A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

AI has hype but this is just braindead-take clickbait
AGI is not character.ai's niche
characters are
Their tools are super useful for making characters for vids, NPCs, etc
But if you are trying to cure cancer or prove Fermat's Last Therem you are working with OpenAI or Anthropic... not freaking characterAI
I don’t think you’re working with OpenAI to cure cancer. I think you’re working with actual scientists rather than statistical regurgitations.
I meant, if you are a scientist working on curing cancer.
I wonder if you keep up with that field. I am not an expert but I attend their colloquia

You cured cancer with OpenAI?
Can't wait to hear that story. When is the Nobel prize ceremony?
AI is used in many medical contexts, especially as an excellent pattern matching machine. Throw one shitloads of cancer cell pics or xrays or whatever, let it learn how to recognize. OpenAI is more than what we plebs access on ChatGPT.
