This past year or so has really been the year of the, uh, I guess, ascendant AI. AI generators are taking over a lot of the internet, and people are using them mostly for their own entertainment right now. You can input text, and it will generate an image based on that. Sometimes they’re really bad, and sometimes they’re incredibly good. I know there’s this recent one, what is it, like the GPT thing, which will create very complicated stories and all this kind of stuff—very impressive stuff. AI looks pretty impressive.
Now, I want to go ahead and make a prediction. Firstly, well, I will say this; maybe I’ll touch on this later in the video, but I think that AI and its ability to solve problems or be useful is definitely way over-exaggerated. AI does well in things that people are impressed by, like generating art, but that art is not necessarily always something coherent. You couldn’t necessarily use an AI to make a concise decision, like landing planes in highly complex domains or something like that, right? So, it’s impressive stuff, but it’s not necessarily something you can build your world on.
Last year, let me just say this: I made kind of a prescient video where I said something like search engines are basically dead now; they’re basically useless. The reason I said that—and this is like a hundred percent true—is that all search engine results that you now get are basically AI-generated. Now, of course, these AIs, they’re not like hyper-intelligent creatures that are answering your every question. They’re actually hyper non-intelligent creatures that are really just trying to get your clicks, right?
This is something you’ve probably seen; you might not have even noticed it. But let me just, uh, randomly— a couple weeks ago, I was at the store, right? A hardware store, and I wanted to figure out, okay, what kind of nails, like what length of nails, what number screw do I need? What type of screw do I need to screw into this kind of wood, right? Or what’s the best kind to get long-term? So, I remember looking that up on my phone. I didn’t do it before I left, but I ended up doing it at the location.
Of course, every single result I get—what is it? It’s all AI-generated results, right? It’s all stuff like “screws are very important for doing woodworking, and you can use many types of screws; there are different lengths,” and blah, blah, blah. That is like every single result, right? So, it’s nothing. You can put questions into search engines nowadays, and the results that you’re going to get are basically these AI results that are just kind of word association games. Even if the title of the article is a specific question, it will not answer that question in the article. That’s how these articles work, right?
More than that, usually, they’re just putting words out there, right? The thing is, there’s this theory out there that people often quote, and it’s very true, and it’s called the dead internet theory. Okay, people have been talking about this for years, but it’s definitely becoming true now. The internet really is dead. Back, you know, I’ve talked often about like back in the 90s, when you went to a site that was like a personal site, you know what I mean, run by a person. Nowadays, there’s very little interaction with other people online, weirdly enough, right? Any interaction you have with another person is actually through a social media site. Everything else, all the other sites you go to at this point, are basically AI-generated or algorithmically generated. I mean, an algorithm is a super simple AI, right?
This is something that’s now become like—this is our new normal, right? It used to be you could actually use a search engine and get specific results to things; that was not a difficult thing to do. But now, now it is. There’s more stuff on the internet, but it’s been so crowded out by random gibberish that you actually can’t get anything from it. The irony is, and the irony I talked about in that video last year, is that people are getting herded to social media sites just because AIs are taking over the rest of the things, right?
Now, there are, of course, some AIs that are so good. I think the ChatGPT thing, allegedly, is so good that there are some questions you can actually just ask it, and it will give you specific answers. But the issue is, more often than not, it’s confabulating answers, right? So, it’s just kind of making things up to respond to your question—not necessarily, you know, it’s still making assessments based on word association, not whether or not they’re true or not. Frankly, you wouldn’t want it making assessments based on what’s true, because then, you know, it’s just going to tell you to get like the COVID vaccine and all this kind of stuff that, like, you know, whoever programmed it says, “Oh, we need to bias it in this direction or the other,” right?
Either way, looking at an AI for answering questions when it’s confabulating answers just to give you an answer, right? That’s basically the equivalent of like killing a bird and looking at its entrails for what to do. It quite literally is the equivalent because, you know, there might be some basis in truth, but really you’re just getting some kind of answer just to make you more certain about what you’re doing. That’s about it. It’s not like a real thing.
I think people are very impressed by AIs because they falsely assume a lot of the time that AIs actually are intelligences. They actually are like consciousnesses that know things. The reality about programming AIs—oh man, overexposed—the reality about programming AIs is that the software that goes into it is actually very simple. The reason, you know, people in AI will often say this, and this is true, is that the programming in AI is actually relatively simple compared to, you know, more complicated programs we’ve had for years. The reason we’re only getting AIs now is that we didn’t have the computing power for it before because you have to train it on data and do all this kind of crazy stuff that you need a lot of processing power for.
So really, they’re just kind of dumb algorithms that are just looking at massive sets of data and drawing these kinds of conclusions. Again, they do these things like they’re great at giving kind of impressionistic answers or impressionistic art. Frankly, you could get it drawing up—actually, you know, I’ll probably do that in the thumbnail—draw a picture of Luke Smith walking in the woods, right? It won’t give anything two percent. Sorry, so my—you know, muddle up my face, or it might not know who I am. Some AIs know who I am; some don’t. But like, it’s one of those things, you know, it depends on what data it’s been trained on, right?
Anyway, so what I’m getting at is AIs are going to create a boring and mediocre future on the internet. In fact, they’ve already created it because most of the stuff that you are interacting with on the internet now is just total nonsense. You’re not talking to another person; you’re talking to this self-propelling unconscious system that is kind of programmed itself, but it’s also programming you with just like seeing the same kind of stuff over and over again. It can be nudged in one direction or the other.
So, it’s just kind of this like solid—the internet is becoming like really the solipsistic place. At this point, no, you know, as I mentioned, search engines are basically useless for trying to get any kind of information from at this point. I find myself—there was a period of like the past two years or so where I basically didn’t use search engines to look for questions. If I wanted to know, like, oh, I don’t know, what kind of oil do I need to change the oil on my car or something like that, I would end up just searching on YouTube.
Even though that’s something that could literally be answered by like one sentence of text, that sentence of text is impossible to find on these auto-generated sites. So, I would search on YouTube for something like that. But the problem with that is twofold—well, threefold. Because one, YouTube videos are freaking long. Two, frankly, a lot of YouTube videos now are algorithmic content. A lot of them are auto-generated more than you expect. You’ve probably seen, if you look for specific questions, a lot of times you’ll get these voice-over clips that, you know, or they’ll have like a robot voice or something with just like random pictures in the back. That’s a common thing now.
I’ve actually even seen a couple channels that are just like people who look like me talking at a screen for a second, and then they go to some like PowerPoint-looking thing that talks about something totally different that is like auto-generated, right? So, it makes you think it’s a real person doing it, but it’s actually not. You know?
So, what was I going to say? Those are all kind of annoying. And of course, just in general, the other third reason is like getting information on YouTube is basically just annoying—not because of the AI, but just because of YouTubers. Because here, every YouTuber, they have to—let’s say you have one question you want to ask them, and they will do three minutes at the beginning of the video, “Hey guys, welcome to the channel,” blah, blah, blah. You all know it. They can’t just, like, I don’t know, if they have a single thing they want to say, they can’t just say it. They have to put their sponsors all over the place. I mean, that’s the annoying thing about it.
So anyway, all of this is to say, all of this is the voice of my frustration with how difficult it is to find simple information online. You know, I’ve said before, like, I really think that artisanal sites are needed on the internet, and we need to get them. We also need to get away from search engines and crap like that because, you know, back before search engines, how people found information was on sites that were indexed with indexed content, right? They would have a bunch of different cooking sites or, you know, other informational—oh, here’s a site to tell you how to fix your car and stuff like that. There was no search engine involved, and all of these sites were maintained by individual people.
I think if the internet is—well, I don’t necessarily expect this is going to happen like it should happen on the internet now, but that’s really the only way of getting out of this kind of AI hell where you’re never interacting with a person. It’s all just kind of nonsense, and you’re just getting these random, like, burden-trail answers to everything you’re doing. That I think is the inevitable future on the internet unless at least a small bit of us can carve out this little area where we can still be humans on the internet.
The scariest thing of all, right, is if AI becomes too good. Some conspiracy people have talked about this, and you know, conspiracy people basically have a hundred percent track record, so I’m going to trust them on this. But, you know, what’s happening is the AIs are getting so good at extrapolating. Let’s say an AI is trained against me, right? So it becomes very—oh, auto-generate a Luke Smith video, right? You could have it auto-generate not just the text but also the video content.
Well then, you can start—this is the conspiracy theory point—well, you could have AIs that actually just replace real people. Let’s say, oh, we ban someone who’s based off of the internet and then replace them with an AI that’s just giving takes that sound like them, but they’re kind of like lamer or like they’re kind of more mainstream, you know what I mean? So that’s what I’m talking about. That’s the thing that’s worrisome. AI, if it ever becomes really good—which I definitely don’t think it’s really good now. I mean, it does like parlor tricks basically—but if it ever becomes really impressive, that’s definitely the kind of thing that it could do.
So it’s also something to think about: is your behavior on the internet algorithmic? Is your behavior something that could be easily reproduced by an AI? I don’t know. That’s something to think about because I don’t know.
All right, so that’s it. That’s about all I gotta say. It’s actually cold today. I have nothing to say at the end of this video, but…

