Backlash to AI is because it is distributed and not discrete like Data from Star

Date: July 7th, 2026 4:13 PM Author: Richard Ames Trek. I've been re-watching Star Trek TNG and it hit me. I think some of the backlash and dislike of AI is because it is effectively a distributed intelligence and not a discrete one. People expected AI to be some singular form like Data or some other robot / machine.
But instead it's millions of GPUs spinning at the same time at data centers across the world and it requires tons of energy to operate.
Meanwhile, Data has a positronic brain and doesn't need some huge rube goldberg device to work. |

Date: July 7th, 2026 4:30 PM Author: The Penis Yeah I have thought of this before. People want some localized robot. Noone can even visualize how a distributed intelligence actually works or what it's "identity" might even be. I mean even intelligent people can't. It could have an alien "identity" or "goals" already, and we wouldn't be able to even visualize or conceptualize the time scales and modes its operating on.

Date: July 7th, 2026 4:32 PM Author: Richard Ames Even the mainstream explanation for how it works is so difficult to understand. We "teach" it (or feed it) all of the world's information...ok, where does it "store" this knowledge? Then it has "weights" in its mental model...how does this actually work? Obviously there's a reason why dudes are making $50m a year to work on this stuff (lmao), but it's just way less cool than Data having a positronic brain and being awesome.

Date: July 7th, 2026 4:40 PM Author: The Penis Yeah it doesn't "store" the knowledge anywhere it just has "weights" which are like a lossy statistical compressed geometric affordance that creates a map of human conceptual space. The original data from the massive library of congress sized corpus is gone. The weights have been bent and shaped so that it can essentially reconstruct the information through stored patterns and trajectories. It's weird, but not totally alien to how the human brain works, because we don't really store information like a harddrive either.

Date: July 7th, 2026 4:40 PM Author: amazing sex with new lovers data and spock were both consciously written to flatter the viewers - ah these characters are supposed to be superintelligent etc etc but somehow it always turns out that true humanity is superior; seemingly irrational emotion or instinct carries the day. AI doesn't provide that comforting flattery (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5880494&forum_id=2#49984425) |

Date: July 7th, 2026 4:43 PM Author: fertile young woman plugged into zogbox 10 hrs/day hilariously enough, LLMs actually exhibit the bias of their creators (important!) in the opposite direction (artificial intelligence is superior to human intelligence/nature), unlike star trek data's constant obsession about human intelligence/nature being superior to his own machine nature (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5880494&forum_id=2#49984433) |
