No I don't have a "problem with that". And yes, people learn by imitation, which is what I meant by practice. Playing the guitar is a fundamentally different activity than knowing music theory. Becoming good at one doesn&#x27

I learned to play guitar by my own when I was around 12. You don't really even need to know music theory to play guitar, as long as you understand the shapes etc. Over time, I developed shorthands for understanding theory like i can ea

"remember everyone bitching about LLMs" is not a valid argument though. Yes, alignment is not a bunch of dials but the responsibility of a model's actions unlitimately depends on how it was trained. Thus, any agency or wantin

"Wanting" is indeed "load bearing" as one might call it. But by the same logic, AI training data must contain CASM, racism, general hatred, and all possible slurs as well. Why aren't the agents just doing that inste

This is what I don't get often when people say "ai will be the ui". Like pressing a button to get an action done for me will always be quicker than asking an LLM to do an action and then waiting for it to understand and do th

Interesting idea. I left social media over half a decade ago and just nuked my accounts. Something like this could have been useful. Like a personal archive

Wasn't that true for tech in general though? I mean I have heard developers bitching about React for years now and every year I saw it get more adopted at the same time. Of course some obviously do not like it but the decision was usua

Okay but the claim is people are being re-arrested because of this "sort of thing". But I read the linked article, and it doesn't mention anyone getting re-arrested. There is only one situation described where the person is a

Wouldn't that work if you already know what to search for? Wouldn't all drawings for streets or overview maps looks very simillar to the point where false positives will be unavoidable?

How is it unjust? A company is not owed any profits, if it gets rekt by an union then it gets rekt. It cannot say "oh its not fair you guys are fighting me, only I can fight you in a just fight!" Ridiculous logic.

I would say prediction markets are more dangerous since they don't claim its gambling while sports gambling is much more explicit (not that the industry is a saint by any means)

Little did you know "they" were secretly harvesting data so their models can draw the best pelicans because someone keeps benchmarking them.

yes makes sense but don't you think that risk will also extend to OSS? I get there's more freedom and people can always fork but I have experienced several open source projects go to garbage as well and forced me to switch to anot

Yes I would consider my system optimal in terms of backup process etc. But I still tinker with it, try out new things, maintain the machines itself, it is a hobby. And it does consume time for me at least. But either way, I am sure a google

yes but there is still an opportunity cost. As I said I still do it because I like it but I also have a life outside just computers. Any time i spend on my homelab is also time I take away from other things. Also there is learning but a lot

People setting up homelab often talk about money saved but never account for the time they have to spend as well not just in setting it up and maintainence. If you value your time, the cost of a google pro subscription is not much. I still

Yes, Steve Jobs was such a fuck you to the establishment. He never had government contracts with NeXT. The article calls him a son of an immigrant five times as if that is a moral virtue for some reason. Dude was a pretty trash human being

Not if they do not change their relationship and see AI as god. Then it is still just as irrational except you now actually have your god 24x7 available and talk back to you. Imo that sounds much more insane and prone to hallucinations than

I read very fast and I noticed that after a certain point, it helps to not have the inner voice. Instead its more like I see a bunch of text and I understand it instead of going word by word. I don't think its possible to do this with

Yes I understand that but I refuse to believe this idea that it influences how people talk. As you said, the typical AI-style of writing is very easily recognised and is not really great for everyday communications. Also it makes no sense y

Just so we are clear, no "caveman" spoke English. "Caveman speak" is just shortening the vocabulary of english, not a "caveman language". Given this, your concerns for "stereotypical caveman manner" m