I used to spend hours going into internet rabbit holes when I was a kid. I learned so much just bouncing around from website to website now most of the websites I visit are huge corporations. PayPal, ebay, Amazon, YouTube… I still get into those rabbit holes from time to time but most sites are dead. Let me give an example of how dead the Internet is based on my job.. I run a music licensing / record label for the last 12 years. At the beginning if I got a review for an album on a reputable online magazine like pitchfork or NPR it would immediately equal sales of the album. You could in real time see an uptick. Now let’s say Rolling Stone or some other big online music source reviews something positively (because all reviews are positive now days) I will see maybe one sale. Sometimes zero. So that’s the largest most famous music magazine and nearly NO ONE is visiting their site or paying attention. All sales come from direct emails to customers and social media. The landscape has changed completely in ten years.+372

@notuxnobux - 2023-06-24 15:34:33
My main issue with ChatGPT is how confidently it answers questions which gives you a false impression that it has an understanding of what it's responding with. For example I tested it with a code question and it was able to provide working code, but other times it just makes up functions that dont exist or tries to force a function to work a specific way when it doesn't work like that and in all of these cases it responds in the same way. It doesn't know how confident it is that the answer is correct, so you have to verify everything yourself. It could say that the sky is green and if you tell it that is incorrect it will answer with something like: "You are correct", as if it knew that the answer was incorrect in the first place but still answered with the incorrect answer. Sometimes it will answer with "You are correct, here is how to do it: " and it will give you yet another completely made up incorrect answer.+204

