The alarmism around AI is just a marketing spin.

As @pluralistic@mamot.fr wrote: that’s “mystical nonsense about spontaneous consciousness arising from applied statistics”.

Real problems we face with AI are:

Ghost labor, erosion of the rights of artists, costs of automation, the climate impact of data-centers and the human impact of biased, opaque, incompetent and unfit algorithmic systems.

    “AI” has been diluted to mean nothing but marketing wank. 99.999% of “AI” is single variable linear regression estimation. Almost all of the rest is multi variable linear regression.
