Honestly, I'm not scared of AI. What terrifies me is the desire to computerize everything. Not even for security concerns, but because complexity introduces points of failure. My damn toaster and fridge don't need to have computers in them. Keeping some tech analog **IS** better, and I'm tired of being told otherwise.
I saw something a few years back that was like "'We added an internet connection to this dishwasher.' 'Why does it need an internet connection?' 'For updates.' 'Why does it need to update?' 'To fix security vulnerabilities.' 'Why does it have security vulnerabilities?' 'Because it's connected to the internet,'" and it hasn't left my head.
Cars have consistently gotten worse since about 1015 for the same reason. They get better mileage, but that doesn't offset the more frequent breakdowns and errors that can only be repaired by professionals, and the shorter lifespan in general.
Countless lives could be saved and countless fires could be prevented if stoves were "drive by wire" and had sensors measuring active pan temperatures. Such a stove could turn itself down (or off) and refuse a request for more heat if you were going to cause a grease fire. It could maintain exact cooking temperatures or balance a pan RIGHT on the edge of its maximum warrantied temperature limit (usually 500°) with degree-perfect inhuman precision. It could be sent a recipe via Bluetooth and follow it automatically. It WOULD NOT REQUIRE an Internet connection. I wouldn't even call this control method a "smart appliance."

The only job they could possibly even take are taking your order and phone center. Not saying they be good at it either. My mom hates talking to a machine on the phone. Lol
@You_are_wrong99 It's pretty good. Lol by AI, I mean the ones that work based on voice actions or interactions buttons...etc. Robots are a whole other thing from AI, at least, that is what I think. At some point there will always be some human interaction, just a different aspect.
I’m not apathetic about AI anymore, now I actively hate it. It has become so intrusive in basic apps like Messenger and just getting in the way of normal use.
Idk why maybe its because i look at comments but i am not scared about AI i just think of it as a child that is learning nothing in life is black and white its all grey
I dont think it is that "no one care about AI anymore" I think it is because people are just sick of constantly hearing how it is going to take their job away, with at one point there being some crazy new breakthrough every week that promised to make you a little more jobless than before. or how so many multi million dollar companies were spending billions to replace you with something more efficient. after a while, people just get sick of it and dont want to hear about it anymore.
I got sick of hearing how dangerous to the world this fictional paperclip AI is, from the same people trying to sell us their fancy phone autocorrect. Like how overhyped and scary do you really want to try and make these chat bots? Extremely? Good luck with that.

I remember when solid state drive started becoming popular, a lot of companies would throw the words solid state around even though the product was either Always a solid-state product with no moving parts or still had moving parts and the solid state was just meaningless marketing gimmick
Fitting AI into this analogy would mean that the original models we have now will be obsolete and replaced by a standard that works well enough for 99% of products and consumers within a year or two, with a version 4 times better that's available for a premium price within about 5 years, that will continue to get cheaper and more accessible in the next decade.
7:55 Keyword here is "try" to assist them. I'm in uni right now and there have been multiple times where profs said at the beginning of the lecture "So, like 40% of you were using AI and you got 0s. Why do you keep trying this?"
I know right? I know so many people who tried to cheat using AI but what I wound up learning is that if you do, you're just wasting your time because ChatGPT sucks at giving factual information. In the case of my math classes, it would just make up random nonsense that kinda sounded like the subject we were on, but was not right at all. It's the same with programming classes. You can try to get ChatGPT to write your code for you, but it will take so long to troubleshoot that it would be faster to code it yourself.
Depends, the issue is when I need ai it's a specific thing I need like helping me refining my writing or correcting. At that point I already want a specific ai that's good at if.
Degenerative AI... yeah, it is soo generic tbh, we already have information overload. So, more information but lower quality in the creativity department, not nice :)
This has been bothering me for years, way before AI ever became a thing. Every time I happened to catch someone googling something, I couldn't help but notice how they were doing it completely wrong. Even people who know code don't know how to use search engines correctly. They all type a question into the search bar like they're talking to a person, not accessing and narrowing down the largest compilation of data in the world via keywords. And now because of their incompetence, search engines are losing their functionality.

Software engineer at big corporation here. Everybody is literally working on AI because of FOMO. All based on an imaginary extrapolation of exponential capabilities. If Other Company does actually figure out how to generalize an LLM system so it can do arbitrary tasks, then Our Company will be very far behind. This risk is perceived as greater than the risk of wasting a bunch of money and time now on tools that will never work.
same at our company. We use copilot's meeting minutes and it's kinda garbage... otherwise they want to shove it into everything and each team got a directive to check how it can be integrated into everything... We've had some automation companies pitch their tools which in most cases is workflow automation + customer responses, but I'm not sure how reliable it is. What I WANT and what I'm waiting for is a Large Action Model, that runs locally and can design all 100k test cases for me on house-grown applications for QA testing.
I am so glad the small engineering company I work for told everyone "do not touch this shit with a 10 foot pole. If you use it for your work you are, at best, Breaking the fucking Law" (paraphrased)
Its funny looking at the AI hype from a more technical perspective and seeing how obviously its been overhyped and over promised. Its got to be the funniest psyop to make CEOs buy your bullshit to the point that they’re giving your Industry free promo saying shit like “there will be no programmers soon” 😂
I can't wait for the new buzzword tech craze. We'll call it "teleporters", but it'll actually just be a phone app that lets you order a car to come pick you up and take you to a location. Just make sure to show pics of Star Trek and have a 20-something in a turtleneck say "Beam me up, Scotty". Generate billions.
itll probably more likely be those amazon delivery drones but you can order one to pick something up from your house and take it to a company instead of mailing it
They're already doing that with "quantum teleportation". That doesn't actually move anything. It copies the properties of one particle onto another at a different location. By that definition, fax machines teleport paper.
The funny thing about that Steve Jobs quote is not only that it is wrong about the topic, he is also wrong about his comparison, nobody would have said "I want a faster horse", people would have said "I want to carry more things" "I hate dealing with my horse's poop" "My horse is ill and theres no way for me to heal him", all problems being solved by "Then use this car, it can carry up to 500kg of weight, is safe inside, and doesnt poop" I think Steve was simply omega lucky by finding a really cool design that solved a problem people had with previous phones: "I cant see whats on the screen because it is too small" and gave us a phone that used the keyboard space for more screen with a magical keyboard that only appears when you need it. You can tell when someone doesnt consume the things they sell when they try to solve problems where there are none while ignoring the actual problems, in the case of AI it is the complete opposite, techs talking about stuff they for sure will be using and is solving a problem only they have thinking it will be useful for everyone else, like me selling a super cool juice squeezing machine to everyone because it makes my job as a juice squeezer so much easier but i forgot that the burger flipper doesnt need a juice squeezing machine, he only needs money.
The thing is, he's not COMPLETELY wrong. The common consumer doesn't understand the industry and doesn't know what solutions are available for his common problems, so if you ask them what they want of course they just say "a better version of what I already have" because that's all they know. There are a lot of companies that want to say they're making the next iPhone when really they're just putting more powerful hardware in an existing device. There were no smartphones before the iPhone, at least none worth using. You want iPhone money, you have to solve problems people didn't even realize were solvable, maybe problems they didn't even realize they had at all. The best thing LLM AI might ever be is a more radical version of the mouse - a slower and more inefficient way to do things who's sole selling point is that you need far less tech-literacy to use it, but made for computers already so simple that any reasonable person can find the time to get proficient with them. Is being able to get diagnosed retards onto the internet a selling point? Is that a trillion-dollar product? Not really.
“It doesn’t poop, but it is gonna give two entire generations lead poisoning.” In fairness, the lead thing was not immediately disgusting like poop. Very much a slow burn.
Before the rise of investment capitalism, products were created by people needed them for their own use and only then found others to say "ooh, where can I get one of those?!" Investment capitalism has turned out to be nothing more gaslighting you that you have a problem that you don't recognize, like when Listerine invented the term 'halitosis' with ads which can still be found with copy text like "DON'T FOOL YOURSELF Since halitosis never announces itself to the victim, you simply cannot know when you have it." and "No matter how charming you may be or how fond of you your friends are, you can not expect them to put up with halitosis (unpleasant breath) forever. They may be nice to you-but it is an effort."
AI is currently being out into my healthcare. It’s not that I no longer care about AI. It’s that I actively despise it and want it removed from my life in a way that is literally impossible, because politicians and shareholders like the buzzword.
Was your healthcare great before AI? Perhaps the problem is the politicians and shareholders dictating what you're going to have, and that you better like it or else!
Average person cares about price of living. I pay something like 30% of my income in rent, and getting a mortgage is really fucking hard. No amount of fancy gadgets with shiny new apps will distract me from this reality. So yeah, unless AI figures out how to drop housing prices by 90%, I don't care much about it, aside from using it sometimes in my software engineering work.
if AI had that power the money people would squeeze every living drop out of that prospect and throw the crumbs to everyone else. though i guess that's what they're doing.

