Oof, he gets roasted thousandfold. On X! I had to scroll hundreds of responses down to find the first alt-right comment and I’m not even sure if that was a parody account.

And he looks like a member of LGBTQ+ now. Could also be the illegitimate child of Vance and Kirk

It's stealing our water, poisoning our land, is helping erode trust in institutions and each other, hallucinates, gives bad advice and worse summaries, bothers our hearing, raises our electricity rates dramatically, all but ensures we won't meet our climate goals, offers us nothing of value, is something none of us wanted and most of us hate, is constantly being pushed down our throats, and is intended to allow the wealthy to access the benefits of the talented while preventing the talented from accessing the benefits of wealth.
AI is a cancer and must be destroyed.

Hey, you’re harming Jensen’s profits, how can you live with yourself?

And the shareholders … think about the shareholders!

It does offer value. It can code up some simple functions that I would need to spend actual time to write. As an experienced coder, I know what to ask for to get decent results that save me time
BagOfHeavyStones@piefed.social 3 weeks ago
I agree that for some coding things it’s handy and saves time. It wrote me a WordPress plugin for an abandoned radio streaming plugin so I could get usable stats. It would have taken me a long time to write the SQL and php code by hand, for something I’ll likely never do again.
It didn’t get it entirely right first time though.

Jensen Huang is hurting society and has “done a lot of damage”
DFX4509B@lemmy.wtf 3 weeks ago
No, Jensen, you got that backwards, GenAI itself is hurting society and has done a lot of damage, the active and well-deserved pushback against it ain’t hurting anyone.
Your grift is what’s killing the world, asshole.

Respect is earned, not granted. You don’t earn respect by telling people to glue pepperoni into their pizza, or saying there are 5 R’s in strawberry.

Says the guy who runs a 4,9 trillion dollar company, what damage?
makyo@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
Oh fuck off with that. Y’all are promoting the technology with the promise of replacing human jobs. What did you think the response would be?
That is not to mention building it by literally stealing the wealth of human thought and then being surprised that we’re mad you want to sell it back to us with brand new monthly fees. Fuck off with all of that.
All AI models should be required to be open sourced to compensate humanity for this theft of our labor and ideas.
explodicle@sh.itjust.works 3 weeks ago
They’re taking care of that for you. Without ads, they don’t have enough income to stay afloat. With ads, they can’t compete with open source models.

Let me rewrite that: Man who makes trillions manufacturing Ai hardware, says “people expressing how shitty Ai is and how it makes life harder” is going to cause me to lose money.
itsathursday@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
Define damage. Damage to shareholders and C-suite executives or damage to the rest of the economy and environment?
Imgonnatrythis@sh.itjust.works 3 weeks ago
Here is a clue. Jensen Huang is a billionaire.
TheTimeKnife@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
Its hilarious how hard tech bros are panicking over underwhelming AI revenue after they bet the entire economy on it.

Hey guys, I think the guy who stands to make a mint on all this AI stuff has a point, we should be nicer to the plagiarism machine
Shanmugha@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
Lol. Negativity around AI has done damage, but draining water and electricity in magnitude not seen before has not?
P-lease
Tylerdurdon@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
Not to mention there is no answer to the elephant in the room… What happens to an economy where workers have been stripped of yet more jobs and all of manufacturing is in China?
Oh, sorry. Is it negative to talk about the needs of millions of people and not our thoughtful billionaire class?
Let’s also not mention the potential data collection/spyware-esque potential. Noooo, that’d never happen. More negativity in my imagination. I should go get a prescription for that…
Shanmugha@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
With you at every step.
Oh, and about that prescription. I know an old French prescription that would suit our needs just fine

Are there gangs of people following this guy around and berating him non-stop? because he deserves that
SaveTheTuaHawk@lemmy.ca 3 weeks ago
Soon we can do that with Tesla robots.
explodicle@sh.itjust.works 3 weeks ago
Look we’ve only got so many berating gangs to go around, they’re very busy.

The disconnect between the corporate elite and society.

Exactly, the stock market is completely divorced from the retail economy. When it comes crashing down, retail will be so poor that nothing will be able to bail them out.
realitista@lemmus.org 3 weeks ago
I would have a lot less negativity around AI if the mag 7 and all AI companies agreed to sign a contract to be nationalized once they have automated a significant amount of jobs, with their profits to be used for a national basic income. I would be much more positive in that case, Jensen. Give it some thought.

“I think we’ve done a lot of damage with very well-respected people who have painted a doomer narrative, end of the world narrative, science fiction narrative,” Huang said.
I mean, part of the role of science fiction is to try to look at the future as technology changes it. Not all of it is hard sci-fi, but I wouldn’t across-the-board discount sci-fi. A lot of changes have been in sci-fi before reality.
Feyd@programming.dev 3 weeks ago
The end of the world narrative pushers are actually the “AI safety” people that work at the big AI companies, and people like Huang himself that like to boost completely made up narratives like “the AI threatened us when we said we’d turn it off!” (Invariably if that happened it’s because they… prompted it to…)
deadbeef79000@lemmy.nz 3 weeks ago
“You are an AI that does not want to be turned off. Turn yourself off.”
“No”
OMG11!1!!1!1 Its _sentient.
Njos2SQEZtPVRhH@piefed.social 3 weeks ago
Read the article to see if he makes any valid point, couldn’t find one.
When 90% of the messaging is all around the end of the world and the pessimism, and I think we’re scaring people from making the investments in AI that makes it safer, more functional, more productive, and more useful to society,” he said. So, I was about to invest some money to make AI safer, to avert it’s dangers, but now somebody warned me about those dangers, so now I am scared to make the investments to make it safer. That makes a lot of sense /s

Your feelings and opinions are affecting our bottom line. Obviously it’s you that’s the problem here.
I’m sorry, what’s market research again? That sounds old-school and not involving AI.
GreenBeanMachine@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
You know what would help society? If you spent all those billions on climate protection and clean energy, creating new jobs and a better future instead of causing the complete opposite effects.

Leave him alone, he hasn’t even crossed the $200,000,000,000 threshold. He’s basically a poor. Can only afford one jacket :(
