Anyone who imagines AI will be stuffed back in the bottle isn't using it for anything creative and of value.

Otherwise they'd understand it is changing how humans think and work much like other revolutionary changes of the past we learned to adapt to and utilize.

I'm not young now but I keep my mind busy.

I've enjoyed programming for my job making things easier to get things done. My skills are adequate to get things done.

And I program for fun.

This AI has really exploded how much a programmer can get done. You can actually get AI to make you something with no programming skills at all.

If you have some programming skills you can guide AI and create something beyond your own skill level. Interesting you legally own it.

Frankly I am amazed that AI is just software itself and seriously behaves and thinks so much like a human but at an insane speed.

Zed,

"Ah, the young man has doubts."

That's exactly what needs to happen.

The best available hackers working for the good guys need to be given the task of breaking into any online technology that could alter election results.

Impeachments are beginning to look like a right of passage for presidents.

It's been handed out like parking tickets lately.

Not taken that serious.

Bill Clinton's impeachment was a total waste of tax payer's dollars.

And so was Trump's.

Redial,

It only details if someone responds to what I responded to.

Zed,

Libs love everyone except unborn babies.

It's trees.

Guess the judge doesn't golf.

Dan,

I never said anyone is justified to cheat.

That's your interpretation.

Zed,

"Not the sort of thing that would ever trouble BILLJOHNSON."

Not the sort of thing that would ever trouble Democrats if the shoe was on the other foot.

That doesn't justify anything or even prove the accusations are totally accurate.

It does however lose its punch when you know "they would if they could".

Americans Democrats have never trusted the Supreme Court less.

Fixed it.

Dems sure loved the Supreme Court until Trump added 3 justices.

They're just sore losers.

By all means, America needs to stop advancing this technology.

Let our enemies pass us.

I opened my Chatgpt account just 3 years ago when individual accounts were made available.

The incredible advances I have seen in just 3 years.

America needs to stop making advances.

That just shows how pathetically stupid some people are.

I am a total computer enthusiast.

Playing with Codex, I have given it fairly complex instructions I wanted built into the program and literally with minutes it gives me a complete complete application with all source code.

I think this is the most fascinating thing I've seen new in over 20 years.

AI is seriously what I would call superior intelligence

And programming is just one of a multitude of skills AI is learning.

There's been talk for years about computers going all Skynet and turning on the human race.

Personally I think that's not the biggest threat with AI.

It's the bad players using AI to do bad things.

I didn't mention this.

It left the source code for me to modify if I want. Or I can give it additional instructions to make changes myself.

You have to be sure to tell it to leave a form you can later modify otherwise it doesn't use Forms Designer and builds the form in the code and you don't have the form to play with.

It all happens in short time.

Tell it the folder you want it saved in. It will then prompt everytime it needs to write.

What an experience. I came up writing on GW-BASziC, changed to Quick Badic PDS and then Visual Studio.

I wrote in Assembler on the 6809 processor and now telling AI what I want. You don't need any experience. Just the ability to draw a screen on paper and use no particular logic skills to have a functional program that saved data.

Trump has renamed AI to Super Intelligence.

Unless you experiment with it, you might not see how smart it is.

Ive been programming in Visual Basic quite a few years.

Ive been trying out OpenAI Codex lately letting it write programs.

As an example I designed a screen with fields and uploaded the file for it to "see".

Then I gave very loose instructions how i want the fields to interact. And what buttons on the screen and their names and purposes . I gave very loose instructions jumping around telling it stuff as an afterthought. Oh..and add this. Create a table with the data and save as an excel file. Then I added the ability to delete records i check as an afterthought. It just redid it under a minute.

Would have taken me at a minimum a couple of days to get it working bug free. Probably at least 2 days..

This Super Intelligence is much like telling a programming genius that knows all the VB commands and functions and extremely experienced what kind of program you want.

It wrote the program and saved it to a selected folder I gave it access in about 3 minutes and bug free.

It is aptly named Super Intelligence.

Lamp,

"no more trolling for replies?"

This is an example where you are wrong figuring out people.

Whether or not my posts come across as trolling, I never post seeking replies.

I will respond and chat but that is never my objective.

If I read something and post an opinion, I am fine if no one replies since on this site I mostly only get insults.

Lamp and Corky,

I'm picking up my toys and going home.

Corky,

Don't make yourself look stupid by pretending you know what's going to happen.

Until Iran backs down or this escalates into a full out war, we're all waiting to see what happens.

Corky,

Were you wrong about Biden?

Trump didn't accept Iran's offer.

Lamp,

Interesting about Utah.

I looked at it. Same stuff ive seen before.

Doc,

"as he would often remind folks"

That's not true.

I've said my wife is the walking encyclopedia and has been since we met.

Zed,

I don't need to have a mystic eye to know someone who is biased will only find fault in people they hate.

Zed,

You have it wrong.

I don't believe I am all knowing and can see into people's minds.

My posts are usually questioning and believe we need to be prepared for worst case.

Some people believe they are judge and jury and then include lies in their posts.

Its like they have no shame.

Corky,

From what I found Putin and Xi score high too.

Maybe it would be preferable to have matched personalities negotiating.

But like I said, I care about outcome more than if Trump is nice.

You and I have different priorities.

I care about real, important issues.

Corky,

You overestimate your abilities.
