MSI 4GB version of GTX970. Upgraded a few years ago to an RX6800 and I’m stoked about both GPUs tbh

I don’t know, maybe this is an American thing, but I can tell you that in my country (Spain) it’s generally more expensive to have a luxury flat in the centre of a rich neighborhood of a big city, than it is to have a big detached house in the outskirts. Why would rich people want to live in bumfuck when they can live surrounded by luxury restaurants and services? Rich people live for the most part in big-ass flats in the centre, and then they go to the countryside on weekends to an even bigger-ass villa or something.

More like scrotum master, LMAO GOTTEM

What part is an oxymoron?

I’m not saying we should exclude any tools, I’m just skeptical about the trend of calling everything AI, attributing all computational advances to AI, and jumping into the bandwagon of businesses trying to oversell any and all computating as AI.

The very first link shows that this is incremental benefit that’s been taking place since 2010. Computational tools are useful, but you’re providing mostly links of algorithms/learning models to sort pictures for medical purposes and diagnosis (useful and cool), and saying that somehow that means fusion will be solved by AI

Please give me the examples

So, are there any results of technological achievements from any AI models that show a trend towards increasing solving of scientific and technical problems?

By fusion, what do you mean?

What other type of current AI claims problem-solving capabilities?

No, I haven’t seen any major technological breakthroughs coming from language models, other than language models themselves. Have you?

Wait, you think fusion will be developed thanks to AI?

We’re already there, there’s no need for this hypothetical. We’ve reached the point where we have trademarked plants, and natural cross-pollination with neighbouring fields has led to fines to farmers because they’re technically growing someone else’s intellectual property plant.

Vaccines and drugs whose research is paid for with public funds are copyrighted and poorer nations are forbidden from obtaining them at reasonable prices.

Vanguard technologies like FPGAs are seeing a rise in later years not because the concept is new, but because 40-year-old key patents of the technology started to expire and this allowed third parties to improve on the technology, and increase its availability and affordability.

Time and time again, software and hardware designed and published with open source but licensed copyright (or copyleft) are blatantly copied and modified without permission by big tech, without any credit or compensation to the original author, in complete violation of the license terms, and nothing ever happens because they have better lawyers than the small open source people.

AI models are unlawfully trained illegally with immense amounts of copyrighted material, and then substitute artists with real understanding of the art.

No need to make up hypotheticals for a society in which this already happens

No. Al-Jazeera published a report that the electronic devices that exploded had high explosives embedded, and I’m not in a target country

They absolutely don’t both solve the problem, plenty of homeless people in the capitalist world compared to the 0 people in former USSR

Probably depends on the country, I’m pretty sure here in Spain you can donate books to libraries, and I highly doubt they go to the publisher and call them to ask “hey, want any good ol’ buckaroos?”
