How many times did a bad “prompt” nearly destroy the Enterprise? Kill a crew member? Commit sexual harassment, due lack of a better term?

Holodecks are discrete programs with subroutines.

Now this might have something to do with what they mean when they disable safeguards. Maybe there’s a layer of user-defined limits that are carefully defined, but when safeguards are disabled, it just runs as a raw universe simulation, matter, photons and all.

It’s not generative AI we hate, it’s LLMs.

Wrong, the holodeck follow instructions, the AI neural simulation don’t. Unless you like to play in simulation created by a simulation, coded with an abstract language, run into a virtual machine. At some point in time, humanity will learn.

Artificial intelligence in science fiction is intelligence that’s artificial. Artificial intelligence in real life is more akin to what we’d call “artificial flavors” in some fruit drink that contains 0% fruit. Isn’t fruit, doesn’t taste like fruit, but it’s purple and sweet, so fuck it: “grape”. We’ve accomplished the “artificial” part, but not the bit that actually matters. So, yeah, AI in sci-fi is unironically great. “AI” irl is shit. If the real version ever comes close to the sci-fi version, you’ll see a lot of the haters change our tune, but until then we’ll call a turd a turd.

If we got all the other socialist progressive benefits of the Star Trek universe, including no billionaires, then I think we’d be a lot less unhappy with generative AI as presented in that world. How they built it, and what they plan to do with it is a pretty big part of the reason for our anger.

It’s a little more than just the genAI part tho. You can fuck the holograms.

I fucking hate holodecks. They are dangerous, psychologically destructive machines that have no place on earth. We have no idea what prolonged exposure to simulated environments does to the human brain. People are spending hours inside fake worlds instead of interacting with reality. Children are probably going to grow up thinking consequences aren’t real because their parents let them spend twelve hours a day fighting robots in a simulated medieval castle. And don’t even get me started on the fact that the computer can generate literally anything you ask for. That is not progress. That is an existential threat to society. So, naturally, I have volunteered to personally test every single holodeck in the world. Every last one. I will spend as much time as necessary inside these horrible, dangerous machines so that nobody else has to endure the terrible psychological consequences of using them. You are welcome.
