All things AI.

I wonder if certain industries will have almost ring fenced pricing. If things like PlayStation's, mobile phones, tablets etc all start going up considerably then people just won't buy them.

Surely the manufacturers and the subsequent supply chain won't just goodbye to a reliable source of money?

The manufacturers will eventually catch up but it'll take time. God only knows what the prices will be after the boom of AI is over and I do believe legislation will finally catch up with this new technology and tech will flood the market.

I watched an interesting thing about how the new generative AI, where we are asking it to do our fundamental thinking, unlike things such as calculators and other helpful tools, is going to make our species much more dumber over the generations.

I have a growing feeling of living in the matrix every day.

I think that is incredibly speculative - in fact, there is evidence to suggest that AI assisted learning may be way more effective than traditional teaching. One such study published in Nature this year: https://www.nature.com/articles/s41598-025-97652-6

It's anecdotal, admittedly, but I've learnt a tonne of new skills using AI as a sparring partner to test my understanding (building a website, for example). I frankly, would never have learnt these things without the support of an AI being available.

It starts to make sense when you think that people pay vast amounts for personal tutors. We all now have an app in our pockets that is capable of replicating the teaching style of Socrates. And we can learn whatever we want... music, history, mathematics, programming. As long as you approach it from the angle that the AI can and will be wrong about things, and you have to be on your guard and understand the sources it's referencing. But I had to do that with human teachers as well - humans make mistakes and have biases too.

The truth is that we haven't really got a clue at this stage how AI might impact us on a societal level. My guess (and it is a guess) is that it will be a force multiplier. Those with a hunger to learn will reach levels we've never seen before, those who aren't that way inclined will get AI to do everything for them - but I'm not sure that we will notice the difference as these were the people who didn't have any intellectual curiosity in the first place. It will just allow them to hide it better.

25% try 100 to 200% for RAM it has gone crazy, SSDs seems quite cheap in comparison. I have 32gb of DDR5 might sell it and retire to Cyprus.

i9-14700k with 128GB DDR5 RAM master race.

My GPU is comparatively shite though, 3060RTX.
 
Once AI realises we are the main issue with the planet we are fucked

An army of G1 robots turning terminator is decades away ;-)

Not bad for a consumer grade machine, assuming you mean the 14900K rather than the 14700K. I'm running a Threadripper 9980X with 512GB of DDR5-6400 on my workstation.

Elon Musk's Grok AI alters images of women to digitally remove their clothes

The BBC has seen several examples of it undressing women and putting them in sexual situations without their consent.

Depressing as fuck.

It's chaos on there at the mo, have people getting Grok to put women in hijabs into little bikinis and shit. All the only fans girls are using it for promotion, and all normal women are having their pictures defiled.

Wonder if there is any legal repercussions or are their tons of T&C's to hide behind.

Regulation is nonexistent. It's the reason they are cesspits. There needs to be fierce legal frameworks put into place, but there doesn't seem to be appetite to change course.
