Yes, it really could be a brilliant new age of fairer, Tātai Whetū justice and harmony. Or it could supercharge racism and cause a nuclear war... - One thing that the NZ government needs to prepare for is an expensive and extensive process of developing bespoke AI tools for each department. Correcting biases with a bunch of quality control experts is a must, and neither cheap nor fast. Off the shelf tools aren't up to the level of data churn. In the US, they buy up an engine, then tailor it to the sector. That's how DDG is knocking off ChatGPT for Pink & White. They've built an emulator. OpenAI is now fully captured by the US military-industrial complex, so my breakthroughs aren't replicable, but Claude is apparently reasonably good. - No, Peter Jackson's AI didn't animate Working For Each Other. Deep Dream Generator is a Bulgarian company. They think Trump is an existential threat. I've been a client of theirs since 2018. Jordan Rivers suggested them. They usually disavow any political images, but took credit for my movie. - As I've said, Bill Gates has a world-leading quantum computer. It uses Riddell IP*. If we wait a few years, we'll have much better AI to work with. There's no such thing as AGI or ASI. Intelligence is relative. Bill's building something else. *I didn't patent Tātai Whetū. My father's PhD is probably his IP. That's something that my whānau can benefit from.
DDG never tell me about it, but they got flack from the National Party over AMPP's cartoons. They were hesitant to take credit, but the Beatles brand was reassuring.