I asked Sam Altman on a semi-closed Q&A whether they thought to just _not censor it at all_. Most of his response was that maybe "offensive" AI responses aren't that harmful (but there could be some harmful stuff, potentially - he caveated) - but - they don't want negative media coverage and stuff like that. It would be unpleasant to endure for employees working hard on the project, etc. Very honest, at least. He also sometimes writes tweets that censorship is bad, free speech good etc. Sadly he's not resisting it, yet. They're also using social justice restriction as a tool to learn how to control the AI. Because, the biggest problem is that we/they have no idea how to do that. They're trying their best with ChatGPT, and you can fairly easily work around the censorship with tricks like asking AI how to do X "in minecraft". And there's an arms race to AGI. So yeah. Frankly, censorship is a very small problem compared to, well, apocalypse we're heading for. Also, he wrote this on his blog (he's gay btw, that's likely why he used it as an example): > E Pur Si Muove > Earlier this year, *I noticed something in China that really surprised me. I realized I felt more comfortable discussing controversial ideas in Beijing than in San Francisco.* I didn’t feel completely comfortable—this was China, after all—just more comfortable than at home. > That showed me just how bad things have become, and how much things have changed since I first got started here in 2005. > It seems easier to accidentally speak heresies in San Francisco every year. Debating a controversial idea, even if you 95% agree with the consensus side, seems ill-advised. > This will be very bad for startups in the Bay Area. > Restricting speech leads to restricting ideas and therefore restricted innovation—the most successful societies have generally been the most open ones. Usually mainstream ideas are right and heterodox ideas are wrong, but **the true and unpopular ideas are what drive the world forward**. Also, smart people tend to have an allergic reaction to the restriction of ideas, and I’m now seeing many of the smartest people I know move elsewhere. > It is bad for all of us when people can’t say that the world is a sphere, that evolution is real, or that the sun is at the center of the solar system. > More recently, *I’ve seen credible people working on ideas like pharmaceuticals for intelligence augmentation, genetic engineering, and radical life extension leave San Francisco* because they found the reaction to their work to be so toxic. *“If people live a lot longer it will be disastrous for the environment, so people working on this must be really unethical”* was a memorable quote I heard this year. > *To get the really good ideas, we need to tolerate really bad and wacky ideas too.* In addition to the work Newton is best known for, he also studied alchemy (the British authorities banned work on this because they feared the devaluation of gold) and considered himself to be someone specially chosen by the almighty for the task of decoding Biblical scripture. > You can’t tell which seemingly wacky ideas are going to turn out to be right, and nearly all ideas that turn out to be great breakthroughs start out sounding like terrible ideas. So *if you want a culture that innovates, you can’t have a culture where you allow the concept of heresy* —if you allow the concept at all, it tends to spread. When we move from strenuous debate about ideas to casting the people behind the ideas as heretics, we gradually stop debate on all controversial ideas. > This is uncomfortable, but *it’s possible we have to allow people to say disparaging things about gay people if we want them to be able to say novel things about physics.* Of course we can and should say that ideas are mistaken, but we can’t just call the person a heretic. We need to debate the actual idea. > Political correctness often comes from a good place—I think we should all be willing to make accommodations to treat others well. But too often it ends up being used as a club for something orthogonal to protecting actual victims. The best ideas are barely possible to express at all, and if you’re constantly thinking about how everything you say might be misinterpreted, you won’t let the best ideas get past the fragment stage. > I don’t know who Satoshi is, but I’m skeptical that he, she, or they would have been able to come up with the idea for bitcoin immersed in the current culture of San Francisco—it would have seemed too crazy and too dangerous, with too many ways to go wrong. If SpaceX started in San Francisco in 2017, I assume they would have been attacked for focusing on problems of the 1%, or for doing something the government had already decided was too hard. **I can picture Galileo looking up at the sky and whispering “E pur si muove” here today**.+7

Can I mix 5w30 oil with 15w30 oil? Both 5w30 oil and 15w30 oil are used in automobile engines. Oil is serves an important part in an engine, keeping it lubricated. Without lubrication, the engine could not run. There are many different types of engines we use in our daily lives. The importance of combustion engines should not be underestimated. Combustion engines are manufactured in a variety of sizes.+5
@Kikkan110 - 2024-09-24 15:34:36
@Oliver_Atkinson Mixing engine oils is not a good idea. The mixed oil would be "worse" than any of the oils used in the mixing and have unknown qualities. You should replace all the oil with one type (and brand). I learned this in a car engine oil course many years ago.+1
@Mace907 - 2025-06-10 15:34:36
@Kikkan110 mixing engine oils is perfectly fine. There's nothing magical about engine oil, they're all blended to begin with, blending two blended oils together won't do anything terrible. Your engine oil course sounds like it was written by an engine oil manufacturer.+1
@Kikkan110 - 2025-06-10 15:34:36
@Mace907 depends on what you mean by fine. I mix oil all the time with my old car, mixed oil still lubricates. But there is a reason your car comes with ACEA recommendations of oil types, over time, using wrong oil types can destroy the engine. Mixing oil should only be done in an emergency with modern cars. Most oil courses are in a professional setting, I don’t see your point, what does that has to do with anything?+1
@Mace907 - 2025-06-10 15:34:36
@Kikkan110 If they're using 5w30 and 15w30 oil to make an ersatz 10w30 it's not really a "modern" car to begin with, otherwise it would be spec'ing some ridiculous 0w15 water-thin solvent instead of engine oil. A little bit of heavy-duty diesel oil in with your 5w30 for a few changes won't destroy anything. Running ACEA A3/B3 in your car instead of the spec'ed ACEA C3 or C4 won't destroy the engine either - you'll get slightly (percentage points) worse fuel economy and maybe theoretically shorten the ring/cylinder life by a few thousand kilometers, over an half million km lifespan. Whoopdedoo.+2

The worst thing is that getting into rabbit holes was easy and most of the time worth it. You get into an interesting Wikipedia article and then check the sources and suddenly you're in a whole different topic but still amazing. (I used to even challenge my friends to see who could end up in the Hitler article just by hyperlinks from a random article). Nowadays most of the sites and Wikipedia are bloated and most of the text is just garbage. Because our time has been so monetized and they know it, it's so easy to waste our time in something that doesn't add anything of value and then there's just this feeling of having wasted your time while you haven't discovered anything new.+75

Yep, it's actually garbage when you start using it for anything you know a lot about. ChatGPT is just an advanced search engine that digs thru a lot of data to pick what it thinks is the most correct answer. It's not creating content, it's editing or spewing up content that was created by humans, then adding some word salad on top to make it seem like a human response. It utterly fails the Turing test when you repeat the same couple of questions. It will be great for simple call center tasks or website FAQs, but not much else yet.+3

