      in rapidly deteriorating ecology throwing 300 billion per year in this tech of turning electricity into heat does seem ill-advised, yes.

        then I guess it’s a good thing that in addition to producing humorous output when prompted with problems it’s ill suited to solve, it can also pass graduate level examinations and diagnose disease better than a doctor.

          Amazing, it can pass tests which it churned through 1000 times but cannot produce simple answer a child might stumble through. It’s not cognition, it’s regurgitation. You do get diagnosed at llm-shop mate, have fun

            Yeah you’re right! What use is having the entirety of medical knowledge in every language REGURGITATED at you in a context aware fashion to someone who can’t afford a doctor? After all it’s not cognition in the same way that I do it.

            How many shitty doctors getting nudged towards a better outcome for real people does this tech need to demonstrate to offset the OCEAN BOILING costs of this tech do you think?

              Can’t wait to pick up my prescription for hyperactivated antibiotics.

              How often do you think use of AI improves medical outcomes vs makes them worse? It’s always super-effective in the advertising but when used in real life it seems to be below 50%. So we’re boiling the oceans to make medical outcomes worse.

              To answer your question, AI would need to demonstrate improved medical outcomes at least 50% of the time (in actual use) for me to even consider looking at it being useful.

                  They’ve provided a source, indicating that they have done investigation into the issue.

                  The quote isn’t “If you don’t do the specific investigation that I want you to do and come to the same conclusion that I have, then no right to speak.”

                  If you believe their investigation led them to an erroneous position, it is now incumbent on you to make that case and provide your supporting evidence.
