and Sauron used/uses that ring as a tool

by jimjimjim 2y ago
uh, no. I'm pretty sure Sauron is the Lord of the Rings including the one ring. Since he, you know, kind of made them all.

Why are employees complaint useless? And why shouldn't news articles mention complaints?

My guess is that it's not the lack of sensors that causes the problem with autonomous driving, rather it is the processing of the data. What should the car do if there is a flood covering a dip in the road?

That right, blame the hippies. Nothing at all to do with nuclear power plants being the one thing that you really do want to be engineered well. But no, regulations are of course to blame!

This is where I've ended up. The code and info is out there on the internet. To me LLMs are this decade's stackoverflow copy 'n paste. Just with a more fancy search and replace

what have "their interests" got to do with what is on the computer screen?

by jimjimjim 2y ago
Thank you. For some reason I hadn't thought of the advertising angle with local LLMs but you are right! For example, why is Microsoft hell-bent on pushing Recall onto windows? Answer: targeted advertising.

I guess it depends on your definition of AI. I personally don't consider the LLMs AI. Very useful, but to me not AI.

It's like those ads for coke or mcdonalds. They aren't giving anybody any new information. Instead it's to continuously put the logos, branding and name into the mind of the viewer/user. That way people should feel that

But what about all those organizations that have "Do something with AI" as the goal for the quarter? All those bonuses driving people to somehow add AI to products. All the poor devs that have been told to replace features drive

This is true of my experience with Google as well. I know it's fashionable to hate Google but Google's search was better than what was there before (altavista, webcrawler or those godforsaken screen cluttered portals). Gmail was&#

I really do believe there should be negative repercussions for bullshitting. I would pay for a news source that fact checked anything said by a politician and stated it in the news article. And also, during interviews, called out obvious bu

I think this is not restricted to Japan. In many countries, yes, including the obvious ones, a lot of people have integrated a political party's view of the world into their world view and their self-concept.

Redaction is not simple. What should the software do if the user's black box is drawn over an image, some text and part of a spline on a page? Modify the image and recompress it even if it's lossy?, find the text run and remove th

It's a fun experience just being in the absolutely packed rush hour Tokyo trains. Although I don't have to worry about claustrophobia since I'm 6'3 tall and I'm able to look out above the heads of everybody else.
