Business insider and Forbes have always been uninformed tabloids

New reddit is basically unusable

Nah fuck AI

It's how copyright is defined

We should bring back cruel and unusual punishment for people who hack shit like hospitals or student health records. The scum of the earth.

They fired them the day after lol

It's illegal in the United States to fire someone for union organizing. It's called retaliation and it's a serious violation of labor laws.

RemindMe! one year

Has the machine consciousness supplanted the fleshy meat bags in the legal industry.

This is the second time a redditor has accused me of not understanding technology when I disagree with them about a point regarding AI in a day. I love seeing people condescend to me about technology that I have years of experience working with in academic and professional settings.

"The data says black people commit more crime" is still not a reason to build automated systems that treat them differently. Biased models are not a good reason to abandon the constitutional and civic principles this country was founded on.

It makes the internet shittier

Artists can also respond much more accurately to feedback

It's just giving you a plausible and probabilistically likely answer. It has absolutely no model of what is and isn't true.

Having actually worked in legal technology, I'm honestly not sure what this does for existing lawyers. As I said before, legal documents require extremely specific and precise language. Lawyers are likely to have templates for common documents their firms create, and anything beyond that requires actually knowing about law, which LLMs like ChatGPT are not capable of. The actual money to be made in legal technology is not in generative AI, but in document processing and search. Lawyers are increasingly having to deal with hundreds of gigabytes or even terabytes of documents in a given case. Ocr, which is also AI and is seeing in use in the industry, makes handwriting searchable. Advanced search techniques make legal review, the real driver of cost in the legal industry, faster and cheaper. Making legal arguments in court is not the reason why interaction with the legal system can be so expensive.

This attitude that tech bros have about disrupting industries they don't actually understand or know anything about is pretty funny sometimes.

I have no idea what point you are trying to make here. If an AI adopts the bias of its training data then it's biased lol.

The difference being that self driving cars work pretty well and are already being offered to the public.

Au contraire, there's already ai being used in the criminal justice system, and it's incredibly biased.

I'm not convinced that this technology, in it's current form, will replace lawyers. It lacks the precision required by legal reasoning and still gets shit wrong all the time. Furthermore, as a software engineer, I have doubts on whether this tech is capable of solving these problems without radical new ideas. I foresee a lot of people giving themselves a lot of headaches by thinking they can rely on this technology, but not much more than that.

> it’s just Google search on steroids

This is incredibly ignorant lol

I don't think it's made very much of anything obsolete. It's still pretty shit. If anything, it's degrading the quality of content on the internet and making it less useful.

Case in point, ratio.

This is pure conspiracy theory bullshit. Yes, the fed's mandate is to control inflation. They do that by raising rates. Rates were probably unhealthily low if anything. That might cause a recession, but that's not the goal.

Layoffs are happening because dumb fucks on wall street and the VCs in the valley are predicting a recession that may or may not actually happen. They therefore want to see blood in the water to know these companies are serious about treating their feelings seriously, despite companies like Google being ridiculously profitable. These companies should just start paying dividends and put an end to this infinite growth, short term quarterly thinking bullshit that has them laying off thousands of workers despite historically good numbers.

A free service trained on millions of lines of text OpenAI didn't create. Entitlement indeed.

Sell shovels not gold

This won't happen because republicans have absolutely zero interest in legislation that would actually help their constituents, only in stoking bullshit outrage that keeps their base mad.
