I’ll only be happy when they make an AI powered robot that can do the dishes and laundry for me
Times have changes sadly

I can’t really get behind a “do all robot” that wanders my house fully autonomously.
What I would prefer is single purpose robots, mounted or bolted in place, designed to do one thing well.
For example, robot arms that put laundry into the laundry machine, or robot arms that do the cooking in the kitchen. Something similar to how Tesla had that autonomous plug in “snake” charger once you parked in your garage.
Having a fully autonomous robot walking around the house is somewhat unnerving to my TBH.

I’ve seen a LOT of dystopian sci-fi with ai robots and not a lot of utopian sci-fi (even a struggling utopia) sort of at all, so yeah, hard agree on the single-purpose non-ai non-IoT robots. We already have so many of them, they just aren’t able to load themselves yet, though many can turn themselves on when programmed.
Also just massively easier to make, fewer things to go wrong. Locomotion, for one. If it never really has to move, or never off track, that massively simplifies the design and maintenance. Now it just needs proximity sensors instead of whole-area mapping technology.

The best solution is to create such a robot with AI yourself and configure it as needed.

You’re right, making a robot that’s more advanced than anything currently available, sounds like a nice and simple weekend project 🙈

“Everything” was supposed to mean chores, not art and all the other stuff that makes life worth living.
Also, there’s this whole “having to earn a living” thing that we haven’t gotten rid of yet.

Because we got the dystopian AI and not the utopian AI.

Sam Altman: and I think we can pay people in compute power. Like they’ll get tokens that they can then use on the intelligence.
Thats why tho

I mean that american billionaire says that doesn’t mean the tech behind it is bad.
AI doesn’t need big tech, there is a huge open source community
becausechemistry@piefed.social 2 days ago
That’s true! There are plenty of other reasons why the technology is bad.

People don’t yet understand this very simple fact
I run my own models, on my own hardware. There’s nothing tech-bro about it

They’re basically the same “adapt or be left behind” hype

I mean, it was a fantasy.
In the fantasy, AI would be doing the stuff you DIDN’T want to do. Any time it freed up meant you’d get paid the same, just work less.
Obviously the second point was obviously not how it’d pan out… but in the fantasy it did.
When the rubber hits the road, the reality crushes the fantasy. A lot of the work it’s doing is stuff people were passionate about doing. And obviously the tooling is being used to buttfuck everyone on the planet to enrich like 1000 people.
For a great many things and people, the fantasy is better than the reality. It’s the same general concept of life lessons like “Don’t meet your heros” and “You can never go home”. I’m frankly envious of people who are confused by this.

My hope was that we’d have UBI before AI/immersive VR got too good, because otherwise we’d get the dystopia. When I said hope, I didn’t mean i expected it; I was just hoping against the terrifyingly more likely outcome.
MousePotatoDoesStuff@piefed.social 1 day ago
We can still make it happen. The AI isn’t coming as fast as the techbros are hoping. We still have time.

Oh yes I am soo happy with AI doing my job finally!
Now I can happily live as a homeless person!
Thanks AI bros for that life of leisure you promised!

I think the problem is that people are just dreamy jerks who ignore reality, because it’s more pleasant and easier. Although I am no better, I confess that I also decided to believe in lies, and now I have to pay for my naivety and stupidity.

Idiots listening to CEOs telling them the great things AI can do, like buying AI stock will make you money and AI will be your chat bestie never telling you anything you don’t want to hear, but the leopards are waiting to eat their faces.
Subscriptions for AI access, AI inserted into everything, wrong answers, humans being laid off, water resources being consumed rapidly, higher energy prices… and people will be unhappy, forced to pay their AI access fee to ask AI why things suck.

This is the funniest thing.

Because AI doesn’t do shit for you, not in reality.
The fantasy was a world in which all needs are met because of AI.
The reality is AI is massacring jobs and being put in charge of systems it is fundamentally unfit to work in. Its also poisoning our environment, skyrocketing energy costs and computer parts, while also being used for mass surveillance.
What is with all this bullshit pro-AI slop propaganda I’ve been seeing on Lemmy, lately? Been seeing lots of mfers invade these communities and spread bullshit.

I don’t know about Lemmy specifically, but in my experience, unskilled people who love AI are extremely vocal about it, to the point where some would go as far as to denigrate actually skilled people.
My hypothesis is that AI exacerbates the Dunning Kruger effect.

By the way, it’s interesting that these aren’t always bots, sometimes they’re just brainwashed people. Although I am not sure, all this is complicated, it would be interesting to know in more detail what is going on in the minds of such people, because they sometimes resemble some kind of sectarians or drug addicts.