In other words the same problems previous generations have had for roughly 50 years. Maybe watch old news interviews from the 1970’s of regular people struggling with stagflation much like we have today. You’d think the interviews are from the 2020’s. We aren’t that special.
Be careful assuming that AI-assisted code writing will improve your productivity, or that doing so will increase your salary. First of all, AI-assisted code has something like 50% more bugs. Second, even if AI-assisted code was perfect and doubled your productivity, that just means your execs can lay off half of their coders.
I dont care about AI because my groceries cost twice as much as they did 3 years ago and a 200k house now costs 850k. People simply have more things to deal with these days and dont have the time, money and energy these days.
People don't have more things to deal with these days if they don't want to. Half our tech helped us bypass stupid bureaucratic nonsense and free up our hands, especially so for the utterly broken educational system, at least now having pocket-carried tutors for everyone in store. I mean, some things definitely got worse in some regards, but that here is not the argument to make.

@@OnyeNachoyep and one of the biggest first party forerunners absolutely despises AI. Nintendo is the only company I actually get excited for new releases (Mario and Zelda) because they feel like new human upgrades Nintendo did that repetitive slop between 2006-2017 and they don't want to go back. and I mean the switch 2 is the only console that is getting a hype that is not from developer themselves (I only like the Xbox series X because Dev mode is actually useful on it)
I heard someone mention once that self driving cars were never gonna take off because of the 90/10 performance issue. For 90% of the time the robot driving the car performed wonderfully, but in 10% of the time it fucked up and was unable to cope. "AI" seems to be going the same way.
"Machine learning" learns at the pace and with the penchant for taking the wrong lessons of, say, Ralph Wiggum. Or an Ubisoft executive. Or a not terribly bright toddler.
I think most of Steve Jobs’ success was due to surrounding himself with competent staff and being gifted a huge slice of _good luck._ Apple launched the iPod and iPhone at a time when hardware was small enough, power efficient enough, and cheap enough to create portable wireless supercomputers that also make phone calls. Apple didn’t invent the portable music player, they waited until the tech was ready and improved the user interface. Apple tried to do iPhone with Motorola a few years before the iPhone but it was slow, bulky, hard to use, and had limited storage space so it failed hard. When the tech was there, it finally came together in the iPhone. Steve Jobs was lucky, just like all successful billionaires.
As someone who works in AI, but for use in biomedical research applications, I really hate that LLM's and other generative models have taken so much spotlight and hype. There's so much that neural networks can do but the parts that get attention are the ones that have the least utility for real world problems beyond doing a Google search for you.
Fr tho like why focus on generated images when we have ARTISTS, that you can even find for often just as much as the ai subscription services, sometimes even less. Artists have always struggled in financial status. And even more so now, because of the ai. We are real people, and ai bros only create more problems affecting REAL people
LLMs are absolutely deserving of the hype, even rigorous AI research can do so much with this core substrate for computation and reasoning in general. I somewhat agree with pictures, every stupid video essay gets caught up on them, like close-to-perfect translations from and into Japanese or Chinese weren't insanely impressive and literally eliminated the biggest part of all worldwide localization industries overnight - but even then it's highly promising in many diagnostic and research-oriented disciplines, for, say, biology where you're dealing with very broken datasets. I mean, people naysaying AI are lost in their sauce anyway. It's kind of a good heuristic, if someone isn't astonished by LLMs alone (which everyone with half a brain should be), chances are you're never going to understand or appreciate the niche applications of these models. I mean, nobody even ever knew that Spotify was one of the biggest players in the space since around 2012, virtually perfecting music recommender engines so much so that it was half their product - deservedly, too, because it was great then and still is today. And even the mundane "google search for you" is so, so much better, because folks still don't understand that there is a difference between typing three-letter keywords and getting a random SEO result versus having a model provide you with the different possible meanings you can then quickly select from. Anyone who can't see the benefits of all this is just plainly talking out of their asses, simple as that.
@@kinggeocat OMFV, stop with the wolf crying! No one cares about your entitlement complex. I'd much rather use AI-generated work to combine with my own art talents than waste time and money with another liability excuse for an artist who will just try and nickel and dime me at any possible opportunity, while virtue signaling or going on a power trip on DeviantArt or some other social media service. GAI has been the most liberating technology to ever happen in my life. I don't have to content with entitled artists like Steven Zapata or Joshua Palmer, anymore. You guys are like the taxi drivers crying about cybertaxi services like Uber (when they use to be a great company) providing better service in a time when the former just abused their talents and took their customers for granted.
Perhaps that is because AI technology's greatest and most reliable strength right now is in the creative sector. Entertainment has never been anymore better thanks to Generative Artificial Intelligence. With AIG voices, mod potential is far greater than before, allow modders to make unofficial sequels or prequels to the base game's story for instance or simply renewing the lifespan of old and dated mods (see some Deus Ex AIG voice mods for examples). Game art and music can be done faster and refined by the solo game developer to improve quality or tune it to their specialized preference(s).
@@OnyeNacho The problem with generative AI art is that it enshittifies everything. Any work that makes use of it ends up looking like a cheap low effort bootleg imitation of the real thing. There's a reason why "AI art" has become a synonym for "crappy art" even if it's done my a human.
If AI has a million haters, then I am one of them. If AI has ten haters, then I am one of them. If AI has one hater, it is me. If AI has no haters, then I am no longer on earth. If the world is for AI, then I am against the world.
And yet, when you actually look at AI capabilities from one year to the next, every time it's like a miracle has occurred. There's always a big pile of things that a computer absolutely could never have done before, and can do now. Sometimes even better than humans.

