And yet here you are, commenting, on this 'waste of time' post. You wanna tell me about "playing yourself?" 👌🤣👍

I completely agree, I just was getting way too spiteful and frustrated for my own health, it was messing up my RL friendships.

This place can be like talking to a condescending brick wall sometimes, especially if you want to talk about philosophy instead of engineering.

He did mention in silico trials so I’m guessing he means being able to simulate human clinical trials so we can make it move faster. Not even close to possible now since we can’t simulate a human but perhaps in the future

Yeah np

👆 this, 100% this. You've said it better than I ever could, thanks!

Estimates on what month Sam will fire all the humans and let GPT handle all dev going forward? Could be substantial savings.

Estimates on when GPT will fire Sam? Just imagine, the last big expense cut out of the loop.

Hehe, I can see what you're trying to do. Very funny. I suspect that we agree about more things than we disagree on.

Thanks! Glad I managed to keep my spite under control enough for my point to come across at least a little.

Right on the first bit, but not the second. Nobody's 'wronged' me, it's just like talking to a very condescending brick wall around here and I've got fed up.

Just spiteful venting, that's all.

Yeah, but I'm feeling like a spiteful bastard. Sorry for spilling my mess out over the sides like this, I couldn't help myself.

Very nice, you're quite a charmer. Regretting my decision to leave already...

Edit: ahahaha, and I just noticed your username, 'bitchslayer'. Just fking lovely, what a special character you are. I'm sure I'll miss this community so much 😅

Thanks!

I mean I have 0 worries, in fact I’m excited for the future as tech just keeps growing we still have many things left to achieve using coding. Smart cities, VR, AI, etc

No one is really that worried about short term automation outside this sub which sometimes feels like the flat earth society of AI.

>I'd argue that the transformer architecture(the basis for large language models and image diffusion) is a form of general intelligence

It could be. A big part of the problem with the discussion is that most equate "intelligence" and "sentience". An amoeba is an intelligent system, within the limits of its domain, though it has no self-awareness of itself or its domain. A certain kind of intelligence is at work in a chemical reaction. So intelligence and even general intelligence might not be as high of a standard as most may think. Sentience, self-awareness, agency...these are the real benchmarks that will be difficult to achieve, even impossible, with existing technologies. It's going to take environmental neuromorphic systems to get there, imho.

The OpenAI was literally created for one reason, to create a safe AGI. So this is like reporting that water is wet.

AI is not going to speed up clinical trials.

You have to proceed slowly by design. Phase 1 need to prove safety at low doses and scale up slowly so you don't end up intoxicating patients.

And that's once you have recruited patients. Some trials die at patient recruitment. And most trials don't move to Phase 2, let alone 3.

And taking bigger risks only means killing people.

(I work on clinical stage biotech.)

I'm excited to be able to run something like that locally. Their model blew my mind. Only a matter of time, now.

Yeah, they all claim that their job is much more complex than can be automated and then their explanation fails to describe anything that can't be automated. My guess is we see programming jobs halved at least. Maybe in the long term some of those jobs shift towards working with LLMs or AI but in the short term a lot of people are going to be out of work.

Research is getting faster, they all build on previous papers made also by different authors.

Well… Shit.

How quickly do you think all this progress will translate to people with mental illnesses. I have schizophrenia. Should I expect to live some of the rest of my life without this disease?

Yea you're gonna need to cite sources for claims like that.burden of proof and whatnot.

Can this thing figure out what's in my email address?

-Old ass congress people

any links to studies that back your statement?

A physician has to prescribe something new, or perform something new, and none of them wants to be first or out of step with the majority.
