It Would Be An Insane Disaster In Every Possible Way, But Christ, It’d Be So Fucking Funny If The Icon

I know it’s not hard to point out reactionaries hypocrisy when it comes to like safe spaces or hug boxes or whatever but genuinely how much of an echo chamber do you have to exist in for you to think this is a reasonable thing to say

I think(I may have invented it) I heard somewhere that originally in Matrix, the humans were going to be used more as computational power instead of just batteries, but it was deemed too complex, so they changed it to a energy thing.

Funny thing here, with the emergy needs of the 'AI' nowadays and companies dead set on continuing its development, it is now more realistic for some people to be enslaved for the energy. I imagine us in funny little bicycles directly connected to the ChatGPT servers :)

Have you read the new file? It's on nano. It's literally on vim. It's on less without editing. It's literally on Elvis. You can probably find it with grep. Dude it's on Arachnophilia. It's a Geany original. It's on sed. You can read it on sed. You can go to sed and read it. Log onto sed right now. Go to sed. Dive into sed. You can sed it. It's on sed. sed has it for you. sed has it for you.

DNI as in Documento Nacional de Identidad(Spain identity document), I presume

I just saw a DNI for "evil intentions". nobody puts up a warding talisman anymore just a fucking DNI

I think my favourite thing about Dungeon Meshi is that after each meal there is at least one shot of someone different cleaning dishes.

Fuck yeah, respomsability with their things! :)

The problem here isn’t that large language models hallucinate, lie, or misrepresent the world in some way. It’s that they are not designed to represent the world at all; instead, they are designed to convey convincing lines of text. So when they are provided with a database of some sort, they use this, in one way or another, to make their responses more convincing. But they are not in any real way attempting to convey or transmit the information in the database. As Chirag Shah and Emily Bender put it: “Nothing in the design of language models (whose training task is to predict words given context) is actually designed to handle arithmetic, temporal reasoning, etc. To the extent that they sometimes get the right answer to such questions is only because they happened to synthesize relevant strings out of what was in their training data. No reasoning is involved […] Similarly, language models are prone to making stuff up […] because they are not designed to express some underlying set of information in natural language; they are only manipulating the form of language” (Shah & Bender, 2022). These models aren’t designed to transmit information, so we shouldn’t be too surprised when their assertions turn out to be false.

ChatGPT is bullshit

Saw this post some time ago as a screenshot elsewhere and I'm so glad I found it, it is sooo great, I want to continue living my life mcgyvering out of any situation until I have little people and I con teach them that😊

my family is fucking addicted to macgyvering and it's becoming a problem. every time something in this house breaks, instead of doing the sensible thing of replacing it or calling someone qualified to fix it, we all group around the offending object with a manic look in our eyes and everyone gets a try at fixing it while being cheered on or ridiculed by the rest.

it's a beautiful bonding activity, but the "creative" fixes have turned our house into a quasihaunted escape room like contraption where everything works, but only in the wonkiest of ways. you need a huge block of iron to turn on the stove. the oven only works if a specific clock is plugged in. the bread machine has a huge wood block just stapled to it that has become foundational to its function. sometimes when you use the toaster the doorbell rings. and that's just the kitchen.

it's all fun and games until you have guests over and you have to lay out the rules of the house like it's a fucking board game. welcome to the beautiful guest room. don't pull out the couch yourself you need a screwdriver for that, and that metal rod makes the lamp work so don't move it. it also made me a terrifying roommate in college, because it makes me think i can fix anything with enough hubris and a drill. you want to call the landlord about a leaky faucet? as if. one time my dad made me install a new power socket because we ran our of extension cords
