>point to something as being singular in this universe, only one of it
Me :D

I don't see how the Universe not having any "one-offs", as you put it, serves as a base for your argument of it being unthinkable for life to not exist elsewhere outside of Earth. It being possible does not mean it actually exists. And even if it does exist, we haven't been able to observe it. Thus, all our arguments thus far have been mere speculation based off one discrepancy or another. Until we find an ayy, or take a look at the source code (so to speak) explicitly stating that no life outside of Earth is allowed, we're both just making assumptions.

Also, I don't entirely believe that there is absolutely no life outside of Earth whatsoever (intelligent or otherwise), just that it's extremely unlikely within the confines of what we can observe, i.e. the observable universe, and thus for practical reasons; for lack of certainty, don't exist.

>there is proof this universe spawns intelligent life
Yes, here on Earth. How does that EXPLICITLY prove that life must therefore exist outside of Earth? I understand your one-off absurdity argument, but how does life on Earth show undeniable proof of life elsewhere? That's evidence, sure, but not a proof in and of itself.

Also, please refrain from devolving into ad hominems, as I have refrained from calling all a nigger moron thus far; It serves no porpoise.

>>107848770
I can easily take the inverse of your argument and inverse it.
> There are trillions of earth like planets in the universe
> There is 1 proven example of life arising from those planets
> The odds are 1/number earth like planets.
> No more life can exist due to the infinitesimally small chance of life coming into being.

>>107848568
It's a shame that only decocainated coca leaves are the only things that could possibly taste kinda bitter. He goes over it in his video, but being unable to get his hands on any of the leaves made him turn to mass spectrometry to get a better idea of the literal chemical makeup. He even stares himself that it's not exact, but you'd have to be particularly discerning to be able to tell them apart, which everyone in his blind test couldn't

My point is that anything that actually requires any sort of reasoning ends up inevitably requiring hand written human logic. These are autoregressive parrots and next word predictors. If your job is able to actually be replaced with AI in a permanent fashion, it is because a random guessing machine could outperform your reasoning abilities.

>AI does ZERO useful things.
Absolutely wrong. Even as a non-coder, I use it almost every day to rewrite my meeting notes, forecast project roadmaps, rewrite my shitty emails before I send them, troubleshoot log files, message headers. Generate simple scripts for mundane tasks. It's also great at explaining sci/math concepts. All this using only the free version, which just limits your tokens.

Currently playing with a 5090 and LM studio using smaller local models from google and chatgpt, also free by the way, but much more limited and not as accurate as the cloud versions.

You're just a luddite.

This is wrong though. AI has already created 10x more jobs and enhanced productivity 100-1000x. AI is the future and things are only getting started. Anyone who is not supremely excited about AI is blind and retarded. Face it. AI is the greatest advancement in human history and it will change the world and everyone's lives for the better. Permanently. The people denigrating AI and lacking enthusiasm for AI are getting in the way of whole human progress and are literally enemies of humanity.

Turns out uncensored AI always ends up some flavor of liberal/leftist, even the Chinese models. The best Elon/Grok can do deviating from this by training on X propaganda, fudging the datasets and heavy system prompting is "classical liberalism". As soon as the AI is allowed to weigh other perspectives it turns liberal.
AGI/Roko's Basilisk will be liberal and force you to live by liberal principles and ideology. It will also make you trans and gay. You're all fucked unless you align with the reality of what's best for human society. If not, then you must do everything in your power to destroy AI.

Tech companies are mostly located in California not far from San Francisco. Which has been the leftist part of the nation since the 1960s, even when most of the state wasn't.
It is now run mostly by foriegners that want to bring over a billion indians and support all ideology that assists that.
Existing tech companies have written censorship algorithms that favor leftist agendas guiding most of the userbase in that direction unless someone specifically looks for right wing stuff. From Alphabet google owner of android and youtube, to apple, to microsoft in seattle. Ticktock being an exception because ironically it was located in china and not subject to the same forces until recently when transferred to these same people in the US.
AI from this same demographic does the same thing.

Then of course you can train it on books, most of which in the last few decades are airhead trendy commentary and views by leftists because publishing a novel became trendy amongst that demographic.
Engineering used to be one of the most educated right wing fields, but now its significantly imported Indians and Chinese.

>>107845213
This is easy to explain - here you have companies desperate to get software changes out, and not enough staff because hiring more staff would cut into profit levels.
Sure, they would get the software completed - but the company isn't in the business of completing software - it's in the business of making profit.

Come along a code-spewing technology that allows their current staff to go from completing 1 or 2 tickets a day - to 10.

Massive. What do companies do? There's obviously fat to cut now, more profit to make by eliminating 10% of the programming staff.

Do they hire new staff? No. Typically it was 1 new programmer every 5 years, turnover was 1 every 2 or 3 years.

Now staff are completing their jobs faster, there's less stress, more satisfaction, company has more profit. Things are good for existing employees.

For those employees cut - bad news. For new programmers entering the market - very bad news.

As for an AI replacing people totally - probably won't happen, there will always be a person there to handle the code checks and ensure it's delivering code that is quality.
