I see very large web applications from inside. They're not really premade, but we're usually several layers of abstraction above HTML

Are you sure you can't tell me whether my neural interface that lets me control reality will come in multiple colors or not? Seems like a really simple question that somebody should be able to answer.

In an interview, Sam Altman (CEO of OpenAI) said the input would be probably evolving from prompt engineering to a more natural language.
See it like an iterative conversation with the system, giving it constant feedback using no (or very little) amount of those magic keywords that are necessary for the model to work right now.

We've considered this -- the show is actually on about a 2m delay, but otherwise, it's entirely live. You can't see it in the iteration I have streaming rn, but the entire show is configurable... if you want less of one character, we can do that. Want more of one setting? We can do that, too! More lines per character? etc.
It was a design decision we made so that the audience (in the future) can morph the narrative of the show. We actually monitor the Twitch chat and can pick up keywords to help shape the narrative (without defining it, the generative stuff does all that). So we wanted to keep to the 2m per scene concept. Might need to do something like that in the future (batching), though, if time-to-create keeps being a constraint for 3D models.

Well, that's what I see in my company. No one is writing HTML or raw JS or building Rest APIs anymore. Everything is either generated, or behind many layers of frameworks, or both.

Likely if you were to replace 100,00 people. with the manager included you would need 5 people to keep up the system. The manager, 2 day shift, 2 night shift. And it is likely those 5 will actually cover a system that replaced half a million or more depending on distance and what not.
And even then their jobs will be replaced as it will be cheaper having robots installing, fixing, etc other robots and an AI control unit controlling it all.

This is super fascinating, thanks for this. Obviously it’ll get better as you incorporate newer tech.
One thing I’d do is pay attention to advancements in music generation like MusicLM and once that tech matures I’d make a version of 80s MTV where all of the music and music videos are AI generated. Sitcoms take a bit of time investment but back in the day you could pop in and out of MTV for a few minutes and catch a couple videos, I think that really works well with this “forever” model. And offering 80s MTV and 90s sitcoms would get a ton of attention and traffic.

When every product and service and the design of future design become like the air we breathe, so plentiful that no one needs to pay for it, however precious they may be, there will be no job, no exchange, no currency, no need for possessions, and no obsession to accumulate things. Our mind will be finally free to imagine something meaningful, without trapping ourselves in wants, without riding on the slave labor of others, without exploiting our environment to an inevitable extinction.

I think the specifics and information have to be provided somehow. I saw a utility someone made that uses checkmarks, that could help. Neuralink might allow this to more directly provide parameters.

This restaurant isn't even close to being fully automated yet, so deriving that conclusion from this post strikes me as a bit odd.
I think those numbers might rise in the next few years (think somewhat less than Covid numbers at most), but I'm highly skeptical there'll be this unemployment crisis that you're describing at some point this decade.
AI and robotics has indeed made significant amounts of progress over the past few years (especially AI) the technology today is still nowhere near capable of performing the entirety of a large chunk of the workforce's jobs; fully replacing an employee's complete set of tasks is a much higher bar than merely augmenting the employee. And even the augmentation era has yet to fully get underway (although we're obviously seeing early signs of that with ChatGPT and the like).
And that's not even taking into consideration that mass adoption of new technology takes a good while and in many cases has to go through legal hurdles before being adopted at all.

I would say daycare/kindergarten staff. Parents just want someone to look after their babies for a while and robots are out of question for that.

that seems to be the least likely outcome given the intense competition in the space. it's a problem that's having billions thrown at it.

People will have to develop the skill of composing the proper prompts to get what they really want.

>In any case, nothing you said negates my point about UBS.
I was just getting into the part where you're factually incorrect.
>I never said the jobs were replaced 1:1, nor that the same people working at McDonalds would get those jobs.
Then what was the point of the comment?