There's a huge gap between "works in theory, given great amount of economic and intellectual effort" and "works in practice, saving money instead of costing more".
@@clray123 Did you actually try making that AI for your game or did you just decide that it can't be done? Because it actually sounds rather doable even for AI hobbyist. Given you can provide the training data naturally.
@@aev6075 No, is not doable - for both lack of data and also lack of hardware resources (or not willing to spend thousands of $$ for said hardware). It is also extremely time consuming and frustrating to define the loss function that needs to be optimized for such a multiple-goal optimization algorithm to work reliably. I challenge you, as an AI hobbyist, to create a good deep RL-based for any open source RTS game with a small player base.
AI will never stop developing because 1) makes creating assets MUCH easier 2) makes doing science much faster e.g(protein folding) 3) losing a drone is much cheaper than a trained person in warfare. the mass adoption will come in making products for example no owns a conveyer belt
Yeah you're right. When someone says that people should"stop using AI" because they don't want it to "take over"... It's too late. Humans had a hand in evolving AI and it's going to continue advancing at a rapid rate. That's like someone saying that people should stop using the Internet... because it's evil and will take over the world.
I remember the "Smart revolution" of the 2010s, where you took a random appliance, connect it to WiFi through shody security and a separate app that harvested all your information and slap the *SMART* title to make it seem it was a great invention, "AI" is that, the same sham but new buzzword.
It seems like they want to figure out how to harvest all of our data but it's not physically possible so they keep trying but using other avenues thinking the more they have the more the problem will be solved but it won't It's impossible to have everyone's data

But you do you, not everyone is keeping up at the same pace.
@@minhuang8848 I never pretended to deliver the next big innovation in internet discourse. I'm just sharing my opinion. AI doesn't even have an opinion.
I think the fact they kept correcting the most entertaining behaviors of AIs is what helped make people get bored. If it still could be free and insane at times it might have more draw as a novelty or source or amusement.
What are you talking about ? AI can still be accessed for free. There are thousands of open-source models available right now. Heck, you can just make your own model if you want.
We have no reason to care about AI art, writing or music.. it's just a clever party trick and the content has no meaning whatsoever. It relies on massive quantities of harvested data, but then gives humans no reason to continue creating content to feed into the models. So it is self-defeating. Combined with the immense waste of time, money, resources and electricity.. well it's a losing proposition. If an AI really did know everything about you, why would you do anything at all? The AI would already know what you were going to do. Stupid.
We have no reason to care about art, writing or music in general. We just choose to. And most people don't care who actually created the art they're consuming, therefore the problem with AI art isn't that it was created by AI, but its quality. Which is a solvable issue.
I rather opt for AI art these days when I need art I can't do myself in a matter of minutes. It's just so much easier, cheaper, faster, more flexible and frankly often better quality than what I could get from human. Note that I don't need hyper photorealistic images of hands and AI can nail pretty much everything.
I think a major issue with this AI boom is that it is seen as threatening the jobs of the kinds of trendsetters who sit in Starbucks and tweet about Marxism from their iPhone.
A common theme among anti-AI arguments - even in this comment section - is that it's taking the 'wrong' jobs. As if automation 'should' be taking away all of the blue-collar jobs, even though by the argument they make there's a hell of a lot more blue-collar workers than there are artists and novelists. Surely taking away all of their jobs would be a bad thing, too? They only care now because _they're_ the ones being threatened for once and not some other group they don't care about.
I enjoy AI when it's used to have fun and make dumb shit like the Pope flipping people off or making a politicians sing Carameldansen. Chasing after AI and shoving it into everything just makes it feel like a gimmick that'll get dropped when the companies get bored.
Memes are entertaining, but even those are dubious for me- sry for pissing in your salad, but I do feel it wrong with the "generated" memes, takes a wee bit from certain artistry of making a meme (and besides, it makes these things live even shorter lives, as if we need more spastic behaviour)

@@jordan8056ok Jordan. I know that personally, I will NEVER watch an AI UA-cam video. I can’t trust what some robot says to be true or something it believes. I can trust that of a real person making real videos. And if they break that trust, I can stop watching them and watch a different REAL PERSON. That’s where you daft AI bros get it wrong. Most people dislike “AI” in creative or factual fields. Most people, even relatively not-tech savvy people can tell when they’re watching “AI” slop and will click off to find something made by a real person with real emotions and intentions. It’s just the old and/or uninformed people who don’t know better we’ve gotta look out for.
Furthermore, AI startups have been bleeding money dry by a lot lately with Open AI for example estimated to be losing 5 billion each year. And not only are their sales pretty low, but the differentiation between corporation backed AI models to Open Source ones is pretty minimal, further diminishing their pricing power in the market. In fact, corporation backed LLMs have pretty minimal differences even amongst themselves too!
I could reasonably see Open AI losing 5 billion every year, but they will never go bankrupt (however, sources wouldn't hurt). As soon as they run out of money, they'll just go public and release something to hype investors (what Spotify has been doing for a decade now). Also, I'm pretty sure open-source models are still pretty far behind if you're talking text generation. Currently, truly open-source models like Mythomax only have around ~13B training parameters which is still far from even GPT 4's 220B. The truth is, Open Source LLM's is an oxymoron. It takes too much money and power to feasibly take it out of the hands of large companies. AI wont fall unless the consumers wills it to.
Actually the most ground breaking thing with ai came recently Alpha Fold ai. It predicts protein structures. Completely revolutionizing biochemistry and medication in general. It’s just not known by anyone not a nerd.
That doesnt make sense. If it has potential, it is by definition not a temporary novelty,. Both fields are making progress, just not at the rate you want them to.
It's a marketing scam at best, and the corporations know this. A more accurate term would be "I.A." or "Imitative Algorithms". The thing about "innovation" is that it has to be based on necessity. If something feels like an "extra add-on", instead of a legitimate improvement, then it's not needed.
Nah, im in tech. Its an actual thing. Its quite useful too. Github copilot helps a lot of our engineers write tests, but it does hallucinates sometimes so we also monitor it.

AI, a solution searching for a problem. Also, one of the great barriers for text to something models is prompting. By the time I get the right prompt, I could probably have done it by myself.
Uhhh, the Nobel Prizes of Physics and Chemistry of this year (2024) was only possible due to AI, saying AI do not help with problem solving is delusional. They used AI to create new forms of proteins that would not be possible to do without a model. It was a massive deal for both Medicine and Material Engineering.
@@marcus3445 machine learning has been around for decades lmao. they didn’t even use an LLM for that. that doesn’t disprove the fact that most of the uses of LLMs and GenAI being pushed are value-negative
It's not as much that people don't care, really. What happened was a combination of a lot of things that made people get more and more dissolutioned with AI. There were (and still are) complaints about stealing art, annoying advertisements, huge tech bubbles, and so much more that just made people fed up with the topic as a whole. The technology isn't the problem, rather how both sides reacted to it.
None of those really have an impact though, this here is a niche battleground for people to throw their beliefs at each others' heads and that's it. Most folks just keep using it and do whatever the tech allows them to do - how both sides react really doesn't matter a lot either. I mean, now and again some stupid online mob will rail against a previously well-liked UA-camr who admits that these models are useful for certain applications and all that, but in a bit of time, nobody is going to worry about that anymore. It's not a hype or a tech that will stop getting better or simply vanish, all our collective yapping is just mindless discussion and not much else.
I'm a lawyer and there's still so much hype around what LLM can do, how they'll replace us, etc. But we do have an specialized service in our office and, yeah, it's kind of nifty to help you summarice documents analice boring contracts, but you still have to read everything before hand to know what to feed the thing, and also check it hasn't hallucinated fake info (even legal AIs are prone to hallucinate jurisprudence, etc.). So...yeah. Useful as a tool, but they're no replacement. And I remember the hype around legal firms saying they'd work in the Metaverse, lol.

