Going from, i will not make any more political statements to

I lean left on some issues, and right on other issues

Is funny, also which issues, come on be specific.

I remember boten anna as a tech song example

The issue is (as I’ve said before) that we’ve essentially created a computer program that is just as fallible as humans.

Id say it is worse, as we have more physical presence. We can think it rains, look outside and realize somebody is spraying water on the windows and we were wrong. The LLM can only react to input, and after a correction will apologize, and then you have a high chance it will still talk about how it rains.

We can also actually count and actually understand things, and not just predict what the next most likely word is.

But yes, I don’t get from a security perspective people include LLMs in things, also with the whole data flows back into the LLM thing for training a lot of the LLM providers are prob doing.

It was all a long time ago. In the time of myth and legend. When the mastodons roamed reddit.

What they promise: intelligence systems, revolutionary agent which can take over tasks!

There is a computer scientists who reads that posts and looks back at his 40 year long career in writing formal logic systems and he is now crying.

As the underlying tech seems to be based on neural networks, we can guarantee they are not thinking like this at all and are just writing fanfiction. (I love the ‘did I miscount’ step, for the love of god LLM, just use std::count).

Sorry I and some others missed this post talking about the tweet so we have two top level ones atm. My more sensational post about the subject got a bit more attention. So you were not late but early.

Im gonna build a special circle in hell for these people, together with the ‘yes’ or ‘ask me again later’ people. On this circle all the software your stack depends on will break your build and releases a new release every friday at 5. Whohahhahah

It remains one of those small !!fun!! facts that while Marxbro got permad for being annoying and correct about Marx, Sailer only got a temp ban while being wrong, racist but nice (he has been banned at least once, but racists play by the Tusken Raider rules if not permad)

isn’t it racist / dumb to say they have 60 IQ?

no according to Kirkegaard

Bruuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu (pause to catch breath) uh.

A well at least the mask is totally off now.

E: and a thing that has been bothering me, it is quite fucked up for somebody with Scotts education to go along with this argument about disabled people that easily.

That isn’t a bonus. He is always in the comments. <include OkayButThatsWorseYouDoGetHowThatsWorseRight.gif>

Some news on the people who own/run protonmail. They are pro Trump

Thanks!

I have not read it in ages, but did hear somebody has written something (not sure if book or play or etc) of the book from Julias perspective.

Welcome to the dropping the crypto, going openly neoreactionary (*) californian tech bro era.

(*: I don’t know if they are neoreactionary, but that is the dumbest ideology I could easily link them too)

Like every other ‘charity’, rent a room at some super expensive hotel, hire the most expensive cooks and give all your potential donors a free invite, and massive gifts.

Crying in LW

It was a stately home goddammit! Stop weakmanning meeeeeeeeee

The opening statement is also quite silly already (and makes me belief in a companion to the dead internet theory, the dementia internet theory, as I was sure we have had conversations like this as ‘the internet’ already, Zuck turning manospherian all of a sudden also makes me thing this (same with the fight over H-1B on the US right, they had that in 2018 already, Trump likes H-1B)).

We had the whole ‘they act like they are morally superior’ discussion already a lot, and that was about vegans. Only one problem, they are morally superior on almost all ethical/moral/ideological systems you can think of. Sure hedonists, stoics (who are not allowed to complain), sadists, accelerationist extinctionists, ironic nihilistic status quo pushing postmodernists, all disagree they are superior morally but who cares about the opinion of those people. Sure some of them might be annoying to people, but annoying people can be morally superior.

His statements about how politically correctness comes from the 80’s is also wrong (it predates that, and has quite a complex history of being used by various different groups for different meanings), but at that moment I knew I was going to be wasting my time reading this as I would disagree with every paragraph. (as I have seen these types of articles before, they were popular a decade ago or so).

E2: Whoops that edit should have been on a different post. E3: bonus content: Two articles sneering at Paul, Paul Graham and the Cult of the Founder and Paul Graham, proto-techbro..

With risk of falling into the ‘classify people into two binary groups’ thing which I have often criticized the Rationalist for. Move over jock vs nerd. There is Jock vs Creep.
