There are open source ai’s already available for self hosting but atm they’re much less powerful than things like GPT-4, but yeah I agree, and I hope open source ai catches up to or surpasses private ai eventually, however with the insane amount of funding going into private ventures right now I’m guessing they’ll be ahead for the foreseeable future.

Tbh, as soon as GPT-5 or something as powerful Drops and it’s capable of programming its successor AGI/Sentient AI is coming nearly immediately aftwards, so I hope you guys are all onboard for the new ai overlords.

I mean, part of the reason his income has risen by nearly 1000% is due to him hiring illegal workers for below the minimum wage…

Yeah, its mind boggling how quickly technology is progressing, to think we lived for hundreds of thousands of years as hunter-gatherer cavemen and then ~ten thousand as early civilizations to the absolutely insane pace technology has progressed in the last 100~200 years is just crazy to think about.

We went from no electricity, medicine, engines, etc. to nuclear power plants, gene editing & vaccines, jet engine vehicles capable of breaking the sound barrier, and computers that are getting scarily close to replicating human behavior in just 1/100000th the time we spent running around the planet hunting animals in tribes…

It’s quite incredible when you think about it.

That bear’s seen some shit

Thats ultimately the goal of everyone, no?

But something like that reality is not coming any time soon for the vast majority of the world population, even if ai becomes sentient & benevolent, the third world will be waiting decades for any kind of meaningful automation of their jobs happens.

Hopefully in a distant future where Super intelligent Ai does literally everything human life doesnt become meaningless and pointless, without struggle, nor a reason to live or strive towards anything besides what the individual can come up with for themselves, no matter how futile it is in a future dominated in every aspect by ai 100000x’s smarter than themselves.

But… Baldur’s gate and Starfield are completely different games that dont really appeal to the same audience? I dont really see the comparison here besides they both have rpg elements… which is like 8/10 games these days.

welp there goes all my alts I’ve forgotten over the years, RIP

Technology is progressing at such an insane pace, stuff that is real today I would have thought wouldve been science fiction for the rest of my life growing up.

It’s probably only going to continue to accelerate too, especially once Agi/Sentient Ai kicks off in the next decade or so.

Ai near perfectly replicating voices and creating fantastic looking art within the span of it being a joke to very impressive in like 1~2 years.

Also Ai chat models being able to hold a decent conversation and not be gibberish or obviously inhuman is very impressive.
