    Someone should use AI to flood his company with emails, customer service requests, return requests, service tickets, etc. Just an endless avalanche of AI generated demands that must be dealt with immediately. And let it go on forever.

      better yet make every phone in every office, industrial park and warehouse ring. “Hi can I speak to Jensen? oh he’s not there? will you take a message? FUCK OFF CLACKER!”

      ring ring over and over again, flood those voicemails and make them hang their head every time it rings.

    Old people’s opinions are often the result of failing biological hardware, or wetware if you prefer. He should focus on anti-aging instead of forcing people to use comical tools used to make farting fat men for anything serious or important.

    Maybe he should fly on an AI piloted airplane until it lands right.

        Yes but I consider avionics to be almost quaint compared to the complexity of modern computers and software. A FADEC is still just a FSM, deterministic, and based on Boolean logic.

        From what I’ve seen of this new-fangled AI stuff all the kids are talking about, it seems the ideas of IF-THEN-ELSE or functions, or code itself, are about as relevant as rubbing sticks together to make smoke, not even a fire.

        Being able to run zillions of “parameters”, whatever they are, on endless quillions of petabytes of “training data” to get … something… is something that’s beyond my ken.

        But I still think we should shove this old stinker in an AI-designed and flown plane. Have you read this novel:

        https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Incompetence_(novel)

        He didn’t predict AI, but rather, a future that makes Idiocracy look preferable.

          Back when videocards were mainly for playing games, Jensen specifically was very explicit about his idea that games will not sell cards forever and they need to find a way to sell cards an mass for some other purpose (I still don’t think he was right, but oh well). They did and still are doing a lot of very important scientific work, applying their stuff for research, from chemistry to astronomy, very cool stuff. Unfortunately, science pays less than virgins gambling on math equations, so that became their main focus after some time.
          But man, imagine the parallel world where we spend as much time and energy on science, as we do now on autocomplete that can fool idiots.

          No. AI models are pre-trained, they do not learn on the fly. They are hoping to discover General Artificial Intelligence, which is what you are describing. The problem is that they don’t even understand exactly how training even works. While engineers understand the overall architecture, the specific “reasoning” or decision-making pathways within the model are too complex to fully interpret, leading to a gap between how it works and why it makes a particular decision.

            My assumption wasn’t that they learned on the fly, it was that they were trained on previous interactions. Eg the team developing them would use data collected from interaction with model v3 to train model v4. Seems like juicy relevant data they wouldn’t even have to go steal and sort

              That’s true to an extend, but the interactions are only useful for training if you can mark it as good / bad etc (which is why sometimes apps will ask you if they were useful). But the ‘best’ training data like professional programming etc is usually sold at a premium tier with a promise not to use your data for training (since corporations don’t want their secrets getting out).

              You can’t train ai on ai output. It causes degradation on the newly trained model.

                First: that’s wrong, every big LLM uses some data cleaned/synthesized by previous LLMs. You can’t solely train on such data without degradation, but that’s not the claim.

                Second: AI providers very explicitly use user data for training, both prompts and response feedback. There’s a reason businesses pay extra to NOT have their data used for training.

    I would not be surprised in the slightest if the cause of Nvidia drivers being absolute dogshit lately is because this absolute fucking MORON is forcing the devs to use AI to code the DRIVERS. THE ONE THING YOU DO NOT WANT FUCKING AI MEDDLING WITH.

    If Microsoft did it with Windows 11 (which resulted in various SSD failures for a bunch of people), I have no doubt in my mind that Nvidia does it too.

          That’s binary blob drivers for you, you just try different versions and hope it gets better someday.

          One of the big advantages to open source drivers is that you can do a bisect to track some new breakage back to a specific patch. Sure, most people don’t know how to do that, but there’s a lot of people who can. And then the problem gets fixed for everybody.
