i hate these CEOs with a passion

for the average Joe (people outside of lemmy) it’s hard to be positive towards ai when it increases the price of their general purpose compute. it’s also difficult to be supportive of it when all it does is inaccurately plagiarize and threaten to take away peoples jobs (although we know it can’t really replace anyone as the tech isn’t reliable and needs constant attention)

SlopVidia

good

Hey guys, I think the guy who stands to make a mint on all this AI stuff has a point, we should be nicer to the plagiarism machine

If he wants to ease peoples minds of AI then he should be advocating to regulate it so we can know it's not being used in harmful ways. Regulation and transparency (to a degree).

~~The negativity around~~ AI is hurting society

How, fuckass. How.

Also i don't think you are aware, but society is people.

It has not done enough damage if it is still promoted.

Lol. Negativity around AI has done damage, but draining water and electricity in magnitude not seen before has not?

P-lease

Is he one of those Harry Potter fanfiction weirdos?

Clearly not enough damage has been done since Nvidia's stock price is still in the stratosphere.

it's not doing any damage at all. look at the fucking goddamn tech industry right now. it's absolutely rampant. it's being adopted like crazy.

any company could use it well enough that they can pretend that they don't use it and then the problem is solved how about that

Its hilarious how hard tech bros are panicking over underwhelming AI revenue after they bet the entire economy on it.

Read the article to see if he makes any valid point, couldn't find one.

When 90% of the messaging is all around the end of the world and the pessimism, and I think we're scaring people from making the investments in AI that makes it safer, more functional, more productive, and more useful to society," he said.

So, I was about to invest some money to make AI safer, to avert it's dangers, but now somebody warned me about those dangers, so now I am scared to make the investments to make it safer. That makes a lot of sense /s

Seems to me it's not investments into AI safety you're worried about, it's the investments into the potentially dangerous service you're worried about.

You know what would help society? If you spent all those billions on climate protection and clean energy, creating new jobs and a better future instead of causing the complete opposite effects.

You, fucking billionaires, are the ones doing ALL the damage and it's time for your heads to roll down the guillotine.

Please stop being negative about AI, it hurts my company if you don't all love our shit!

Let me rewrite that: Man who makes trillions manufacturing Ai hardware, says "people expressing how shitty Ai is and how it makes life harder" is going to cause me to lose money.

Butlerian Jihad When?

What "society" he is talking about? More like his social circle of techbros and fucking shill-bots on X.

These guys project like crazy.

Maybe if my entire team of 120 wasn't laid off to automatization I would be less sour. Ass.

Are there gangs of people following this guy around and berating him non-stop? because he deserves that

Oh fuck off with that. Y’all are promoting the technology with the promise of replacing human jobs. What did you think the response would be?

That is not to mention building it by literally stealing the wealth of human thought and then being surprised that we’re mad you want to sell it back to us with brand new monthly fees. Fuck off with all of that.

All AI models should be required to be open sourced to compensate humanity for this theft of our labor and ideas.

Man whose finances are reliant on scheme really wishes you'd all stop talking about downsides of scheme, more at 11

No, Jensen, you got that backwards, GenAI itself is hurting society and has done a lot of damage, the active and well-deserved pushback against it ain't hurting anyone.

Your grift is what's killing the world, asshole.

I would have a lot less negativity around AI if the mag 7 and all AI companies agreed to sign a contract to be nationalized once they have automated a significant amount of jobs, with their profits to be used for a national basic income. I would be much more positive in that case, Jensen. Give it some thought.

"Won't somebody think of the CEOs?"

Says the guy who runs a 4,9 trillion dollar company mainly because of AI, what damage? WTF!

It's stealing our water, poisoning our land, is helping erode trust in institutions and each other, hallucinates, gives bad advice and worse summaries, bothers our hearing, raises our electricity rates dramatically, all but ensures we won't meet our climate goals, offers us nothing of value, is something none of us wanted and most of us hate, is constantly being pushed down our throats, and is intended to allow the wealthy to access the benefits of the talented while preventing the talented from accessing the benefits of wealth.

AI is a cancer and must be destroyed.

Jensen Huang is hurting society and has "done a lot of damage"

Not enough negativity, we need

Just buy a 5090 bro. Maybe two. Look at this leather jacket.

Maybe do less harm with it. Maybe less people actively dislike it then. Usefulness aside.

I say relentless Jensen Huang is hurting society and has “done a lot of damage.”

Counterpoint: fuck off
