Billion Dollar Teams: The Future of an AI Powered Workforce | SXSW 2024

My thoughts as well. I follow AI stuff across a lot of channels and this is one of the best presentations I have seen on it. Great work. Liked, subscribed and now I’m following. Thanks!

[@LFPAnimations]

this guy is really good at doing the classic silicon valley hype tactic. He cites the rate of change and where things are going, but kind of glosses over the fact that the vast majority of these AI projects have some glaring flaws that may not have solutions. Copyright infringement, hallucinations, misinformation and misleading answers, and lack of control in the output. Anyone who has to work with computers for their job knows that any fancy new tech will inevitably need you to hold it's hand to get the end product you want. The question with AI is whether the hand-holding and prompt-engineering will actually take less effort than doing the task the original way.

[@friarnewborg9213]

Exactly. WHO will FIX the "glaring flaws"? This presentation is SUPERFICIAL, and FLIMSY

Spech prep would include obstacle courses and American Ninja Warrior speed runs. Sounds kinda fun, actually.

[@christophmagnussen]

42:22 pretty impressive in terms of speed for the brainstorming and in mean this is definitely something I’m also pushing for years. One question that comes to my mind though: how fast will people adopt to this new way of working? 🤔 And eventually: who will guide them there? 🤷🏼 from my experience this is the key part in bringing people along. We did that before the pandemic for cloud and collaboration tools but this here is much more profound. It will widen the gap between companies who don’t leverage on that and those who go supercharged next week. This will be an interesting journey to explore. I will keep an eye on that within our client base and make a video about it ✊

[@IanBeacraft]

I look forward to watching the video. Please send me a note when you publish it. I think there is going to be a wide gap between companies that embrace this technology, and those that don't. I'm careful when I say that, because there are dozens of caveats that every company should be aware of, from data bias and privacy, to costs, training, tools, and workflows. It requires more than flipping a switch, but those who do put in the time, effort, and investment, will have an incresible lead in this new era.

[@EricB1]

"The brand guidelines, the imagery that we've done, archival footage and documentation, the types of SOPs that we have and also the information that's in specialist heads to be able to distribute across the team in a way that is scalable. And that's a challenge, it's a huge challenge because a lot of that stuff stays within people's heads. What does this solve? Huge things, like the average employee spending 32 days of the year looking for information to do their job, that is 13% of your payroll wasted. If you're waiting for a use case to apply AI in your organization, especially retrieval augmented generation, 37:22 there it is, just saved you 13%, you're welcome." -- Shows that even if good RAG is difficult, it is worth it.

[@IanBeacraft]

And the things you learn along the way are priceless for creating new ways of working within your own org. Excited to hear what you do with it, Eric.

Only halfway through so far but I don't see how Ai would meaningfully change the structure like you say. As an artist, I would never trust the programmer on my team to lead the art just because we have image generators or whatever the more advanced application of the technology will be. I think ownership over areas of production will always be the important part and areas of expertise or "roles" will remain. We are as individuals different so different things will interest us.

"Creative generalist". If all of us are able (via ai, bots) to create anything, when nothing will have any value anymore, we will just have an enormous amount of content worth nothing at all, to anyone except perhaps the creator. If you mix all the colors of paint together you get black because you've created a substance that subtracts (absorbs) all the colors and to us, an absence of light is seen as black. Something to think about.

[@charlessweet]

Nothing means anything now. There is no purpose to our current life, and the stopgap of self-identifying with your work isn't relevant anymore. Plus, most people aren't learning how to use LLMs effectively right now, so the skill gap between those who do and those who come later will be wide enough to arbitrage. Like the GMO stickers you see on food at the store, you'll likely see a "powered by AI" sticker on the content you consume, and that gives you the ability to choose 100% human options if you want.

It's also worse than that. It's not dissimilar to the crypto-grift, the "one person billion dollar company" bit is the best example of that. We can't all have billion dollar companies, unless we devalue our currencies and then we might as well erase some zeros and are .... back to where we are now. No, what this guy means, the few who get in early NOW will just extract all the wealth from .... guess who, our kids. Just the stupidest inhumane mindset in the world. He's talking big about "leave the industrial revolution behind" but it's just not.

