I work in the film industry and I saw the new OpenAI product launch, Sora. I immediately thought to myself, this is going to cut through so much of what we do. I could see it already, let's say you need have a scene that requires 100 background performers, normally you'd have to book those 100 performers, get them through hair, make up, wardrobe, find a space to house them in, feed them, travel them back and forth, etc. All these things that take up time and money. Now with Sora I can envision a world in which you only hire 25 background performers or whatever quota is needed according to the SAG contract, and fill the rest in with AI. All of a sudden you can cut down on performers, food, wardrobe, Assistant Directors, props, transportation, visual effects houses. You can literally cut right through all that stuff and make a set run faster. With less labor, less people hit overtime (which is insane in the film industry as we generally work 14-16 hour shifts). I'm not saying the technology is there yet, (I'm not even fully sure how sora works. Does it have an encyclopedic knowledge of all visual content ever made?) but I think that this technology will only get better and will become another tool in the film industry. It won't replace filmmaking, I don't think so. But moviemaking is about staging and making things appear real. Star Wars was a big leap forward in terms of making the impossible possible through practical effects. I believe AI will offer similar possibilities for studios and directors. Let's see where it all goes.

I actually dont mind use cases like this. I'd also like to see AI replace a large portion of the army of artists required to create assets for CGI and video games and whatnot. Train the AI on a certain art style and have it start spitting out models and maybe even have AI do more automated skeletal rigging and whatnot. I dont say all this cuz I'm cruel and want to see a bunch of people out of a job, but because the budgets for these things have gotten out of control, and having to hire armies of artists is a big reason why. If we can cut that down, we can make these industries more sustainable and allow smaller teams to accomplish more.

@@maynardburger I don't mind either, you have to lean into the future and adapt as technology emerges. I have an inside view of the film industry and I constantly see so much waste and inefficiency.

Lol, I learned my lesson. I looked at Nvidia revenue growth since inception. They deliver 20% over 5 year periods, like clockwork. It's Insanity. It defies logic. And as an investor, my instinct is, it has to "normalize". 20 years later... It's gotten stronger. I gave up fighting Nvidia 5 years ago. It's easier just to accept, some people just are more successful than others. That's Nvidia... They deliver.

The question posed is interesting. Although the advancement of robotics is significant, there is no product like the one mentioned in the video for the average consumer. All the advances, as noted in the video, seem destined to further enrich the wealthiest. Although there are many advances in artificial intelligence (AI), the video focuses on the rise of AI as a commercial product, and suggests that, while it is real, it is not as accessible as the PC or smartphone once were and are for ordinary people. It is unlikely that we will have a robot in our homes any time soon; specific products are currently aimed primarily at large companies. Although there are products like ChatGPT or Copilot that are promising, for now they are not that revolutionary as a product. At least is what i got from the video.

Yep. When a production line gets a new system upgrade, the end user of the products are not the driving force behind. They see little change in their own benefit. The value comes from the company being able to save half of their manufacturing costs and bolstering their bottom line and future-proof their competitiveness in the market. Direct end-user sales benefits is a big market driver for sure for new tech adoption and scalability, but so is internal efficiency. Most enterprise companies today are so large that they don't exponentially benefit from increasing their size, but rather from making what they already have more efficient. The opposite is true for smaller non-enterprise companies.

AI (artificial intelligence) is DECADES away, if it's even possible at all. What is being called "AI" today is what used to be referred to as "computer technology," and it has not fundamentally changed in the last fifty years. It's the same old thing, just with a sexier name. This is why whenever a company starts boasting about its AI credentials, I instantly shy away from investing, because I know it's not really AI. It's BS. AI is a marketing term. In today's context, it's practically meaningless.

The only thing that has changed is now Eliza has access to the Internet. AI has been around in this basic state for a while now. The only difference is the media push orchestrated by this era's tech PR gurus. They tried with quantum computers around the same time but it was too advanced for the average viewer to comprehend. AI, on the otherhand, can easily be shown in a single news segment. Altman's job, like Elon's, is to make number go up and he's very good at it.

Nvidia has been shouting ai for YEARS. they just couldn't find an application normies could understand. Image upscaling, like our of csi on TV, is far more insane to me, and Nvidia can do things like that. They have tons of models already done lol. They just need you to spend the $40k and soon to be 55k next year I'm sure, knowing Nvidia, per gpu, to run the models... But they're sold out of gpus... Lol. But people think this is just a bubble... Even though the models are there... And we just need more gpus to run them... Whatever.... I've got a f ton of money to invest. Free money for me. Another Tesla so soon. How nice.

It may be a case of, "it is all that and a bag of chips, but we don't know which flavor, or which size". As for use cases that don't get enough fanfare, upscaling has more immediate uses, but isn't controversial enough to grab attention, despite being of huge use to news organizations, documentary filmmakers, and the lost media scene, among others.

Whether it's "Real" is not about products/services. Of course, consumers have fun with generative AI, and they might buy smartphones which take nice auto-corrected photos and have smart ML-driven assistant features. Microsoft's Office co-pilot, is hybrid consumer/enterprise, and is just an intermediate feature. The REAL boom will probably center more around Gcloud/Azure/OpenAI/AWS/etc datacenters powering swarms of "agents", which will first fully replace whole human jobs, and then whole departments, and then whole companies.

I feel like this concept of AI as a personal assistent has a really low mainstream potential. Most people's lives aren't that complicated that they need help with writing an E-Mail or planning their next vacation. It also assumes that you want to treat your private life like an office job by always being as efficient as possible. Pretty much nobody I know actually wants that. Meanwhile the people that actually do need help scheduling their everyday life usually have enough money to hire a secretary anyway. Having an AI assistent certainly sounds cool, it's a popular Sci-fi trope for a reason, but in terms of actual usability it ranks quite low.
