What staff costs? They pay them like 10p for getting up at 6 in morning, half an hour before they’d gone to bed in their rolled up newspaper, then slice them in half with a breadknife and dance about on their graves.

What staff costs, I walk around needing help in shops and I can barely find anyone available.

Its. Not. Fucking. AI.
Jfc this muck is going to make us as blind as a bat when an actual artificial sentience appears. An LLM does not an intelligence make.

I always considered the sci-fi def of AI to be the incorrect one. Once sentience appears. The intelligence is no longer artificial.
Seems to me the systems we have now that try to (badly) fake it, are real AI. And any created intelligence would be a Digital Intelligence or even just Created Intelligence.

They’re not intelligent, though. The only thing they can do is repeat patterns according to prompt. That’s literally all an LLM is - a massive relational database hooking up words and phrases, or repeating the laws of physics on a vast scale, or copying out design principles. Its nothing more than a stochastic parrot. It has no sentience, and sentience cannot be romanticised into it.

The only true AI is the Elites in the original Halo.
