I’ve been noticing a disturbing trend lately, and I wonder if the way these headlines are written is feeding it: creationist articles have been slipping into my science news feed, usually riffing off whatever bullshit alarmist/exaggerated headlines spread through the popsci realm the day before.
If you don’t know what you’re looking at (and most people don’t), you’ll wind up reading creationist propaganda when you think you’re reading a science article.
The guys at Knowledge Fight have talked about buying it. Your suggestion seems like something they might do.
Are you me?
Maybe… oO
In an infinite universe, can we even be sure we exist at all?
On a more serious note, I dunno if you take yours off periodically to clean the gaps beneath it, but if you do, I highly recommend using a bit of that white plumber’s tape (I think it’s Teflon tape?) to wrap the threads when re-installing it. This prevents any leaks from that connection. I don’t trust my own abilities and this stops me from worrying about it.
Have you tried doing this? I have, for *nearly a year, on the more ‘advanced’ pro versions. Yes, it will apologise and try again – and it gets progressively worse over time. There’s been a marked degradation as it progresses, and all the models are worse now at maintaining context and not hallucinating than they were several months ago.
LLMs aren’t the kind of AI that can evaluate themselves and improve like you’re suggesting. Their logic just doesn’t work like that. A true AI will come from an entirely different type of model, not from LLMs.
e: time. Wow, where did this year go?
I couldn’t live without my $40 bidet. It was super easy to install (took about 10 minutes & my own clumsy DiY skills), and I get a nice nether-shower many times a day. The only drawback is how gross it now feels to use public facilities.
Slotted spoons don’t hold much soup.
The possibilities are endless.
Piranhas have dozens of uses. Food, bait, aesthetics/decor, pranks, weapons of surprise, scissors, evil lairs…
Not with any skills he has – he’s an idiot. I just mean the money he has. He could donate billions and billions to organisations that can, and still be the richest person on the planet.
Yes, but he’s a genius at business and logistics, and several forms of transportation. It should be easy for him to solve those problems, right? (Some /s in there)
In any case, he could hire people to solve those problems if he wanted to. He’s certainly got the resources. Then again, if he approached it like his other ventures, trying to run things himself, he may only make it worse for everyone whilst doubling his own net worth.
I’ve got serious tech skills I could be using for evil.
Every day I wake up destitute, I think,
Why not. Why shouldn’t I create a fully automated ecommerce site dropshipping AI trash to Etsy & elsewhere? Hell, why not start a cult? I can at least source cheap FlavorAid.
There’s a difference between the people who have served and the insane asylum they were subjected to. There are plenty of things that meat factory does to people that shouldn’t be replicated in society, and this is the least of them.
Elon could single-handedly end world hunger. But he doesn’t.
Money hoarding is obscene. And worshipping money hoarders is gross.
Where d I got karma???
What did they say? This place has gone to shit.
I do, too, and alongside that are articles about how new discoveries in cosmology are upending all of science, and alongside those, thinly veiled creationist articles about how that means science has been totally wrong all along, therefore god. The Hubble tension has spawned a lot of these, with at least one article in my feed per day from the Discovery Institute and the like.
e: articles like these:
Were We Made to Make Black Holes? Sept 2024 (Evolution News is part of the Discovery Institute)
The “Hubble Tension” and the Big Bang