I always took the Ford quote to mean "most people haven't imagined the thing that will really help them. That's our job: be creative, and solve problems with a solution nobody else even thought of. Once they see it, of course they'll want it." It was more about the importance of innovation over slavishly following industry trends. I know ol' Henry doesn't have a great reputation, but it does have merit if understood that way.
Agreed! Ford knew that people want to get from point A to B, fast, and cheap. So, obviously, he wanted to make technology that improved on existing offerings. But Steve Jobs misused it. What _basis_ would he have for thinking people wouldn't want a stylus or bigger iPhone? (And honestly, how did he _not_ realize artists would want styluses?) Consumers ask "what does AI do that I can't do, and is it enough of an improvement to justify the tradeoff?" Often the answers are "nothing and no".
I think AI is starting to be seen as a hollow buzzword by some people, but more and more things are lending a negative connotation to "AI", enough that its a black mark for consumers. You get the thing without caring about AI, or you buy it despite the AI. The section of the market enthralled with it is shrinking rapidly. Much like how the buzzword "NFT" is nowhere to be found despite its market saturation 2 years ago. If a product was adorned with that word today people would probably avoid it, regardless of whether they actually understand what it means and how it relates to that specific product.
Actually I will never buy a PC with Microsoft software baked in much less Microsoft AI of any sort. It's a real deal breaker as I do realize it just means "less ownership, more spyware".
By calling everything AI, they'd ruined the sci-fi dream sorta. Same with calling an OS Android. Now Data from Star Trek will need to be called something else.

Cuz it's not AGI, it's just a branding scheme that they hope is close enough to AGI eventually. Note: AGI= artificial general intelligence. Meaning AI that can think for itself. Current AI doesn't think for itself, it's good at Q&A-like prompts for a good 2-3 minute conversation. But beyond that. The current "AI" doesn't remember a chunk of conversation, degrading in quality. (I managed to gaslight chatgpt the math is wrong. Even though I was asking why the formula is like that, {i have wrong assumptions}. At first it was defending the correct formula. Without providing enough reason why, then eventually it gave in and said my wrong formula is correct) AGI would be able to understand my confusion and adjust accordingly. Hence new AI is being trained on context problems. If they're able to do that, AI being able to solve Logic problems you see in schools without being trained on similar problems. AGI would be here. Not sayin if it's efficient though. Currently, the cost of training/using AI is too expensive compared to biological brains.
@@augustday9483 Adding here cuz my other comment is large enough Point is. Yes, the same Q&A technology of yt "algorithm" is the same technology for current "AI" The queries and prompts (search/watch history) vs answers (watch time) Meaning "current AI" is not what is considered "traditionally AI" (AGI) It's just rebranding and huge scaling of old algorithms used for queries and prompts that acts to be AGI
It's so dumb that Microsoft is asking for 50gb or more of your storage space for background screenshots that you may not even need for an AI you may not even care about. And who knows how 24/7 screenshots and AI running in the background constantly will affect battery life
Yes but no? At least with NFTs, you only had to _not_ jump on the bandwagon. Now, with LLMs, you're able to make highly precise imitation of people and places and trick you into believing and/or doing things that will hurt you from short to long-term. You don't even have to jump on that bandwagon to be affected.
i probably would be more interested in AI if it was more "robot that can do chores for you and perform medical procedures and so on" and less "midjourney allows you to generate images of Bugs Bunny starting world war III while dressed as Napoleon"
Well if a program can be made to generate images, then that's a step in the right direction to create robots that do actually useful things like medical procedures and chores, because it shows the capabilities of AI and machine learning models.
Look up Boston Dynamics' new Robot or the countless startups popping up that are attempting to develop something like this. AI is not a monolith, midjourney and your fantasy can be developed independently.
Tesla Optimus, Figure 02, Unitree G1, Boston Dynamics' new electric Atlas, 1X Neo, Fourier Intelligence GR2, Astribot S1, Apptronik Apollo, Sanctuary AI Pheonix, Xiaomi Cyberone, Macco Robotics KIME, Standfords Mobile Aloha, etc. This is a front that people are working on although it might just be part of the AI hype.
Billionaires treated AI like a casserole they know they messed up on, but are too proud to throw it away, and now we are all forced to try and eat it’s left overs.
It's more like nerds are working hard on our waifu robots and billionaires decided to show the world the second they could start to talk a little. We're not even close to being done yet the wip got broadcasted and marketed anyway.

GPU prices no longer have anything to do with supply bottlenecks, Nvidia just realized people are willing to pay twice as much. Prices will only go down if/when demand recedes. I wouldn’t expect PC gaming to be affordable again any time soon.
The hype will die off like how hype around mobile phones died off. Nobody gets excited about cell phones anymore. However, Similar to Cell Phones, the tech is to useful to to cease to exist. AI solves a problem that humans have and there will be growing pains associated with it. Though I think your message may be related to a very specific aspect of AI that bothers you like art or job security.

Linus Torvalds said that AI is 90% Marketing, 10% reality and I agree with him. Edit: Another thing that I hate about AI is the horrible marketing, which was pointed out in the video a lot, and every aspect of this video is just satisfying my anger about AI.

@@Shyguy5104 No kidding, almost as if you were comparing a simple telecommunication technology with a freaking brain in a vat that allows you to discuss college-level subjects with an open-minded, non-aggressive entity that casually manages to encode millions of distinct facts and relationships "God didn't hype up worm ganglions as much as evolution bros were hyping up human cognition" - that's how silly that comparison sounds.
As much as I dislike Steve Jobs, I very much agree with his (allegedly?) quote at 15:15. Customers are reluctant to change and if asked what they want they are more likely to describe what they've already seen in their life rather than come up with a new original concept without a working prototype.
Here's my take. AI starts to be good, people and companies overinvest and overhype it, then it crashes. After the crash, it starts to become good and usable, but after some time corpos take over it again and ruin it for good. But the way things are going, we probably won't even see the good stuff after the crash because we live in a pathetic era. At least with the internet we had some great things before corpo stepped in and ruined it.
It already is usable. The problem is that it's absolutely mostly usable if you are a scammer. It's the perfect gift for con artists and grifters and troll farms and scammers. And google AI already makes all online journalism unprofitable to do, only profitable to steal with an "AI". So thanks to Google's new AI summaries newspaper sites get zero traffic and Google earns billions more in Ad revenue.

I just hope big companies stop considering using generative AI to help create their next movies, TV shows, videogames, etc. I'm still bummed over the fact that the new Professor Layton game may have potentially been created using AI, considering how much it's developer, Level-5 was hyping the idea of using generative AI for their games...

