I think what’s happening here is that yet again*, Cameron has gotten wildly enthusiastic about some technology he doesn’t understand, as someone told him something about it in order to get him to invest in it and he’s working under some weird misunderstanding of what it is and how it works. In this case, he thinks AI is going to make VFX cheaper, by allowing VFX workers to do more. (Except the reason his movies cost so much is that they’re all VFX, and he’s super-exacting about every element, something that AI isn’t going to help with, at all.)
*I saw this with MMO technology when he started working on the Avatar movies. I was part of a game studio hired by the movie studio to make an Avatar MMO before the movie came out. Except that I saw that he did interviews, when he first started working on the movie, saying that he was going to make an MMO himself, that would release simultaneously with the movie. I have no idea what happened, but we were brought on far, far too late in the process (about a year before the movie came out, I think, when we would have needed at least four). Cameron didn’t seem involved at all, except we were told we had to use some MMO tech from a start-up he invested in. The company was made up of internet tech people who had never made a game, much less an MMO, and the tech didn’t work. In the end it didn’t matter, as Fox realized that they had accidentally licensed all the game rights to Ubisoft. The company Cameron invested in shut down not long after. I’m still not sure he knows what an MMO is.
It’s always nice to have the wetness of water quantified, though, especially when someone else is saying, “But water isn’t wet!” (And frankly, the effect was worse than I expected it to be, myself.)
“Human error is a thing, so let’s turn it over to a technology that we know has a 15% to 30% error rate… what could go wrong!!!”
And I’d suggest that the problem to over-worked physicians is to ramp up the pipeline of doctors coming into the field, which is the EXACT opposite of what this administration is doing by their BS on capping loans (or whatever the fuck it was). We will NEVER 100% eliminate human error. Never. We can do our best to mitigate it (and I suspect most doctors do), but handing it over to technology that is so obviously… flawed AT BEST, is literally the dumbest shit I’ve ever heard in my life.
That’s a good start. Also, how about ditch the idea of for-profit health care? One reason doctors are overworked is because they have to see enough patients to make profits for the company (a vanishingly few have their own practices anymore).
A dollar that goes to profit is a dollar not making you well.
Carstens, a longtime freelancer based in Spain, spends a good portion of her day working with startups and individual clients looking to fix their botched attempts at artificial intelligence-generated logos.
The illustrations clients bring to her are commonly littered with unclean lines and nonsensical text, and they look like a mess of pixels when blown up beyond a certain size.
“There’s people that are aware AI isn’t perfect, and then there’s people that come to you angry because they didn’t manage to get it done themselves with AI,” Carstens said. “And you kind of have to be empathetic. You don’t want them to feel like idiots. Then you have to fix it.”
“The fascinating thing is that what seems to have happened here is that during training GPT-5 figured out blind spots of the AI jury and optimized to produce gibberish that this jury liked,” Heilig wrote. “It’s almost as if GPT-5 accomplished something similar — to invent a kind of secret language that allows it to communicate with LLMs in a way that they will like GPT-5’s stories even when they are utter nonsense.”
A Single Typo in Your Medical Records Can Make Your AI Doctor Go Dangerously Haywire
These escrotos must have fed this garbage AI with all the material they caould get in every language: books, comics, scientific articles, technical manuals, cartoons,medicine leaflets, and even pornography.
