thinking AI is doing your self checkouts and then finding out its just 1000 people in India watching the cameras 24/7 sounds like a good south park episode
-
What surprises me the most is the fact that Amazon was trying these "walk out" stores in the US where people already perfected this type of shopping.
-
I work in an aerospace MRO company and the marketing team is now labelling EVERYTHING a computer in our company does as “AI powered”… Literally techs that existed decades ago (FEA simulation, self-filling forms, automated tool management system, data analytics tool, etc) is now “AI powered” just because they r jumping on the trend. Management is now even encouraging engineers to consult chatgpt for our calculations… while i know for a fact it cant even convert some units correctly. This is ridiculous
-
Imagine buying an AI Sex Bot only to find out that it is just some guy back in India.
-
Let's not forget, Mark Cuban was 100% all-in on NFT's and defended $43 million Bored Ape prices.
-
"Full Self Driving" ...actually just some dude halfway around the world remotely turning your steering wheel.
-
AI has replaced between 60-100 people from the company I currently work for... And complaints from clients have increased..... Great informative video. Thanks 😊
-
I say an advert of either Twitter or Reddit yesterday by Samsung stating that their new vacuum cleaner, not an automated one like a Roomba but a handheld one, used AI. It's a handheld vacuum cleaner.
-
I worked for an accounting company from France that used hundreds of cheap laborer from Madagascar to manually input data from photos of actual bills people uploaded believing it’s OCR. Nowhere they mentioned it’s all done manually.
-
Wait, Amazon did something dishonest and unethical!? Gosh that's so out of character for them...
-
Cleaning toilets for a living might be the shittiest job I've ever had, but at least AI is unlikely to replace me.
-
In my country, there are literally freelancer jobs where you identify text in an image and put it in a document. I looked into the company paying for these freelancers and they market their service as 'AI-powered' image to text conversion.
-
Just wait until they find out that every Alexa actually has a tiny person in it.
-
When an industry focus on announcing eye-catching gimmicks rather than trying to solve the long-standing, fundamental problems(like instability and hallucination) of the technologies itself, you know this is a total scam.
-
In the 1970s and 1980s, it could have been said that computers would not replace accountants, bu accountants who use computers would replace those who do not.
-
I'm old enough to remember when Transputers, Robots, and Expert Systems were the tech darlings pre-public-internet.
-
The biggest sign we are in a bubble is experts saying we are not in the bubble.
-
My problem with AI is it is fundamental a statistical model based on large amounts of data. The key is the quality of the data initially used and used to update the model. It doesn't actually think in any real sense of the word. AI is very susceptible to "Garbage in, garbage out".
-
Sir I would like to point out a misconception in this video. In any given company 3 people in a group don't output 3 peoples worth of work. 1 person in the group produces 2.5 while one of the other two gets promoted for their hard work and manager skills.

I read that Nvidia develops tech for crypto mining services/blockchain transactions. Could the current crypto pump be attributed to Nvidia’s great earnings and should I hold some crypto as well, cos tbh I’m having FOMO with the current crypto price at 64k.
