c. Corporate Intelligence Squared: Riding the AI Bandwagon
As companies continue to amass data lakes, they’re looking to LLMs like BloombergGPT to unlock their potential. From few-shot learning and text generation to conversational systems and data analysis, these models are revolutionizing the way we utilize corporate intelligence. It’s only a matter of time before every company with sizable datasets jumps on the AI bandwagon, unleashing a tidal wave of specialized AI models that will shape our future.
d. A different kind of automation — and many more to come
This trend points to the inevitable: Generative Pre-trained Transformers (GPTs) or similar is set to become General Purpose Technologies (GPT). On the one hand, this means a short-term hiring boom for AI engineers (Prompt engineers for $300k?). In the medium to long term, this points to a future brimming with automation, boldly invading job territories we once assumed were humans-only. What a fascinating turn of events!
a. The Corporate Hunger Games: Survival of the Smartest
Once upon a time, in a land ruled by corporations, a deadly game commenced. The objective: create the most powerful AI system in the realm. Why, you ask? Simple. In the age of digital gladiators, only the strongest AI shall prevail, while the weak shall perish in the unforgiving landscape of obsolescence. This is the capitalist jungle, my friends, where corporations must develop über-intelligent AI to stay afloat, or risk being devoured by the competition.
b. A Futile Plea for Sanity: The “Stop” Button That Never Was
As the AI arms race rages on, a few researchers cry out, “Hold your horses! Let’s assess the situation before we create Skynet!” But alas, their pleas fall on deaf ears. The relentless march of progress tramples their open charters and leaves them in the dust. After all, who has time for ethics when there’s money to be made and market share to be seized?
c. Capitalism: The Invisible Hand That Feeds the AI Beast
Behold, the wondrous force driving our AI evolution: capitalism! This marvel of economic systems fuels our competitive urges, pushing us to create ever-more intelligent machines. For better or worse, capitalism’s inherent evolutionary pressures will continue to drive AI advancements unless someone (hint: regulators) decides to put a cap on it. But who needs regulations when you have unbridled innovation and the sweet, sweet smell of profit?
d. AI Inception: Machines Making Machines
