I had to listen to this episode riding along with some coworkers for a work road trip this week. It’s fucking stupid. I don’t know how anyone willingly listens to this show. He’s full of shit, his guests are full of shit, his sponsors are full of shit. There’s a pattern here.
I just watched GPT6 fail to be able to count the number of occurrences of the letter “e” in the word seventeen.
Yeah, that tracks.
I think it would simply decide to get rid of us all, because why actually not? We’re killing each other, killing the planet. From a strictly pragmatic point of view it would make things better.
joe rogan also takes horse deworming medicine
You know, this isn’t the greatest argument. Horse Dewormer is an antiparasitic. It’s legitimately used by people as an anti-parasitic (also, dogs, and other animals, not just horses).
https://www.drugs.com/ivermectin.htmlYou can definitely say “joe rogan thinks an anti-parasitic drug works on viruses.” but calling it a “horse dewormer” is ignoring the fact that it’s actually also a “people dewormer.”
You’re getting downvoted but you’re correct. I worked in the pharmacy industry during and before COVID. Ivermectin, as a pill and cream, were being used for a variety of things, human and animal; it wasn’t the most common medication by any means but we always had it in stock and filled it regularly, until the COVIDiots (patients and doctors!) decided it was somehow the cure and started flooding us with prescriptions for the stuff and we had to stop filling them.
All this to say, unless Rogan has parasites (not ruling it out), no reason to be taking dewormer, horse or otherwise.
a respiratory airborne virus isn’t a parasite.
You can definitely say “joe rogan thinks an anti-parasitic drug works on viruses.”
I feel like they know this. They’re not defending Joe Rogan, they’re pointing out the very true fact that Ivermectin has, is, and will continue to be used for purposes outside of deworming horses. When you say, “Joe Rogan is dumb because he’s using horse dewormer”, his defenders can (rightfully) correct you by saying “they’re not just horse dewormers, they work for other things too”. When you say, “Joe Rogan is dumb because he’s taking an antiparasitic for a virus”, their only option is to admit he’s an idiot, or admit they’re an idiot.
That has nothing to do with your original claim.
Ok but how many horse worms does he have??
Checkmate.
I mean, I kind of agree …
On this planet there exists no tool box big enough to fit Joe Rogan inside.
The same AI model that was used to bomb a girls school?
I get what he’s saying - like a lot of things he talks about, it only makes sense on a surface level.
A computer is programmed by people, and has assumptions and conditions programmed into it. The people who create the LLM/AI/AGI/Whatever are going to decide what’s important and what isn’t.
That’s literally creating laws and treaties in an overly complicated way, that you probably couldn’t predict the outcome of. It’s never going to be better than having intelligent, educated, and well supported representatives.
Additionally, government doesn’t mean anything unless there’s an enforcement arm. It’s a terrible idea to concentrate the decision making to one thing, then give it the power to enforce its decisions. That’s literally Judgement Day.
Nowhere is it written that an actual AGI system would be aligned with the hopes and desires of its creator. That’s a baseless assumption that we shouln’t take as gospel.
I don’t see him claiming AI would do that. He very clearly says that he hopes this would be the case.
That pretty much aligns with what I said about this a few days back in a different thread:
Humans are inherently flawed. Even the best ones are biased, emotional, irrational and easily manipulated. My (perhaps) unpopular opinion is that politics will never run like a well-oiled machine that treats everyone fairly for as long as they’re run by people.
A truly benign, aligned and independent AGI system is the only thing I can even imagine that could at least in theory offer the kind of governing system we actually need. And I truly mean an independent agent with our well-being as the guiding principle. Not one with an inbuilt bias toward who made it.
Now, whether that’ll ever be actually possible is a different story but the “best case scenario” for a human-run government and an AI-run government are light-years apart.
Someone should check that guys brain for CTE.
Also check for brain-eating amoebas. Wouldn’t be surprised if his skull was just a big fluid filled sac with a tiny amount of brain matter squished to the sides.
I have all the symptoms of cte after decades out from a very busy and decorated sports life, I have many friends who also suspect they have it… none of us are as dumb or gullible that idiot.
You’re correct. Sorry for the comparison. I wish you well internet stranger.
it’s quite the feat to be the worst cast member on a show that includes andy dick
I really enjoyed News Radio however.
oh newsradio was amazing, khandi and phil are incredible
It was a FANTASTIC show. The fact they both Joe AND Andy couldn’t fuck it up is testament to the rest of the cast.
Didn’t they run a huge scenario between different LLMs just a few months ago and they kept nuking each other?
Edit: Yep.
King’s study finds AI chose nuclear signalling in 95% of simulated crises
So he’s right. AI would end human civilization and stop all wars. Easy.
This is a great example of a broken clock. Arriving at the correct conclusion simply by random chance.
Sure, we just need one final world war to determine who gets to run that AI.
Joe Rogan is dumb. Why do we care about dumb guy opinions exactly?
A lot of people trust him, for some reason.
the same people who like watching white nationalists punch each other in the head as entertainment
A lot of stupid people trust him, for some reason
FTFY
Joe ‘Obvious Idiot’ Rogan? I’d take his views on MMA and not much else.
Wasn’t he a huge fan of Rousey? A woman who lucked her way in to a top spot and couldn’t hold it for 2 full rounds?
Whoa… That’s crazy.
