It's just the natural progression of history. Specialization becomes increasingly important, but everyone also has to be generally more intelligent. Not everyone knew how to read and write 2,500 years ago, in fact knowing how to write could be your entire job as a scribe. Now knowing how to read and write is a minimum requirement for being able to function in society, and nearly everyone knows how. The world is increasingly running out of room for ignorance and laziness, you have to learn to keep up. Ryan isn't advocating against specialization or saying you have to learn how to do everything, he's saying to not shut your brain off and be a dumbass.
You are not blowing this out of proportion, and I strongly agree with the expert on people becoming generalists again. I have been arguing this since STEM became a buzzword in education. Squeezing classical learning and liberal arts out of curricula results in people who are more rigid. I found scientists and engineers who were brilliant in their fields often unable to be successful in personal interactions, generally, and working in teams or managing people.
@@Justin_Taylor Prescient video. And teaming with McBeth shows good judgement. But, it is no accident that specialization has become a (the?) fundamental characteristic of the post-Enlightenment Western World. Unless you are sustaining yourself by growing your own food, treating your own diseases, walking instead of driving, unfamiliar with the concept of leisure time, and ironically, writing without broadcasting, you might want to visit an eye specialist to get correction for your reassuring but limiting myopia. Also, based on my years long experience both following and supporting Ryan McBeth and his web presence, not only does he appear to be a well read and expansive generalist of the Classical Liberal tradition, he is also very much a highly skilled specialist computer programmer. (And I am willing to bet that he just might have relationship/communication issues like every other human being out there).
I studied engineering in college because that's what everyone told me to do, but I found that it was all the random liberal arts and social science classes I took either as a general education requirement or just for fun that made me a 'generally intelligent' person (I use both of those words very liberally). I'm sure the same would be true if I majored in political science or history or whatever and took a few math classes for fun.
@@domdomdom02123 my father in law is a retired engineer, but when he was in school he asked a professor how much of what they learned would be useful to an engineer. The prof gave the best answer: "How much of it do you want to use?". There is a push to get rid of liberal arts education because people think it politically indoctrinates people, but it really doesn't. I study and teach biology, but to do that I have had to expand my knowledge in physics, optical engineering, and welding to make the tools I need. Even history classes have come in handy, but the most helpful non-biology learning BY FAR has been philosophy.
@@Stethacanthus I definitely had some liberal arts professors that where insane and attempting to indoctrinate with crazy ideology, but they were the minority.
That is not up to us. To large investors in AI this "problem" is not a bug, it is a coveted feature. Just think of the powerful people on Epstein's client-list. To such characters, devaluing image/video/sound-evidence provides major value. Maybe even a life-saver.
I teach experimental biology (basically a research and experimental design course), and sadly I see a lot of this. Students are increasingly using AI to write their papers, which is okay if they're using it for writing help but not when the AI is generating the substance of the papers themselves. What's scary is these bots know what citations look like, and they fabricate journal articles to match those citations. The solution for grading is to go to the journal and look up the volume, issue, and pages, but the general public just doesn't do that. Real research is behind a paywall, but AI can generate entire fields of study in a bogus journal and trick people at practically no cost. Combined with the general, highly politicized distrust of experts, I don't think even generalists can parse fake biology from real biology. We have repositories of good information, but those still rely on trust.
Are the student who submit AI generated papers expelled from the university for the offense? Is the punishment comparable to the punishment for submitting a paper that was written by someone other than the student who submitted it?
@@emrysmcwryn7902 It is the same as plagiarism/submitting professionally written work. Here is exactly what happens: They get a zero on the assignment, which is usually 10% of the grade or more otherwise they wouldn't be desperate enough to use AI. I explain why they got the zero and give them a choice, they can contest the grade with the department head, at which point I will have to give over my evidence to academic affairs and it's out of my hands, or they can accept the zero with a warning that another incident will result in failing the course. If they decide to challenge my decision, I am forced to send Academic Affairs my analysis, and then they cry in front of a committee about how sorry they are and how hard it's been for 15-20 minutes until they get a second chance but still fail the class. If they do it again, expulsion from the program but not necessarily the university.

great topic! we laughed at the goofy photoshopped military images, and videogames like arma3 and some other videogame cutscenes, and fast forward, and now here we are.
From my understanding the "Ghost of Kyiv" was real, but it was more of a nickname of the squadron defending the airspace in the initial invasion, and not of one particular individual pilot or aircraft.
3rd video on topic of how AI will screw us over from the channels I'm subscribed too in 3 days. Raise your hands, whom already watched Kyle's "Dead Internet" one too?
In aspect of danger and need to worry. To be honest now at a six. The ebb and draw of de facto knowledge based on titles will be guide future tides, in my opinion. The acceptance of something as fact without a type of physical or inperson verification. Already is shaping out to be more of a need. As "shaping" is becoming more prevalent as the old concept blind-faith seems to be back on the rise.
4:52. I disagree somewhat on this. Good prompts would fix potential issues, like if you add somthing on the lines of consider safety and other factors and what they would have present to mitigage issues, ai what fire saftey involves and what osha and similar things are. Ai struggles with self scrutiny and good prompts can force it to do such.

It is frustrating but it feeds into tye Internet is dead theory that Kyle Hill had on a day or two ago, amd Thunderf00t talked about it almost a year ago how Generative AI and ChatGPT will end most useful content and information, its as if the bots are loose.
Some clarification that it was a particular, specific story of a weapons cache under a hospital that was fake, and not all stories, may have been good. Some people will watch that section and believe you're saying Hamas never did that at all. Also, special effects have made it always be possible to make fake images and videos. AI tools just make it easier.
It's funny that you talk about disinformation right after an incredible feat of false equivalence that is breathtaking in its lack of critical thinking and oblivion to what's in front of you by spreading disinformation as fact. You talk about two wars in which a foreign power has invaded another land and acted as rapacious conquerors devouring the land and its people. You then equate the invaders and the invaded in a way that make you look either incompetent or malicious. The Russians invaded and attacked Ukraine yes that's right. But you say that they have to justify their attacks in the same way that Hamas has to justify its attacks? As of they just happened one day with no violence preceding them? As if Israel is not incomparably more powerful than Hamas and is in fact more powerful than Hamas, Hezbollah, and the PLO, which are the governors, with varying degrees of power, of the places invaded by Israel within the last year, and Israel is more potent militarily than the three combined. There were no attacks of any kind by Ukraine to provoke the Russaon attack. Israel has been occupying its own personal donbass since 1967. The creation of Israel was a settler colonial project that was a close ally of apartheid South Africa until it collapsed. The parallels exist only between Russia and Israel I'm sorry to say. If I'm wrong show me how.
This entire video was made with ChatGPT and the Snapchat A.I. bot.

Humans = ‘Fake it until you make it’

That's the best advice I've heard so far. Become a generalist. Learn shit. It comes in handy way more often than you'd think it would
