Bro, literally all I said was that the training dataset was the same.

I'm well aware of how generative AI works. I'm an industry professional who attended the very first AI/ML training course by a major cloud provider back in 2023 and was instrumental in changing the way they operated the AI side of the house.

But the parallels are there. Neural networks are designed based on the human brain, and vector driven databases aren't super dissimilar to how neurons interact. A ton of human memory and processing is based on referential data, like gen AI.

Yes, it might not be able to approximate human intelligence and the actual workings of the brain yet, but it's on its way.

People tend to forget how computers used to take up entire floors of office buildings and a simple hard drive was the size of an industrial washing machine. Gen AI is in its infancy, and while its current state is highly inefficient and flawed, that's all the reason for it to improve.

Is current gen AI a solution for anything? Absolutely not. Is it a stepping stone towards true artificial intelligence? Absolutely.

I swear, Lemmy users would have been the people complaining that Excel and Word would be the downfall of society. There are absolutely legitimate complaints about the technology, but to completely dismiss it without looking at the nuances of the situation is assanine.

The truth is that it's entirely possible for a business to ethically use an LLM. I know this for a fact because I was intimately involved in the implementation of one. The entire thing was trained on our proprietary dataset that had been built over 40 years of industry experience, on our servers which were powered by green energy.
