And the voices. “Billy…”
“You fucked the whole thing up.”
“Billy, your time is up.”
“Your time… is up.”
Low level programming C
Could be pretty much any computer
rust
Need a lot of memory (8-16 GB) if you are planning on dissecting any existing projects
Machine Learning programming with Python
Start with colab / huggingface and get a feel for what level of hardware you need for the stuff you’re doing before you start buying stuff
If you want just a general high quality system with upgradability etc, frame.work or System76 are supposed to be good high end providers.
Honestly this meme is way understating the sinisterness
This has been 100% my experience with my Brother printer
I mean, it’s clearly doing something which is impressive and useful. It’s just that the thing that it’s doing is not intelligence, and dressing it up convincingly imitate intelligence may not have been good for anyone involved in the whole operation.
May I offer you a fairly convincing explanation
How will launching mirrors of the size of your entire farm (if not hundreds times larger) for extra 30 min of sunset ever be more cost-effective than simply adding a small percentage of extra PV panels
This is this year’s single biggest understatement
Have you ever attempted to fill up one of those monster context windows up with useful context and then let the model try to do some useful task with all the information in it?
I have. Sometimes it works, but often it’s not pretty. Context window size is the new MHz, in terms of misleading performance measurements.
Asking multiple times will get you variations with different policies, some of which sound distinctly un-X-ish, like “be mindful of cultural sensitivities.”

The weird thing is, it is. These guys who want to knock out the pillars of democracy and sell them as scrap like a bunch of methheads taking apart the load bearing structure of their own parking garage, never set up shop in one of the “after” republics like Russia or wherever. They always wanna come to our places so they be reaping the tasty profitable stable fruits of the democracy they’re dismantling.
Someone else had one, it was great, Facebook bought it, and then they (to their credit) made it available for free to everyone for quite a while, and now they’ve decided you know what maybe we can have a little disinformation and it’s okay, you guys understand, right?
OpenAI at least is now attempting to bolt on a “memory” by having the LLM spit out short snippets of what it might need to know later, which it then has access to when completing later prompts. Like everything else post-GPT-4, it seems fine but doesn’t work really all that well at what it is intended to do.
I just tried Claude after having some issues with using GPT on Firefox that OpenAI’s support was unable to resolve other than some “it’s all your fault, clear your cookies” bullet points.
I only tried Claude a little bit so far, but it seems way better.
You’ve seen porn addiction yes, but have you seen AI boyfriend emotional attachment addiction?
Guaranteed to ruin your life! Act now.
Yeah. If it had any empathy this would be a good task and a genuinely helpful thing. As it is, it’s going to produce nothing but pain and confusion and false hope if turned loose on this task.
This is one of the weirdest of several weird things about the people who are marketing AI right now
I went to ChatGPT right now and one of the auto prompts it has is “Message to comfort a friend”
If I was in some sort of distress and someone sent me a comforting message and I later found out they had ChatGPT write the message for them I think I would abandon the friendship as a pointless endeavor
What world do these people live in where they’re like “I wish AI would write meaningful messages to my friends for me, so I didn’t have to”
Zuckerberg is a big piece of shit who could be using his dominant position and all his money to do something good for the world, and instead is actively helping ruin it. But, at least he created his thing, instead of just buying with apartheid money things that other more capable people built, and then ruining them. He’s not just a useless alt-right lump. And, he actually trains in martial arts instead of just sitting around taking ketamine and using weird alts on his own social media network to try to make himself look likeable.
I wish that this would happen. I think it is sensible to think that it would be like that Australian TV presenter who made fun of Tae Kwon Doe so they invited a high level female TKD competitor to come on the air and kick the shit out of him.
“Hey, so it’s me, the guys who left all those comments. Yeah, so we decided that since we wrote them, and the American system says that means we hold the copyright, we don’t really want you selling them without (a) securing our permission first, and (b) giving us a cut of the action. Were thinking maybe like a 30% royalty. It’s not like exorbitant; it probably won’t work out to much more than a few cents per user. But it’s more about the principle, you know?”
“Anyway, what do you think?”
WHAT DO I THINK
I THINK IT’S ALL MINE
DO YOU HEAR ME

PAY ME NOW
IT’S ALL MINE, PAY ME

Someone on Lemmy phrased it in a way that I think gets to the heart of it: With most of the impressive things that LLMs can do, the human reading and interpreting the text is providing a critical piece of the impressive thing.
LLMs are clearly very impressive; I would not say that the disillusionment on discovering what they can’t do should detract from that. But they seem more impressive than they are, partly because humans are so good at filling in meaning and intelligence where there (yet) is none.
From the article, quoting a Firefox dev explaining the decision:
@McCovican @jonny @mathew @RenewedRebecca Opt-in is only meaningful if users can make an informed decision. I think explaining a system like PPA would be a difficult task. And most users complain a lot about these types of interruption.
In my opinion an easily discoverable opt-out option + blog posts and such were the right decision.
puts on They Live glasses
@McCovican @jonny @mathew @RenewedRebecca If we had made it opt in, then not a single human being on the planet would have enabled it, and we didn’t want that
What about blending tutorials tho
