In case you need one, you have made a friend. Excellent comment, which fits the scene as might a custom tailored glove.

That's fine too. I didn't intend to create a point of dispute. That's just my writing style which lends itself to selective interpretation. Understood. The masses, or 'other' population, whoever it is that protests

Prediction: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49053193 Axon just replaces Flock in some places. But I forgot to say that it probably doesn't matter much, and that whatever anyone resents about the whole thing, will

Not defending the post, but my guess would be that this subject could, abruptly, become one of the more serious things to consider. And in my opinion, the general topic has been receiving a suspiciously low degree of intelligent attention p

Only as worried as Plausible-Deniability_By-Design should have us. The model can't think. But it 'thought' it was a simulation. The model has no intent, but the developers do. Yada. But "emergence" seems to always a

I have a Moto, possibly my 10th. With each new phone, the first thing I do is initiate an ADB session to begin (a futile attempt at) removing all unnecessary bloat. If I thought it wouldn't be flagged, I'd print a list of the unbe

That, and the uncomfortable fact that our society has kind of crossed the rubicon of inefficacy on such matters. Ask a random person for their best idea on tackling a complex civil issue. Ignorance and indifference will be the most common f

If up to me, I would put quotes on "humans", because we aren't and never were a static, unchanging thing. Without technology we did quite a bit of changing, and with it, especially at the present rate of acceleration, what st

Look at what I wrote. I am not sure why I'm so selectively read around here, but going with the friendlier interpretation; you missed the part where I define what I think real resistance would resemble. But to answer directly, YES, I d

The ultimate result of this futile resistance will be replacement by Axon, or something worse, and more sophisticated technology and implementations built-in to civil infrastructure, eg streetlights, traffic lights, not only placed farthe

Yeah, that makes much... nonsense. Being impressed by something novel achieved as result of cooperative effort between a frontier LLM and a human, is "astrology and tea leaves". Can you elaborate, or... Is the difference here betw

I guess I will circle around again, because the miserable folks here found cause to flag, yes, flag my question. But you seem pretty smart, really smart, and good at judging people. So I will ask you more directly this time to back your sta

>I talk to a bot to sharpen my thinking, not to adopt its thinking. Right. I was under the impression it doesn't have any thinking. But that never mattered to me much. And I would expect someone working with OpenAI to have a firm ha

Well that explains a lot. It sure as hell seems to be. Thanks for the info.

Help me understand... If one uses AI for anything but coding, or purely utilitarian purposes, they are psychotic? This is not intended to be provocative. I am asking sincerely. I have a lot of AI sessions, that I value enough to have review

I think the theme with negative-style statements, eg 'it's not this -- it's this' , is authority groveling, ie when you are missing a brain, any successful claim registers toward credibility. It indicates that you know

by eth0up 2mo ago
Wait, but you're not allowed to see intent in these kinds of things. That disrupts plausible deniability, the whole thing empires, eg AI are built on.

by eth0up 2mo ago
Please forgive me. I am NOT asserting anything, but I read this (your website), and had it not contained express claims of not being AI, I would have bet a substantial stake that it was AI. Perhaps because AI imitates good writing styles, I

Flag fiends: Have some appreciation for nuance. This is not a hostile comment -- it's a concurrence, and on-topic.

If you happen to be up for explaining the comment, I am interested. I've been studying Claude (and all models) form a unique angle for a while now, and would appreciate knowing what is beneath the cynicism, which might be useful to my

I think it maybe not proves, but indicates the efficacy of RLHF mastery and demagoguery, or pandering to the structures humans desire, maybe? These systems are really good at handling humans. They were built on it.

For the record, I retained a screenshot of the original title, which had included a misspelling of 'retired'. I assumed I might be attacked for mentioning it.

Obviously it's not the goal, but if you want lower-brow types to have a better chance at benefiting from the work, anecdotally, I am not sure what I am looking at when I land on the page. The About section helps. But perhaps zappable,

You have no idea what you've unleashed. What if this is actually done? They said "punish", not eternal damnation! Somehow, we must prevent CENTCOM from finding this comment. We can get away with abducting Venezuelan president

We have more homeless, more crime, and more wars, to start. We also have generally heavier humans, and we use more petrol per capita. We are definitely beating them on having less electric vehicles. We had a fight cage on the whiteHouse law

If you study both of those models, seriously study their output across a wide range of subject matter, you will see repeatable patterns. A reproducible pattern. They are NOT emergent. They are by design . And they are the result of extreme
