Data was also wasn’t a replacement for human labor to enrich the capitalist class. I think AI would be cool if the tangible benefits made everyone’s lives better rather than just lining the pockets of rich people.because they fan pay less on labor.
“I hope it comforts you to know Doctor, that I am a product of a ego-maniacal, narcissistic rogue scientist rather than a profit motivated corporation.”
DataGPT is what people want. LoreGPT is what people get.
If chat GPT were anywhere as advanced as Data I would 100% accept him as a coworker. The problem with LLMs isn’t that they’re not people, the problem is that they lack any sense of logic and abstract reasoning, relying on heuristic analysis to cover that weakness. As a result, they’re quite frequently wrong, and don’t have a way to know when they might be wrong, leading to them presenting every answer with the same level of confidence.
If
Data = current AI
Then
Modern lifeforms = aerobic bacterium,
Modern flip Smartphones = Motorola Microtac,
SR-71 = Wright Model B,
Rimac Never = Ford Model A.
Comparing Data to modern ai is just an insult to Data.
There was literally an entire goddamn episode about the difference between Data and a piece of equipment you gawping jackass.
In the same vein.
I don’t like it when people call Service Dogs “medical equipment.”
It’s a living, breathing, thinking being. It is not “equipment.”
Bare minimum, it is medical personnel.
I’d assume that the main reason they’re referred to as “medical equipment” is for insurance reasons. They fall under that broad category of patient care, so that’s where they are grouped.
If that’s true, you have capitalism to thank for that specification.
