True, nothing is perfect.
If I need a life saving operation and given the choice of a Harvard graduate at random or a random person in time Square... I know who I would choose
OK the person from time square but that's probably just my depression speaking.
This is a case where I wish we didn't have a "jury of peers". Most people don't even know dompemine is a thing or it's effects. Most people don't know the effects a disfunctional family can cause.
No, I don't understand them completely either. There are experts in these fields who have done valid research and run well documented studies to better understand these topics. They are who should determine this. No YouTube videos or a blog post don't count. I mean actual real studies that stand up to scientific rigor.
I feel that YouTube/facebook played a part. But I want that to be true due to my inherit bias. I have no data or numbers to back that up. Experts probably do. There have likely been done studies about these things.
I know know there is a thing called a Skinner box but that was over 50 years ago and I'm sure we know more. That said I'd bet the average person on the street doesn't even know that and shouldn't be determining this case.
Ask your McDonald's worker for something to release some dopamine after a long work day, based on their answer do you want them setting precedent on this topic?
Look, I know I am no longer young and hip but calling me a dinosaur hurts my feelings...
I've said it in other similar articles, it depends on your definition of "Ai". Marketing is insisting on "powered by Ai" on all sorts of products but that doesn't mean llm. Some "Ai" may be useful, like the old on-star system on some cars. They had multiple inputs to determine if a crash occurred and alert emergency services if it did... Could be classified as Ai.
Your toothbrush example could be useful, if just finished cleaning cycle and battery level below 20% and not on charger, emit a beep to alert user to charge tooth brush. More advanced, and I doubt these are the case but would be cool and useful. If the could detect blood during a cleaning cycle, alert user to contact a dentist for possible gum disease. Or detection of a new/growing hole in a tooth based on the defection of the bristles and alert user to see a dentist for possible cavity.
Without a solid definition of "Ai" this is all marketing talk. Basically all "Ai" takes multiple inputs and then generates an output based on those inputs. If you say it must generate it based on a llm, then what about the image generating ai? If you say it must have natural language as in an input most of these "Ai" products don't qualify unless they expect you to say "ok, sonic care end cleaning cycle" with a mouth full of toothpaste and water. Technically an argument could be made that a check engine light on a car is "powered by Ai".
The only definition which goes against this and I would agree to is a system where given an identical set of inputs the output is not always(or ever) the same. If that's the case then I am going to start making "Ai" powered lava lamps...
People said the same time with windows 8...and ME
I didn't consider direct x to Xbox connection but it makes sense... After the initial release it's insane. You want to be next generations idea of gaming, make it understandable to a non-gamer cause they are likely buying it. Hell Nintendo entertainment system vs super Nintendo entertainment system... Which is better? Which will make your granddaughter or grandson happy?
Years ago when I was living with my parents, my mother was at work, I worked nights. She called me during the day and this was the conversation :
Mom: I need a favor, go into my bedroom, get my cell phone and bring it to me.
Me : you are are work right?
Mom: yeah
Me: you can't make personal calls at work so you must be on break right?
Mom: what? Just bring me my phone!
Me: if you are on break, how are you calling me?
Mom: oh shit, nevermind I found it.
Yeah the problem is I don't have a card reader on my main desktop and I tried a bunch of my old passwords and none worked so I was just going to reimage it.
Interesting, I did not know that...
I tend to like every other one... 3.1, 98, 2000, xp, 7, 10...maybe 12?well see of the pattern continues.
I find Microsoft releases a good os... Gets drunk and comes up with crazy ideas... Refines ideas into usable os.... Gets drunk and more crazy ideas... Repeat
Yeah I'm thinking my SD card is failing... I know it's slow but I tried to do a fresh install in recovery 7 hours ago and it's still initialing the "noob" installer.
Supposedly I was thinking to small, I was thinking like trying to use nmap to discover all ip addresses on my lan or load vim to practice vim motions (I get the idea but I'm still too slow put in alot of commands cause I'm like ok... Up 10 lines, ok, up is.. Look on cheat sheet... I... then number of lines... That was 10...look on cheat sheet... Oh just enter 10...it didn't work... Figure out because it's not ingrained in my head the time looking at a cheat sheet is making commands time out).
One additional reason for this, if you mess something up you want sine working method to look up a resolution. If you change both and do something wrong so both systems are broke you don't have a way to access resources that tell you what you dud wrong and how to fix.
