Sure, why not? I can use a new brother.

I used to hear my dad repeat Faux talking points about how “gerrymandering isn’t even real” or some BS. It’s been so tempting to throw it back in his face - but I know that won’t be worth my time, so why bother.

Just curious, but in exactly what way is not already on complete control?

I don’t know, I mean if any corporation can eat the loss, it’s apple with their insanely high margins.

I’m more inclined to believe there’s some form of quid pro quo going on behind the scenes.

Besides, I simply cannot picture Tim Apple as any kind of a hero in this picture. No way he got bullied. He’s getting something out of it. You scratch my back. I’ll scratch yours.

You know what keeps me up at night? Democrats get elected into power and just leave shit all broken. I mean, sorry to say but that is the pattern we’ve seen from them for decades now.

Now, please don’t get me wrong, I am NOT saying “both sides same, blah blah”. I just don’t really believe there’s anyone in the Capitol who is actually fighting for me anymore, save perhaps a tiny few who have no realistic chance to help. Not Bernie’s fault they fucked him over, for example, and I have mad respect for him. But one man, maybe one or two allies, standing in front of this wave of irrational hatred? We’re fucked.

All 6s users hey a warning you might be affected. They give you a link you have to follow to check. Load the page, you’re in your IMEI and it will confirm if you’re affected

Maybe they did, maybe they didn’t. If there was evidence of wrongdoing, which again there is not, I could understand your position. Until then, there is not, in fact, any reason to believe she did not properly train, instruct, and manage her staff.

Sorry, no LLM is ever going to spontaneously gain the abilities self-replicate. This is completely beyond the scope of generative AI.

This whole hype around AI and LLMs is ridiculous, not to mention completely unjustified. The appearance of a vast leap forward in this field is an illusion. They’re just linking more and more processor cores together, until a glorified chatbot can be made to appear intelligent. But this is struggling actual research and innovation in the field, instead turning the market into a costly, and destructive, arms race.

The current algorithms will never “be good enough to copy themselves”. No matter what a conman like Altman says.

Eh, no. The ability to generate text that mimics human working does not mean they are intelligent. And AI is a misnomer. It has been from the beginning. Now, from a technical perspective, sure, call em AI if you want. But using that as an excuse to skip right past the word “artificial” is disingenuous in the extreme.

On the other hand, the way the term AI is generally used technically would be called GAI, or General Artificial Intelligence, which does not exist (and may or may not ever exist).

Bottom line, a finely tuned statistical engine is not intelligent. And that’s all LLM or any other generative “AI” is at the end of the day. The lack of actual intelligence is evidenced by the way they create statements that are factually incorrect at such a high rate. So, if you use the most common definition for AI, no, LLMs absolutely are not AI.

Heh. Yes they’re similar, but on the technical side different in a very important way. It has to do with opening a file from inside another program. If you select a shortcut, the program with treat or as a separate file, so most of the time the action will fail. A link, though, you should end up with the program opening the target of the link. In other words, a shortcut is a file that points at a different file, where a symlink involves she filesystem trickery to accomplish almost the same thing.

That’s a horrible, just terrible explanation, though - but I’m pretty sure this is the gist of it.

Umm. Wow. That’s completely delusional.

I don’t think we started out great, honestly. Our history is pretty fucking dark. I think we could have been great, and we might have even been getting close. But I absolutely agree that the progress we have made is regressing in front of our eyes. Worse, anybody who doesn’t celebrate this senseless destruction is also being demonized.

Lol

Whatever dude

I did a quick Google search, and this is just a random sampling of the results. What you are saying is false. Period. I don’t know if you’re intentionally lying or not, but it’s frankly embarrassing to see someone try to argue against reality.

I wish that were true. But it’s getting sabotaged, one little bit at a time. Death by a thousand cuts.

I agree with all of this, just want to add a little bit: these treated fucks are literally offended that we have anything. Because then we don’t “remember our place” or whatever.

Funny how allowing the owner class to exploit children is phrased to imply it’s giving children a choice. 🤮

Wow. That’s some courage and strength. Mad respect.
