Nah, your browser is a corporate one with only corporate use cases that only accepts certs with extremely short lifetimes. I self-signed the cert so it's good till 2050. You can always turn off JS and access the HTTP version of the site.
As for my qualifications, I've trained a very small (~0.8B) LLM myself on 3GB of IRC logs. So I kind of know what I'm doing and have a basic understanding of the theory involved and the pragmatic issues.
- sorcerer-mar 1y agoIs that meant to be a humorous claim to authority?
- evrimoztamur 1y agoStock iOS Safari, and I do not accept your beginner-hobbyist credentials and superficial comments on genuine political issues concerning copyright law and fair labour compensation, not copy-pasted Python tutorials.
- hu3 1y ago> Stock iOS Safari to be fair that's not a bastion of quality either.
- evrimoztamur 1y agoWhat do you mean by quality, exactly? My up to date list of recognised certificate authorities in one of the two major smartphone OSs does not validate his certificate. This is not a matter of 'quality' of Safari, or iOS.
- superkuh 1y agoThat's fine. I understand. Only corporations matter. And this is a corporation with celebrity names associated! Surely that means the people involved know what they're talking about more than a random person with direct experience. After all, that person isn't trying to make money. Their opinion can't possibly matter if they're not trying to make money.
- cush 1y ago"My opinion is more important than the opinions of the greatest musicians of all time, because I once built an LLM myself on 3GB of IRC logs" - superkuh, 2025
- superkuh 1y agoIt's like thinking the greatest musicians of all time have reliable expert opinions on audio electronics. Sure, it's technically music related but the skill set doesn't really transfer to, say, ADC design. I'm not saying I'm great. If we go back to my original comment which started this thread, I'm saying this group has few relevant qualifications besides celebrity and profit lust. Which means even I know more than them about generative and LLM AI training, and the regulatory implications, despite just being a "hobbyist" in the domain.
- sorcerer-mar 1y agoYou win on hubris, I'll give you that
- cush 1y agoHow could you possibly know that you know more than them about anything without knowing them? It's all assumptions It's actually like thinking that the most influential musicians in history are somehow not qualified to step up and discuss the licensing and legal implications of LLMs, having spent half a century battling similar corporate forces, and warning the industry how history likes to repeat itself. Get over yourself bud
