      it’s useless hype, “ai could do x one day” is speculation at best

        DeepMind’s AlphaFold solved the decades-old protein folding problem, and its results are already being used in drug and vaccine development.

      It says AI in the title. That’s all information they need. Most people on social media don’t think - they react.

        No I doesn’t.

        The problem is the term AI has become so broadly used that it’s become meaningless. There is a popular quote about how the quota doesn’t want AI to replace artistic jobs, as if it will. As if generative AI and large language models and projects like this are the same.

        When the bubble bursts, (please let it be soon) we’re still going to have all of the science AIs because those are actually useful. What we don’t need is AI girlfriends.

            Yes I know the title has the word AI powered in it. I never claimed otherwise.

              I make three claims and your response only fits one of them.

              It says AI in the title.

              No it doesn’t.

              That’s all information they need.

              No it doesn’t.

              Most people on social media don’t think - they react.

              No it doesn’t.

                If you’re going to quote some text quote the actual text because you’ll notice that you’re changing it.

                I didn’t say “no it doesn’t” I said “no I doesn’t” which is a different sentence.

                    Just read the actual quote it doesn’t say what he says it says and you’ll notice that no point have I ever edited it.

                    They misquoted me because they didn’t read the quote properly and then doubled down on it. Meanwhile you are now arguing about it despite the fact that it is demonstrably evident that you are wrong

                    It wasn’t a typo it’s a quote from Futurama. Fry says it when the professor says he’s dumb.
