all of a sudden we need huge data-halls filled with “Rack scale” machines augmented with exotic GPUs and NPUs again with refrigerated liquid cooling, all to do the same task that we were doing previously without the magical buzzword that has been named AI; because we all need another dot com bubble or block chain band waggon to jump aboard. Our AI enabled searches take slightly longer, consume magnitudes more power, and best of all the results we are given may or may not be correct….
Progress, less precise answers, taking longer, consuming more power, without any verification and often giving a different result if you repeat your question AND we still need a personal computing device to access this wondrous thing.
Remind me again why we are here?
AI will be one of humanity’s most important inventions. That’s probably true. What we don’t know is if this is the moment we are inventing it. Or if today’s systems are yet more over-hyped technologies. But these are security conversations we are going to need to have eventually.
Aucune exagération sur la fin !
J'en suis à la version 0.3.0 de Posibrain (anciennement TchatBot, attention l'url à changé), une petite implémentation de tchat bot en PHP. Pour l'instant , je m'intéresse surtout à faciliter l'environnement de développement et de déploiement : installation, utilisation, debug, choix et créations de "knowledge databases" pour les "cerveaux" des robots.
Les lecteurs d'Isaac Asimov reconnaîtront peut-être le lien entre Posibrain et les robots positroniques ! Et ne s'étonneront pas que R. Sammy (le tchat bot par défaut) soit légèrement stupide. Créer un cerveau et une base de connaissances pour Daneel Olivaw va être un vrai challenge :-)
