I can still flip the breaker, checkmate AI.

who gave you the keys to the data center?

[–] TheOSINTguy@sh.itjust.works 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

You dont need keys if you can throw a brick through a window.

Why did you bring a griddle into my data center...?

As long as we control the power we have a chance.

I can still beat an AI at the 100 meter dash though. Suck on that AI.

/Also, I can climb stairs, I bet Chat GPT can’t do that!!

Boston dynamics bots also make use of AI, or at least machine learning. I wouldn't take that bet if I were you.

It doesn't have to, it'll just hire some schmucks on Fiverr to do what it can't.

Mark my words, in the near future you WILL be encountering people whose marching orders came completely from an AI.

And where will it get the cash? An analogue of OnlyFans.

Watch, it'll happen.

Edit: grammar

[–] greybeard@lemmy.one 1 points 10 months ago

That was basically the plot of the later seasons of West World. Right down to the AI using Fiverr to get its work done.

If I dash upstairs 100 meters with ChatGPT open on my phone, does it make a sound?

Computers have been beating humans at basic tasks since the beginning. Isn't that kind of the point?