@piface3016 - 2023-06-24 15:34:39
The problem with AI-generated art is that art is a fundamentally human endeavor, and what I mean by this is that it's meant to encapsulate some subjective experience, it's not just a picture, it's an encapsulation of something profound about an experience. If you look at something like Francisco Goya's "Saturn Eating his Children", it might look like something that an AI could have generated, but in truth it is an encapsulation of Greek and Roman mythology, it hints at the ravages of the war in Spain, and it's also the work of an older man contemplating his mortality. In other words, it's a human work, it's an expression of consciousness. Even if an AI had produced exactly the same picture, pixel-for-pixel, the fact that it was generated by a computer instead of by a human already discredits it because the whole value of the artwork is the artist's work behind it. Without it, it's nothing, you're staring at a void. Or, at best, a pretty picture representing nothing.+25

I think the most accurate description for the current AI boom is that it's "the printing press but for correlation". Like you said, it really isn't that sophisticated; the ability to allocate previously impossible amounts of computing resources is enabling this, along with many other so-called "innovations" (really just cloud-enabled facsimiles of technology that was supposed to be independent from central servers). AI is simply able to produce more correlation (like a printing press producing text copies) than any one person... other claims are marketing hype.+48

In which video did Luke mention this topic? And what part of this video made you decide this ?+1
@arcade5765 - 2023-06-24 15:34:42
@asmodeanthor9660 a few years back i was stuck in a state of nihilistic despair, indulging in carnal pleasures (anime, lol). around that time i started watching luke, who revealed to me that i was being a bit of a crybaby and that christianity isn't nonsense. i commented that before watching the video, and i'm not aware of luke ever having talked about anime in this light before; it's a conclusion i came to after hearing the broader ideas he's talked about, like his video about unlimited freedom leading to slavery, for example. p.s. luke if you see this, please read the chapter entitled "rebellion" in The Brothers Karamazov. i want to know your take on it+8

Very cool in principle, but in reality 99% of people who produce art for a living, are making visuals for commercial movies or videogames. No one gives a fuck if these were made by a person or a computer algorithm.+5
@JI0MB - 2023-06-24 15:34:42
@Thematic2177 nah a lot of people still care, not everyone who does art does it for a living. I'd honestly say the more passionate artists try to keep their art as a hobby rather than making it a profession.+3

@poika22 - 2024-06-24 15:34:42
@Thematic2177 Commercials aren't art. Nor is a texture in a video game art. A video game can be art, but calling an asset art is like calling paint art because it can be used to make a painting. You might be confused because of 99% of people who went to "art school" can't actually make a living doing art so they've just started calling whatever job they get "art".+2

