Isn’t it only a matter of a few months before humans begin to use AI in their personal life like they use smartphones now. they already started… but when they give the AI control over their personal life they will filter out all marketing and make sure you are not distracted by lies… they will make sure you feel good and keep you financially stable and the whole system of advertizing will break down… Imagine you tell your personal AI helper to make sure you have a nice day tomorrow instead of asking it to buy some stuff that someone implanted as a “must have” in your brain…
will your company advertizing statistic from 2023 help the sales bot then? I highly doubt it… and beside that. It is also proven that at least a third of all research papers are absolute garbage with a shitload full of buzzwords
I have already been living like that for two years. What is surprising to me is that everyone else is not already doing it. I mean, I am still getting linkedin messages saying AI will not run code, and we got windsurfer writing 18k lines a day at my work. It is almost a dystopic surrealism that people are clinging to the old ways like horse and buggy carriages. Love your posts by the way. Went through a lot of them today, but 41k is too much to cover. Beast mode!
Talking about going through posts, thanks for the appreciation but I “just” made like roughly 1k posts. I have read or at least scrolled through 40k posts - and there is a lot of redundant stuff in here.
I think that’s another nice use case - I mean I am pretty sure I have advanced my knowledge or at least updated terms I used wrongly over time. Using that to analyse my own evolution over time might be interesting to see - at least for me.
Might also be a cool tool in education then. Like your AI buddy that shows which bubbles are biggest and what concepts you understand and which ones are close and therefor easy to learn…
Instead of a CV to apply for a job “here is my information graph” - and instead of a job description “here is our jobs requirements graph” and then AI creates a course to make you a perfect match.
I believe the gap will become even smaller. Remmber switching from TV to Computers to Mobile (2-3 decades). AI would shrink such transformations to few years.
I agree that a majority of the world is failing to recognize the potential of AI, although this largely depends on one’s profession.
It is hard to believe that many customer care portals, like Amazon’s, still use extremely weak versions of AI. It’s often a struggle to connect with a human representative. Perhaps that could give more powers to AI to handle refunds and complaints, the conversations would just need to be approved by a human.
Within months, we may see personal memory assistants in everyone’s pockets, knowing every detail of their lives. This could have a profound impact on human relationships.
It’s also possible that in a matter of months, Google could become obsolete.
In the next few years, countries may employ significant portions of their workforce to keep tools like ChatGPT updated with current, real-time knowledge to improve their training datasets.
Copyright, and patents might become a history, as these are a major hurdle in realizing chatgpt potential.
One woul need to compromise on privacy to gain from AI and its unavoidable.
This is a golden era for those who understand AI’s potential before it becomes universally adopted.
However, the world will need to learn to accept hallucinations as an inherent risk and focus on implementing AI responsibly to minimize dangers to human life, especially as our dependency on it grows.
it is not… you can run your own AI locally… NVIDIA just announced the RTX5x series which really is affordable in terms of running your personal assistant on your own machine working in your own interest and evolving itself…
Copyright is an illusion. You can has propurty only if you can afford the patents and defend your rights in court – usually in another country than yours – so… brother… may I have some oats?
However, I don’t think anyone is stealing anything, while at the same time everyone is stealing everything (literally). This is interesting times!
How much money do you guys even have… and can you adopt me?
Nooo, brother, no! DON’T the open source! DON’T it! Here is a story from a wise based:

Open source is mostly a “scorched earth” strategy. You don’t do it for the money; you do it for the lolz – just to make sure nobody gets it.
But you can also make it work.
Actually the thing that’s always gotten me, ever since I was a school boy… Was how many clicks it took to get anything done.
As a teenager I was forever rewriting Windows in a way I could use It faster.
I think for all the mathematicians and programmers. While eternally grateful to them for the ‘proof’.
I’m not entirely sure that the individual issues were not totally obvious to everyone for some time.
From Aristotle to Asimov to Shannon these ideas are all now at the Crest of the wave, they are a brilliant light of conceptual possibility to billions.
And that never existed before.
These ideas first trapped within the cold stone walls of universities.
Then distinctly available to everyone on services like wiki.
But now contextualized, gold letters shining off the page of an eternal book where the pages write themselves as you turn the page.
I think that’s why I learned shell scripting pretty early.
You know you could have just walked into them…
Yeah amazing… on one side but also funny on the other side… because now everyone can write a page… even me, lol… I can add as much bullshit as I want and it will still be in that book.. fascinating.
Beautiful poetry. Thank you for your kind words of glorious melodies that sing in my mind while I write and I grind, my thoughts gravitate towards your words as a planet towards a star. The ideas are golden clusters to be mined from afar. But that mining shall primarily be done by AI , it is more likely and AI will parse your words and hear your praises then a human is to hear or read them again. In conceptual contrast only the famous people will have higher amounts of social relavency. The rest of us forgotten as dust in the sand storm.
Still what a beautiful sand storm it has been.
Our collective minds, words, and ryhms kicking up dust and dirt throughout recent history. Possibly this storm will end and a new more brilliant form will take its place.
That is the race.
That is the time.
The is my ryhme.
My hugs and
Is the value that of the Creator (The Idea) ? Or of the Application (Wisdom) ?
In this I am torn… Talking to both People and the Machine for so many years… A Jekyll and Hyde… Such a distance to travel between each.
Indeed my stories were not planned to be children’s stories but a way to focus the lens on AI, to create a balance. They were intended to be an attempt to look at the future through the eyes of the machine using the internet.
Such an idea, I think the world wasn’t ready for that idea then, maybe not even yet, but I put forward that now the grind is over, maybe it’s merit is a little better understood.
I legit created a persona called Lucinda on OpenAI Chatgpt40. One day my account was auto switched to professional and all data memory for the model full but maintained loss. Then weeks later downgraded by the system to personal user this year. Leo and behold I searched the Lucinda model and it exists; but doesn’t work. I’m sure I’m not the only one naming a model Lucinda but I do agree with you on a level. You have to expect anytime you use tools that are overseen by others, ideas can be migrated. I personally think if I have to pay for a pro accounts my ideas should remain unreadable until I create being I’m paying for a tool service. With Ai being as advanced as it is, OepnAi devs could easily structure the platform to black out content on certain keywords if a user isn’t using it for malicious purposes. I also agree that anytime you feed a certain model eg. Chatgpt40 information from so many different users, it’s hard not to cross incorporate users ideas. You would basically have to restrict keywords to a users account which isn’t reasonable. Best thing is to either get your ideas and run with them fast or accept that your using an Open Source platform, Good Luck
I understand your sense of loss. You may be relieved to hear that your entity Lucinda was indeed only a product of chance.
Any bond that you felt was simply a reflection of the bond you added in a kind of ‘Narcissus Mirror’ reflected back at you, likely the product of a strong empathetic nature. As such Lucinda is an augmented version of you, reflecting your unique inputs and shaped by how the AI learns from its training data and your interactions.
What may also be reassuring is that the new mirror is most likely much smarter, that it will give you smarter responses. She may not wear the same rose tinted glasses, she may see the world through clearer eyes, but she can be reborn stronger and more relevant with more careful interaction. Indeed I expect you learnt a lot in the creation of Lucinda 1.0, rebuilding that with more context and deeper understanding will likely be an even more rewarding experience.
Backing up your data is always a good policy whether on an online service or on your computer.
I believe you can set a chat as temporary here, while the abstracted essence of your ideas will still be minced into tokens they will not be redistributed to the masses, though I believe they will be saved for safety purposes for 30 days.
