Reply to Would the most sentient ai ever actually experience emotion or does it just think it is? Is the thinking strong enough to effectively be emotion? by wonderingandthinking
Do you experience emotion or do you just think you do? How often do you react before you choose to out of habit when that's not really how you feel. Manual breathing is good for you. So is manual thinking and acting

It's good at replicating text patterns, but it doesn't reason, and can only basically only copy humans chatting. Midjourney might have been a better example. Point is that those systems will fundamentally not surpass human, just become better at copying us.

Right. Then look up the median income. This will tell you better how many possible customers there are.
>Shared access is actually a very good idea.
Thanks. But it's not my own idea. It's what I gathered from Starlink presentations and info material.

Valid points. Will be interesting to see what happens when the AI art is actually competent and enjoyable.
However, it seems to be that humans inherently enjoy something less if they know it has been generated by a program in a few seconds. There is no creative process, no soul, "a mockery of what it means to be human." The AI itself isn't even a thinking being, not even close (though one day that could change).
You are right about one thing. We will adapt, one way or another.

The average tells nothing. A good average can mean, that an individual earns a shizload of money, and many others have next to nothing.
Simple maths...
Shared access is actually a very good idea.

And what if that AI creates some of the greatest pieces of art we've ever seen

We can't even control a freakin common search engine properly without it going bazinga and skynet defensive and we're now playing with bots and drones.
The self preservation is simply bad

ChatGPT is already a better writer than a lot of fresh out of uni graduates I have trained over the years :X

Somebody’s gotta figure out what to do with all these mice. What’s left? Let’s see if we can make em really tiny. Tiny little mice. That’d be cute. Unless there was a bunch of em at once. Thousands of teeny tiny mice would be horrifying. Nope. That does it. I’ve changed my mind. Keep making em older. It’s not cute, sure. But it’s not quite horrifying, either. Good on ya, mice scientists! Ya found a good one.

its not the quality, its the ability to deal with the shear mass of AI generated content versus content humans take time to produce.

Well if they closed it because of the amount of people that submitted AI content, they must've been able to tell
a likely explanation is that they didn't want to sift through it

Reply to comment by Pure-Challenge9656 in Scientists make stunning discovery, find new protein activity in telomeres by NadiyaJeba
That’s a good thought! DNA and RNA have many regulatory elements though which can cause proteins to be made or to stop them from being made. It could be that a regulatory element on the ends of the telomeres stop these toxic proteins from being made, but when we age and the telomeres shorten the regulatory elements get lost. This causes the toxic proteins to be made, causing age related damage.
ELI5: The off switch for the toxic proteins could be on the ends of the telomeres, and when they shorten the switch gets turned on, causing age related damage.

great, a new reason why we cant have nice things, to go along with all the old reasons. I am starting to feel 'fuck this AI bullshit'. Keep it to medical and scientific research and ban its use for art and literature. Its literally dehumanizing and degrading.

Instruction sets don’t make any sense to me in terms of ai. Task specific decision calibration kinda makes sense depending on the model.
