TIL that we invented electricity. This comment is insane but Pichai said that “AI is one of the most important things humanity is working on. It is more profound than, I dunno, electricity or fire” so at this point I’m not surprised by anything when it comes to AI and stupid takes
It isn’t. What’s surprising is the level of bullshit. More profound than fire and electricity seems a bit exaggerated. Why stop there at that point? Might as well say AI is more important to the human species than oxygen.
There seems to be kind of an arms race in saying absurd things at this point. If you restrict yourself to saying merely quite silly things, you’ll look unambitious next to Altman to ai hype idiots on Twitter, after all.
