"AI will make the world a better place"

Well I'm still waiting for 1 breakthrough in medicine, meanwhile yeah of course, military. I wonder if the IDF is making pull requests with the extensive experience gained by Lavender.

This world sucks

AI is already being used to help detect cancers and other illnesses. The medical innovations aren't as attention grabbing unfortunately. Can't say I'm much of a fan of other AI uses myself either.

Indeed, but by breakthrough I mean curing cancer or aids for example. Billions poured in developing AI for war could maybe have brought such breakthroughs

LLMs aren't it, but AI, as in the computer science field, has been helping the medical industry since it has existed.
