He tried to buy the NFL's Buffalo Bills pro football team back about 2014. He was in the pool of 6 final bidders the NFL chose and was asked to submit financial records to show he could either buy the team or could raise funds for it with solid collateral backing, but instead he submitted a letter with a copy of a Fortune Magazine article listing him as one of the wealthier people in the United States. The NFL turned him down
LMAO I had to see whether or not that was true... Donald Trump passed out copies of a Forbes list of top-paid entertainers when huddling with Buffalo Bills execs to bolster his bid to buy the team - while refusing to reveal his financials, it surfaced in court Tuesday. “He gave us handouts of the Forbes list of the top-paid entertainers,” Don Cornwell of Morgan Stanley testified.
@@marshalbaek5580 Do you really think there is much of a middle ground with open fascists? People either think he's the bee's knees, or they they see him for what he is, a buffoon. The NFL is very much all about the money, so when he was just another horse's ass that inherited some money I'm not surprised they didn't take him at his (worthless) word. Still, I bet they'd bend over backwards to help trump buy a team now if they thought it'd get him elected, trump's whole platform is screwing over the poor and helping the rich. The rich aren't especially bright, but they understand that a 'politician' like trump is an investment, if he actually wins they win big, and if he loses they lost money they literally will never miss.
@@Mediaright That is as foolish as crediting the US Interstate Highway System to Henry Ford, because he built cars. And then attempting to defend the assertion by saying that Ford's Model T constituted the roots of the Interstate. It fails to fill any intent or purpose. You either don't understand what the internet is... a network of networks, or you're lying. Kara is not stupid. So the question here is why would she tell a blatant lie over a fact so simple.
If Trump Senior has 5 kids by 3 wives and is traveling south at 50 mph, and Trump Junior has 5 kids by one wife and is traveling west at 40 mph, how many indictments until the 2 men meet in prison?
Impossible not to admire women like Kara Swisher. A kind-hearted person with a fearsomely sharp mind and the best possible Jewish New Yorker accent; we're lucky to have her takes making sense of things, putting on the heat and moving the needle. A great American.
1:44 - "Artificial General Intelligence-the latest version of AI." This is not correct. Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) is the objective of machine learning, where an AI system can make critical decisions absolutely on its own, often better than a human. A lot of people thought GPT-3 had glimmers of AGI, but now we know its purpose is simply to generate believable sounding text based on its training data. I think what she means to say is Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) which provides training data (images or text) to machine learning algorithms. This can be things like DALL-E or Midjourney for images, Sora for video, and ChatGPT for text. Just think it's important in these segments that we start to introduce the proper terminology to educate the public.
And to be clear, based on what you say the objective is for AGI, it does not exist today and there is not enough tech that works today that can state AGI's "objective" will materialize with complete 100% certainty.
Yeah I found this jarring too. It may just be a slip of the tongue, but because it's a relatively hot-button issue, it's going to have some people claiming we already have AGI 😬
@@ballman2010 I found Israeli philisopher Yuval Noah Harari's AI commentary from his current press-run to be even more egregious. He was on Meyers last week and later Colbert, making Machine Learning to be some kind of bogeyman "digital consciousness that makes decisions that can harm humans." Sort of the "scary AI will control humanity" conversations your dad drones on about. Stephen Colbert called him out on it, saying all the datasets provided to ML models are made by humans, therefore the AI can only predict, create, or find patterns within the human dataset; NOT create entirely original ideas. Harari pushes back by saying algorithms like the Stockfish equivalent for Go play the game unlike any human player. But I feel this comparison is not evidence that refutes Colbert, and actually relies on older machine learning systems versus the GANs and deep learning systems we're obsessed with as a society today. I will be impressed when we find a communicator who can adequately convey these concepts in an exciting way! That person will truly inspire a generation of kids to get into the field, the way Carl Sagan did for astronomy.
@@evan1337 That makes more sense. Currently AGI doesn't exist, and may never exist. But LLM's can generate new content on demand. Just wait until they get good enough to use your metadata to customize every webpage and banner ad for each individual user.
We had theories for most of current AI in the 80s and 90s. What's different is the internet. It's cloud computing that allowed the implementation of the theory.
I gagged at Kara's answer to Seth's question about A.I. which led with "cars" as in "self-driving cars." As a transportation system planner, I consider "driverless" car tech a "fraudulent ruse" meant to distract attention from actual solutions to insane traffic. The compromise position on Autonomous Vehicle AV tech is "driver assist" ie, emergency braking, inadvertent lane changes, etc. AV could recognize posted speed limits, ie, one can drive slower than the posted speed limit, but not faster, nor too fast through busy intersections.
I want city streets divvy'ed up into E-W routes and N-S routes; then every third or fourth street, have them be only bicycle, motorcycle and bus routes except cars allowed at low speeds for the people who live on those streets. If some streets were made safer for bikes, more people would use bike commuting. It would be as fast or faster than car traffic and as time went on, more people would adapt to bike/motorbike or bus commuting. (We need more cars like the Twike, a pedal/electric hybrid). If bikes don't have to compete on car roads, bikers would be far safer.

She was talking about a child, years ago. My son had a friend over around 1995 - I had to tell him how to 'dial' the phone on the wall because he'd never seen one without buttons.

You're kinda right, but it wasn't completed when it was invented. The internet really wasn't useable until 1969.

Legislation might get passed before ASI emerges, but it's already way too late to even inhibit AGI.
