Agreed. But the point they’re making (wittingly or unwittingly) isn’t “they’re both directly and indirectly responsible for the rise of the surveillance state.”
The fundamental point is: “Both parties are the same because of this one issue.” And that position is reductive to the point of being indistinguishable from the positions of centrists and conservatives, both of which often prefer easy-to-digest, broad-stroke politics over wrestling with the nuances.
What a reductive thing to say.
And yet, they chose to demo a broken technology with obvious bugs and flaws. The demos from tech companies are supposed to make people excited, not recoil in disgust.
This isn’t some tiny company, either. It’s fucking nVidia, who supposedly has the money to create a good demo.
My thought, too. Guess I’ll just have to run what I’ve got until it breaks, then make my own retro handheld, because I’m not paying for cloud bullshit.
We are just pointing out that the law isn’t set in stone, yet.
Even the California one, which has already passed, is not set in stone, and Gavin Newsome passed it with instructions to fine tune the details before it goes live in 2027.
Which is fucking stupid to pass a law before it’s fully cooked, but that’s a different conversation.
I’ve been on Arch full-time for about two years, and even though I use some similar software, I’ve had to troubleshoot and do things differently from my friends for a while (installing mods manually, adding launch options to certain Steam games, using entirely different software stacks to do the same things). My brain just can’t contain troubleshooting info for both, so the Windows stuff gets lost over time as Widows becomes more buggy and stupid.
Oh, that’s an interesting way to do it. You’d probably have to have a handful of moderators each for the various comms, but it sounds like it would at least resist lazy engagement.
Set your machine to Prime95. Bake for 30min.
However, if you’re going to down vote something, have the balls to explain why.
This is why downvoting is fundamentally flawed. It could be “I don’t like it” all the way up to “I know for a fact that’s wrong,” but nobody else will ever know the rationale.
I don’t even see downvotes on my instance, and I never want to, because it just raises questions and confusion.
No. If people think em-dashes are a “surefire sign” of LLMs, they’re just as dumb as the people who take LLM output uncritically. Sometimes, you need to separate a thought with something other than a period, semicolon, or parenthesis, and a hyphen or double hyphen is simply not correct grammar. LLMs can pry my em-dashes from my cold, dead fingers.
What’s this jargle of a URL you posted?
I can’t really help my Windows friends anymore when they need troubleshooting for things like: why their audio channels aren’t working in OBS, or why their config is suddenly corrupted. I used to be able to when I was on Windows, but now I just have to watch helplessly while they struggle to make things work.
- They have a product called Cybersecurity Asset Management that these absolute geniuses named CSAM.
I noticed that, too. Like, maybe they named it before that particular acronym became infamous, but rebranding is a thing companies do all the time. They are making the choice to keep that one.
Great, when did I say otherwise? Pareidolia is a thing humans do, because we like patterns. Finding patterns is something that has benefited our species, but it is sometimes so strong that we see faces in electrical outlets or the shape of a car’s front profile (for example).
We do enjoy pareidolia, don’t we?
One in 100. However, that is simple a measure of probability, so do not expect that to always be true for every 100 prompts.
For example, if you rolled a 100-sided die 100 times, it’s possible to get a one every time. In practice, it would likely be a mix. You might have a session where you get no wrong answers and times when you get several.
The problem is that ignorant people trust these models implicitly, because they sound convincing and authoritative, and many people are not equipped to be able to vet the information being generated (also notice I didn’t say “retrieved”).
That’s what regular people never seem to understand (and the AI apologists are hoping you don’t know). These models aren’t “getting better,” they’re just filled with more reactive patches over these unintended responses. And as the models scale up, so do the holes that need patching.
It’s a never ending game of bad-prompt Whack-a-Mole, all at the cost of our environment and safety, just so the Tech Bros can try to convince venture capitalists that “AGI is definitely just around the corner, trust me, bro,” and keep that bubble filled with their own farts.
It’s still in development, so sometimes yes, sometimes no. Expect that to change and improve, however.
To what end? What’s the logical conclusion people should draw from this?
I mean, yes, but to which party do they give more? You’re essentially saying “follow the money.” Here’s where the money went in 2024. You’ll note that the top eight biggest donors gave to Republicans.
They might serve the same masters, but the masters have favorites and not by accident.
