Invention of the day

The Institute of Natural Intelligence. INI.

A vocational tertiary institute for training in jobs that are inherently both AI-resistant and robotics-resistant.

When I say “resistant” I mean the way some watches are water resistant. Best efforts and all that, but don’t get the fuckers wet.

Who would teach at said INI? Academics of course, with a pile of help from AI, because they’re lazy fuckers.

Actually, it’s possible that academics aren’t as crazy as I thought. Their work environment is so irrational that it makes it sort of AI proof, unless we can train the models on irrational data.

But that seems like a dangerous suggestion, no? Just ask chat GPT…

“Whether or not it is a good idea to train AI on irrational data depends on the specific application. In some cases, it can be helpful for AI to be able to understand and respond to irrational behavior. For example, an AI chatbot that is designed to provide customer service may need to be able to handle interactions with customers who are angry or upset. In these cases, training the AI on data that includes examples of irrational behavior can help it to learn how to respond in a way that is de-escalating and helpful.

However, there are also risks associated with training AI on irrational data. If the AI is not able to distinguish between rational and irrational behavior, it may start to believe that irrational behavior is normal or even desirable. This could lead to the AI making decisions that are harmful to itself or others. For example, an AI that is trained on data that includes examples of violence may be more likely to use violence itself.”

So yeah, nuh. It’s probably best just to live with the academics as they are.

They have four legs each and can run the INI, no worries. Mate.
