Quantum AGI still sounds insane to most people. so did coding agents not that long ago.

@cremieuxrecueil its not about reason, its about the quality of their souls. the ones dunking on it exposed themselves.
English
yes, quite right but i am more worried about an underlying permament corruption of the human soul that has given us individuals who would gladly wish for good things not to happen as long as they can retain their power or privileges. the world is deeply divided now also in terms of two or more movies on one screen.

The Midjourney Scanner and Snap Glasses have revealed people in the tech world who have no vision.
My timeline this week has been filled with people complaining about the Midjourney Scanner and the Snap AR Glasses, not because of what they are capable of but because these projects are in their infancy.
Sure the Snap Glasses are huge, and fold the ear-lobe. But you know what else folded earlobes? The very first cellular phones. They were massive.
The amount of computational power in an average cell phone nowadays is beyond anything that could have been imagined back in the eighties. These AR glasses are just in the first generation of design with todays technology. Eventually you won't be able to tell the difference between AR glasses and standard prescription glasses.
The same is true for medical innovation. MRI Scanners would have seemed absurd back in 1960s. But now they are vital. And they are insanely expensive, and incredibly slow.
The Midjourney Scanner wants to innovate early treatment by creating a fast and easy process for people to get health scans. It might sound like science fiction, but I am certain at one time organ transplants sounded like science fiction as well.
All of that to say that you need to pay attention to the people on your timeline who lack vision and complain at the first sight of first generation technologies. History has long shown these people will be forgotten about. The same horse farmers who complained about automobiles are out of business. The scribes who complained about The Printing Press are out of business.
As the world moves on, technology always innovates forwards. It never remains stagnant. It becomes better over time. Technology gets smarter, faster and smaller.
Keep a record of the naysayers. Notice what technologies they are heavily invested in and you will see their complaints are not rooted in reason and technical knowledge of what is and is not science fiction. Nearly 100% of the time it is because their business is dependent on keeping things the same because they lack the foresight and courage to change things.

Every cultural singularity begins by collapsing under the weight of a gatekeeper's conventional thinking.
I recently came across a video clip of Demis Hassabis' lectures. For a long time, he couldn't even raise a few $100k to start DeepMind. Just a few 100 thousand dollars.
J.K. Rowling was rejected by almost every publisher she submitted her manuscript to.
Einstein was rejected from nearly every academic position before he published his work on relativity.
When I observe people who have fundamentally changed the world's trajectory, I notice a pattern: the convictions that were perfectly clear to them seemed completely ridiculous to anyone unable to step outside the norm.
Most people require consensus to move forward. Genuine outliers often have to face a period of quiet struggle before their ideas explode, pushing the world in a direction no one (but them) could have predicted .

this may not be it, but it seems increasingly clear we will soon solve health. people will just not be sick anymore. what does that world even look like

GPT-5.5 Instant is now on par with our frontier Thinking models for health-related questions. Every week, more than 230 million people turn to ChatGPT with health and wellness questions, and GPT-5.5 Instant is better at recognizing when urgent care may be needed, asking for relevant context, explaining uncertainty, and making complex information easier to understand. Because GPT-5.5 Instant is available to all free users in ChatGPT, these improvements can help more people. Physician-led evaluation was critical to making these major intelligence gains.

legit question, we need to turn that energy in2 infrastructure. If wallets are weak, map them. If liquidity fragile, define a public liquidity policy. If snipers are the issue, stop rewarding extraction. If culture is the goal, build transparent html viewsource. Only turning this project into the very best, worth it of lore and attention it wins. html
English
not at all...models are currently so good. I haven't found anything they are not able to do. People have to realize that hard stuff won't just magically appear. models or not. If you approach the problems correctly with current models anything can get done. Don't think people can actually see the improvements any more.

Would you be disappointed by OpenAI if GPT 5.6 is an incremental update of 5.5, but is largely more cost-efficient?

Wtf, zoomers ftw
As a millennial, Millennials are in fact the worst
Dwayne@CtrlAltDwayne
@venturetwins What's funny about this? Zoomers are by far the worst generation in decades.

@iandcosmos apple watch, lol. This take reveals an inner scan of you and its not so great but hey, lets wait and see.
English
I think there is overhype about this.
For the short to mid term, the realistic take is that it is a non-medical device, similar to the Apple Watch or other health trackers that provide some health information with limited medical use (rarely found useful by doctors).
There are huge technical and medical difficulties in incorporating it into real medical practice.
In the long term, things might change. Widespread use by asymptomatic people (like a screening program) could accumulate valuable data, which might lead to interesting new and unforeseen medical uses.

my hope is that blood tests and body scanners get so fucking affordable we eliminate 90% of diseases before they happen
thats what AI should do

yes this is better kind of scepticism. A fair point although i still sense some kind of weird vibe, lol. Its much better than what we are seeing from other types. I believe this is the beginning of something incredible and we should all be cheering and celebrating. Nothing wrong with this kind of hype, so maybe you can ask yourself why it bothers you
English
Much more grounded discussion of the new Midjourney body scanner that was released like it was the trailer of a movie. Cool tech with potential. Insane premature hype.

Team Algae is a great name for the unemployed professional agitprop crowd
Retard Finder@IfindRetards
Holy shit. There is a pro algae protest happening at the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool. Yes, a pro ALGAE protest. This is the final boss of retards. Unbelievable

@operationdanish well done. why would one choose to be pessimistic on something like this? thanks for being on the good side.
English
Easy for a bunch of doctors to hate on this but they’d probably say the same thing about MRIs back in the day.
Yes, the quality of the images are not great and this technology has a ton of obvious limitations, especially since we haven’t seen any research data on performance, BUT…
It’s time to be optimistic. I can’t wait to try this.

Earfolds will be the new status symbol.
If you can't afford glasses heavy enough to fold your ears, you're never getting a seat on the yacht

Almost feels like he’s trolling us at this point. No operating income a decade after going public. Has treated $SNAP like an ATM. He’s a smart person. I don’t believe that he actually thinks these will sell at meaningful scale for $2200 each. So… are we being punked?

A lot of chatter about not trusting Midjourney but I think they are a decent company who have raised their own funds without VC. I see a lot of good coming from this. I see good intentions
