how about we pass a law forcing people to state whether a piece of content has been generated by an AI without human supervision ?

this story made me realize we’re amazed by chatgpt’s ability to answer our questions. But how about chatgpt’s ability to evaluate our answer to its questions ? Never seen prompts of chatgpt acting like a teacher. Wonder how that would look.

It’s different in that the text that’s displayed in a chatgpt response never existed anywhere before you asked the question. That’s what « generating » means, in that context.

If you’re genuinely interested , it’s a very long story, but let me sum it up : - in 2019 a law was passed, scheduled for being in effect starting 2023 - in 2020 they changed the way the evaluation was performed. Instead or relying on energ

I feel your pain. And you still don't realize the worst part: things are going to get far far worse thanks to the new laws regarding energy "performance". Basically, laws now mandate every flat to have good thermal isolation,

You’re conflating the way it’s built, with the things it’s doing. Your argument could also be « neurons are just blobs of atoms exchanging electric signal, it’s not intelligence » Yes, at the end it’s just a huge n-dimensional cube of numbe

If being able to invent those jokes isn't a sign of emerging intelligence... I'm not sure people outside comp science realize the philosophical implications of chatgpt on the human nature.

Never understood how people would leave twitter for mastodon (which is federated) as a way to protest against nonregulated free speech (not the case for pg, but that’s what’s started the trend).

I can’t get how people would react like this. The only negative point we have against this AI is that it is not always correct. Not that the responses are nonsensical, or syntaxically incorrect, or don’t have any meaning, or are out of cont

I don’t think we understood each other. I’m saying twitter should have to release their client code *if their client code uses libsignal*. What i’m saying about server code is the logic of agpl. GPL is about providing the means for users to

IANAL but my understanding is that agpl requires you to publish server code if that code uses code under agpl, because consuming an api is equivalent to distributing the code.Aka that "calling an api which uses agpl code" is equiv

The way it explains code, the error, and then gives the solution to this particular error, i really don’t understand how someone could pretend we’re not witnessing at least a first hint of true intelligence.
