Actual lizards would do a better job than a number of governments I can think of.

Some things ought not be meddled with.

I hope to have to use this information someday.

While it is commonly believed that there is only one correct way impale a human, the author here contemplates several alternatives.

It’s not cowardice, it’s intentional. He wants a timeline where techno-lords with divine authority oversee their vassal states and nations are a thing of the past. Bending over for a fascist party is the fastest way to get there.

You can put videos in a text thread. I’m on a 31-person thread that has been active for about 15 years. I promise there’s no shortage of videos.

Try to get them to text them instead. Giant family text chains are a lot more fun (and chaotic) than generic social media.

thanks, fixed.

Lol, but there are lots of applications for nondeterministic computing that are not LLMs. Some of the famous-y ones would be like Monte Carlo Tree Search (MCTS), which is used in reinforcement learning (e.g., AlphaGo) to explore game trees probabilistically, Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC), where you use randomness to sample from complex distributions (e.g., Bayesian inference), and zero-knowledge proofs, where you use randomness to verify information without revealing it. You could probably get an LLM to make a longer list :)

This is it literally. (granted I’m sure there are other use cases, but you know they’re following those AI-dollars)

I’m still using that mouse, with a 9-pin to ps2 and a ps2 to usb

it’s just practice.

At least you tried.

I’m down. We should invite some of the solarpunk instance guys.

Damn I’ve only tried 1 out of 6, no wonder I feel terrible.

Ok reading a little more the class has been certified but it hasn’t gone to trial, so there’s still a possibility of a closed-door settlement of some sort, though given the number of parties involved that seems unlikely. Maybe I’m just being optimistic. But if it goes to trial and makes it to judgement there will either have to be cases where using copyrighted materials to train AI (which seriously how is that not for generating derivative works) is found to be ok, or copyright will be held sacrosanct and the whole gen AI industry will have to pay… something. Punitive damages would make the industry cease to exist overnight, and I’d bet most publishers would prefer a check instead.

It has to set some precedent though. Either there are valid reasons to violate copyright are there aren’t.

Man these political compass charts get weirder and weirder.
