they also contribute quite a bit to extremely useful open source projects that don't actually make them money currently such as https://www.dartlang.org/ https://flutter.io/

i'd say TensorFlow but they use it quite a bit internally and it's integrated pretty heavily into a few GCP products

End fake news? not a chance

would be nice if journalists in general had integrity for the truth

too bad it's all agenda based these days

In theory, once AI becomes advanced enough, we could use them as impartial editors/curators for news

The problem is, by the time AI becomes advanced enough to do that, the people creating them will have ways of making the AI think it's unbiased even though it is

I don't think we'll ever get to that point, since rarely are events ever so cut-and-dry.

AI will completely miss the nuance and spirit of a situation, placing only the cold hard facts in their place.

I don't think AI is or will be capable of understanding context, basically.

Maybe not in our lifetime

It will eventually though

We, ourselves, are essentially biological machines. I'm sure at some point in the extremely far away future, we'll reach the point in which we can create AIs that are on par, or superior to human beings. But that's nowhere near our lifetime, for sure.

Then again, maybe not. It _is_ just speculation, after all.

My parents may live to see self driving cars become normal, or almost normal. Don't underestimate technology as I'm sure my parents would have thought self driving cars were something of science fiction well beyond their lifetime

I think it's safe to say that is not quite a fair comparison, since there's a difference between self-driving cars following a map, and an AI capable of reason and understanding nuance and context.

Flying bitcoin cars when

@JadenFrostwolf you say that now. My parents are in their late 60s

There is a difference between the tech that got us to he moon with less power than a calculator and a car that can do a bit more than follow a map.

Except we had more than just tech with less power than a calculator which got us to the moon: us.

Remember, we're biological machines, remember?

We got ourselves to the moon using limited technology, but we were the ones that created and used those tools, and ultimately actually got to the moon.

AI would make a fantastic filter for biased reporting, incorporating online trends, buzzwords and obvious subjective qualifiers would flag every MSM article pretty much

Exactly.
An AI is only as unbiased as the one in control of it.

Humans have been trying to replicate ourselves, duplicate a better version of ourselves, ever since we first started making tools. Look at how far we have come in just 50 years. 50 years. A little.over half an average human lifespan. I find it hard to believe some kind of near human intelligence AI will not happen in my life time just looking back at how far we have already come in such a short time.

dank meme AI

you should differentiate between types of AI

as someone who's been studying radio formats, I have to say 40 percent advertisement is pretty steep. The format for most programming, radio or TV, is 25 percent.

Also, you could possibly post videos to your patreon ad-free, or with reduced advertising

its not 40% though

its 14%

right now every video has an ad in the beginning

the promo videos replace google ads with direct ads from me

Only issue being that even Google's ads can be easily skipped 5 seconds in, unless the ad is really short.

youtube red's obnoxious ads a few years ago single handedly got me to install adblock

dont worry, i disable adblock for my favorite youtubers

unless youtube is on a "you have bug eyes" ad spree then i just throw my monitor across the room

anyone not paying attention to Qanon, what are you doing? https://qcodefag.github.io/ Together We Are Strong

what are you talking about?

btw @Timcast I love how your using your need for revinue to also make people aware of vpns. They are needed now more then ever in this growingly 1984 era

Also a huge fan, and im actually far right wing XD

🤔 VPNs are actually not that useful
