Gotcha, so training is still by a large a human-driven process?

Thanks for the explanation, much appreciated!

I hear this cited a lot, but isn’t that exactly what a motivated human brain with internet connection is?

There’s still an X factor intelligence alone can’t implement to generate discovery.

2002 was still dial-up internet for many, though broadband was on the scene. The internet was scattered, knowledge and communities were based around n specific domain name forums and video media was not the norm. Ads weren’t nearly as targeted. Technology was still seen as “nerdy” by many youngsters at the time. MySpace was starting its rise.

2012– smartphones had hit critical mass, WiFi was starting to proliferate (as far as publicly and freely available) and I remember just a year or so before getting a kick out of streaming a music video on demand on my google g2 smartphone as I was riding in a car The internet had consolidated into the large names we have today, but it was still finding it’s footing.

Today— AI and VR are household names, though not household tools. We’ve realized by and large that maybe connecting everyone all the time was not a wise idea. Though some wish to go back to less techy time, those days are long gone and will never return.

I’d disagree. Technology and religion can move hand in hand and are not mutually exclusive (though not always the case). If anything, technology seeks to reveal and explain the mysteries of a higher intelligence.

Once again, depends on the missile and global conflict climate. During peacetime, it goes a while.

When we’re gifting them like fireworks on the 4th of July to Ukraine— very quickly. Also it’s not just the physical missile, but the procurement, supply, and assembly line workers that must all be paid.
