This feels like its saying “outsource your critical thinking and agency to us, and don’t worry about it”?
His vision sounds like “let us listen to, and see every task you do, so that we can command the world centrally from my business”
Zuckerberg predicted that personal AI systems that deeply understand users’ goals will become increasingly important, with devices like smart glasses becoming primary computing tools because they can understand context by seeing and hearing what users experience.
Google Glasses 2.0 but with even more privacy concerns, literally a horrible idea. He’s just hype cycling his unpopular glasses.
Feels like it’s saying “Hey you stupid fucking investors who will believe anything, why don’t you give me another hundred billion dollars for these magic beans?”
These magic beans will not only grow twice as fast, they’ll also fix the last magic beans that didn’t grow.
they make money by being digital pimps for snake oil products. lower the critical thinking of peasants, higher the chances of them getting fooled by targeted ads of scams and fake garbage.
try searching for any chronic illness on chrome or talk about it on whatsapp and you will be getting ads for miracle cures for months.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHHAHAAA
It means whatever the shareholders wanna hear, because they slobber each others knob for literally fucking anything, that sounds like it’ll make money from a pump and dump
I have a hard time coming up with any technology past the year 2000 that has improved my life in any way. I have my doubts.
Torrents are pretty nice. I also enjoy the newer lines of flat-screens, particularly when I want to move a monitor without throwing out my back.
It’s nice to always have a flashlight on your person.
Blue LEDs are recent and pretty cool.
I fucking hate blue leds. They cause migraines, and even when not - irritate the hell out of my eyes.
mRNA vaccine technology that made the two most effective COVID vaccines saving millions of lives was pretty great.
Also radically improved my cell phone reception.
SD cards?
Huge USB thumb drives?

Just seeing that is making my life better. :)
I mean they’re convenient but not exactly life changing. 20 years ago you were reading about these batteries that last forever or that dental decay was a thing of the past and it seems like we have made little progress, or progress was made and then rescinded for profit.
You would sure be hard-pressed to think of any good thing involving Mark Zuckerberg, alright.
I’ve become a bit of a fan of memory foam.
I think that’s fairly old but maybe there’s some new advancements.
Probably still less than 2000 years old, though.
Playing games in VR everyday is good if you want an easy excuse to exercise and move your body more.
I get plenty of that at work but I suppose most people don’t. I feel like the Nintendo Wii got more people moving than VR though.
Isn’t it “any algorithm that would impress Dilbert’s Boss”? In the vein of “I don’t have to be faster than the bear… I just have to be faster than you”… /s
Sniffing his own farts again I see
Isn’t/wasn’t he a programmer? He can’t possibly believe what he is saying.
He was a psychology major that made a website with PHP. His background in CS is taking a few classes before dropping out.
At least use Wikipedia before talking nonsense.
Zuckerberg learned computer programming in his childhood. At about the age of eleven, he created “ZuckNet”, a program that allowed computers at the family home and his father’s dental office to communicate with each other.[10] During Zuckerberg’s high-school years, he worked to build a music player called the Synapse Media Player. The device used machine learning to learn the user’s listening habits, which was posted to Slashdot[11] and received a rating of 3 out of 5 from PC Magazine.[12]

Oh, so then he did already establish what superintelligence is.
(I miss original Pandora)
okay. his background in CS remains a couple of classes before dropping out. i graduated from college around when he would have and this was every fucking CS major their freshman year. he talks about programming the same way every revolutionary code messiah who had coded some mildly impressive utilities does before they spend time studying the theory behind computation and learn what the real limitations of these things are. but VCs love the code messiahs. hence SVB going bankrupt. none of these dudes are as smart as they’ve convinced the rest of the world they are
Zuck hasn’t touched code in decades. He’s far too busy cheating on his wife at the Jeff Bezos / Elon Musk Underaged Orgy Tent for that nonsense.
I know some really damn delusional programmers.
I once saw a supervisor use Google sheets to do a simple calculation. Could have opened the windows calculator, could have typed it into Google, could have done lots of things. But no, they created a new Google Sheet, performed one arithmetic equation, and then closed the browser.
I was so amused by this that I decided to program a 10-key calculator complete with memory recall in Google Sheets using Google Apps Script. I’ve made some wild Sheets over the years and have abused spreadsheets into things they’re not, but that’s my favorite, most useless Sheet ever. Whenever I show it to people, their first reaction is, “yeah, that’s a calculator, that’s a pretty simple tool.” But then when they realize that I wrote actual code to assign values to add then clear checkboxes and then store all these values, they look at me with genuine concern.
I know this isn’t the kind of delusional you’re talking about, but just wanted to share.
Was Meta stock dipping and needed a boost? Fraud is legal now, so I guess that’s fine.
Dude is full of himself.
“I don’t know why. They ‘trust me’. Dumb fucks”
That Zuckerberg?
The thing is, he is referencing specifically a model that recently demonstrated (to its developers at least) the ability to self improve without direct human input. But obviously there are caveats to what that actually means.
That he is referencing something specific and recent though makes me think he’s being genuine here, he believes what he is saying.
Obviously, hes almost certainly jumping the gun. Hes demonstrated a lack of critical thinking when it comes to new technological developments. See: all the money he dumped into VR and the Metaverse. (I say this as much as I personally like VR, its not exactly a money maker)
I see some commenters here pointing out that he is a coder, but he’s probably not coded anything for more than a decade at this point. He is fully immersed in the Silicon Valley koolaid, only he seems to use more public facing optimism about AI compared to other CEOs.
A jabber bot that slightly improved (through pre training) it’s words per minute when responding but is still just mindlessly jabbering/hallucinating is just as dumb as it was before. I mean random chance is a not insignificant factor with LLMs… But also, it’s a pretty big assumption these days that “scientific” papers mean anything. There’s already been sobmany fraudulent LLM papers, like LLMs “teaching themselves other languages” or LLMs “showing ability to reason” when all of that was just a product of the training data.
Man, I wish this guy would fuck off somewhere and just retire. Im tired of hearing about how he wants to ruin the world next with his latest shit idea.
Hey Zuck, suck it!
Can you imagine how much better everything would be if FaceBook was created by Pedro Pascal instead of Zuckerberg?
And I mean everything.
Done. Zuckerberg is now starring as Joel in The Last of Us.
Thats very far away from a position of control.
I’ll take it.
I’m deeply suspicious of anyone these days that writes a ‘manifesto’. They’re generally up to no good.
