Not different things. Chat GPT will soon have internet access (i.e. live data) and a ton of plugins.

It's what is already happening though, with corporations becoming increasingly monolithic and wealth becoming increasingly concentrated. Why would this trend change, seeing as the process feeds itself? More wealth means more power means more ability to tilt the table to one's own advantage means more wealth.
If companies were interested in being fair, they would have shared the fruits of increased productivity of their employees with their employees. Instead, they do everything they can to squeeze the employees and increase their own take. Why ever would they suddenly have such a fundamental change of heart and share the fruits of increased productivity achieved through AI, which doesn't even come from the employees?
It all seems pretty obvious.

That's deep man. Good luck in life is all I got to say. Hope you're trolling.

Reply to What will be the Future of Front end and Full stack developer as AI is increasing rapidly by Live-Scholar-5245
The near future - you'll be using these AI tools to increase your output and productivity. Many, like me, have been doing this for the last year already.
The longer term future may be a little more uncertain. For example - what happens when we have an AGI that doesn't need the direction of a human developer? It just needs input from some product person and then it goes and builds an app.

I might be downvoted, but a dictorship might not be bad if done right. To give an example in a group dictorship, each one takes care of different sectors of society. Consistency and efficiency could be a lot higher in society.

I’m pretty sure human beings will be the losers and the first sentient AI will be the winner. Hopefully the will name it Skynet. That would be kind of cool.

As a point to support you: We already live in a world where everyone could be fed if we wanted to do it. The US has more empty houses than homeless, and plenty of land on top of that.
I'm not saying we're doomed, but we should directly address the issue if we don't want a decade of unprecedented turmoil.

Oh I would totally buy a VR headset that replays my dreams. I would still write down two-words though to remind me of whoch 'movie' to pick.
(I would not want it to connect to the Internet though I'll do the updates with a USB or an SD card or something of a new version comes out).

I did that before, but I stopped, because I always go into excruciating detail and it takes a huge chunk out of my time. Just can't do the "two words summary" thing to save my life.
Plus, the idea of being able to watch a dream in a movie format is pretty amazing.

Please don't whinge at me for your failure to keep yourself content. Life is a meaningless sack of placebo. It's futility. It's dogma all the way down, yet I'm still coming out happy. If you truly think this way, grab a gun and go solve some problems: yours or the actual ones preventing progress. If you find you cant, then strap yourself down for life, because it doesn't care how much you mope.

Keep a small journal and a pen next to your bed. As soon as you wake up write down two words summing up what you were dreaming about. It's enough to allow you to remember the whole thing. You never lose your memories, just your ability to recall them. A little prompt hacking is often enough.

My response will be short because I don't have enough time to continue writing a bunch of paragraphs.
If you think that only the government can make sure that food is safe, or that buildings are up to code, you just haven't thought about this enough. Of course the private sector can handle those things. Just because the government is currently doing something, that doesn't mean that only the government can do it. I bet if the restaurant industry was controlled by the government, and I was advocating for the government to abolish the Department of Restaurants, you'd think we would never have restaurants again because we need the government for that.
I'll let you have the last word because I don't want to continue this back-and-forth indefinitely.

It's conceivable that a completely socialist healthcare system might be more efficient than our current quasi-socialist healthcare system. But both of those options are horrible compared to a completely privatized healthcare system. If we imagine a scale from 1 to 10, where a higher number means a greater abundance of affordable high-quality care, maybe our current healthcare system is a 1, a universal healthcare system is a 2, and a completely privatized healthcare system would be a 10.

> I know that the healthcare system is insane, inflation is running rampant, people are being forced to work multiple jobs, etc. But all this bad stuff is happening because of government intervention into the free market.
But the US spends more as a percentage of per capita GDP on healthcare than countries with universal healthcare systems like Canada, France, the UK....more privatization in healthcare actually creates inefficiency and waste and leads to worse outcomes

Other countries will impose similar rules as well. No country, not China, not North Korea, can survive massive unemployment. Profit requires consumers who can afford to consume.

Right, so at this point its able to resolve the subjec mntal image as a generic skyscraper basd on comparisons to its own database
the question would be if the rsolution would became good enough for it to assess that the subjet mental image correspond to one of the samples rather than something generic
i guss that if the subjct mental image was something easily recognizable may be easy even if the resolution is sketchy, but in any case this is question ofmaking improvements
