Bah, Starmer going all-in on Stochastic Parrots - "unleashing" them, no less! - to spot potholes in roads, which no-one has the money to repair. Wake me up in 2030, fam. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/crr05jykzkxo
@brucelawson the spotting has never been the problem! People report them *all* the frigging time. But putting all the fixing money into the AI, total and complete sense there for sure :-(
@brucelawson @Gorfram I am fairly certain the anti-piracy ad is older than 2004 - isn't it? Or... well... I mean... downloading and uploading digital media wasn't really possible in Australia before 1998 ish... so hmmmmm maybe you're bang on!
@brucelawson just one? Nah!
Now, a pandemonium of stochastic parrots, that has a more alluring ring to it, yes?
But still a no.
