I still haven’t seen a use of AI that doesn’t serve state or corporate interests first, before the general public. AI medical diagnostics comes the closest, but that’s being leveraged to justify further staffing reductions, not an additional check.

The AI-captcha wars are on, and no matter who wins we lose.

Not necessarily.

AI is helping me learn and program C++. It's built into my IDE. Much more efficient than searching stackoverflow. Whenever it comes up with something I've never seen before, I learn what that thing does and mentally store it away for future use. As time goes on, I'm relying on it less and less. But right now it's amazing. It's like having a tutor right there with you who you can ask questions anytime, 24/7.

I hope a point comes where my kid can just talk to a computer, tell it the specifics of the program he wants to create, and have the computer just program the entire thing. That's the future we are headed towards. Ordinary folks being able to create software.

When googling something, append -site:reddit.com

I appreciate the mostly benign neglect we had for awhile. Now that they're paying attention it's just all bad. Or would be, if I was there. HA.

That’s just for small players. Big corps probably been doing it for years.

Yeah this isn't new.

Ever wonder why you are such a fan of shitty played out franchises?

[–] owatnext@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

I was about ready to downvote out of pure annoyance lol.

If only people moved to an open and federated platform. I mean I don't have to say that I hate reddit since I'm here but still whenever I Google a problem reddit answers are one of the most useful places. Especially about something local.