[@n8bit_]

The point being is, he created that with a click, a small idea, almost instantly and for free. These tools will continue to get better. Dont get too caught up on its current limitations. Its going to get better and we need to learn how to utilize these capabilities / tools. 2 years ago, people were saying about image generation, "yeah but it will never be photo realistic..." etc.

[@IanBeacraft]

Thanks for the correction, @thesomantics. I try to be accurate in my presenations and will note that for next time. Ultimately, we weren't trying to create anything complex in 3D. The goal was to take the ideas that were coming up in a live brainstorm session and prorotype them in realtime, so the participants could see their ideas come to life before their eyes, rather than sticking a bunch of post-it notes on a whiteboard. It turned out to be incredibly effective.

[@Sp8e]

The funny thing about exponential evolution is that by the time this guy finished his presentation most of what he said became irrelevant because his vision is not based on everlasting principles, it’s just a peak into a future which like he said, will not be standing still

[@saurabhbanerjee2998]

If one person can create 1billion company, very few will have jobs and therefore no buying power to purchase the products the billionaires will want to sell. So how can we have billion dollar companies building robots , if they don't have customers who have the money to buy their products?

[@charlessweet]

They likely wouldn't sell direct to the public (and if they did, they'd position it as valuable enough to spend your UBI on); instead, they'd spin up solutions valuable to government and private sector corporations (who then would subsidize the expense by incorporating governmental kickbacks through access to UBI benefits).

[@justmoritz]

Bingo. This is the crux of the whole thing. It's just a few extracting wealth from the rest of is all over again. Just this time with AI!

[@robertruffo2134]

If anyone can do "X", then no one can do X for a living above minimum wage, if that. It's that simple. Learn basic economics. And for those who say "It will be a bunnies and rainbows world with Universal Income, well, right now, people who are still **needed** by corporations, like fast food workers, people who labour 10-14 hours a day at 2 jobs, they can in many cases not make rent. Imagine how much generosity will be thrown their way when they are no longer needed at all.

[@charlessweet]

That's just it - the idea of "money" is as antiquated an idea as working for a living. No one asked to be born into a life where the better of your years is spent doing things you hate for people you dislike to buy things you don't need and/or to live a happy life. I see AI as a way to unbundle (and unburden) ourselves from tying purpose to profits.

@@robertruffo2134 As theoretical as a utopian world where its people spend their days doing what they want to do instead of what makes them money is, the current alternative that we live in now, where we are capitalized upon for not having the resources to opt out of the "game" so to speak is coming to an end. Take a look at the Anti-Work phenomenon for example: what started as a single Reddit post has grown into a movement that has not only gotten the attention of legitimate news outlets, but politicians as well. Young people don't see value in the old ways, and we see it in more and more reports of traditional trades not having enough workforce.

[@theword7268]

I really enjoyed this insight. That said, I listen to (ALOT) of these people talking about the impact of AI (II - Inorganic Intelligence) on work and jobs and although this paints things in a promising and optimistic light imho even given the take on skills vs task focus (jobs being a collection of tasks that II can do instead of you ergo replacing you) the fact still remains that in a mainly capitalistic system where companies are mainly driven by profit the end result will be the same i.e.e less people working b/c people require payment. At the end of the day, II will erode the cost value employees can demand for their skills. I personally dont worry about humans being replaced. I worry about the economic system that we will be operating within which currently cannot support the VAST majority of people who will either be cut or devaled b/c of II.

I think it depends on the source material the LLM trains on. The photographer shown in this video used his own work. Everything is original and proprietary, nothing scraped. Production companies can do the same thing using their own libraries or material by other contractors in the case of the 15 minute animatic example here. I think the real question is whether this type of AI capability exists. And it does. The likely theme of this presentation is what you do with that capability now that it's here.

Technology grows exponentially , cant outrun - even Google took 18 months to re engineer , perhaps 100,000x better every 5 years - CEO's cant plan - what is work in 5 years - 50% companies will bankrupt in 10 years , mostly blown out by equalizing technologies and wasted patents