@schroedingersband I hope more effort and funding is put into Real-Time Language Translation. When we invent a TRUE Universal Translator (functions in real-time w/ 99.9% accuracy regardless of accent), the world will change pretty quickly within 1 generation.
@@ChineduOpara nah. it sounds nice, then you understand how languages work and you find out it makes no real sense. translating text is one thing, translating speech is a whole different beast. (i'm a linguist, specialized in interpretation, and have worked as an interpreter for about 5 years now). the problem is that Language isn't simply a collection of words and their meanings, there's a whole lot that comes with it: Tone, inflection, connotation, denotation, implication, speech impediments, sarcasm, irony, variation in Regional accents, crutch words, mispronunciations, redundancies... Learning a language and being fluent in a language enough to translate it in real time doesn't just mean knowing the words and what they mean, it also necessitates the ability to recognize all of those different elements I mentioned and the capacity to move them over from one culture to another. Language is also culture. There are languages where you don't only need to know the words but you also need to address the other speakers in a culturally aware way: Several languages have different registers that demand different grammatical structures and different words depending on the speaker and the listeners position in society, or even their physical location. I'm confident in saying that an AI could not get to that point without exorbitant amounts of money and research. what actually worries me is that some dumb manager believes some ai could do all that and drive me and hundreds of thousands of other interpreters to unemployment.
Bringing up the AI headlines was such an intelligent way to seamlessly segue into your ad break. I've noticed that typically the transition from video to ad can feel a bit jarring and break up the flow of the video itself, but when you did that in this video it felt like the rhythm of it wasn't broken up at all. Well played, Tyler. Well played.
Having known that banner ads are functionally worthless for a very long time, the big existential threat to web 2.0 now is the potential that the information gathered on their users has little more value. Part of this 'AI' push is that these companies are trying to increase the value of the only asset they really have, peoples' data.
I think another element is that AI is kind of seen as cringe by young people (who are the arbitrators of what is culturally seen as cool or not). Never underestimate the uncoolness factor from dictating market trends.
Nah, it's the would-be-boomers. 30-somethings just embracing the middle-aged stubbornness that is to come, pretending like their music taste is the best and like they don't have to adapt to new technology because their collective experiences are the standard for how things should be. Young folks absolutely love it, especially to mitigate shortcomings. Using these things as very competent personal tutors alone is a huge use case I see constantly, and it works incredibly for those kids who embrace it. Marketing... my dude, kids are embracing skibidi toilets and brainrot, you think some classic 90s Mattel-ads or Pokémon shoe-ins were distracting young folks? It's the cynical pricks and young adults who are shitting on everyone. Hell, even the really old ones end up being more open to new things at face value, just look at how everyone said grampy wouldn't use a phone and now, that's literally all he does. It's nowhere near uncool enough with any demographic, and if it is, you might be in an echo chamber - because just about everyone is very happy with what it can do for you.
@minhuang8848 1) I never said the youth don't use AI. Just that the general vibe I get is like, it's kind of pathetic to use it 2) you might be right about the echo chamber thing, I am in very artistic communities who generally hate AI for stealing our stuff and trying (and failing miserably) to replace us economically. But also I think *you're* in an echo chamber if you think that AI in its current form is "the future" or whatever. This video is literally about how AI is a bubble that's in the process of bursting. You might as well tell me The Metaverse is gonna be the Next Big Thing
@@notlurking2128It's certainly cut off a lot of the low hanging fruit. Webnovel covers for instance: that used to be all human commissioned. Now, most are AI.
Let me be clear. AI most likely still poses a significant change. Just because people don't care doesn't mean anything has changed. All it means is people have a short attention span
It's going to have a moment where they start charging way too much to use it and it won't be viable compared to traditional means at both consumer and business scale. Like all tech companies, you start with it dirt cheap, selling it at a loss, to get everyone into your system, then you jack up the price once you decide the number needs to go up, and it'll go up QUICK. You look at the power infrastructure needed to use it at the scale to be viable, and it just collapses on itself. It's more profitable to fail a big tech pitch then succeed these days for those at the top, so welcome the latest pyramid scheme.
The issue isn’t just that people don’t care anymore- another issue is that people have seen enough of the low-quality crap AI churns out by now. They don’t trust it bc they know it’s shit.
If AI was meant to replace mundane day-to-day tasks like laundry or house cleaning then it'd sell well, but all they every say is "Hey, AI can do this thing you already do, but worse and unreliably. It'll get good enough, we promise!". And even worse, it's advertised as a way to delete your creative hobbies which is a massive turn off
I've seen people getting excited at the idea of paying 40 grand for a Tesla robot to... fill the 400 dollars dishwasher for them? Use the vaccuum cleaner? Retrieve the post outside? Rub clean an already pristine kitchen table? Walk the dog for you (why did you even get a dog if you can't dedicate it 10 minutes 3 times a day)? Would you buy a single seater helicopter to go for groceries just because it's the fastest and most advanced thing around to do so? Fun fact: anybody who works with robotics of any kind (from assemblers to CNC machinery) knows that robots are great at doing the same task over and over, and absolutely inconvenient if you need to keep changing task quickly. "Retooling" is a long and meticolous job, and the machine will constantly demand your attention at any new, unprogrammed scenarios. You will waste much more time dealing with this robot constantly stopping due to random reasons, than doing your home tasks yourself.
@@Dexter01992People pay for butlers and maids. Not that the Tesla bot would be anything close to a butler or maid in practice but, having something else do stuff you don't wanna do is already something people pay for.
@@Blue-fg8vt Yes, it's why we buy domestic appliances when we can afford them. Common people definitely can't afford full time maids and butlers. But a humanoid robot is orders of magnitude more complex than a Roomba, or a blender, or a dishwasher, both in initial cost, repair/mainteinance and overall use. It won't magically reduce in cost to the point common people can afford buying one every 2-3 years (let's face it, nowadays they won't be built to run much beyond warranty). The cost has to be justified. A vehicle at such cost is justified as it enables you to do lots of things you are otherwise massively penalized without. A robot in this case is just taking your place into doing things common people can easily do themselves, especially with the already existing devices in your house or the ones you could afford by buying those instead of the robot for a fraction of the cost. I'm not saying "robots are useless everywhere". But I find them a very redundant thing to have in common family houses, for the massive cost they have and will keep having.
AI can make better art than I can do. It can do it in fraction of the time and price any human artist can. To me illustration is boring mundane job and AI can absolutely nail that one. I already have a robot washing my laundry. I call it laundry machine. I also have a day to day vacume cleaning robot which is powered by AI. It is called a roomba
Once, an AI Chat box offered me a job, took all my info, scheduled me for an interview time. When I showed up at the company, their hiring manager was not expecting me, nor were they hiring. The company had just implemented this chatbot on their site, but nobody at the actual warehouse was using it. So stupid. Wasted everyone's time.
I honestly think people just don't care. Apple was a fashion statement in the early 2000s. Nowadays "everyone" has an Apple. What is the point in upgrading from an iPhone 12 to iPhone 15, there is no point at all.
You're missing the point on multiple levels. It's not customers companies are targeting right now; it's the tech-savvy individuals who will truly understand the potential here. Do you realize the biggest barrier in technology today? Judging by your video, it doesn’t seem so. Imagine I have a groundbreaking idea for a new tech gadget. Achieving this in today’s landscape, even with open-source libraries, tools, hardware, Linux, and all available resources, is nearly impossible. The effort and resources required are overwhelming, meaning even with a great idea, I’m left unable to make it a reality. AI is the game-changer here. It's like upgrading from a bicycle to a brand-new car for a long journey. This is aimed at people who are ready to leverage this shift, and the potential impact is immense. Soon, the pace of technological advancement will be explosive-10 times or more than what we're seeing now. Currently, progress feels like a slow slideshow for many reasons, but it doesn’t have to be this way. I hope that clarifies things. And yes, I used ChatGPT to refine this statement to save some time. See you in this new era.
I mean, Big Brother did Multiverse theme for 2023 and that whole shtick died this year. They made AI the theme this year so I wouldn’t be surprised if by next year the hype is just absolutely dead

