>It's not impossible for it to change for the better.

In fact, it has been happening for centuries.

Insults aside, I didn't say otherwise. I said there wasn't a shortage of ditch diggers.

Right. So the answer is “No, I don’t have any proof.” Thank you.

NPCs? What the hell?

>Right now there's a shortage of manual labor.

Skilled labor, not manual. There's not a huge need for ditch diggers. There's a huge need for plumbers.

Correct. But in this case the burden of proof is obviously on you since you're making the assertion.

🙄 That's not how evidence works. You can't prove a negative.

Thanks for providing a link. I'm not sure how much I trust a "resumebuilder.com" survey but there it is. I guess we'll have to see if there is an increase in unemployment in the short-term.

Do you have evidence that the tech layoffs are related to any kind of AI?

Yeah, I can see that happening.

>Already has been happening, you are expecting a flip of the switch and a massive cut off but thats not how life works typically.

Evidence?

>What do you think is behind the massive tech layoffs that have been going on for over a year, now, and are only picking up pace?

Not GPT. The boom/bust cycle of tech firms is like clockwork at this point.

>My work basically fired 90% of the marketing team.

The marketing team is often the first to be laid off in turbulent times. Is your work actually using GPT to replace them?

>All of your hard work in life was for nothing. Accept it.

This is a strange opinion. Cars and all kinds of animals can move faster than any human being. Does that mean the hard work athletes put in to be the best version of themselves is for nothing?

History has shown us that when new technology emerges, activities and skills we previously used for survival often shift into different areas. With the advent of AGI, maybe many tasks and jobs could become automated, but this doesn't invalidate the hard work and achievements of individuals up to this point.

Instead, it should serve as an opportunity for us to adapt and evolve, focusing on the aspects of our lives that cannot be easily replicated by artificial intelligence – creativity, empathy, and personal growth. I believe we should embrace change and use it as a catalyst for further development, rather than seeing it as a reason to dismiss the value of our past efforts.

>Half the decisions made at large organizations are wrong. There’s plenty of literature on c-suite decision-failures. This means there is room for improvement

GPT-4 would be very prone to hallucinate "wrong" answers as well.

Stockholders want somebody to be able to fire.

We’re talking about two different things. AGI is not machine learning.

Eventually? Perhaps. But at that point, do you think they AI will even care about making creative content for humans?

It’d be like Scorsese deciding to make a movie exclusively for dogs. Why would he?

Oh! And an anti-vaxxer, too. How charming.

>He's killed 5.5 billion people and counting, most of them just haven't started dying just yet.

Nevermind. I see from this comment...

>AGI has existed for several years now, and has reached ASI, I'm confused why people think they'd be told about it.

...that you're delusional.

>AI is already creating more art and intelligently written articles than I or most other people can.

AI is not creating art. People are using machine learning algorithms to create art. There's a huge difference.

When there is an actual and true Artificial Intelligence which is creating art (which requires thought and intent) it will be a very different world indeed.

But that would be an AGI -- and I doubt an AGI would even understand the purpose for something as superfluous and silly as art.

>By the time people have made the shift, AI will take that over as well.

This is silly. ML is not creative or intelligent. It still needs human direction. What we'll end up seeing is entirely new creative works made by humans with ML software.

>The AI revolution will change human powered thinking to mechanical, but of course just like a motor is stronger than a human, can run 24/7, can be made bigger, etc, the same is true for AI

I agree with this, but the person I responded to said "right now."

It's the right now part that I'm taking issue with.

Am I supposed to know what that means?

Yes. That's a major achievement in medicine.

That does not in any way, shape, or form "completely change humanity."

Chump.

>What we have right now is already enough to completely change humanity.

That's ludicrous. Completely change humanity.

How?
