AI now beats humans at some basic tasks, report finds

ok lets say we do all these lay offs and we replace people at various jobs who is going to pay for their services and products when most of us are unemployed.

AI is now better at satisfying my wife, too; she left me for AI software.

I'm so happy to see these comments being written with an apprehensive tone. So much of the time comments are full of people saying everyone should just get a better job and stop expecting a burger-flipping job to sustain you. That's missing the point. I'm so glad. It starts with an awareness of the problem ai is posing and will pose. It desperately needs regulation. We won't be able to thrive or even survive if things keep going the way they are

"Your scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not they 'could', that they didn't stop to think if they 'should'." -Dr. Ian Malcolm ( Jurassic Park )

How long before AI figures out the single biggest threat to the planet is humans?

I feel kind of triggered whenever people mention that ai will lead to more productivity like this means something good for the average person. We as a society have become more and more productive, but wages for people have not really kept up with cost of living. We are not working fewer hours. If anything we have to work more only to not be able to afford the things previous generations got at an earlier age. What do most people get from companies saying they have increased productivity? It just results in increasing the wealth of the few at the top. Even if they use AI to help cure diseases who will be able to afford it when companies decides to lay people off because they can make do with fewer workers?

so it begins...

AI will increase worker productivity - there's your first admission that AI will be your new boss.

Love the work Stanford is doing to lead the way on objectively informing the public about Generative AI!

The transformers are coming, A.I. made contact with cybertron😂

Oh, you best believe that A.I. is coming for your jobs, just a matter of time. They, the engineers, will keep tweaking things until bam, you wake up one day and your boss says, "we don't need you no more, we found a cheaper, less emotional replacement for you."

The best thing a sentient AI could do for humanity is to prevent us from killing each other, not by force, but by disrupting supply chains, communications, and financial transactions that enable the military machines throughout the world.

How long will they just "augment" human capabilities? Probably only a very short time before replacing humans entirely. Many AI companies think so too

I encounter AI EVERYDAY. I NOW watch movies that have been changed after watching the original in the theater. Beware Humans WILL not exist in the near future. This is harmful for humanity

Yes, such as passing the turing test

"is it smarter than us?" "duh, I don't know!"

It's so human-like to improve something just for the sake of improving it, even when it causes a lot of trouble.

Groundbreaking! Oh wait computers have been better than humans at basic tasks for like 70 years.

Claude and grok are the best AI right now

This is good! Humans are limited, not to mention lazy but we've created something to help us solve simple or complex tasks much better and faster!