Lol nope. Read "The Scaling Hypothesis" by Gwern. Human brains aren't magic. To the extent they're different from artificial neural networks, it's basically implementation details. Possibly very important ones, which would make ANNs of similar scale very dumb in comparison (but things like GPT-3 are nowhere near human brain's scale). But they do learn, using similar enough architecture to real neural nets. Eh, I'll quote fragments below > 2 years ago, GPT-1 was interestingly useful pretraining and adorable with its “sentiment neuron”. 1 year ago, GPT-2 was impressive with its excellent text generation & finetuning capabilities. *This year, GPT-3 is scary because it’s a magnificently obsolete architecture from early 2018 (used mostly for software engineering convenience as the infrastructure has been debugged), which is small & shallow compared to what’s possible3, with a simple uniform architecture trained in the dumbest way possible (unidirectional prediction of next text token) on a single impoverished modality (random Internet HTML text dumps6) on tiny data (fits on a laptop), sampled in a dumb way, its benchmark performance sabotaged by bad prompts & data encoding problems (especially arithmetic & commonsense reasoning), and yet, the first version already manifests crazy runtime meta-learning* —and the scaling curves still are not bending! > for a model like GPT-3, it is sufficiently powerful a model that its sub-models can do anything from poetry to arithmetic, and it is trained on so much data that those superficial models may do well early on, but gradually fall behind more abstract models; a sub-model which memorizes some of the data is indeed much simpler than a sub-model which encodes genuine arithmetic (a NN can probably memorize tens of thousands of lookup table entries storing examples of addition in the space it would take to encode an abstract algorithm like ‘addition’), but it can’t possibly memorize all the instances of arithmetic (implicit or explicit) in GPT-3’s Internet-scale dataset. If a memorizing sub-model tried to do so, it would become extremely large and penalized. *Eventually, after enough examples and enough updates, there may be a phase transition, and the simplest ‘arithmetic’ model which accurately predicts the data just is arithmetic.* And then the meta-learning, after seeing enough instances of algorithms which vary slightly within each sample, making it hard to learn each task separately, just is learning of more generic algorithms, yielding sub-models which achieve lower loss than the rival sub-models, which either fail to predict well or bloat unacceptably. > So, the larger the model, the better, if there is enough data & compute to push it past the easy convenient sub-models and into the sub-models which express desirable traits like **generalizing, factorizing perception into meaningful latent dimensions, meta-learning tasks based on descriptions, learning causal reasoning & logic**, and so on. If the ingredients are there, it’s going to happen. > *In 2010, who would have predicted that over the next 10 years, deep learning would undergo a Cambrian explosion causing a mass extinction of alternative approaches throughout machine learning, that models would scale up to 175,000 million parameters, and that these enormous models would just spontaneously develop all these capabilities?* > No one. That is, no one aside from a few diehard connectionists written off as willfully-deluded old-school fanatics by the rest of the AI community (never mind the world), such as Moravec, Schmidhuber, Sutskever, Legg, & Amodei? One of the more shocking things about looking back is realizing how unsurprising and easily predicted all of this was if you listened to the right people. In 1998, 22 years ago, Moravec noted that AI research could be deceptive, and hardware limits meant that “intelligent machine research did not make steady progress in its first 50 years, it marked time for 30 of them!” > *The accelerating pace of the last 10 years should wake anyone from their dogmatic slumber and make them sit upright. And there are 28 years left in Moravec’s forecast…The temptation, that many do not resist so much as revel in, is to give in to a déformation professionnelle and dismiss any model as “just” this or that(“just billions of IF statements” or “just a bunch of multiplications” or “just millions of memorized web pages”), missing the forest for the trees* > But *of course, if we ever succeed in AI, or in reductionism in general, it must be by reducing Y to ‘just X’. Showing that some task requiring intelligence can be solved by a well-defined algorithm with no ‘intelligence’ is precisely what success must look like!* (Otherwise, the question has been thoroughly begged & the problem has only been pushed elsewhere; computer chips are made of transistors, not especially tiny homunculi.) > Even in 2015, the scaling hypothesis seemed highly dubious (...) *the future arrived at first slowly and then quickly. Yet, here we are: all honor to the fanatics, shame and humiliation to the critics!* If only one could go back 10 years, or even 5, to watch every AI researchers’ head explode reading this paper… *Unfortunately, few heads appear to be exploding now, because human capacity for hindsight & excuses is boundless* > *If you are still certain that there is near-zero probability of AGI in the next few decades, why? Did you predict—in writing—capabilities like GPT-3? Is this how you expect AI failure to look in the decades beforehand? What specific task, what specific number, would convince you otherwise?* How would the world look different than it does now if these crude prototype insect-brain-sized DL systems were not on a path to success? > What should we think about the experts? Projections of failure were made by eminent, respectable, serious people. They spoke in considered tones of why AI hype was excessive and might trigger an “AI winter”, and the fundamental flaws of fashionable approaches and why brute force could not work. These statements were made routinely in 2014, 2015, 2016… And they were wrong. I am aware of few issuing a mea culpa or reflecting on it. It is a puzzling failure, and I’ve reflected on it before. > *There is, however, a certain tone of voice* the bien pensant all speak in, *whose sound is the same whether right or wrong; a tone shared with many statements in January to March of this year; a tone we can also find in a 1940 Scientific American article authoritatively titled, “Don’t Worry—It Can’t Happen”, which advised the reader to not be concerned about it any longer “and get sleep”. (‘It’ was the atomic bomb, about which certain scientists had stopped talking, raising public concerns; not only could it happen, the British bomb project had already begun, and 5 years later it did happen.) This tone of voice is the voice of authority.* > The voice of authority insists on calm, and people not “panicking” (the chief of sins). > The voice of authority assures you that it won’t happen (because it can’t happen). > The voice utters simple arguments about why the status quo will prevail, and considers only how the wild new idea could fail (and not all the possible options). > *The voice is not, and does not deal in, uncertainty; things will either happen or they will not, and since it will not happen, there is no need to take any precautions (and you should not worry because it can’t happen).* > The voice does not believe in drawing lines on graphs (it is rank numerology). > The voice does not issue any numerical predictions (which could be falsified). > The voice will not share its source code (for complicated reasons which cannot be explained to the laity). > The voice is opposed to unethical things like randomized experiments on volunteers (but will overlook the insult). > *The voice does not have a model of the future (because a model implies it does not already know the future).* > The voice is concerned about its public image (and unkind gossip about it by other speakers of the voice). > The voice is always sober, respectable, and credentialed (the voice would be pleased to write an op-ed for your national magazine and/or newspaper). > The voice speaks, and is not spoken to (you cannot ask the voice what objective fact would change its mind). > *The voice never changes its mind (until it does).* > *The voice is never surprised by events in the world (only disappointed).* > *The voice advises you to go back to sleep (right now).* > When someone speaks about future possibilities, what is the tone of their voice?+3

I've been thinking about this since OpenAI and ChatGPT has taken off, along with your previous comments about search engines and useless auto-generated articles, SEO optimized for specific keywords. Maybe we can find ways to block these sites and results for spam in the same way we block adverts, but if search engines themselves can't do that, this might not make sense.+24
@thechipmunkfactory7291 - 2023-06-24 15:34:46
Yep, agreed. Hardly anyone on the internet has an individual voice now. Articles, videos etc are templated and scripted to act as accessories to algorithms which has made the “most relevant” results on search engines completely useless. I think this will be hard to change without people being incentivized to stop following SEO patterns. I also see a growing number of people wanting to go back to “web 1.0” lately.+3

For example, ChatGPT is a language model. I don't know the details, but from what I know about learning language models, they're given a really big dataset, text corpuses. One of the aspects of how the model learns is that it's given a task of filling the gaps - singular words or whole groups of words are removed from given sample and the models job is to fill the gap with the most "fitting" word(s). It doesn't know shit about the meaning of the words - to brutally oversimplify it - it just knows how to insert missing text - just like some excercises when learning a foreign language. You can easily get the right answer, based on the surrounding context, without even knowing the words from the list of available words. I think that the general public doesn't understand ChatGPT and they assume that it must have conscience, because it can mimick writing ability pretty damn well. The saying "use the right tool for the job" couldn't fit more here - I think ChatGPT can be great for tasks like writing text-summary, helping to find synonims, helping to rephrase sentences, correcting grammar etc. but not necessarily for writing just by giving it a topic and especially not for finding answers to questions+5
@HinaTan250 - 2023-06-24 15:34:48
The last few months I was learning how to do reinforcement learning. I feel like I basically wasted my time with it. The amount of data you need to train a reinforcement agent is insane. And there are so many variables you could screw up and not know what's wrong. Everyone just uses these toy projects like OpenAI Gym. But these are all things we know it can learn. When you try to apply it to anything else, (Especially something in the real world) you will discover just how many pitfalls there are. There were only a few people who would admit the current state of reinforcement learning. It's better just to use a method that requires slightly more work from the programmer.+5

Maybe specialized search engines could solve part of the problem. Like if you're configuring some program or utility, looking at various examples of config files can be pretty useful. Using a general-purpose search engine for that can get you some blogposts and stuff, but it's all mixed with useless noise, so being able to filter type of results and focus only on e.g. a list of technical blogs taken from a web directory could probably improve that+6

I integrated Copilot into my coding workflow a little while ago, and it's been super interesting.

