It’s built on ‘slave’ labor, illegal use of content and additionally using unbelievable amounts of power so the environmental concerns go right out of the window at a time where we should do everything to not do that.
Also, AI, even if it’s the currently established term has absolutely nothing to do with neither intelligence nor sentience but is being sold as AGI (overpromised).
This has caused huge masses of investment to gather which will pop at some point, causing all of us massive issues due to the missteps of a few.
…additionally using unbelievable amounts of power so the environmental concerns go right out of the window at a time where we should do everything to not do that.
Residential retail electricity prices in September were up 7.4%, to about 18 cents per kilowatt hour, according to the most recent data from the Energy Information Administration.
That’s on a national basis too. If you happen to live in an area with a lot of data centers, your energy costs have probably risen more than that.
Absolutely. That is by all means not an exhaustive list. The shit pile is much higher than that and I regularly forget half of it.
Oh yeah and long term it will cause a massive issue in the workforce since now the junior positions are basically removed and supposedly replaced by AI (but that’s just a very convenient excuse) and at some point we’ll run out of experienced people.
For this the tech bros envision and sell the upcoming AGI which will never arrive though based on this technology as every expert will currently confirm.
But what do they care about messing it up for all of us, they’re already the richest there are so sucks to be us.

Don’t forget that the enormous energy usage is driving up energy costs for absolutely everyone.

Is copying an mp3 slavery as well?
They are talking about ‘Mechanical Turks’ who step in when the LLM falters who are paid slave wages.
Nowhere regarding the mp3 codec (afaik, of course) there are masses of low wage workers required for data tagging for it to work. So no.
