Comment on Saint Luigi
TheTetrapod@lemmy.world 2 weeks agoYou didn’t really respond to the core idea of my comment, which is that AI isn’t doing anything to help us achieve the things that we would actually want it to. And what about the safety concerns around current-gen self-driving vehicles? It’s easy to call everyone primitivists if you refuse to acknowledge their legitimate points.

It has helped me with coding. Coding might be fun. But also incredibly tedious and frustrating. And it’s a job people in general doesn’t want to do in most cases. Hobby coding is not the same as having to code for a corporation. If AI helps taking away hours from those jobs it’s a society success.
Other field where it could be relevant is phone operators. One of the most universally hated jobs. I had to work as a phone operator for a few years and everyday I wish my job could be done by an AI. And I think it actually could be the case. What I did could be 100% done by an AI. Just to spare workers the suffering of having to deal with angry people on the phone AI is worth it.
AFAIK current gen self driving cars are safer than human drivers if we measure medium lethal accidents by traveled distance. I don’t know what are those concerns.