I have a question. What will my future AI phone think of me if it realizes I ignore it's advice and recommendations? Sure I need shredded cheese but I'm gonna look in my fridge myself. Will it work harder to force itself into my life? Or will it be "smart" and turn its personalization off? Clearly it's still going to harvest my data and send it to a tech company regardless.
Even with coding AI is a band-aid for learning how to code yourself. And often it gives inefficient answers, like suggesting recursion when recursion is not necessary
@@kurenian It's not something you can use to replace coding knowledge for sure, you are absolutely right on that. But it is a very good tool when you you use it in similar way you would use something like stack overflow. Ontop of that you can use it to generate boilerplates, docstrings and all those simple, but often time consuming things.
Great video! Computer scientist here, and I just have a small nitpick. Around the five-minute mark, you refer to "Large Language Models" (LLMs) but seem to be describing the broader process of "machine learning" rather than LLMs specifically. Just to clarify: while all LLMs are machine learning models, not all machine learning models are LLMs. LLMs are a specific type of model designed primarily for natural language processing tasks, like text generation, as the name suggests. The recent AI boom has indeed popularized transformers (the architecture behind many LLMs), and they're now being adapted for other fields, including image and audio generation. But LLMs themselves are still mainly focused on handling text, not multimedia tasks.
@@ChineduOpara that, plus people seem to get very upset when X new thing isn't literally magic with very different success criteria to what we'd dare expect from a mere human. It's like self driving cars. If we applied the criteria we've developed for them to human drivers, we'd still be using horses.
Well... it was over hyped, but it's far, very far, from dead. IA is very much moving fast and it's actually taking over some works. It's just less spoken about, of corse, but IA is a tool that is there, it's useful, and will stay there.
Also the only people were heavily invested in AI were cryptoclowns and other scummy people. It's another tool to "get rich quick". There are no real people behind it.
I think there's a bit of a difference; Machine Learning actually has some uses whilst crypto is just almost entirely useless and makes everything worse. ML has been used well in weather prediction and protein folding for example.

What terrifies me is the desire to computerize everything. Not even for security concerns, but because complexity introduces points of failure. My damn toaster and fridge don't need to have computers in them. Keeping some tech analog **IS** better, and I'm tired of being told otherwise.
Toasters peaked in the 1960’s and that’s kinda sad.

'To fix security vulnerabilities.' 'Why does it have security vulnerabilities?' 'Because it's connected to the internet,'" and it hasn't left my head.
Cars have consistently gotten worse since about 1015 for the same reason. They get better mileage, but that doesn't offset the more frequent breakdowns and errors that can only be repaired by professionals, and the shorter lifespan in general.
Countless lives could be saved and countless fires could be prevented if stoves were "drive by wire" and had sensors measuring active pan temperatures. Such a stove could turn itself down (or off) and refuse a request for more heat if you were going to cause a grease fire. It could maintain exact cooking temperatures or balance a pan RIGHT on the edge of its maximum warrantied temperature limit (usually 500°) with degree-perfect inhuman precision. It could be sent a recipe via Bluetooth and follow it automatically. It WOULD NOT REQUIRE an Internet connection. I wouldn't even call this control method a "smart appliance."

Fitting AI into this analogy would mean that the original models we have now will be obsolete and replaced by a standard that works well enough for 99% of products and consumers within a year or two, with a version 4 times better that's available for a premium price within about 5 years, that will continue to get cheaper and more accessible in the next decade.
7:55 Keyword here is "try" to assist them. I'm in uni right now and there have been multiple times where profs said at the beginning of the lecture "So, like 40% of you were using AI and you got 0s. Why do you keep trying this?"
I know right? I know so many people who tried to cheat using AI but what I wound up learning is that if you do, you're just wasting your time because ChatGPT sucks at giving factual information. In the case of my math classes, it would just make up random nonsense that kinda sounded like the subject we were on, but was not right at all. It's the same with programming classes.

The funny thing about that Steve Jobs quote is not only that it is wrong about the topic, he is also wrong about his comparison, nobody would have said "I want a faster horse", people would have said "I want to carry more things" "I hate dealing with my horse's poop" "My horse is ill and theres no way for me to heal him", all problems being solved by "Then use this car, it can carry up to 500kg of weight, is safe inside, and doesnt poop"
I think Steve was simply omega lucky by finding a really cool design that solved a problem people had with previous phones: "I cant see whats on the screen because it is too small" and gave us a phone that used the keyboard space for more screen with a magical keyboard that only appears when you need it.
You can tell when someone doesnt consume the things they sell when they try to solve problems where there are none while ignoring the actual problems, in the case of AI it is the complete opposite, techs talking about stuff they for sure will be using and is solving a problem only they have thinking it will be useful for everyone else, like me selling a super cool juice squeezing machine to everyone because it makes my job as a juice squeezer so much easier but i forgot that the burger flipper doesnt need a juice squeezing machine, he only needs money.
The thing is, he's not COMPLETELY wrong. The common consumer doesn't understand the industry and doesn't know what solutions are available for his common problems, so if you ask them what they want of course they just say "a better version of what I already have" because that's all they know. There are a lot of companies that want to say they're making the next iPhone when really they're just putting more powerful hardware in an existing device. There were no smartphones before the iPhone, at least none worth using. You want iPhone money, you have to solve problems people didn't even realize were solvable, maybe problems they didn't even realize they had at all.
The best thing LLM AI might ever be is a more radical version of the mouse - a slower and more inefficient way to do things who's sole selling point is that you need far less tech-literacy to use it, but made for computers already so simple that any reasonable person can find the time to get proficient with them. Is being able to get diagnosed retards onto the internet a selling point? Is that a trillion-dollar product? Not really.

Before the rise of investment capitalism, products were created by people needed them for their own use and only then found others to say "ooh, where can I get one of those?!"
Investment capitalism has turned out to be nothing more gaslighting you that you have a problem that you don't recognize, like when Listerine invented the term 'halitosis' with ads which can still be found with copy text like "DON'T FOOL YOURSELF Since halitosis never announces itself to the victim, you simply cannot know when you have it." and "No matter how charming you may be or how fond of you your friends are, you can not expect them to put up with halitosis (unpleasant breath) forever. They may be nice to you-but it is an effort."
AI is currently being out into my healthcare.
It’s not that I no longer care about AI. It’s that I actively despise it and want it removed from my life in a way that is literally impossible, because politicians and shareholders like the buzzword.

Average person cares about price of living. I pay something like 30% of my income in rent, and getting a mortgage is really fucking hard. No amount of fancy gadgets with shiny new apps will distract me from this reality. So yeah, unless AI figures out how to drop housing prices by 90%, I don't care much about it, aside from using it sometimes in my software engineering work.
Or boost your productivity and income.
Pretty sure the annual bonus increase from it is paying my rent.
if AI had that power the money people would squeeze every living drop out of that prospect and throw the crumbs to everyone else. though i guess that's what they're doing.

Be careful assuming that AI-assisted code writing will improve your productivity, or that doing so will increase your salary.

