That’s probably exclusively American term. I couldn’t ever imagine calling a tradesman an “unskilled” labourer. You’ll get a quick nosejob that way.

Alex O’connor talks a ton about religion. I personally skip those episodes but I love the others so I assume these are as good as long as you find the topic interesting which I don’t.

I assume everyone is good untill they give me a reason to think otherwise. However, for me to know that someone truly is a good person takes years of knowing and interacting with them.

I hear a lot of people worrying about this being the case in the future but I don’t remember hearing anyone claiming that about our current LLMs.

Population decline is going to be a massive problem in the not too far future yet hardly anyone is talking about it.

LLMs are AI - always have been. The term “artificial intelligence” has always been broad in computer science: it covers anything that performs a cognitive task normally requiring human intelligence. A chess engine from 1999 is AI. A spam filter is AI. An LLM is AI. Narrow AI, sure, but still AI.

The confusion comes from people equating “AI” with sci-fi AGI (human-level general intelligence, HAL/JARVIS/Skynet/etc.). That’s a specific subset, not the whole category. When companies say “AI-powered” they’re not claiming AGI - they’re saying the product uses machine learning or pattern recognition in some way. Marketing inflates the language, yes, but the underlying tech is real and fits the definition.

If/when we reach actual AGI, it will be a civilization-level shift - far beyond today’s spell-checker-that-sometimes-hallucinates. People will look back and say “we had AI for years,” but they’ll mean narrow tools, not the thing that can invent new science or run a company autonomously. The goalposts aren’t moving; the hype is just using the broad term loosely.

“Don’t recommend this channel” feature exists and works.

Even broke the warranty seal over the USB port.

they imply that anti-depressants aren’t useful

The title says they’re just as effective as excercise. The only way to intrepret this as saying medication isn’t useful is if you think excercise isn’t useful either.
