If AI was going to advance exponentially I'd have expected it to take off by now.

    And the single biggest bottleneck is that none of the current AIs “think”.

    They. Are. Statistical. Engines.

      And it’s pretty great at it.

      AI’s greatest use case is not LLM and people treat it like that because it’s the only thing we can relate to.

      AI is so much better and many other tasks.

      You’re not going to get an argument from me.

      How closely do you need to model a thought before it becomes the real thing?

        Need it to not exponentially degrade when AI content is fed in.

        Need creativity to be more than random chance deviations from the statistically average result in a mostly stolen dataset taken from actual humans.

      Maybe we are statistical engines too.

      When I heard people talk they are also repeating the most common sentences that they heard elsewhere anyway.

A “Showerthought” is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you’re doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The most popular seem to be lighthearted clever little truths, hidden in daily life.

Here are some examples to inspire your own showerthoughts:

  • Both “200” and “160” are 2 minutes in microwave math
  • When you’re a kid, you don’t realize you’re also watching your mom and dad grow up.
  • More dreams have been destroyed by alarm clocks than anything else

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. No politics
    • If your topic is in a grey area, please phrase it to emphasize the fascinating aspects, not the dramatic aspects. You can do this by avoiding overly politicized terms such as “capitalism” and “communism”. If you must make comparisons, you can say something is different without saying something is better/worse.
    • A good place for politics is c/politicaldiscussion
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy’s Code of Conduct and the TOS

If you made it this far, showerthoughts is accepting new mods. This community is generally tame so its not a lot of work, but having a few more mods would help reports get addressed a little sooner.

Whats it like to be a mod? Reports just show up as messages in your Lemmy inbox, and if a different mod has already addressed the report, the message goes away and you never worry about it.
