Marginalized Americans are highly skeptical of artificial intelligence

  As skeptical as I am, I’m feeling pressure to join the BS train on this. It’s literally all over LinkedIn… Even though I’m sure it’s all mostly bullshit, it doesn’t matter that I think. What matters is that this is where billionaires are dumping their money so I need to be in a position to get some of it or I may not be able to be gainfully employed in 10 years.

  I think just about everyone who is not an executive at a tech company is highly skeptical of AI.

    You’d hope, and yet I’ve had people on Lemmy give me shit for being overtly anti-llm

      My problem with LLMs is that they’re expert pattern matchers and little else.

      Ask them the integral from 1-5 of ln(x) and they’re sure to screw it up.

      They’ll give you something that sounds like the right answer, but their explanations are nonsense.

      I hate that it’s being shoved into anything and everything right now, but saying you’re “overtly anti-llm” seems a bit over dramatic to me. LLMs are a tool like anything else. Used properly and in the right situation, they can be very helpful.

  Proper headline:

  “Intelligent People Understand the Limits and Dangers of AI; Unfortunately AI Company Leaders Do Not, and Seek to Silence Opposition”

  Makes sense given that AI has been trained on all the prejudiced blatherings of humanity so far, and it just tries to imitate.

  How do they define ‘marginalized’?

    In this study, we conducted a survey (n = 742) including a representative U.S. sample and an oversample of gender minorities, racial minorities, and disabled individuals to examine how demographic factors shape AI attitudes.

    They checked to see whether or not they had Lemmy accounts.

  Marginal people, on the other hand, love it.

  I use AI daily and find it useful as a tool. Ut also frustrating in its current state. The disgusting default buttlick responses, trying to please the user with drooping fake polite drool. And then the many, many mistakes.

  And it’s a new tool, so yea it need to ripen…

  And that means to go all in on a company strategic level of AI as a technology is dumb.

  When building a product the problem the product solves is to be the center of the work. Not the technology used to achieve the solution.

    I’ve got some bad news for you. They will never fix the mistakes as it cannot reason, it has no actual intelligence. LLMs are already plateauing and are miles away from being trustworthy. And they steal copyrighted work every request

      There it is. Reason. Machines can’t reason. Not one. They can fake it. They can mimic. But they cannot reason and never will

  The trick is for everyone on the seesaw to move as far away as possible from AI, then it’ll balance or tilt in favour of the people
