Your skills are irreplaceable, and your body is expendable . Work harder !

Honestly we'll probably get there eventually. There are already AIs capable of making video game footage look realistic, and we can simulate physics in game engines with some degree of accuracy.

There will likely come a point when researchers are able to simulate the physics and graphics accurately enough that they'll be able to train AIs in these simulations and have them work in real life.

I take it you haven't seen the recent advancements in both robotics and LLM powered agents

[–] Ringmasterincestuous@aussie.zone 52 points 1 year ago (1 children)

If it’s LLM and robotics it better get used to having dick in it

[–] asbestos@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago

holy fuck thanks for the laugh

I didn’t, mind providing links?

Yep. AutoGen + MemGPT (+Locally hosted models) https://youtu.be/VJ6bK81meu8?si=mGnvMTJsLn_vMvRb

Basically, a small company of self-refining LLM prompts that output meaningful results + a robust memory management for more long-term back and forths. Instead of "one input, one output. Next"

Another example: https://youtu.be/5Zj_zstLLP4?si=nHu4vHwidRmvuViY

I can share more examples and papers if desired.

On the robotics front, the focus is still on training custom models for given actions. Which is having some success: https://youtu.be/Jy3zjXK4ao4?si=yFdqnl8z9Z8Becsc

https://youtu.be/WlIYa3lH5UI?si=FQSZAm44h3FuuCoR

I'm convinced these "hivemind agents" will pass custom model training soon

Just wait until someone connect chatgpt to one of those gigantic 3d printers that print buildings.

Are we really that far from having “AI” do this?

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 18 points 1 year ago (18 children)

You can't 3D print laying all the pipe and the electric cabling and adding fixtures and insulation and all sorts of other things homes need.

You can 3D print the basic structure. That's it. You're saving on bricklaying or carpentry.

[–] ImpossibilityBox@lemmy.world 13 points 1 year ago (3 children)

And the second that it is economically viable the companies will be dumping their bricklayers/carpenters down the drain and replacing them with computer controlled construction methods.

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago (28 children)

When will it be economically viable to dump all the people who have to set up the equipment and all of the people who have to do everything but make the basic structure? Is this 'house set up and entirely built by robots down to the light fixtures with no human intervention' a near future proposition?

[–] jasondj@ttrpg.network 8 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (2 children)

When was it economically viable to replace hand-sewn lumber with lumber mills?

Then they went and made portable electric saws. What a world!

And then electric drills! And laser levels!

Remember paper ledgers and abacuses? Ever hear of Microsoft Excel?

We keep making tools that always increase productivity and reduce time and cost. It’s Constant incremental progress, and on a large scale it’s great because it frees up (human) resources to focus on new industry and technology, which furthers the CIP. On the micro scale, there may be a small number of temporarily displaced workers as jobs shuffle around and workers re-skill.

But at this particular intersection of technology, we are at a pretty bad spot. We are on the verge of massive progress in multiple industries, and wealth has concentrated in the elite classes. “Temporarily displaced workers” won’t have the capital to re-skill or invest their own resources into new industry. This is bad.

Still need someone to build it for the computer. What would really help the "AI" is to have something that can handle the creation of different interfaces and modules. Then, it would need to solve or mitigate the maintenance conundrum of repairing itself when it breaks.

I think there were already projects of this with ChatGPT

[–] Obi@sopuli.xyz 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I was gonna say Netherlands as that's the kind of shit I expect from Dutch architects, but upon further inspection, Germany?

[–] Zerush@lemmy.ml 9 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

Austria, Museum of Modern Art in Vienna. I have no information about the substances or medications the architect has taken.

Well, meanwhile in Canada....

[–] meowMix2525@lemm.ee 7 points 1 year ago

Looks like a normal day in Australia to me...

[–] hackris@lemmy.ml 46 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (2 children)

Ahhh yes. In capitalism, if you create a machine that can replace say, 10 people, you don't give them 1/10 of the work. You fire them and maybe hire someone to operate it.

Machines and human workers can coexist. They don't have to replace them.

Edit: Of course they should replace them, but only after we get good living conditions for unemployed people, which are currently non-existent.

[–] Kedly@lemm.ee 14 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yeah, we arent going to get our Jetsons future if we refuse to restructure our society towards not having to work instead of just fighting the tech because its taking our jobs away

They should replace them. What really needs undoing is this imbecilic idea that only workers deserve to live comfortably.

Lmao they are 3D printing houses right now. We're all jobless in the future, bud. Thats a good thing.

[–] Strykker@programming.dev 16 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Have you seen a 3D printed house? They look like shit with their lumpy walls, and you still have to run all the plumbing power, and ventilation.

[–] Nurse_Robot@lemmy.world 29 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yeah, technology will never continue to develop!

[–] Dangdoggo@kbin.social 13 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

Nobody is saying that but reading a headline that says "Construction company prints some walls!" and then saying "welp that's it they're out here just 3D printing whole ass buildings" is pretty uh... Dumb.

[–] Nurse_Robot@lemmy.world 11 points 1 year ago (2 children)

And the picture says "your skills are irreplaceable." If you truly believe that basic construction is irreplaceable then I have bad news for you.

No they aren't :/ They can make bricks and 'print' walls, which is really just a cool way of pouring concrete. Hardly printing a house.

[–] Kanda@reddthat.com 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

He thinks it's a good thing

[–] Netrunner@programming.dev 27 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

He thinks we get universal welfare.

I think we get a bigger wealth gap and huge poverty.

[–] ChickenLadyLovesLife@lemmy.world 13 points 1 year ago (6 children)

Once the elites have everything they need or want provided by AI and machines, we get death.

I know this probably wasn't op who did this, but I have to ask: who the hell puts a watermark on a meme?

[–] some_random_nick@lemmy.world 16 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Quite a few well known memers, not the peseants though

[–] EveryMuffinIsNowEncrypted@lemmy.blahaj.zone 12 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (3 children)

I don't even understand the benefit of it. It's not like memeing is a job where you have to protect your intellectual property. Why even do it? Do they think so highly of themselves that they need to "protect" memes that they create? They're randos on the Internet adding captions to images, not V/A professionals...

It also goes against the longstanding spirit of Internet memes, that they are things to by definition be shared, not intellectual property to be bound.

[–] Ser_Salty@feddit.de 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

They want to drive traffic to their pages so they can make ad and sponsor money

Ironically you could use a Stable Diffusion AI plugin to remove the watermark in GIMP.

Yep, there will always be room for humans in the suffering industry.

[–] anon232@lemm.ee 19 points 1 year ago (1 children)

We can 3D print buildings so we're almost there.

[–] NaibofTabr@infosec.pub 43 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Sort of... we can 3D print walls out of specific concrete blends that run nicely through an extended hose system that runs from the mud pump to the print nozzle. But, concrete has a limited time as mud before it starts to harden, so you can only print for so many hours before you have to stop and flush out the pump and hoses before it turns into rock, and the concrete mix can't be too chunky (like including gravel) to flow through the system.

Also, if you get all that right, then you can print walls... but not structural frames that would support a multistory building, or plumbing or electrical wiring or insulation or windows or roofs...

We're a long way from 3D printing a building wholesale.

[–] iforgotmyinstance@lemmy.world 10 points 1 year ago

Inb4 Boston Dynamics rolls out the self-building building.

Ai made this to pretend it's an idiot political nut.

Fuck bro imma be real pissed when robots start doing MY manual labor
