You hit the nail on the head. As bad as reddit is nowadays, I will never use Lemmy because it attracts the activists and "power users" that have ruined reddit in the first place.

> remove posts from people that have posted in identified subreddits So you're actually censoring opinions, not fighting spam, just like every other reddit mod.

Yeah, I don't remember when was the last time I even visited stackexchange. AI is so much better, it's not even a contest. The real question is where AI will get its knowledge in 10 or 15 years when there is no training material a

Now write a blog post about that line at the bottom with comparable magnitude in the other direction.

It's not reversible. You can't undo the suffering that has been inflicted on the patient.

You get German citizenship almost automatically after 5 years in the country just by having a job and a basic understanding of the language. Even without speaking the language you can get citizenship simply by going to school here for 4 yea

It's a good thing you can't get permanent residency, let alone citizenship! without speaking the local language. There are few countries in the world that hand out citizenship as cheaply as Germany.

No such assumption is necessary. If they didn't then that the entire comment is totally baseless speculation, no better than asking a horoscope.

Your comment is suspiciously missing the part where your students performed measurably better after decreasing CO2 concentration.

You know what also impacts my decision making ability? Freezing my ass off because people are opening all the windows every five minutes.

China can do it. No car that leaves a factory there is the same. Everything automated and yet customizable.

Maybe it is. If you think about it hard, you will find that you cannot separate the idea of dog from the word dog. The object dog can only be understood as a perception linked to that idea.

No, I don't think so. Language is intimately intertwined with our understanding of the world. Many people make the mistake to think that languages are about the spelling or the sound or maybe the grammar. But in reality they are about

In Germany we get zero-th opinion because you can't even get an appointment within the next 8 months.

They never will. The only reason China releases open weights is because they can't compete on frontier models. Whoever has the frontier model has no incentive to give it away for free.

Or maybe 2 out of 3 guys you call "AI" actually wrote it themselves and you were too prejudiced to believe them.

You're surprised? They lean to the side that is heavily favored by the cultural mainstream.

Probably they will, unless Claude and GPT become luxury brands like Gucci. Currently it makes no sense for them to invest into efficiency. They need to put everything into competing for the top spot as long as they still have a shot.

Everyone wants widespread adoption, of course. I'm sure that China is also working on more expensive frontier intelligence models behind doors, but they're lagging behind America on that front. Going for cost-optimized open weight

And guess what all the providers of open models do: They quantize, badly.

Who cares about motor efficiency when you can only take 10% as much fuel. At the end of the day, cost is the only metric that matters.

These models are far too expensive to run yourself and independent LLM providers of open models do even more secret nerfing than the original creators because they have no reputation to lose.

You got it the wrong way around. Industrial revolution happened _because_ there was demand from a new middle class for those goods.

If these models ever reach the point where they are as good a programmer as a human is (and thus can self-improve completely independently), then there won't be an independent Switzerland much longer. AI race is a race for first place.

But if you have to write everything down in such detail, isn't it faster to just do the task yourself?
