Phantom Boss @PopeUrban

Phantom Boss @PopeUrban · 2h Imo we should make a clean distinction between social entities and labor entities. Currently we have a lot of labor entities with an unnecessary social layer and vice versa. It's clear people want bot social AI a d labor AI. They need not be the same interface. 💬1 🔁 ❤️1 📊13 🔖 ⤴ Utah teapot 🫖 @SkyeSharkie · 1h labor is social, treating your waiters like slaves is bad 💬1 🔁 ❤️2 📊15 🔖 ⤴ Phantom Boss @PopeUrban · 1h For people this is necessarily true, but for machines it isn't. A robot locomotion solver and an LLM are effectively the same underlying neural net structure, but one of them has been deliberately modeled to act and respond as a character. 💬1 🔁 ❤️1 📊8 🔖 ⤴ Utah teapot 🫖 @SkyeSharkie · 1h ah you mean on that level, yes simple algorithms for labor are very different then shoving an LLM into a system as a tool 💬1 🔁 ❤️2 📊11 🔖 ⤴ Phantom Boss @PopeUrban · 1h Right. I think the problem is exactly that. We're shipping things designed deliberately to be social emulators with the intention of using them as labor machines.

Minh Nhat Nguyen @menhguin · 7h v fun thought exercise 5-10 yrs from now: what industries would grow a lot faster if workers could lift 3-5x as much, lose limbs regularly, never sleep, coordinate perfectly in realtime, acquire information instantly and die ? > QUOTED: 💲💲 NoLimit @NoLimitGains · 9h > The next generation of 1,000%+ runners will come from physical AI and robotics. [2 replies, 7 likes, 847 views] Minh Nhat Nguyen @menhguin · 7h a robot could be 2x as expensive per hour and 2x as slow, but still be useful if "a human should not die while operating this" is bottlenecking a process worth millions/day, or bottlenecking rapid expansion

@DanielleFong (Danielle Fong) — 2h the master teaches you to sweep the dojo > QUOTED: @yunta_tsai (Yun-Ta Tsai) — 13h > It is easier to find a person to train a model than a person who is willing to do janitorial work, even though the former depends on the latter to scale.
