Your point is valid. Companies do use marketing to sell their products by using lots of outrageous claims. And my problem isn't really what the companies it's mostly with the people who are buying that bullshit.

P.S. your Coca-Cola example would have been better if you had reached back to their origins when they were sold as a tonic that cures just about everything. What they're being sold as right now is just a soda and all of the current marketing around it is just nostalgia bait which everybody uses for everything especially around Christmas time.

Actually, if you look at Robin Williams repertoire of films, he does a lot of very depressing movies. Like the ratio of funny movies to depressing movies is extraordinarily lopsided.

Don't underestimate the nihilism of the Republican party.

I think it's hilarious that you think that the guy with the worm eaten brain is going to fix any of that.

Oh and one of the biggest problems with the FDA is its lack of personnel. And this asshole is threatening the fire most of them. Don't think the next 4 years are going to be a better FDA. It's going to be an absolute shit show and rather than putting safeguards in place this dipshit's going to be removing them left and right. Because that's what the right wing wants, less regulation is the watchword of the Republican party and always has been.

There's also the fact that they take steps to hinder bad bacteria. While nurturing the good bacteria that makes their cheese. It's not like they just throw raw milk into a vat and pull out cheese.

The problem isn't with the AI. It's with how it's being treated. It's currently being sold as if it were general intelligence. Which it's not. It should instead be treated like it's a mindless tool. Something that is inert on its own. Useful for some things but only in a limited sense. Unfortunately the companies, who have spent millions of dollars developing these things, are trying to sell it as the "do-all" artificial intelligence that people have grown up seeing in sci-fi media. Which it 100% is not.

I would replace the word version with aspect. LLMs are merely one part of the puzzle that would be AI. Essentially what's been constructed is the mouth and the part of the brain that can form words but without any of the reasoning or intelligence behind what the mouth says.

The same goes for the art AIs. They can paint pictures based on input but they can't reason how those pictures should look. Which is why it requires so much tweaking to get them to output something that doesn't look like it came out of a Lovecraft novel.

That's because an unnatural portion of his personality is his hair.

Except that she was 18 not 17. And though that age gap is still quite something it's not a "Matt Gaetz scandal" level something. And if you'd actually ever listen to the song you'd know she was pissed about him leaving her for an older woman.
