Amused at how Altman helped himself to a woman who denied him multiple times, because he was fond of her*, and despite the fact that she was literally the only person in recent history to sue Disney and win - and that no one else in his circle tried to dissuade him (or had enough pull or made enough effort to be successful).
Says a lot about the people at the helm of the "AI revolution".
Will we honestly talk about the trickery in the “Be My Eyes Accessibility with GPT-4o“ video? Like the taxi that uses the signal way before the passenger signal and actually basically passed the signalling passenger before the signal and still coming to a stop? Or that we don’t see any real processing time? Or that the voice is clear despite standing in London with speakers on? (1/3)
@yatil
It's impressive given that a decade ago neural networks were barely capable of distinguishing between a dog and a cat. However all those canned responses to recognizing London stuff are not evidence this is anywhere close to the sentient AI depicted in the movie "Her". You are basically conversing with a mutated remix of the cached annotations of thousands of gig workers in India and other countries spread across Africa and the far East. https://thedailyguardian.com/indias-data-annotation-revolution-gig-workers-fueling-ai-training-boom/

Just check the video yourself. At 0:46 the taxi has already put its left turn signal on to indicate an intention to pull over. A full 3 seconds later at 0:49 the blind man extends his arm signalling to the driver. He cannot see that the taxi was already going to pull over. The voice over of GPT4o doesn't tell the blind man that the taxi was already going to stop next to him so he didn't need to do anything. He is fully convinced that no one else flagged down the taxi
I have some #GenZ coworkers and was telling them about how we used to take our car stereo face plates with us when we left the car back in the days when stereos weren't integrated into the dash and you wanted a nice one.
The factory stereo in my 19 year old car was draining the battery flat in less than a day when parked, so I replaced it with this one. Halfords was selling off their removable faceplate stereos cheap and I got this half price

Wonder why they cut the ending. Perhaps the twist reveal came too early in the plot so this extended ending just seemed to drag things out. https://youtu.be/lB17_peD96w
Compare this with how eXistenZ paced their plot twist reveal
TL;DW We're starting to see early evidence of diminishing returns with our current AI architectures. If this is true, then eventually they start to improve in a logarithmic manner, making superintelligence (at least using our current architectures) impossible to achieve from a practical standpoint. The issue is that we need too much data on specific things for it to perform well on them all.
