I guess he didn’t read history books about … (flip flip)
- Robots taking automotive industry in the 80, or (flip flip)
- mechanisation throughout 20th century, or perhaps (flip flip)
- steam machines in the 19th century
Well well he seems to have never touched a history book.

Hahahah
I’m as against the current hype as you.
I’m just anchoring my opinion in that AI has been studied for over 60 years now, and AGI is probably 50 years away. What we’re living is one more incremental change that will compound with dozens of other AI improvements that will result in dramatic changes when seen in 10 years time slots.

Read his multipart on arguing with AI boosters. He covers silly arguments like this.
Also to paraphrase Cory Doctorow, you’re not going to keep breeding these mares to run faster and then one day they’ll birth a locomotive…

Were those technologies working as intended? Cause this Nu-AI doesn’t and still companies are eager to fire workers.

That’s just idiot grifter CEOs afraid of being left behind because they believed hype in the media. Not happening in the timescale that they want, but by 2033 the trend will be easy to spot. And it will be nowhere near the current claims.

Hmm, kinda? A lot of industrialization went hand-in-hand with losing customizability and things made to fit.
A while ago I talked with a woman in her 90s and she said that when she was young, no serious TV moderator would have worn an ill-fitting off-the-shelf clothing.
The same holds true for all sorts of articles: custom-made shoes, custom-made furniture, custom-made houses, for example. All that is relegated to the luxurity sector and most people just go with ill-fitting off-the-shelf industrial goods instead.
AI kinda fits into that department for many tasks. Low-quality translations, low-quality texts, low-quality work, all off-the-shelf and ill-fitting but cheap and mass-produced.

The age of Amazon has made it so much worse… even poor people went to clothing stores and tried stuff on before buying it.
Now, if you don’t want to pay triple, you get it from mail order and just hope it fits - yeah you can return it if it doesn’t fit, but how much hassle is that, if it’s “close enough” people generally don’t bother, whereas if you were in the store you’d get the right size within a minute or two before buying it.
