The near future of Ai is scamming people on the phone, penetrating ads even more into every aspect of life, and polarizarion of opinions taken to the extreme through social media.
But we already had all of that without AI :D
Another aspect where it really just doesn't change much...

I wish this was wrong, but it's only wrong in that it's not the future, its already actively happening.

But we already had all of that without AI :D

No, we didn't. Or not to the degree of your voice cloned grandmother calling you asking for money. What a generational improvement over the thick accented foreign call center... "Grandma" even accepts bitcoin now!

Nvidia is only the 4th most valued company today.
The most valued company is Chipotle Mexican Grill, an international chain of fast casual restaurants specializing in bowls, tacos, and Mission burritos made to order in front of the customer.
It looks like Mexican cuisine is a bigger hype than AI.


P.S. but suddenly It got delisted? Current value is $89.19 B, so Nvidia is in 3th position.

How is 89.19B anywhere near 3.34T?

True, but then again, fools and money were always being parted throughout history, so again I ask, what's new here. Look at crypto - some people just love to live life on the edge, you don't even need criminals, just invent a new paradigm and make believe. If grandma is asking for bitcoin by phone and the ICO doesn't drop... yeah.

Guarding yourself against threats is always a moving target. I don't see the difference here. New counter move: only give each other cash. Great way to preserve the availability of cash too. Two birds, one stone.

Yeah where is our cut! I say we get the pitchforks out and march on Huang's house.

Its easier for non-fools to fall for it now.

Lol no. Nearly everyone here is against the way AI is going.

All our gaming GPUs are a drop in the ocean. Nvidia has had workstation and server customers doing GPGPU stuff long before the AI and crypto crazes.

Aren't the majority Nvidia card users? That's how I meant contributed. Though to be fair, is an AMD GPU really an option.

Agree though, ai is bollocks apart from maybe certain engineering or design stuff.

Right, and the problem isn't just "what if I fall for a scam?" The problem is systemic; we're creating a low trust society suffused with paranoia. You can be made quite miserable in an environment swirling with spam and scams without ever actually being directly scammed. Granted, that process was already well under way before AI became the latest craze, but the new tech promises almost limitless added chaos. As R-T-B suggested, we may transition from simple distrust of strangers to an almost reflexive distrust of our own senses.

Somehow I just don't think the efficiency gains from AI will offset the problems caused by it. But Pandora's Box is open, and mega-corps are all in on the hype train, so there's nothing we can do but strap in for the ride.
