Google CEO tries to tell University students to love AI.

[farah@beige.party]

@nixCraft I love that they scream no when he’s saying “let me give you a piece of advice”. Get the fuck outta here, man!

[apostateenglishman@mastodon.world]

@nixCraft We are all Luddites now.

[bedifferent@mastodon.social]

@nixCraft Boooooooo. Not everyone is fooled by alpha and how invasive it is. I loathed it from the moment it hit the internet. I remember where I was standing and who told me. I was aghast and it continues to this day.

[greenwhale@dice.camp]

@nixCraft fascist scum gets booed.

[nixcraft@mastodon.social]

AI leaders like him and their AI companies are highly speculative and profit from that speculation in billions each yeer, while ordinary people like us and the kids in this video who boo and make similar speculations are called alarmists or Luddites.

@nixCraft Next time around, EGG HIM !!

[alexadeswift@lgbtqia.space]

@nixCraft

Talk about a complete innability to read the room!

[fionasboots@tech.lgbt]

@nixCraft
Millionaire CEOs should just fuck off as a general rule. We really need to eliminate the issue of vast amounts of wealth accumulating in a few individuals

[anhedonichedonist@mastodon.social]

@nixCraft Yes, we do know what the 'contours of that transiition' will look like-

*Gestures wildly about*

[lemgandi@mastodon.social]

@nixCraft

When the crash comes they'll still be billionaires. The rest of us, well . . .

[anhedonichedonist@mastodon.social]

@alexadeswift @nixCraft

-Not 'inability to read the room'

Too full of hubris to care..

[apostateenglishman@mastodon.world]

@nixCraft Sadly I saved the vid without bookmarking the post (doh!) so can't give any detail about when or where this was filmed, or who the speaker is, but this one is also good.

The look of total surprise from someone entirely out-of-touch with the views of those outside her tech bubble, is satisfying.

[oatrapado@mastodon.social]

@nixCraft we have to terminate rich before they terminate us.

[nicelymanifest@mastodon.social]

@nixCraft They have been bombarded with such make divisive stuff that they have mostly wised up. Many abandon 'social media' because it no social media but commandeered to serve the likes of Google.

Big business is psychopathic in nature. Never forget that - not least that it is in the constitution of Corporations that they must NOT care about the environment. Just grow and increase profit and shareholder dividends.

EVIL constitution.

[taxet@mementomori.social]

@nixCraft this brings me so much joy to see the new generation of people stuffing it to the fuckers trying to kill us all.

[maxotaf@mastodon.gamedev.place]

@hannorein CEOs with that sociopathic mindset where they can't comprehend the world telling them no

[wannabemystiker@expressional.social]

@nixCraft

Yeah, I'll find a way (actually, numerous ways) to say "fuck off!"

[unlofl@mstdn.social]

@nixCraft And also, ethical and moral issues aside, AI sucks for academic purposes.

It doesn't understand, it can't come up with novel ideas, and its always just guessing. Even if its useful for categorizing/screening stuff, real science requires a bunch of extra work to justify your methodology. Every study using AI has to assess the accuracy of the AI for that purpose, and if the AI turns out to have a weird blind spot you missed it invalidates your research.

@nixCraft "We will bury you." Google CEO

[omegapolice@hachyderm.io]

@nixCraft The kids are alright.

"If you don't care about science, that's okay", he says, on _that_ stage. Phaw.
