yeah I don't like this "definition", I fully agree that the technology is the issue, but the "badness" of it is irrelevant. In my opinion giving kids unfettered access is the problem. Lockdown tcp/ip and have w

I like the thing that, when cyber crimes get committed we can now blame it on AI. Think of the possibilities! Also I'm looking for a job at any AI firm, minimum wage is fine.

Its my understanding that rust just addresses memory safety, and it all falls apart at the first mention of "unsafe" or whatever the keyword is, not to mention the supply chain thing with the crates. Obviously AI makes it all moot

Yes but if Bush Sr listened to his wife, and additionally, his wife loved him enough to not leave him, thats something right? Or do you think someone with Barbara Bush's elevated love of america lost that love long enough to marry Bush

I don't believe that a pure neural network can currently abide by the rules of chess, even with unreasonable amounts of training. Do you have a counter example? I never mind having beliefs challenged with facts lol edit: I think you co

I'd like to contribute my amateur hour entry into this thread, although I did administer and develop mssql stuff for awhile. sure optimizations based on stats, but the stats are the wildcard, in my experience query plans can change sud

Yeah, Buffet is right, the trend has been downward, although I think Bush Sr. might have been the exception. And I do agree that the American age is ending. With trump tho, it just seems worse. Course the only thing I have to go on is evide

Greed has also been very inefficient at holding companies accountable in regards to external costs.

In the US at least, removing safe and trustworthy sources of information is a goal, I can tell this by listening to politicians lambasting media companies and the hostility shown toward reporters.

democracy is imperfect, I like to view public hearings as helping nudge democracy back toward functionality. Heck humanities very stewardship of our only home in the universe is currently a very dumb process but do we have to delete the ste

>Ascribing malice seems a bit irrational to me. I agree with this, I'm thinking more along the line of debate mistake. I make them, I always invite corrections and I think the willingness to speak on terms of your debate opponent sm

sure sure but just don't give kids internet access problem solved. All these problems are because we insist on giving kids internet access then try to ban them from internet sites. Its all just very stupid.

Its good that you're listening to the lefties, but are you listening to the right too? You know the guys I'm talking about. Something tells me you might be giving your own a pass on this very behavior you're accusing us lefti

I'm a liberal, but I think some pragmatism is called for here, the story was pretty smutty, and it was a bad call for this instructor to include it in her curriculum. Lets keep the degeneracy in our private lives, not everyone aspires

I support her dismissal, teaching positions require a pretty decent level of skill, and her ability to "read the room" has been called into question by her delivery of what I presume to be dodgy, offensive material. Her lack of ju

whats crazy is that we got here and it isn't even the midterms yet, who knows how cranky folks are going to get if the midterms don't go well for them.

the US statistical system is currently down, I'm estimating that we won't get an accurate picture of what systems have been wiped out until we can get some forensic analysts in there in 2029 or so once we solve a little HR issue w

I think it being controlled by that different branch is part of it, but that includes the undesirable attributes of that different branch, and I don't think we need to go into the details of those attributes lol

Its my stated disagreement with the following: >I think it makes sense to say training on material you legally acquired is fair use. First an aside, there's no law against accessing copyrighted material. OpenAI is certainly welcome

Here's the bottom line for me, take two llms, train one on copyrighted materials, do not train the other at all. now, I'm wondering here, which llm will be more sellable, more able to answer questions etc? How about those music AI

I personally do not use QR codes. I suppose there could come a time where I could benefit from scanning one but I still have access to restaurants where you can order manually from humans and they cook the food themselves also.
