Comment on AI Is Starting to Look Like the Dot Com Bubble
Ragnell@kbin.social 1 year ago@Reva "Hey, should we use this statistical model that imitates language to replace my helpdesk personnel?" is an ethical question, because bosses don't listen when you outright tell them that's stupid.

Yeah, but that is a very real ethical question about usage of it as a tool. We could have the same discussions about any kind of machinery. Those are fine questions to ask.
I am more talking about those “ethical questions” that assume the so-called “AI” might be sentient, or sapient, destroy the entire world, destroy art as we know it, or have any kind of intent or intelligence behind their outputs. There’s plenty of those even from reputable news sources. Those that humanize and hype up the entire “AI” craze, like OpenAI does themselves with all this “we are afraid of our creation” sci-fi babble.
