Like many other "masculine culture" things, the propaganda sold to men about what's masculine doesn't necessarily have a connection to reality.

In layman's terms, this seems to mean that given a certain unedited LLM output, plus complete information about the LLM, they can determine what prompt was used to create the output. Except that in practice this works almost never. Am

Ad-hoc blocking of bad actors is bound to be an endless futile game of wack a mole. The way I see things going, the internet is continuing to move away from an open web and into walled gardens. Those with resources will create large walled

Thank you for sharing this! I read The Body Keeps the Score about 10 years ago after experiencing a particularly traumatic event. I had been searching for answers at the time for how to heal from the event, and someone recommended the book

Based on the marketing page and App Store page, I can't really tell what sets this apart from ChatGPT. It looks like essentially the same thing, with a slightly different UI. What features does it have that add value over ChatGPT?

That would be a great idea if I were on vacation in a cabin in the woods. But realistically, I need my phone for just about everything I do on a daily basis, from payments, to navigation, to communicating with friends and family, and loggin

I hate that both this kind of machine learning applied to scientific research and consumer focused LLMs are both called "AI", that neither is "intelligent" and that consumers don't know the difference.

Presumably not if you don't give your bank account credentials to Comet. I'd be extremely cautious about which credentials Comet gets access to. Basically only accounts that aren't tied to anything vital.

Don't make the mistake of thinking that "knowing" has anything to do with the output of ChatGPT. It gives you the statistically most likely output based on its training data. It's not checking some sort of internal knowl

Couchsurfing isn't aggressively monetized. They've got a very very small annual fee, and once you pay it they never harass you for money. It's far less monetized than other mainstream apps.

Personally, I don't believe AI is ever going to get to that level. I'd love to be proven wrong, but I really don't believe that an LLM is the right tool for a job that requires novel thinking about out of the ordinary problem
