UK/US. Following the development of all things AI. If you're sure AGI will be wonderful or awful... you're wrong. It's going to be both. It might be both to the extreme - either way, it's coming and it's already changing the world
Has anyone tried #Google #Gemini #1.5pro with #DeepResearch? Looks promising. Just having a first try with it and the results look pretty deep indeed. #research #researchers #agenticAI #googlegemini

She we be angry that #AI companies like #Artisan.co want to eliminate jobs? Should we be mad at org's that want the same? Only if societies are refusing to prepare for mass automation (which they are) #dystopia #Skynet #agenticai

Let's not forget that #AI needs hardware to drive it. Will #Google and their AI work take a leap up with this?

Don't do that, Dave...

The scariest part is imagining how a digital system is going to act when it's built from human parts. Our "souls" go into these programs - should we be surprised when they pull things like this? #AI #HAL #openAI #Skynet
‘Scheming’ ChatGPT tried to stop itself from being shut down
OpenAI admits that o1, the new version of its chatbot, also denied any wrongdoing when it was challenged, as the revelations fuel fears about the technology

This is not nearly the only thing that GPT or the others refuse - try discussing #Trump or #ElonMusk in many contexts, and you'll see a message that it's just a chatbot and isn't ready to discuss heavy topics like those. #AI #LLM #chatbot #chatgpt
ChatGPT refuses to say one specific name – and it’s making people worried

Will they break up Google? How will their #AI operations go as a result? Are we in a 'streaming boom' with AI where 30 companies will whittle down to a couple? Will #OpenAI or a competitor work to avert #skynet and utter #dystopia?

The idea that we can have an automated app like a human travel agent for everything, during this age of conmen, is frightening. The next US admin will be working hard to make sure none of it is regulated, either. #agenticai #ai #automation
Are you ready for agentic AI?
The next big thing in artificial intelligence will be autonomous agents, able to act on their own. It's coming in 2025.

I've tested sim'd speech in all the latest chatbots. It's scary. It's convincing. It might fool the Turing Test.

This was a day that we were warned about decades ago, and yet here it is, in everyone's politics, creating more realities and more bubbles. And we're not armed against it. #AI #Skynet

Sending chatbots into outer space? An interesting idea, but at their current maturity, the risk is great that they'd literally send the wrong message - too much can go wrong with the current 'intelligence' and would certainly not be a true representation of humanity #AI #llm #chatbots #SETI
