- Laplace Conjecture: If you gave me a long enough rigid stick and a fulcrum, I were able to displace the Earth.
At that time, Laplace's Conjecture was believed to be very true from the viewpoint of mechanical world.
100 years later, his conjecture was disproved by a completely new space-time structure - the relativistic space-time structure rigorously proven by every experiment having been done yet.
- AI Big Hype Conjecture: If we could get enough processing power (resources, investment and finally, money of course), our data centres and their software would finally turn out to be omnipotent.
However, those AI big hype corps cannot even estimate a formula of their conjecture.
- "Total Volume of Context Stored represents Intelligence and Skill"
This is another conjecture always boosted by AI Big Hype corps. Here is how a net buddy responds to the above conjecture (credit to him):
If a land-based continental creature (for instance, a chimpanzee) reads all the swimming tutorials which human have ever authored, does it imply that the chimpanzee could swim as well as the swimming trainers?
- In the future, there are only 2 sets of people left - one set who knows AI and the other set who doesn't.
The implication of this statement is that - if you do not learn AI and pay money to buy AI services right now, you will belong to the 2nd set - the set of poor people.
This is how I respond to the above statement with these analogies:
- After the invention of vehicle driven by combustion engine, people were divided into 2 sets - the one who could drive and another set of people who could not drive. As we know, professional drivers are usually considered as labours; while some very rich people might even do not need to drive a car.
- so many similar analogies.
