Does anyone else think that the old refrain of letting nerds run the world was actually incredibly misguided because nearly all of them lack the social skills necessary to not be sociopaths?
As a nerd who slowly grasped social skills over decades, while most of my cohort did not - yes, hard agree. Case in point - the AI-zealot posting all over this thread.
Nerds? You mean a select few oligarchs? Nothing wrong with learning and technology. I know over half of Americans read at a middle school level and think they’re all geniuses from social media and memes. However, some of us do enjoy intellectual pursuits and technology for good use. This shit hole country decided to vote for this administration that is hostile towards everyday people and doesn’t believe in regulating a bunch of malicious billionaires.
By feeding people’s collective cynicism, lack of social skills, general paranoia, lack of trust in each other, waning hope for the future, etc.
Do have a humanities background? All tech people should have one.
I have both actually. There are many, many use cases for AI and again, they were used before people like you even knew it was a concept.
Well, you’re not putting it to very good use.
I use machine learning all the time for stats what do you mean 😭
Stats.