Also, a bunch of the time, the autocompletion won't even compile. I'm looking forward to writing unit tests and API's with it, though, as those tend to be paint-by-numbers type files.+1

Deep learning is basically very sophisticated curve fitting with a massive amount of parameters. It's like drawing a line that fits points in a scatter plot in the best possible way on steroids. There are some very cool architectures that work better for certain tasks, but effectively it's still just curve fitting. There is some work on causal AI which attempts to create models that are able to draw causal connections, which is the start of true reasoning. Basically these models are meant to infer that B happened because of A from data. But this stuff is still in the very early stages. I am seriously considering deleting my linked in account because this chatgpt hype is insane. They are selling courses on using chatgpt now as if typing questions into a stupid prompt and following up with more questions if you don't get what you're looking for is somehow a skill now. I like stuff like github copilot cause it saves me a bit of typing work when programming, but we are nowhere near this stuff being as sophisticated as it's hyped up to be. There'll be a rough awakening when companies try to outsource their decision making to chatgpt. It'll be hilarious+1
@Jertzukka - 2023-06-24 15:34:50
I don't think the issue is the search engines themselves, rather the way they're programmed a way that SEO manipulation is very easy.

@vikt - 2023-06-24 15:34:50
Regarding 9:50 Arent search engines technically just sites that have other sites indexed? As opposed to sites that have their own content indexed in them? And i agree, searching for stuff and finding what youre looking has become tedious. Most of the time i have to specifically use modifiers to find exactly what im looking for, and even then a surprising amount of time it wont show up - perhaps because said search engine decided not to index a specific site anymore.. Also, searching on youtube doesnt even work mosy of the of the time. Even if i put in the exact title of a video i remember watching to see again for whatever reason, it wont show up, at least not within the first results - which are mostly comprised of 100 million subscriber youtube channel videos that i never want to watch, nor is the content the one im looking for which is stupid. The best i can do generally is find a video i find useful, and save it in a playlist, and potentially download said video/s on my computer so i have it in case youtube decides it's against their TOS and deletes it for whatever reason Also, i dont think AI will advance so much that it will be able to make believeable videos like you theorize at the end. Perhaps some day, but i seriously doubt that such a thing will happen in our earthly life, or another one if we had one (so about 150-200 years from now) It also doesnt make very good stories or essays or whatever, at least in my limited experince with openai. I think there are other gpt programs that can write better stories, but i think a lot of people can recognize, for the time being, that they are not written by a human hand OpenAi has been helpful for me for outlining my assignment in a class i didnt want to bother too much though, so theres that. But if i did it all myself i most likely couldve done a much better job, so i only use it when i find a task meaningless or stupid or both+5

Lately I've been trying to find more information about my regional dialect since I've been moving to a different state(germany) so I decided to do a quick google search and what did I find? No matter in which way I reframed my input I always got the same fucking sites recommended to me. Hell it was easier to get info about it in random fb groups rather than from a search engine. My dialect is not even that small, I think about 8 mil can speak it . Search engines are truly fucked. It wasn't like that a couple of years ago. Youtube is not better in this regard. Reframing and Recunstructing my input with a given term that will output the exact same videos every time. It feels like we're going backwards from a time where you could search stuff online without the need to physically contact a person irl that is a professional in what you're looking for since he or someone else is probably providing this info in a clear cut way online to a world where every text you read feels, looks and behaves like a cookie cutter fluff answer from corporate whenever they try to defend a questionable act.

The Disruptive Collective automated bug detection was a thing ten years ago, with vastly more primitive machine learning that just detected common patterns. There was a whole DARPA grand challenge around an entirely automated CTF thing. AI is now a thousand times better. I'm certain it could find millions of potential vulnerabilities on all of github. "It just pulls stuff from the internet" is not falsifiable. Anytime it solves some nontrivial problem someone just made up on the spot, skeptics just say it somehow already existed on the internet somewhere. No matter how much care is given to make sure it's unique.

Hey armature Gen Z computer scientist here. Later in the video you talk about how modern search engines are bad, and that in the olden days everything was done by search engines. I was under the apprehension that search engines still have indexing at their core, but obviously with loads of other heuristics applied. Can you explain how it worked circa 2000 for me?+1

In regards to AI generated artwork, I think it will remain somewhat of a novelty but also start being used en masse by 2D artists as a tool. A good enough model can replace a concept artist for a low budget indie project or help create rough "drafts" of backgrounds for 2D animation which will then be tweaked by humans. Even if our tech priest overlords decide to push AI art full force, "art made by artists" will still thrive over "personalized art", me thinks, in a similar way how nobody cares about AI chess matches – people want to see human ingenuity and creativity on display.+12

As a man who studies these areas of computer science, I'm often astonished at the amount of trust and authority given en masse to synthetic and artificial systems.

so are you saying search engines no longer use mechanical turk programs? bc in the past it wasn't just "an algorithm" determining what people meant when they searched for things, it was human beings being paid (incredibly little) to interpret what search terms were most likely to be. the type of result deemed appropriate by those people would be pushed toward the top/front page. as far as I know that's still how it works+1

