Lol. Rofl, even.

@q I have no idea. I work in this field, and I have no idea.

@sophieschmieg @q same

@q
And how exactly does one "use" quantum computing
@sophieschmieg

[darkling@mstdn.social]

@q @sophieschmieg It's like AI, but with added QUANTUMS! That'll make it EVEN BETTER! The investors will LOVE IT!

I believe this encompasses the sum total of thought on the subject.

[slothrop@chaos.social]

@sophieschmieg @q Implementing a full quantum AI stack without a blockchain feels like a missed opportunity tbh

[darkasvim@fosstodon.org]

@sophieschmieg But..but...industry buzzwords!!!

[elight@tenforward.social]

@sophieschmieg @danlyke Me after reading that quotation a couple of times.

[paradegrotesque@mastodon.sdf.org]

@slothrop

Stop giving them ideas, please.

Just... Stop.
@sophieschmieg @q

[danlyke@researchbuzz.masto.host]

@elight somehow we, as a society, have decided that these chucklefucks should be in charge of the allocation of capital.

[elight@tenforward.social]

@q @sophieschmieg Well, you know, there's stochastic and then there's JFC STOCHASTIC. That one goes to eleven.

[stephanie@thetransagenda.gay]

@q@glauca.space @sophieschmieg@infosec.exchange "Quantum AI" is a term that means "hey, look, we have both buzzwords! Give us more money!"

[elight@tenforward.social]

@danlyke It is awfully ironic that you should use this word. I found myself nearly perseverating on it yesterday. Somehow, for a few minutes, it became the most fascinating word in the English language.

I think Vonnegut would mark this one up as you and I are in the same karass. And then he'd call us idiots for buying into his bullshit.

[jawnsy@mastodon.social]

@sophieschmieg That's why there's Quantum NVLink

[eldersea@expressional.social]

@tess RETVRN TO QVANTVM!

[eldersea@expressional.social]

@slothrop @sophieschmieg @q You can tell it's good because it's already blockchAIn! It says so! Right there^^^!

[catsalad@infosec.exchange]

@sophieschmieg Perfect for the $1 trillion market value the Metaverse will bring in by then!

Oh wait...

[danlyke@researchbuzz.masto.host]

@elight I have been trying to find words that express my disdain for the level of "thinking" that's going into the embrace of AI.

I have been taken to task for suggesting that grown-ass adults stuck in Piaget's Animism stage might have developmental disabilities, but I don't know how else to view this level of delusion.

@sophieschmieg

Hopefully GenAI replaces 59% of executives by 2030. It's maybe the one job the robots could do better.

[krnlg@mastodon.social]

@sophieschmieg "Thought Leadership" indeed.

[danlyke@researchbuzz.masto.host]

@elight also, it's making me realize just how disconnected the ability to play the social game is from the ability to actually build shit.

And I'm stuck building shit. Or, more to the point, fixing shit that wasn't built well in the first place.
