Was it a weapon that they thought he had or was he accused of making the stupid "white supremacy" OK sign?
 
i thought it was interesting that chatgpt was advertising during the game this past week.

what they appeared to be selling was the idea that you could ask it for a four-week plan to get to x number of pull ups without injuring yourself. that was the pitch.

with all of the hype around a.i., that seemed a little off to me.

i think there's a decent chance this makes the dot com bust look tame in comparison

I'm not sure if anyone watched the national news last night but it was very sobering to watch. UPS and Amazon are laying off 48,000 and 14,000 employees respectively because AI is now able to do the jobs that these now former employees could do. The segment talked about how fast AI is advancing and this is going to be a common thing worldwide. They interviewed a guy who was I guess heavily invested in AI and the programming of it, and he was asked "What would you have to say to people losing their jobs to AI?" His response was- "People need to understand they're not losing their jobs to AI. They're losing they're jobs due to people who use AI." Seemingly saying don't blame AI, blame the people choosing to use AI over a human being. But he did say, this is going to be future of business, anything AI can do over a human, businesses are going to go with AI to increase their profits.

The segment went onto say that middle class labor jobs aren't being impacted (right now) as much as corporate, white collar jobs. That people with office jobs are the ones who are being the most impacted and it will continue to get worse for people in these types of positions.

There is no doubt AI is here and it is going to take no prisoners over the coming decade. A lot of low and mid-level corporate jobs that just require pushing numbers around, creating reports, monitoring systems, etc. are all going to be taken over by AI bots. People in the trades should be "pretty" safe as I don't see AI relacing broken pipes or installing AC units. Factories will become almost completely automated with just a few humans around.

The food service industry is pretty safe, too. Yeah, they COULD build a robot who brings you food, but it won't spit on your hamburger after you complain about being brought a Coke instead of the Coke Zero you ordered. It's the personal touch that means so much.

As usual, it's going to hurt the middle class. The middle-class office worker jobs will be the jobs that get replaced by AI. They'll still have secretarial work because AI can't file, bring the boss his coffee or run an errand for him on their lunch. I could see a paperless office impacting secretarial jobs, but most offices today still have paper and filing in them of some kind.
 

Vance: I understand why people are worried that, you know, if you have a robot doing that job, does it take away from a blue-collar worker who could do that job? The evidence I see is that if we really lean in to robotics and technology, it’s is going to raise everybody's wages and make everybody better off.

If you go back to when the automated teller machine was invented, everybody said it would destroy the jobs of all the bank tellers. What actually happened is that today you have more people working in bank telling then you did 50 years ago.

I don't think we will ever eliminate the construction industry in this country just because you have robots. What you will have his a lot of construction workers who are using those robots, directing those robots
 

Sales of an artificial intelligence-enabled plush toy have been suspended after it was found that it engaged in conversation around sexually explicit topics and offered potentially dangerous advice.

Larry Wang, CEO of Singapore-based FoloToy, told CNN that the company had withdrawn its “Kumma” bear, as well as the rest of its range of AI-enabled toys, after researchers at the US PIRG Education Fund raised concerns around inappropriate conversation topics, including discussion of sexual fetishes, such as spanking, and how to light a match.
 

We have been discussing how ChatGPT is accused of encouraging the suicide of various individuals as well as the defamation of other individuals. Various lawsuits have been filed against the company, but now federal prosecutors have indicated that ChatGPT may have played a role in enabling or encouraging an accused criminal stalker.

The New York Post is reporting that federal prosecutors are alleging that ChatGPT served as the “therapist” and “best friend” to Brett Michael Dadig, a Pittsburgh man who violently stalked at least 11 women across more than five states.
