AI is in it’s “biplane” stage, just as people in the twenties would have found it hard to comprehend the future of commercialised flight or a man on the moon, people struggle to imagine the future of AI.
AI is the very worse it’s going to be today, in the grand scheme of things, it’s only going to get better.
Hard disagree.
The dot-com burst would be worst case scenario and I think that’s a long chance.
I understand that some people hate AI or that they feel threatened by it, but I can only imagine that those who say it has no real value are either being facetious or have extremely limited cognitive capacity.
It’ll be no worse than the dot-com burst.
Computer hardware isn’t like a cars engine, it doesn’t get knackered after a 100,000 miles.
If the hardware has been working for the last ten years, there’s every chance it will go another ten years. Hardware is at much more risk of becoming outdated/obsolete than it is of becoming faulty/broken.
I believe it is likely that there will be a burst at some point, just as with the dot-com burst.
But I think many people wrongly think that it will be the end of or a major setback for AI.
I see no reason why in twenty years AI won’t be as prevalent as “dot-com’s” are now.
I’ve lived in the UK since birth and have always had soup spoons.
I thought, “maybe it’s a middle class thing”, but it’s not like they’re expensive and they last forever.

Fair enough. I definitely do that too, sometimes you can also link the post of when the question was last asked.
Typing a query in to Google is faster than making a post on Reddit and yet people still wanted you to do it for them. I never posted “have you tried Google?”, or anything like that, but lmgtfy links were always a fun option.
I hate posts where the answer is the top search result on Google. We’re not here as a proxy for a search engine.
Some subreddits had a “use Google first” rule.
I agree that power zealous mods are shit, but it’s also poor when well written comments and posts, made in good faith, are heavily downvoted for no other reason than not conforming to the consensus of the hive mind, which definitely happens here.
We should be encouraging discussion, not discouraging wrong think.
Every community is an echo chamber except for mine!
Research requires a critical mind. Think of a person you know that has average intelligence, 50% of people are more stupid than that.
And I’m not saying that stupidity is solely an issue for the republican electorate, I’m just saying “do your own research” is an unrealistic expectation.
People need to be engaged with.
More like the oligarchy now have 99% of the power rather than 98%.
The issue is that we believe we have a free democracy when the only power we have is to put an X in a box every few years. The system isn’t broken, it’s working as it’s designed to.
I like to buy albums, I think it’s a much better way to support artists than streaming plus I like getting a physical copy, the artwork and the lyrics etc. But that’s another debate and it was more just an example.
P.S. Sorry, the downvote seemed conveniently timed
I don’t understand your reply.
I just don’t want to buy an album based off of one song I heard on the radio and then find out that I don’t like it.
Edit: a downvote and no clarification of what you meant. Thanks I guess. . .
I just view it as a “try before you buy”. I have loads of CDs and DVDs that I wouldn’t have bought if I hadn’t seen how good they were first.
If I try something and don’t like it then I shouldn’t have to pay for it.
It was an interesting comment that added to the discussion, unlike yours , , ,
Still waiting for this to return to the UK and I’m absolutely furious that it wasn’t so popular that it became a standard menu item.
That’s confirmation bias
