You: Hey ChatGPT, what time is it?
ChatGPT:



Until it’s no longer more profitable to make their cars safer, or regulation requires they make their cars safer, or a competitor decides to take market share by making their cars safer.
“Because they’ve become safer over time, they’ll continue to do so indefinitely” doesn’t work for me.
That’s fine because that’s not what I said.
Which of these do you disagree with?:
Human driving capability has shown no indication of improving.
Autonomous vehicle capabilities are showing indications of improving.
It doesn’t take a rocket surgeon to recognize that these measures of performance will eventually intersect (unless you think there’s something fundamentally special about human driving that is impossible to replicate).


Choices are made to put people in danger in order to extract profit by using cars AT ALL that is the problem, not who or what is operating them.
How is this any different than a person operating a cab, or a business choosing to offer food delivery?
Operating any motor vehicle in public puts people in danger and yet many people profit from the operating of motor vehicles.
What’s the difference here?


It’s odd that the thing that terrifies you is that nobody is able to be punished. Grandma and her dog are dead in both scenarios. We want whatever will cause that scenario to happen the least.
I’d rather 1 grandma is run over without a clearly responsible party than 10 grandmothers be killed while 10 drivers are sent to prison.
A person who’s not paying attention or drunk is always going to exist no matter how many grandmas are flattened. The software bug can be fixed and sensors can be improved.
Self-driving cars are the worst they will ever be and they will only get better. Human drivers are not going to improve.


I just make sure the trains packets get there on time


Ok sure, then what is the source of this moral authority which defines all morality?
Morality is a social construct, not an immutable part of the universe, and there are many societies on Earth so what is ‘moral’ completely depends on where you are.
You would think they’d at least experimint with a few lines before they cast admonishmint at we poor souls who are so pArched for a good line.
That’s because these are GUI users, the real TOS is written in an arcane format only viewable by a cat or a bat.
I tried it but TF2 wouldn’t launch so I switched to Ubuntu.

Gentoo users would too, but their social skills are still compiling


An EO can prevent states from passing laws?
Federal laws and regulations preempt state laws and regulations.
An EO by itself cannot prevent states from passing laws. The President doesn’t make laws.
What he can do is choose an interpretation of an existing law which creates a federal regulation on AI (likely through the FCC), preventing states from regulating them.


Unless there’s drama in my updates I don’t particularly care too much about drama.


Someone should make a programming language like Rust, but that doesn’t crash.

iPhone notification summaries were made with GPT3.5 I believe (maybe even the -turbo version).
It doesn’t use reasoning and so when using very short outputs it can produce wild variations since there are not a lot of previous tokens in order to direct the LLM into the appropriate direction in kv-space and so you’re more at the whims of temperature setting (randomly selecting the next token from a SOFTMAX’d list which was output from the LLM).
You can take those same messages and plug them into a good model and get much higher quality results. But good models are expensive and Apple is, for some reason, going for the budget option.


Anyone learning a new language massively benefits from being able to speak with native speakers.
That being said, LLMs are better at languages and translation tasks than any pretty much anything else. If you need vocabulary help or have difficulty with grammar they’re incredibly helpful (vs Googling and hoping someone had the same issue and posted about it on Reddit).
I mean, if you can afford a native speaker tutor that is the superior choice. But, for the average person, an LLM is a massive improvement over trying to learn via YouTube or apps.


Thanks a ton, saves me having to navigate the slopped up search results (‘AI’ as a search term is SEOd to death and back a few times)
I dunno what card you have now, but hybrid CPU+GPU inference is the trend days.
That system has the 3080 12GB and 64GB RAM but I have another 2 slots so I could go up to 128GB. I don’t doubt that there’s a GLM quant model that’ll work.
Is ollama for hosting the models and LM Studio for chatbot work still the way to go? Doesn’t seem like there’s much to improve in that area once there’s software that does the thing.


Yeah, you do want more contextual intelligence than an 8B for this.
Oh yeah, I’m sure. I may peek at it this weekend. I’m trying to decide if Santa is going to bring me a new graphics card, so I need to see what the price:performance curve looks like.
Massive understatement!
I think I stopped actively using image generation a little bit after LoRAs and IP Adapters were invented. I was trying to edit a video (random meme gif) to change the people in the meme to have the faces of my family, but it was very hard to have consistency between frames. Since there is generated video, it seems like someone solved this problem.
Yeah but it feels a little more scummy when it’s Visa, Mastercard and American Express
