Thread 519198064

Just when you thought AI couldn’t make our lives any better than they already are, just this week DoorDash announced ChatGPT will now be able to order you food, Walmart will implement purchasing in chat, and now this - Starbucks is implementing AI to improve your barista’s skills and enhance your coffee experience. We are literally living in the future thanks to AI.

What you call "AI" is a fancy autocorrect

There are other ways of automation and AI application than llms

The trough of disillusionment is going to wallop all of you. 99% of the top-tier AI content which has you all clutching your pearls is not AI, it's experts in that domain using AI as a first drafting, and then putting in the hours to rearrange it all, find the problems.

The part where AGSI is amazing everyone, boils down to a lookup table, a hash map, and lstm layer interconnected recurrent neural networks trained to transform what you've got to what you have.

You notice where the AGSI shines is when you stay on the beaten trail, as soon as you get out into the weeds, it just makes stuff up and hallucinates it back to sound not wrong. It's turd polishing.

There is no imminent threat. Or if it is, it's still 15 years away. Turing test got it wrong, words seem like god magic, but really it's just glorified barking.

The first mammal joint strike fighting targetting acquisition system, since you need 15 males to take down and bring home the big dinner.

Do you tip the AI?

>>519198453
How is a machine that learns from and adapts to the stimuli it receives any different than the human consciousness? We learn, we adapt, and only to that which we receive.

>>519198453
OK its nice though

in what ways has gen AI improved society?

>>519199177
ask starbucks baristas, chud luddite

It can doordash food, bro

>>519199177
Not only has it caused the drawlocaust but it has applications in healthcare which is of vital importance because I personally would rather trust my old age to ai than to niggers and jeets and spics and chinks and jews

>>519199085
it doesn't learn for longer than a few prompts, it's nowhere near comparable to the human consciousness. what you say is "learning like a human" is what is actually called fine-tuning or in-context learning at best, which gets forgotten even a few messages afterwards before it starts hallucinating or reversing back to the base model.

that's not gen AI, and it's been around for longer than closedAI has been forcefeeding everyone slop.

Gotta achieve that 99% efficiency. Spending millions to ensure not a single cup is wasted.

I really have to shit, can feel it moving its way down. Any moment now I'll have to make my way to the toilet where I will remove all my clothing and sit naked to poop. Alright? Do you understand what I'm trying to say?

>>519199503
The current batch of LLM's DO NOT learn like humans, in that they do not retain factual datapoints, but instead retain only context weighted probabilities. LLM's have got something like a slice of our associative memory system and language processing, but they're not close to a full brain on their own.

What does a coffee shop need AI for?

>>519199500

This is arguably the most important thing immediately. Stable Diffusion seriously lowers the bar to entry for people to start making decent visual media. It's a memeing shitposter's dream come true. The effects on culture will be massive.

> it has applications in healthcare which is of vital importance
stuff like this is the most important long term, though. And it's also an area AI shines, like other anons mentioned, even before current attempts at general AI. I recall reading that an AI that made diagnosis off X-Rays got shut down because it ended up being so good at it, that it started to be able to accurately identify ethnicity just by looking at rib structures in ways humans couldn't and it spooked the researchers because "muh bias", as if rib genetics is bias.

Put into words how AI cashiers and receptionists are worse than lazy sheboons and surly goblinas.

Protip: You can’t

>>519201738
You could honestly replace most little cafes and shops with large vending machines, wouldn't even really need much AI for distribution front-end. Just enough to handle customer interaction and manage any eventualities that would require them to call a technician.

>>519198064 (OP)
Start doing weights and boxing so you don’t have to avoid them and are instead waiting for one of them to provoke you

>>519202007
Fully automated coffee makers have been a thing for years and years.
Nobody has though to call them "AI" yet that's all.

>>519201355
This. Current AI tech's only real innovation is that they've managed to crack the problem of interpreting context thanks to the Transformer algorithm. This has enabled the current deluge of generative AI systems, and it's a huge step towards eventual true AGI. But it's not there yet, as there are lots of other pieces missing.

>>519198064 (OP)
AI is driving up your power bill.

So instead of just going through menus and clicking on what I want I’m going to have to yell customer service rep a hundred times like I do on the phone. Awesome.
Uncle Ted was right about everything.

>>519201606
I may be retarded and currently sitting naked on the toilet taking a fat shit, but at least I'm not some frog posting memeflaggot.

>>519201738
coffee?

>>519202007
having a "third place" really does matter though. if you are in between work and home, you might need a place to relax, or meet business associates/partners outside. starbucks fills this gap well.

>>519198064 (OP)
How the fuck does an AI help a monkey operate a coffee machine? It couldnt be any more basic, especially for the swill starbucks serves and has the cheek to call "coffee".

Taco Bell tried this months ago in a few locations and switched back after just a few days.
The only ones willing to tolerate these shitty chatbots are jeets and the boomers they manage to trick, literally no one else on the planet will put up with them.

>>519202428
>and it's a huge step towards eventual true AGI

The general academic consensus seems to be that transformer models are a dead end when it comes to AGI, and it looks like they're hitting scalability limits already. If we ever get AGI, it's probably going to need to be given a body with which to interact with the real world, rather than just being brute force pumped full of training data.

>>519202007
You don't need AI to take a fucking order.
Simpler technology does the same thing with less margin for error.

>>519202727
>>519203252

They're not adopting AI because it's useful, they're adopting AI because investors are complete fucking retards and lap that shit up.

In fact it's hard to think of a company LESS suited to AI than Starbucks.

>>519198064 (OP)
Two more Billions of tax payer money until AGI.

>>519202727
ai will take your order. that 30 second interaction multiplied by all those customers is money wasted. hopefully they make the robo barista flirty

>>519198621
absolute retard, they dont rearrange shit. i see endless amounts of homepages with ai shit illustrations with 6 fingers and all kinds of visual bugs but the people DONT FUCKING CARE.

what matters is that its cheap and effective, off course its worse than human work but its so much cheaper and quicker.

This isn't the case of generative AI, which is what that guy you're quoting was replying to.

>>519199805
This. I was expecting AI to help with drug discovery, physics, and math. Instead...it can order me food? What the fuck use does this even have?

>>519202727
Starbucks is fastly approaching bankruptcy and in reality they probably get a subsidy they really need to stay afloat for using AI. Mind you gobermints rarely do direct subsidy anymore, they outsource corporate wellfare now because they know some normies are smart enough to follow money trails now.
