      for the “value” it provides (automated spam, new wave of deepfakes and tailor made propaganda, facilitating layoffs with genai as a failed replacement, and most importantly of all hyping openai stock) any amount of resources spent is a massive waste

        Eh. I’ve built multiple apps in very short succession thanks to GPT. I don’t really care if people think it’s useful or not, I know it is.

            While I appreciate how much you must have looked into my profile to find that, I was actually referring to the startup I worked at in South Korea for half a year. The impact I landed there paved the way for me to get my current job at Meta.

              Who exactly is replenishing their storefront shelves in this conversation? And with profiles?

              You should probably start asking ChatGPT to proofread your comments, too.

                  I was commenting more regarding your misuse of the word stocking in place of stalking, instead of about AI, but ya know… I pointed you in the right direction, and you still missed it, and that says enough.

            It’s so far off being able to make software, it’s smart but will never be that smart… Well if it does we’re all done for.

            It’s a fantastic tool for getting a layout for your code however.

              How far off is it from being able to make code well enough that your immediate manager, with basic coding skills, can just do it? Because that’s going to happen to a lot of people and soon.

                So there’s two arguments happening here; one that ChatGPT is so good that it’ll replace us, and one that it’s terrible and has no usecase. The truth is somewhere in the middle (but I do look forwards to the day it’s the latter)

                Considering I already make tools for people to automate parts of their jobs, and they still struggle. I am not worried at all about that.

                But another thing to consider as well, what’s the point in this whole society thing if we’re not working towards… Not forcing future generations to work.

                We already know there isn’t going to be enough work for everyone, the problem isn’t AI it’s politics.

        Mate you’re babbling like an old man too. Spam has been automated for a long time. Deepfakes are indeed a problem I agree, but again Photoshop has existed for a long time. Tailor made propaganda has existed as long as civilization has existed. Companies in tech space hand their staff layoffs and hiring in cycles, AI was just the latest excuse. And OpenAI isn’t even publicly traded.

        Stop talking shit and touch grass.
