  • Artificial Intelligence

    What are people’s thoughts on where we currently are with AI and where we are heading with it?

    I’ve used ChatGPT a fair bit over the last few months and it has been very handy for certain tasks that I’d not really relished doing.

    It’s alarming some people though to the point of it’s progression being requested to slow or pause for a while.



    I watched this Tom Scott video a while back and his concerns resonated with me.

      Google and Amazon smart speakers are AI of a kind ?

      They really piss me off

        I'm sure they're genuine concerns, but it does make it sound like a sci-fi plot from the 1950s.

        AI football managers in a few years time?

          Re: Artificial Intelligence

          Lots of people will lose jobs as they become less efficient and obsolete compared to what replaces them.

          Which is nothing new. Farmhands sowed fields with tools and by hand before being replaced by cattle pulling heavy machinery which was in turn replaced with tractors pulling machines stuffed with electronics and computers to sow fields at the maximum efficiency.

          How many people and how many hours did it take to build a car in a factory in 1923 compared to 2023?

          There is a difference this time potentially. Previously improvements in technology would tend to take jobs away from the working class. With AI, I think it’ll disproportionately affect higher income white collar professions. Bankers, analysts, coders, marketing, etc.

          With AI, in theory, it’s a lot easier to replace people who sit at a desk and spend 8 hours at a computer compared to bar staff, cleaners, shopkeepers, bin men, cabbies, builders, etc.

            What is ChatGPT? I can’t see an app? I’m probably missing the point.

              you could replace the whole of parliament with AI and can get the job done a lot quicker.

                    Sludge will reply to this thread and prove AI probably isn't such a bad idea.

                    Organ Morgan will then contribute and confirm it.

                      try it out


                      I just asked it to write a song about Peter whittingham in the style of chas and dave, here are the results


                      (Verse 1)
                      Oh, gather 'round, all you football fans,
                      I'll tell you 'bout a legend, a true hero of the stands,
                      His name was Peter Whittingham, a maestro on the pitch,
                      With his skills and his passion, he made the crowd bewitch.

                      (Chorus)
                      Peter Whittingham, the midfield maestro,
                      With his boots and his magic, he'd make the ball go,
                      Oh, Peter Whittingham, a legend through and through,
                      He played the game with heart, the fans all loved him too.

                      (Verse 2)
                      From Aston Villa to the Bluebirds he'd go,
                      He'd dance on the grass, putting on a show,
                      With his left foot like a wand, he'd spray the perfect pass,
                      Creating chances, scoring goals, bringing joy to the mass.

                      (Chorus)
                      Peter Whittingham, the midfield maestro,
                      With his boots and his magic, he'd make the ball go,
                      Oh, Peter Whittingham, a legend through and through,
                      He played the game with heart, the fans all loved him too.

                      (Bridge)
                      In the middle of the park, he'd orchestrate the game,
                      His vision and his composure, brought him fame,
                      With a smile on his face and a twinkle in his eye,
                      He'd light up the stadium, reaching for the sky.

                      (Verse 3)
                      He left us too soon, a tragedy so sad,
                      But his memory lives on, making us all glad,
                      Peter Whittingham, forever in our hearts,
                      A true footballing genius, his legacy never departs.

                      (Chorus)
                      Peter Whittingham, the midfield maestro,
                      With his boots and his magic, he'd make the ball go,
                      Oh, Peter Whittingham, a legend through and through,
                      He played the game with heart, the fans all loved him too.

                      (Outro)
                      So raise a glass, let's toast to this footballing gem,
                      Peter Whittingham, we'll never forget him,
                      In our songs and our memories, he'll always be alive,
                      Forever cherished, a true hero of the blue and white.

                      ok just a silly example, but prei impressive I thought

                      more and more and higher value jobs are going to be made obsolete by AI eventually, humanity needs to find a way to manage this without leaving people behind

                          I personally think that we are at one of those game changing junctions in time.

                          You are old enough to remember becoming aware of the internet…possibly not giving a fcuk about it.

                          There is serious talk for example that AI could make people immortal by the end of this decade.

                          I’d still like to see hover boards from Back To The Future.

                            This took literally around two seconds.
                            Not exactly Alfred Lord Tennyson...But it probably could do it in his style

                            Write a poem about "Premier League Plastic Supporters" and Quote Sludge Factory from CCMB.co.uk


                            Premier League Plastic Supporters, they cheer and they shout
                            But do they truly love the game or is it just a clout?
                            They flaunt their team's colours, but do they know their lore?
                            Or are they just following trends, a fad to explore?

                            The stadiums are packed, the atmosphere is tense
                            But are these fans loyal or just there for the pretence?
                            They cheer for goals and victories, but do they know the pain
                            Of supporting through losses and seasons of no gain?

                            Sludge Factory from CCMB.co.uk spoke true
                            When he said, "plastic fans, you know who you are, shame on you."
                            For true fans are not just there for the highs
                            But also for the lows, the struggles, and the tries.

                            So if you're a Premier League Plastic Supporter, hear this plea
                            Don't just follow the trends, love the game for what it should be
                            It's not just about winning, it's about the love for the team
                            And the journey that comes with it, the joy and the dream.
