Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.
This is not debate club. Unless it’s amusing debate.

If there’s a singularity here, it’s that OpenAI is a black hole that all the money falls into. And you’ll never see it again.

@dgerard
Sam Altman is in the singularity, in that he is now convinced LLMs are smarter than him, he doesn't understand the tech or how it is evolving, and he doesn't know what's going to happen next.
The rest of us are not in his exact predicament. I was going to say we're fine, but nah.
I truly cannot tell which of them are in religious psychosis and which of them are shameless liars
Day 3 after the singularity. Rate of change still the same, no warnings about light cones, and openAI still didnt make trillions of dollars.
Worst. Singularity. Ever.
Getting a T-Shirt that says “I entered the Singularity and all I got was a plagiarism machine, a higher cost of living and this stupid T-Shirt”
Clearly the shirt also needs a big typo.
@Soyweiser @dgerard You can't get all of the shiny cyberpunk over-the-top special effects when you syphoned the budget into the stockholders' debauchery fund.
What if Musk is the financial singularity?
First he's a trillionaire, next year he has 2 trillion, the year after that 4 trillion, and so on, until he owns more dollars than have ever existed, at which point the US treasury collapses into a black hole and is never seen again.
@Phosphenes
Come on it can't be so easy to overcome capitalism - just wait till it collapse 😉
@Soyweiser @dgerard
Yea.... OK can it still count the R's in strawberry? Or Xs in October? Or have a timer for a mile run?
This technology is a joke
The seahorse emoji remains my favorite for showing how LLMs are completely incapable of handling obviously false information in their training data.
AI Overview special cased it, booooo
Did they remember to cover the other ones mentioned at 4:20 in the video (igloo, starfish, traffic cone, flip-flops, Eiffel tower, cotton candy, fork)?
The true Tech Singularity foretold by prophecy is that all Tech Bro Billionaires will become hopelessly single.
the techbro singularity will be the AI bubble popping.
