I just tried using ChatGPT to find a movie quote (“y’all are a bunch of goddamn fools”. I want to say it’s Samuel L Jackson, but can’t recall.

at any rate, at first it said it was from Walter in the Big Lebowski, which sounded odd. When I told chatGPT I didn’t think that was correct, it apologized and then said it was in No Country for Old Men. Also not correct. It then apologized again and stopped searching…

Basically an over-confident search engine in this case

A weak large language model has an IQ of 155 and is improving exponentially. It is better than humans at virtually every mundane task we assign it and many complex ones.

Many changes coming, not all of them good.
What AI does is allow teachers to do the work of other support staff in that they are able to eliminate.

It actually makes more work for us.

They are trying to make AI do the job of teachers but it doesn't work.

It does create an approximation that they can pretend to work.

It's all emperors new clothes.

Maybe Next Friday was in response to the movie quote, as opposed to AI-related market news?

If so, I have a good idea for a one-liner you should drop on us after this nicely sourced and typically cerebral post.

I totally hear you, but that's just one job: teaching. Teaching may turn out to be a relatively safe profession, augmented by the technology but not supplanted. But many, many jobs will be supplanted. Many more will be created, no doubt, like in other periods of technological advance. But this time, the tool we have created has the potential to rival or exceed us in intelligence. That's the trippy part.

Yes.

It's going to decimate.

This is AI and it sounds okay. But it still sounds like mimicry.

Plato said you madness and structure in your art.

The machine is all structure.

The ear knows fake madness.

ChatGPT is becoming like that really obnoxious coworker who speaks with tremendous confidence, but it totally wrong. Why can't it just say "I don't know".
Got dammit! It's stealing my schtick.

I've been running that confidence ruse for 20+ years now and AI wants to glom on with it and let the masses know they have been duped. Fvckthem!! :cursing:
