21 sats \ 1 reply \ @gmd 28 Aug \ parent \ on: My Two Sats Proposal for SN Growth meta
I've never looked at posting fees tbh, i just post when i feel like posting. The ~$50/m price tag is a bit hard to swallow though
21 sats \ 3 replies \ @gmd 28 Aug \ on: My Two Sats Proposal for SN Growth meta
10k/m seems too low. Maybe start with 25k/m
I do wish there was a better way to just see stuff from territories i've "subscribed" to...

Collectively, yes. But sadly, this is me and most humans... fairly unremarkable
42 sats \ 1 reply \ @gmd 27 Aug \ on: Nano Banana! Image editing in Gemini just got a major upgrade AI
Only played around with it a little but its pretty fucking cool. For most needs you no longer need photoshop...

Sure collectively humanity beats LLMs today, but compared to any single human, LLMs would obliterate them in terms of perceived creativity.

I got nothing... honestly my first thought was to put this prompt into CGPT and see what it said šŸ˜¢
42 sats \ 0 replies \ @gmd 25 Aug \ parent \ on: Do you think AI will replace more jobs or create more new ones? AI
yup. people keep saying that we will find new jobs... but the difference from other inventions is that AI is commoditizing the very thing that makes us human... intelligence. Once we have achieved super-human intelligence, why would we employ anything more than the minimum number of supervisors? All of the new jobs will be better performed by AI.
the AI will free people to do "more interesting things"? Just do some international travel and you'll realize that there are already billions underemployed or working shitty service jobs with the bandwidth to do "more interesting things" but there's no opportunities- people want white collar work, which AI will eventually decimate.

Does anyone use these at all? They were fun for a minute before the AI boom but they're still so stupid...
1021 sats \ 0 replies \ @gmd 21 Aug \ on: medicine goes AI AI
Seems like diminishing returns on creating a specialized vs foundational model...
At the extreme performance end these tests end up boiling down to trivia/minutiae... I guess I can take pride in getting a top 10% score for a human way back in the day... not bad for a human lol.
the upshot is this:
  • doctors alone scored 73.7% on diagnosing patients even when using google etc.
  • doctors using GPT scored 76.3%
  • but GPT alone scored 92%.
šŸ‘€ ... When they say you will be replaced by someone that knows how to use AI haha

I'm sure it will all get better when we lower interest rates... dark, indeed
21 sats \ 1 reply \ @gmd 20 Aug \ parent \ on: What creative ideas have you been rambling on? Design
Haha not rocket science but if they buy closer to the latest support = green, if they buy closer to the latest resistance line = red. My problem (and I suspect many others) is I'm always FOMOing in near resistance only to see stock prices pull back.
When you are gambling on a diverse portfolio of shitcoin fiat stocks like me I think it'd nice to know where the value is to invest your dry powder.

If they had good internet (starlink) a long train ride cross country would seem like a cool way to digital nomad / get some remote work done...
42 sats \ 1 reply \ @gmd 19 Aug \ on: Some thoughts on movies I watched recently - Superman, Blade Runner 2049, 2001 movies
Need to watch Superman... just watched 28 years later the other night... started off amazing then was underwhelmed in the latter half. I guess not to different from the original which is my favorite zombie movie of all time.
