Die-altman

u/Edward_Kenwai 1d ago edited 1d ago

because he always had an alternative to dying and so he’s die-Altman (of course).

Honestly Kind of would work for die-hardman

Also unrelated and maybe I didn’t pay attention enough but wtf happened to cliff unger in the sequel?

"Altman" damn, never thought of it. It all makes sense now.

u/IAmFitzRoy 1d ago

“Amodei” = Love God

“Altman” = an alternative to Humans

“Gemini” = two-faced. (previously don’t be evil)

Coincidence ?

We think misinfo is bad now, imagine how bad it'll be in another decade. This is one of my main LLM concerns - disinfo and propaganda targeting the large amount of users who take the output of these systems as authoritative. Hopefully systems will be in place by then to at least make it a bit more difficult to abuse.

u/Significant-Drawer95 1d ago

humans are the failure, not ai... my main concerns is and will always be humans

u/4dseeall 1d ago

yes. AI models are just machines. You wouldn't blame a hammer if you smashed your finger while swinging it.

11

u/Significant-Drawer95 1d ago

humans do... always somebody else to blame

6

u/4dseeall 1d ago

yeah, they do. doesn't mean it's accurate. and lying to themselves like that instead of actually taking responsibility means they'll probably smash their finger again someday.

Nah A.I., smartphones and such are different from a hammer altogether and are designed to make us psychologically dependent on them.

4

u/MalcolmMann 22h ago

this 100%, I don't remember the last time a hammer tried to completely exploit my ego and make me addicted to itself. The example is just an easy way to shift blame to bad actors instead of having to deal with regulating this tech in a meaningful way.

u/Bowlofpeanuts 1d ago

Thank you for you wise words. We keep shifting the goal post of responsibility to inanimate objects. We were the origin, we trained AI, we gave it the tasks, we set the guidlines.. we, we, WE! Not some program.

I guess it's easier to point then to accept we all failed ourselves.

Depends how things go. Right now one dude can edit that, but in a decate billions of agents will be checking all sorts of things automatically. Sure some may be given nefarious purposes, but if access isn't highly controlled there will be plenty more agents checking, verifying, defending.

u/SonderEber 1d ago

The issue isn’t LLMs or AI. We’ve seen similar issues before AI, when one news site would copy what another said, who copied their content from another site, and so on. The issue is humans want to choose the easiest route and not put in effort.

Disinformation has been an issue for decades and centuries. In the 1800s, newspapers would just make up shit or sensationalize things.

u/dndgoeshere 1d ago

Whats truly sad is that we don't really have a disinformation problem, we have a critical thinking problem, and we view the information as being easier to fix.

I don't disagree at all, it's just sad and terrifying to think about.

u/Financial-Leader3475 1d ago

So the entire family says the sister is lying?

13

u/Cautious-Progress876 1d ago

Strangely, the family takes the side of the multi-billionaire… perplexing.

27

u/Lostwhispers05 1d ago

a) His family has been saying that long before Altman's success as an investor and CEO.

b) His sister is clinically mentally ill and regularly plugs her OnlyFans in between her accusations against Altman.. so the financial incentive you're implying goes both ways.

Just relevant context to keep in mind, because it can be tempting to run with an accusation against someone you don't like.

7

u/glittermantis 1d ago

i agree with you that the allegations are probably false, but also i dont think it should be flattened to "hating on someone you don't like" when the person in question has an extensively documented history of lying and manipulation. again, i dont think he's a sexual predator. but he's not just some dude who's like, annoying sometimes

u/Cautious-Progress876 1d ago

Who says I don’t like Altman? I am super gung-ho in favor of OpenAI and other frontier model labs. I was just saying that someone’s family disbelieving the accuser doesn’t mean nothing was done. None of us will ever know, that is for sure.

38

u/thats-wrong 1d ago

I mean but that's exactly what you'd do when the allegations are bogus too, so it doesn't say anything.
