Nobody's going to scale back AI. We need to be working hard to expand every available clean energy source possible. Wind, solar, geothermal, fission, and of course fusion.
There is no avoiding it, unfortunately. Anybody who doesn't learn it and use it will be left behind. They'll no longer be competitive. Even if a country outlaws it, other countries will pass them by. There is no putting that cat back in the bag.
This would be true if using AI made anything better than just paying someone to do it. But AI is a net negative on efficiency and cost effectiveness in businesses. So no. No it is not inevitable; you just want AI to happen.
I don't have any preference on AI, unless it makes things better. But, it will absolutely make things better if it keeps improving the way it has been. It is going to do things that the vast majority of people can't or don't want to do. And it will do them better than most people can do. As such, AI could eliminate scarcity. The question is if we will make sure everyone can benefit from those immense gains. I am certain that the wealthy will not want that. They will want to consolidate the benefit amongst themselves. Should we allow AI? How much are we going to charge for AI? Could we even stop it if we wanted to? These aren't the questions we should be asking, IMO. The question we should be asking is: Are we going to allow the wealthy to continue holding us down?
Apple Intelligence became an unnecesary annoyance for me on both my iPhone and Macbook. I tried it out for a while but quickly became a pain in the ass for me and my uses, so I disabled it on both devices. As far as "Artificial Intelligence" in general, I much more prefer the real thing. And usually when I see the term "next generation" anything, it typically means that we're a "generation" away from getting the bugs out of it.
Agreed. I think Apple quietly stopped doing any actual generative AI rollout once they realized the hit to miss ratio on answers from an LLM would never be high enough for grown adults with expectations.
For me, Apple has lost it's common sense approach ever since Tim Cook took over for Steve Jobs...don't get me wrong, I'll never go back to using a Windows based system, but again, Apple has lost a step.