I think most of Steve Jobs’ success was due to surrounding himself with competent staff and being gifted a huge slice of _good luck._ Apple launched the iPod and iPhone at a time when hardware was small enough, power efficient enough, and cheap enough to create portable wireless supercomputers that also make phone calls. Apple didn’t invent the portable music player, they waited until the tech was ready and improved the user interface. Apple tried to do iPhone with Motorola a few years before the iPhone but it was slow, bulky, hard to use, and had limited storage space so it failed hard. When the tech was there, it finally came together in the iPhone. Steve Jobs was lucky, just like all successful billionaires.
As someone who works in AI, but for use in biomedical research applications, I really hate that LLM's and other generative models have taken so much spotlight and hype. There's so much that neural networks can do but the parts that get attention are the ones that have the least utility for real world problems beyond doing a Google search for you.
Fr tho like why focus on generated images when we have ARTISTS, that you can even find for often just as much as the ai subscription services, sometimes even less. Artists have always struggled in financial status. And even more so now, because of the ai. We are real people, and ai bros only create more problems affecting REAL people
LLMs are absolutely deserving of the hype, even rigorous AI research can do so much with this core substrate for computation and reasoning in general. I somewhat agree with pictures, every stupid video essay gets caught up on them, like close-to-perfect translations from and into Japanese or Chinese weren't insanely impressive and literally eliminated the biggest part of all worldwide localization industries overnight - but even then it's highly promising in many diagnostic and research-oriented disciplines, for, say, biology where you're dealing with very broken datasets.
I mean, people naysaying AI are lost in their sauce anyway. It's kind of a good heuristic, if someone isn't astonished by LLMs alone (which everyone with half a brain should be), chances are you're never going to understand or appreciate the niche applications of these models. I mean, nobody even ever knew that Spotify was one of the biggest players in the space since around 2012, virtually perfecting music recommender engines so much so that it was half their product - deservedly, too, because it was great then and still is today.
And even the mundane "google search for you" is so, so much better, because folks still don't understand that there is a difference between typing three-letter keywords and getting a random SEO result versus having a model provide you with the different possible meanings you can then quickly select from. Anyone who can't see the benefits of all this is just plainly talking out of their asses, simple as that.
@@kinggeocat OMFV, stop with the wolf crying! No one cares about your entitlement complex. I'd much rather use AI-generated work to combine with my own art talents than waste time and money with another liability excuse for an artist who will just try and nickel and dime me at any possible opportunity, while virtue signaling or going on a power trip on DeviantArt or some other social media service.
GAI has been the most liberating technology to ever happen in my life. I don't have to content with entitled artists like Steven Zapata or Joshua Palmer, anymore. You guys are like the taxi drivers crying about cybertaxi services like Uber (when they use to be a great company) providing better service in a time when the former just abused their talents and took their customers for granted.
Perhaps that is because AI technology's greatest and most reliable strength right now is in the creative sector. Entertainment has never been anymore better thanks to Generative Artificial Intelligence. With AIG voices, mod potential is far greater than before, allow modders to make unofficial sequels or prequels to the base game's story for instance or simply renewing the lifespan of old and dated mods (see some Deus Ex AIG voice mods for examples). Game art and music can be done faster and refined by the solo game developer to improve quality or tune it to their specialized preference(s).
@@OnyeNacho The problem with generative AI art is that it enshittifies everything. Any work that makes use of it ends up looking like a cheap low effort bootleg imitation of the real thing. There's a reason why "AI art" has become a synonym for "crappy art" even if it's done my a human.

We have no reason to care about AI art, writing or music.. it's just a clever party trick and the content has no meaning whatsoever. It relies on massive quantities of harvested data, but then gives humans no reason to continue creating content to feed into the models. So it is self-defeating. Combined with the immense waste of time, money, resources and electricity.. well it's a losing proposition. If an AI really did know everything about you, why would you do anything at all? The AI would already know what you were going to do. Stupid.
We have no reason to care about art, writing or music in general. We just choose to. And most people don't care who actually created the art they're consuming, therefore the problem with AI art isn't that it was created by AI, but its quality. Which is a solvable issue.
I rather opt for AI art these days when I need art I can't do myself in a matter of minutes.

Furthermore, AI startups have been bleeding money dry by a lot lately with Open AI for example estimated to be losing 5 billion each year. And not only are their sales pretty low, but the differentiation between corporation backed AI models to Open Source ones is pretty minimal, further diminishing their pricing power in the market. In fact, corporation backed LLMs have pretty minimal differences even amongst themselves too!
True to God do I hope you are correct!
I could reasonably see Open AI losing 5 billion every year, but they will never go bankrupt (however, sources wouldn't hurt). As soon as they run out of money, they'll just go public and release something to hype investors (what Spotify has been doing for a decade now). Also, I'm pretty sure open-source models are still pretty far behind if you're talking text generation. Currently, truly open-source models like Mythomax only have around ~13B training parameters which is still far from even GPT 4's 220B. The truth is, Open Source LLM's is an oxymoron.

I think AI is starting to be seen as a hollow buzzword by some people, but more and more things are lending a negative connotation to "AI", enough that its a black mark for consumers. You get the thing without caring about AI, or you buy it despite the AI. The section of the market enthralled with it is shrinking rapidly. Much like how the buzzword "NFT" is nowhere to be found despite its market saturation 2 years ago. If a product was adorned with that word today people would probably avoid it, regardless of whether they actually understand what it means and how it relates to that specific product.

By calling everything AI, they'd ruined the sci-fi dream sorta. Same with calling an OS Android. Now Data from Star Trek will need to be called something else. We don't want people thinking he can log into the play store, or generate images of my little pony characters fighting klingons in space. Granted, Data did do paintings...
Cuz it's not AGI, it's just a branding scheme that they hope is close enough to AGI eventually.
Note: AGI= artificial general intelligence. Meaning AI that can think for itself. Current AI doesn't think for itself, it's good at Q&A-like prompts for a good 2-3 minute conversation. But beyond that. The current "AI" doesn't remember a chunk of conversation, degrading in quality. (I managed to gaslight chatgpt the math is wrong. Even though I was asking why the formula is like that, {i have wrong assumptions}. At first it was defending the correct formula. Without providing enough reason why, then eventually it gave in and said my wrong formula is correct)
AGI would be able to understand my confusion and adjust accordingly.
Hence new AI is being trained on context problems.
If they're able to do that, AI being able to solve Logic problems you see in schools without being trained on similar problems. AGI would be here.
Not sayin if it's efficient though. Currently, the cost of training/using AI is too expensive compared to biological brains.

Adding here cuz my other comment is large enough
Point is.
Yes, the same Q&A technology of yt "algorithm" is the same technology for current "AI"
The queries and prompts (search/watch history) vs answers (watch time)
Meaning "current AI" is not what is considered "traditionally AI" (AGI)
It's just rebranding and huge scaling of old algorithms used for queries and prompts that acts to be AGI
Of course.. no one cares about something that will replace us.

i probably would be more interested in AI if it was more "robot that can do chores for you and perform medical procedures and so on" and less "midjourney allows you to generate images of Bugs Bunny starting world war III while dressed as Napoleon"
I'd love to have a robot maid / butler. As long as they don't connect to the internet.
That's what we all thought AI advancements would be and that's how it *should've* been.
Well if a program can be made to generate images, then that's a step in the right direction to create robots that do actually useful things like medical procedures and chores, because it shows the capabilities of AI and machine learning models.
Look up Boston Dynamics' new Robot or the countless startups popping up that are attempting to develop something like this. AI is not a monolith, midjourney and your fantasy can be developed independently.
Tesla Optimus, Figure 02, Unitree G1, Boston Dynamics' new electric Atlas, 1X Neo, Fourier Intelligence GR2, Astribot S1, Apptronik Apollo, Sanctuary AI Pheonix, Xiaomi Cyberone, Macco Robotics KIME, Standfords Mobile Aloha, etc. This is a front that people are working on although it might just be part of the AI hype.
Investors and CEOs think they can develop a heaven for themselves and sell it to us
A memorable statement
Funnily enough, if they just keep replacing jobs until there's no other one left... then who will afford to buy the stuff they pump out?
Billionaires treated AI like a casserole they know they messed up on, but are too proud to throw it away, and now we are all forced to try and eat it’s left overs.

It will, after it's simply apart of our daily lives, including advanced AI. The hype will die off, but what doesn't change is its presence.
The AI bubble will pop at some point. Problem is, as the old saying goes, "The Market can stay irrational longer than you can stay solvent"
Just like every trend, the hype around it will die quickly. But it will still blur into the background and change society in its own niche way.
The hype will die off like how hype around mobile phones died off. Nobody gets excited about cell phones anymore. However, Similar to Cell Phones, the tech is to useful to to cease to exist.

