    This isn't a new thing. I remember about 10 years back, an Israeli company put out a camera that used "AI" to provide a printout describing the object you took a picture of. Turns out, it was just sending the picture to a person in India who would write the description. As someone who has worked for multiple big tech companies, I can tell you that a high percentage of "AI" is just people in India.

    I work in tech. Some of these Natural Language Processing NLPs can be good for some tasks, they can look up information and give you results you want faster than doing a google search in a lot of cases, they can do math and other things, maybe. But there's a lot of things they just aren't good at and are really just being overhyped.
    One more thing while I'm on a rant: Taking this idea further, I read story after news story about how AI is going to take all these jobs. I would urge news outlets to be a little skeptical of this-- I'm also reading stories about "AI washing" which means that companies are claiming that they are using AI and it's causing layoffs when really the truth is we're in a recession and the company wants to look good when it announces layoffs. "AI washing" can refer to pretty much any way a company is lying about AI

    • @taragnor
      @taragnor 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      Yeah. AI for the most part is very overhyped right now. You know it's a problem when everything is "just around the corner", but what we have today just isn't all that useful. I've heard full self driving cars, AGI, AI coders, general purpose robotic workers, etc. are all just around the corner.
      Thus far, the language models like ChatGPT have proven to be an interesting toy, but not particularly useful once problems get difficult, and not really capable of reasoning. Self driving cars still seem rather far away, and about the only place I've really seen much impressive is in AI art, where it seems that AI art does have the ease of use and potential to actually replace artist jobs. But as far as the rest, it seems to be a bunch of hype to raise stock prices.

    I used to shop at one of these that closed down and I have to say it was the most bizarre experience ever. It was like a shoplifting simulator. It's the most bizarre thing to just go in a store and basically pick things up and then walk out the door. The only interaction beyond grabbing things from the shelf that you do is you present your phone as you enter but after that you have no interaction whatsoever with anybody or any machine. Even after doing it a few times it still felt strange to just walk out like that. As you know even self check-in you have to go through all the motions it's just with a computer screen instead of a person. Here there's no motion except walking

    I think the tech does basically work, but the problem is you need such high confidence like 99.999% accurancy or something.
    Consumers might let some mistakes slide and still use the stores, but if you got charged /double charged erroneously once out of every 100 items you touched or something like that, it would become noticeable almkst every trip to the store. Or if the store didnt charge you for x% of items you took because the AI wasnt sure, they could end up taking a loss.
    Its kind if like self driving cars, the real world and human behavior is so unpredictable, its a huge problem space for AI to get good at.

    Krystal gets creamy whenever a private company fails, especially a large company like Amazon, because the government is so much better. I implore anyone to visit the DMV of any state or the SSI. You will call the SSI just to get a phone appointment and wait 4 hours just to do that. They call you back 2 weeks later only to do over the phone what you could have done on the Internet, essentially talking to a person filling out a form you could have done yourself 2 weeks ago.

    Check your grocery receipt. Every time I used a clerk in the past year, there was an error or errors upwards of 10 bucks. The average error is 10% of the total. Pricing, double scanning a single item inputting the wrong identifying code ...the list is as long as the errors. On 150 worth of groceries, it's substantial. And why does the error ALWAYS amount to more? Statistically, that should be impossible...
    At self checkout they can fix any error I made without standing at customer service.
    Why would I EVER believe AI could accurately handle this.

    Just a note: workers overseas might be cheaper to pay in US dollars but work standards and unions are much better developed there than the US in most cases. Offshoring services helps elevate people overseas to middle-class status in my experience.

    In grocery they have to have someone setting the prices and stocking the shelves. Produce prices fluctuate more than anything. If the prices were set properly in the machine each week all the food has to have on them is a name ID number. Although once people learn how things are chipped, they can be switched out for cheaper item microchips or blocked from scanning with metal. So a security person would have to be at the door. Looking at the automatic receipts to see if you actually got 12 packs of gum or there are 12 steaks in the cart being charged as gum. Or you have a tin foil covered mound with an apple on top & the receipt says you’re just buying an apple.

    This is in tandem with Walmart and Kroger halting production of new self-serve checkouts in favor of human workers because it was easier for people to steal and/or mistakenly enter the wrong products. It's really funny watching the captains of industry faceplant this hard. They all wanna be Tony Stark, but end up being just Daniel Clamp from Gremlins 2.
