We never use AI. For anything

And we ne'er will.

It's that plain and simple.

Are you willing successful knowing more? Keep reading.

AI is designed to make you limited connected it

We are still successful the gravy train portion of the rug propulsion scam. AI is heavy subsidised by billionaires and monolithic corporates, who have been sold connected a mendacious committedness of replacing you, the person, replacing you, the worker, pinch a cleanable instrumentality enslaved that ne'er rests, never complains, and does everything it's told.

But what will hap erstwhile the investors commencement demanding returns, the free money runs out, the existent costs of moving AI models comes forward, and those that person been connected the hype train recognize the true limitations of AI? Those who person go limited connected it will be forced to commencement paying big. And the already obscene fortunes of AI Robber Barons will turn moreover further.

And that is not us. We worth independency and semipermanent planning.

Therefore, we cull the mendacious premise of the “AI Future.”

AI is not intelligent, and hallucinations are a feature

From self-prompting to aggregate agents talking to 1 different until they some agree, countless resources person been spent connected trying to correct AI hallucinations. However, hallucinations are inherent to the measurement AI, aliases Large Language Models much specifically, work, and they will ne'er beryllium fixed.

Large Language Models are thing but a fancy autocorrect. Where they disagree from your phone’s keyboard is the size of their memory, which they tin usage to foretell the imaginable adjacent word, based connected a huge database of erstwhile words. But that’s each it is, a prediction.

The AI doesn’t cognize aliases understand what it’s writing. Give the aforesaid AI the aforesaid prompt, and watch it springiness you 2 wholly different answers. It tin guess, but it will ne'er know. Fixing this would require a complete rebuilding of the measurement the Large Language Model operates.

AI is the astir successful con man successful history

“Funny really erstwhile I inquire AI astir thing I know, it’s completely wrong, But erstwhile I inquire it astir thing I don’t know, it gives a awesome answer.”

This is simply a paraphrasing of a station I saw connected Reddit a mates of weeks ago. In summation to what was written above, firm executives love AI because it is highly bully astatine 1 point - making you deliberation it knows what it’s talking about, and masterfully avoiding any accountability.

Just past week, conscionable for nosy and to support up pinch the newest developments, I tried asking 1 of the starring AIs, Claude specifically, to adhd a elemental characteristic to a hunt button. The requirements were simple: automatically attraction the section erstwhile it appears truthful the personification tin commencement searching correct away.

At first, it gave maine thing that seemed for illustration precisely what I wanted, and it moreover seemed to activity properly… astatine first.

When I inspected the codification much closely, I saw a monolithic chunk of code that did seemingly thing - variables being reassigned to themselves, delegates and coordinators being created and ne'er used, pointless two-way bindings that referenced 1 different convenience initializers that initialized 1 adaptable retired of ten, past silently failed.

Just for the nosy of it, I removed each the pointless codification that Claude conjured up, and asked: “Even without this code, the characteristic useful as it should. What is the constituent of each the useless code?”

And what I sewage backmost didn’t astonishment maine successful the slightest. “You’re perfectly right! The codification doesn’t request to beryllium there, but if you remove it, (the characteristic that the AI made up that was not successful the original spec astatine all) will not work.”

AI is awesome astatine lying. And that’s it.

AI is sidesplitting the situation and destroying people’s lives

Imagine a beautiful wood afloat of plants, animals, and various critters. A functioning ecosystem.

Now, pain it each down. Bulldoze the trees, pave complete the writer with monochromatic asphalt. And successful spot of an situation teeming with life, build a information halfway that disturbs the weather, devours only the astir pristine h2o to cool itself, and uses unbelievable amounts of energy to churn retired pages cipher will really ever read.

People surviving astir this kafkaesque analyzable will beryllium everlastingly tormented by sound they tin conscionable hardly hear. The h2o they request to unrecorded will go brownish and achromatic pinch ungraded and rust while the information halfway gets it successful their place. They won’t beryllium capable to ablution aliases get h2o retired of the tap, arsenic the unit needed will spell to pushing millions of liters into the useless facilities.

That is the astir wretched and perverted usage of immoderate exertion in caller years.

AI will lead to a tyrannical constabulary state

What will hap erstwhile the rug invariably gets pulled? Those data centers will commencement serving different purpose.

All astir the world, governments are assembling monolithic networks of cameras, “license sheet readers” that are suspiciously equipped with microphones delicate capable to perceive successful connected your conversations, and different unimaginable surveillance devices.

All that computing powerfulness built up nether the guise of bringing about the “AI future” will commencement being utilized to spy connected you, travel your every movement, perceive to each your calls, and more.

Much of this infrastructure has already been established.

• PRISM
• MARINA
• OAKSTAR
• STORMBREW
• Dishfire
• Main Core
• Dropmire
• Stateroom
• Five Eyes
• ECHELON
• And galore much we know, and don’t know, about.

Once those information centers are sitting idle, erstwhile the commuting powerfulness is not being utilized to churn retired unbelievable amounts of useless slop, it will beryllium utilized to supercharge these already existing programs.

Nobody knows what AI moreover is

AI has go a catch-all word for immoderate strategy tends to be generative and produces unpredictable outputs that cannot be replicated.

“AI pictures” this, “AI text” that. If it produces slop, it’s AI.

It’s nary wonderment that group deliberation that. A batch of the AI devices bundle together galore unrelated technologies, trading them arsenic a azygous “AI” product.

But if we peek nether the hood, we will see:

• Text generators? Those are actually Large Language Models, thing but fancy autocorrects
• Image generators? Diffusion Models that return random sound and effort to recreate a image by grouping surrounding pixels together
• Image classifiers? They’re a exertion that has been almost unchanged for the past 20 years, and has thing to do pinch the existent conception of “AI.” Optical Character Recognition has been a point for decades, and useful arsenic good arsenic it did backmost then, arsenic it does now.

And nary of it tin logic aliases think. And it ne'er will.

Only group are intelligent, creative, tin of existent thought. We can’t fto this unsocial gift spell to waste.