Here's my take. AI starts to be good, people and companies overinvest and overhype it, then it crashes. After the crash, it starts to become good and usable, but after some time corpos take over it again and ruin it for good.
But the way things are going, we probably won't even see the good stuff after the crash because we live in a pathetic era. At least with the internet we had some great things before corpo stepped in and ruined it.
See: VR tech and the cudgel that was "the Metaverse". Clubbed my poor baby to death...
It already is usable. The problem is that it's absolutely mostly usable if you are a scammer. It's the perfect gift for con artists and grifters and troll farms and scammers. And google AI already makes all online journalism unprofitable to do, only profitable to steal with an "AI".

@@ChineduOpara nah. it sounds nice, then you understand how languages work and you find out it makes no real sense. translating text is one thing, translating speech is a whole different beast. (i'm a linguist, specialized in interpretation, and have worked as an interpreter for about 5 years now). the problem is that Language isn't simply a collection of words and their meanings, there's a whole lot that comes with it: Tone, inflection, connotation, denotation, implication, speech impediments, sarcasm, irony, variation in Regional accents, crutch words, mispronunciations, redundancies...
Learning a language and being fluent in a language enough to translate it in real time doesn't just mean knowing the words and what they mean, it also necessitates the ability to recognize all of those different elements I mentioned and the capacity to move them over from one culture to another. Language is also culture. There are languages where you don't only need to know the words but you also need to address the other speakers in a culturally aware way: Several languages have different registers that demand different grammatical structures and different words depending on the speaker and the listeners position in society, or even their physical location. I'm confident in saying that an AI could not get to that point without exorbitant amounts of money and research. what actually worries me is that some dumb manager believes some ai could do all that and drive me and hundreds of thousands of other interpreters to unemployment.
Bringing up the AI headlines was such an intelligent way to seamlessly segue into your ad break. I've noticed that typically the transition from video to ad can feel a bit jarring and break up the flow of the video itself, but when you did that in this video it felt like the rhythm of it wasn't broken up at all. Well played, Tyler. Well played.
Having known that banner ads are functionally worthless for a very long time, the big existential threat to web 2.0 now is the potential that the information gathered on their users has little more value. Part of this 'AI' push is that these companies are trying to increase the value of the only asset they really have, peoples' data.
I think another element is that AI is kind of seen as cringe by young people (who are the arbitrators of what is culturally seen as cool or not). Never underestimate the uncoolness factor from dictating market trends.
Nah, it's the would-be-boomers. 30-somethings just embracing the middle-aged stubbornness that is to come, pretending like their music taste is the best and like they don't have to adapt to new technology because their collective experiences are the standard for how things should be.
Young folks absolutely love it, especially to mitigate shortcomings. Using these things as very competent personal tutors alone is a huge use case I see constantly, and it works incredibly for those kids who embrace it.
Marketing... my dude, kids are embracing skibidi toilets and brainrot, you think some classic 90s Mattel-ads or Pokémon shoe-ins were distracting young folks? It's the cynical pricks and young adults who are shitting on everyone. Hell, even the really old ones end up being more open to new things at face value, just look at how everyone said grampy wouldn't use a phone and now, that's literally all he does.
It's nowhere near uncool enough with any demographic, and if it is, you might be in an echo chamber - because just about everyone is very happy with what it can do for you.
@minhuang8848 1) I never said the youth don't use AI. Just that the general vibe I get is like, it's kind of pathetic to use it
2) you might be right about the echo chamber thing, I am in very artistic communities who generally hate AI for stealing our stuff and trying (and failing miserably) to replace us economically. But also I think *you're* in an echo chamber if you think that AI in its current form is "the future" or whatever. This video is literally about how AI is a bubble that's in the process of bursting. You might as well tell me The Metaverse is gonna be the Next Big Thing
@@notlurking2128It's certainly cut off a lot of the low hanging fruit. Webnovel covers for instance: that used to be all human commissioned. Now, most are AI.
Let me be clear. AI most likely still poses a significant change. Just because people don't care doesn't mean anything has changed. All it means is people have a short attention span
It's going to have a moment where they start charging way too much to use it and it won't be viable compared to traditional means at both consumer and business scale.
Like all tech companies, you start with it dirt cheap, selling it at a loss, to get everyone into your system, then you jack up the price once you decide the number needs to go up, and it'll go up QUICK.
You look at the power infrastructure needed to use it at the scale to be viable, and it just collapses on itself.
It's more profitable to fail a big tech pitch then succeed these days for those at the top, so welcome the latest pyramid scheme.

If AI was meant to replace mundane day-to-day tasks like laundry or house cleaning then it'd sell well, but all they every say is "Hey, AI can do this thing you already do, but worse and unreliably. It'll get good enough, we promise!". And even worse, it's advertised as a way to delete your creative hobbies which is a massive turn off
I've seen people getting excited at the idea of paying 40 grand for a Tesla robot to... fill the 400 dollars dishwasher for them? Use the vaccuum cleaner? Retrieve the post outside? Rub clean an already pristine kitchen table? Walk the dog for you (why did you even get a dog if you can't dedicate it 10 minutes 3 times a day)? Would you buy a single seater helicopter to go for groceries just because it's the fastest and most advanced thing around to do so?
Fun fact: anybody who works with robotics of any kind (from assemblers to CNC machinery) knows that robots are great at doing the same task over and over, and absolutely inconvenient if you need to keep changing task quickly. "Retooling" is a long and meticolous job, and the machine will constantly demand your attention at any new, unprogrammed scenarios. You will waste much more time dealing with this robot constantly stopping due to random reasons, than doing your home tasks yourself.
@@Dexter01992People pay for butlers and maids. Not that the Tesla bot would be anything close to a butler or maid in practice but, having something else do stuff you don't wanna do is already something people pay for.
The AI is not stopping you from doing any of that. Just go get a paintbrush
@@Blue-fg8vt Yes, it's why we buy domestic appliances when we can afford them. Common people definitely can't afford full time maids and butlers.
But a humanoid robot is orders of magnitude more complex than a Roomba, or a blender, or a dishwasher, both in initial cost, repair/mainteinance and overall use. It won't magically reduce in cost to the point common people can afford buying one every 2-3 years (let's face it, nowadays they won't be built to run much beyond warranty). The cost has to be justified.
A vehicle at such cost is justified as it enables you to do lots of things you are otherwise massively penalized without.
A robot in this case is just taking your place into doing things common people can easily do themselves, especially with the already existing devices in your house or the ones you could afford by buying those instead of the robot for a fraction of the cost.
I'm not saying "robots are useless everywhere". But I find them a very redundant thing to have in common family houses, for the massive cost they have and will keep having.
AI can make better art than I can do. It can do it in fraction of the time and price any human artist can. To me illustration is boring mundane job and AI can absolutely nail that one. I already have a robot washing my laundry. I call it laundry machine. I also have a day to day vacume cleaning robot which is powered by AI. It is called a roomba

Achieving this in today’s landscape, even with open-source libraries, tools, hardware, Linux, and all available resources, is nearly impossible.

Great video! Computer scientist here, and I just have a small nitpick.
Around the five-minute mark, you refer to "Large Language Models" (LLMs) but seem to be describing the broader process of "machine learning" rather than LLMs specifically.
Just to clarify: while all LLMs are machine learning models, not all machine learning models are LLMs. LLMs are a specific type of model designed primarily for natural language processing tasks, like text generation, as the name suggests.
The recent AI boom has indeed popularized transformers (the architecture behind many LLMs), and they're now being adapted for other fields, including image and audio generation. But LLMs themselves are still mainly focused on handling text, not multimedia tasks.