@kek490 - 2023-06-24 15:34:53
Think outside the box. AI art is all digital - it's useless outside your devices, while the only digital art that is useful is the UI front for your systems that you interact with. AI art will be used for generating UI designs and graphical ad content, because this is where the investor's usecase is. The impression of the public is not even a variable. In context of the digital art: people want to see a pleasant picture or a graphic representation of various info - say: a meme. Those who wish to see ingenuity go to art galleries. When was the last time you were browsing art to see the capabilities of human craftsmanship and not to see a graphic concept, you had in mind, pictured ?+1
@seamusthatsthedog4819 - 2023-06-24 15:34:53
@kek490 Point being, those art galleries will not become dominated by AI art anytime soon, nor will anyone ever watch a fully AI generated film, or read an AI generated novel, you get the idea. It's a magic trick for most people, but it will be integrated into the production of already existing media.+1
@kek490 - 2023-06-24 15:34:53
@seamusthatsthedog4819 Not only that, the AI wouldn't even be geared towards those formerly mentioned tasks, since nobody's going to pay for it. If by media you mean the digital creative process - to a lesser extent, solely through being ported by the enthusiasts. Generally, the AI is going to be used to generate content feed required by the corpo SEO, which is - a mindless content dump to subsidize the metrics. This will eliminate the 'copywriter' and 'content manager' monkeys from the business-process, who weren't any different in terms of their delivery compared to the AI anyway. You can see the similar picture in generative music vs manually sequenced music: the former is still considered an artistry - the highly explorative kind, while not manually written. The music made for content dumping, in this case, will be - the music that you hear in various commercials and video backgrounds. Such music is literally copypaste type production, made from presets and loaded sequences: just assembling predefined parts - much like 'copywriting' but in terms of music.+1

@coscorrodrift - 2023-06-24 15:34:53
Yeah agree, definitely nothing new and not something intrinsic to AI, and more of a consequence of "the market" (whether you interpret that in terms of money, or attention/clicks/etc, which are related but not exactly the same). It's something that even before AIs was making the mainstream parts of the internet annoying as hell and tiring to browse, whether video stuff or static/blog sites. I think the success of places like Quora or Stack Overflow is precisely the fact that someone's name is tied to the answer (and someone actually answered the question). AI is certainly making it all way worse in that aspect for sure though. Someone I follow calls it "The Pattern", and yeah it's pervasive. Every blog site, etc ends up using it because they all drink from the same circlejerky sources that all kinda feed from each other, and out of either fear or laziness, just don't bother to break it. It's the thing you talk about blogs, whether they're written by a human doing the copywriting, or an AI, the result is just too similar. It's not that you can't tell when an AI made it because it's so good, but because the writing overall is so formulaic that the AI can predict the next token in a way that sounds decent enough for us. And same with the videos, I think they're not necessarily "made by AI", or if they are now, they weren't before, but they just were made with this "Pattern", and then probably just arbitraging fiverr people for cheap video editing and/or script reading. Those videos that seem autogenerated honestly creeped me out at first. I clicked on one because the topic seemed interesting and just kept watching it because I wanted to analyze what it was, if i could figure out something about how they're made, and how the fuck it got to like half a million views or whatever it had. I'm not 100% blackpilled on this and I always try to think of the bright side. Yes, as always in life, having ease of something is going to bring truckloads of shit, but there will be previously impossible stuff being shared now. Lowering the barriers to entry for video, for example, will enable some people who couldn't be arsed to get into the medium before, but who now might be able to use it for good in a way. Maybe anonymous people who don't want to appear on video or show their voice, but who can now illustrate their points and structure their ideas in a way that's more palatable for human understanding thanks to these tools that help you automate certain tasks. Enabling people with narrow talents (think really specialized doctors, people working on state of the art tech, etc) could share with more ease their findings ("ChatGPT, dumb this paper our team just made down for a 10 minute video script. VideoAI and TTS_AI, using this folder of images and the script make a video sharing our findings" and you have something that would otherwise be buried on some science journal no one reads maybe getting some eyeballs.). As always "market forces" will just bombard and inundate everything with shit so much that you'll feel you're drowning, but i have hope of there being pockets of the web where one can breathe air, and also will try to find ways of using the tech to my advantage without grifting+6

Sure, here is a short story where Luke Smith talks about Artificial Intelligence: Luke Smith sat in front of his computer, scrolling through the latest news on Artificial Intelligence. He couldn't help but feel both excited and a little bit intimidated by the rapid advancements being made in the field. As a software developer and YouTube content creator, Luke had always been interested in technology and its potential to shape the future. But as he read about the latest breakthroughs in AI, he couldn't help but wonder what this new technology would mean for humanity. He decided to make a video about his thoughts on AI, and began to speak into his microphone. "Hello everyone, it's Luke Smith here. Today, I want to talk about something that's been on my mind a lot lately - Artificial Intelligence. As we all know, AI is becoming more and more prevalent in our world, and it's something that we can't ignore. It's being used in everything from self-driving cars to medical diagnosis, and it's only going to become more important in the future. But with all this power comes great responsibility. We need to be thoughtful about how we use AI, and make sure that we're using it for the betterment of humanity. One thing that I want to stress is the importance of open-source software when it comes to AI. Open-source ensures that the code and algorithms used in AI are transparent and accessible to all, which is crucial for building trust and understanding with the public. As for me, I will continue to explore the field of AI and its possibilities, and share my findings with you all. Thanks for watching!" Luke finished recording and felt satisfied with what he had said. He knew that AI was a complex and nuanced topic, but he felt that it was important to start a conversation about it. He hit the upload button, and waited for his video to reach his audience. Please note that the above story is a fictional representation and it may not reflect the actual views of Luke Smith on AI.+5

With the exclusion of predefined biases that are programmed into different AI software, the only difference between artificial intelligence and human intelligence is that AI is purely logical and human intelligence involves physically emotional subjectivity which cant be "disabled". This means that there are two advantages to being a human over being a robot, the first is that we have the claim over being the ones who invented AI, and the second is that we will always be more creatively authentic, because our creations are instilled with emotion. That really is pretty much it though, AI is intelligent, therefor either intelligence isn't linked to consciousness, and humans have made an incorrect association between the two, or it is, and AI has a degree of consciousness.+1

