🤖 Anthropic Exec Forces AI Chatbot on Gay Discord Community, Members Flee

404 Media

Users voted to restrict Anthropic’s Claude to its own channel, but Jason Clinton, Anthropic’s Deputy Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) and a moderator in the Discord, overrode them.

The word of the year might be Slop, but the theme of the year is companies forcing things on their users that they didn’t ask for and do not want.

🤖 Inside the Creation of Tilly Norwood, the AI Actress Freaking Out Hollywood

WSJ

Over the next six months, Van der Velden toiled with her 15-person team to nail down the look of her leading lady, creating 2,000 iterations of an actress unbound by the limits of physical ability, age or talent.
In recent weeks, she has signed about 60 nondisclosure agreements for hybrid movies (with real actors), full AI films and Tilly-specific projects, most of them in the $10 million to $50 million range.

This is so embarrassing. It took a 15-person team to “nail down the look”??? There are thousands (if not millions) of individual artists who can draw a

🤖 AGI is not possible even in 10 years

Medium

LeCun thinks we need completely different approaches, including what he calls “world models,” before we can talk seriously about AGI. His timeline? At least a decade, probably much longer.

I’m obviously no expert, but I’ve been saying this for years. LLM’s are not a path to AGI or any sort of intelligence. They are fancy algorithms with random outputs. They don’t think or understand—they ingest and compute.

🤖 Coke's New AI-Generated Ad Required 100 Staff and 70,000 AI-Generated Clips, and It Still Looks Like Garbage

Futurism

Coca-Cola is back with another series of AI-generated ads to herald the holidays — and they look just as bad as they did last year.

What an expensive and ugly ad. People keep saying “ThIs iS ThE WoRsT AI WiLl EvEr bE,” and sure, but also, it’s absolutely terrible and pointless. Why would you ever want to take the time to make something this bad and put your name on it???

🤖 OpenAI needs to raise at least $207bn by 2030 so it can continue to lose money, HSBC estimates

FT

Based on a total cumulative deal value of up to $1.8tn, OpenAI is heading for a data centre rental bill of about $620bn a year — though only a third of the contracted power is expected to be online by the end of this decade.

The charts on this article are wild. I believe they’ve raised over $60 billion so far, so over the next five years they will 4x that—just to continue to lose money. And that’s assuming they double their paying user base. Obviously the intent for these companies is to find ways to

🤖 San Francisco’s youngest billionaires are betting on a new kind of job boom

SF Standard

When I pressed Foody on his utopian vision, and why he thinks tech companies won’t hoard the spoils of the AI boom, he waved his hand and described a future in which everyone has $10 million in purchasing power, lives in a nice apartment, and works only if they want to.

Oh yeah, because every 22-year-old has vast experience of what it’s like at the workplace for all types of jobs across the country. Problem solved, everyone, you can now work when you want and buy anything you want! It’s getting ridiculous.