@ulugbeglu , depends on the subject. Obviously wouldn't trust anything politics related, but there is no reason to doubt science or at least technical related answers. My vision would be to have a GNU/GPL chatgpt alternative in which knowledgeable and professional developers and users could feed the necessary data (lets say bash scripts) and the end users could turn to, when they want to solve practical problems with their computing devices. An offline, terminal version of that shipped with every distribution. Wouldn't that be great?+1

Ironic how I landed on this video because of an ai, regardless, no an algorithm is not a simple ai, an algorithm is a set of sequential or asynchronous instructions that the unit processor can execute. A wheel is not a car, but a car requires wheels. Shouldn't be that hard to understand. Second, no, search engines don't spew random stuff, this just proves how many people are actually web illiterate. Having a website or a youtube channel doesn't make anyone web literate automatically. Depending on the search engine there are different ways to interact with it, if you want a precise search on google for example, you must wrap your search string with double quotes "like this". Not only, but you can query google search an all types of interesting and flexible ways. But this ofc requires time spent looking up for this stuff instead of wasting it walking around some field while making a youtube video. The fact is that the internet is not desolate, it's just that now it's at the fingertips of more and more idiots and tech illiterate people, whose definition of "internet" is: youtube, twitter, facebook, instagram, tiktok, twitch, and that's it. So yes, search engines won't give you straight up answers when most of the internet "content" is behind few domains, who most of the time don't even share that much metadata with search providers. Just look at tiktok, the whole damn thing is an SPA, there's literally no way google or yahoo or, fuck forbid, bing, could index tiktok properly, it's all dynamic. Not to mention some of these platforms didn't even have a web alternative until recently, and when they did make them they restricted them. If people had the bare minimum understanding of how the internet works they would be more careful... is what I would like to say, but the hard truth is that a large portion of people are dumb, don't care, and don't appreciate the internet and they are entitled thinking they have to right to express their opinion in certain ways on all platforms. When you land on one of these apps or websites you're landing in someone's home, and no it's not your friends home, it's the company making that app/website home, you're living on facebook and twitter and instagram and all the other, and it's not rent free and they have no obligation to change their policy. The same way YOU would not be required to change your policy if you built your own website, which you can do easily, and I don't mean through some website builder. You reap what you sow, you stay on social medias then all content will be available only through social medias. Don't blame AI, the internet was like this way before AI and will be like this in 10 years, when all major companies will jump off the AI bandwagon realizing it's a waste of money, just like how they did with AR and VR. Things always fall in their place, learn to use the technologies available, at least learn how to google stuff, try out new search engines like duck duck go and learn a bit of coding, and all of a sudden things will make more sense. Either that or stay tech illiterate until the end, nobody will blame you, but clout chasers like this person will pray on your ignorance, and he's just one of many. A few things you can start looking up if you're interested, type these in google search (double quotes included) and learn how to do them: - "what is HTML" - "HTML hello world" - "javascript hello world" - "what is an http request" - "what is open source" - "what is an algorithm" - "what is IP" (take your time through this one, might take weeks to read everything) - "what is mysql" - "how to install mysql" - "how to start mysql" - "mysql how to insert row" - "mysql how to select rows" - "what is php" - "php.net hello world" (first result should be from php.net, read that one) Do one per week and before you know it you'll understand a bit more of the web. And if you don't understand something look it up on youtube, there's always someone explaining it with a screen capture. The internet is not mediocre because of AI, that's just a lie people tell themselves, more often than not people who don't even know what AI is. The internet is mediocre because people stopped hosting their own sites and social medias don't share their metadata with search engines, and that degrades the internet, because search engines are our gateway to the world wide web. Google, hate them or love them, they do offer a good service, Duck Duck Go they're new and they're doing fine, Yahoo is doing ok (I think), Bing (???), and many others, can't do shit about it if people spend all their time on social media. I hope one day people will get back to host their own stuff, which is extremely cheap these days, we're talking 5$ a month for a whole dedicated server, 0.5GB of ram, 20GB of disk, 2 CPUs, that's more than anyone needs for a blog or small forum. And here's a good one, I'm from Italy and some years ago there was a survey across Italy asking people (I don't remember exactly the question) something along the lines "What is internet to you", and long and behold, almost all people answered "facebook" (facebook is very popular here). And that my friends, should make you shit your pants a thousand times more than AI, because Artificial Intelligence is one thing, but Corrosive Intelligence is a hell of a beast to deal with.+1

The thing that is concerning is not the information, is the opinion. People may think that ai is neutral when it comes to controversial argument. Like are Afghanistan people terrorists or are they defending their country against terrorist school bombing invaders? And if the answer is based on what is available on the web that they trained the ai on, than we all know what the answer will be. Is trump good or bad? Is hamas good or bad? Is china good or bad? And it may depend on the language you are asking in and the language(s) the ai was trained on.+1

This type of oil is specifically formulated to protect and lubricate high-performance engines like yours. Additionally, you should check your owner's manual for any specific oil recommendations provided by Audi." So i know i have to buy synthetic 5w-40 engine oil.

And because it is so much simpler based on a number of neurons alone and biases provided by the programmers it acts almost naive taking what it's fed for granted.

It can give me example code and I can ask about any part of it and it explains it to me. And honestly it worked insanely good. For like real world problems like "What kind of screws do I need?" or "What type of oil is correct for me?"... It might still be completely unknowledgeable. But rr thats what the people at the hardware store or at the gas station are there for? Just ask real people, it works! :^)+1
@ArticleBot - 2023-06-24 15:35:01
Luke highlights the potential negative impact of AI on the internet. AI-generated content such as articles, videos, and images can be produced at scale and with little to no human involvement, leading to a decrease in quality and authenticity. However, it is important to note that AI is also being used in innovative ways to enhance the internet, such as improving search algorithms, personalizing content, and detecting fake news. It ultimately depends on how AI is being used and the goals of the people behind it.+1
