There is nothing I want to say that wouldn’t be illegal.

When our turn comes…

My first instinct was A, at the base of the neck. But now that I think about it I think I agree with this more. I think it could be argued that at the joint is where the neck really begins, and that the narrow part beneath that is still part of the body. And I think it would look better (and more professional!) if our weevil friend wore his tie there.

Have you ever used an LLM?

Here’s a screenshot I took after spending literally 10 minutes with chatgpt very confidently stating incorrect answers to a simple question over and over. (from this thread) Not only is it completely incapable of coming up with a very simple correct answer to a very simple question, it is completely incapable of responding in a coherent way to the fact that none of its answers are correct. Humans don’t behave this way. Nothing that understands what is being said would respond this way. It responds this way because it has no understanding of the meaning of anything that is being said. It is responding based on statistical likelihoods of words and phrases following one another, like a markov chain but slightly more advanced.

You don’t seem to have read my comment. Please address what I said.

I don’t see how it could be measured except from looking at inputs&outputs.

Okay, then consider that when you input something into an LLM and regenerate the responses a few times, it can come up with outputs of completely opposite (and equally incorrect) meaning, proving that it does not have any functional understanding of anything and instead simply outputs random noise that sometimes looks similar to what one would output if they did understand the content in question.

I think most people severely underestimate it, yeah. I was watching an anime with a British friend the other day, and he referred to an untrained civilian whiffing several close range shots with a pistol as “plot armor” on the part of the character being shot at. And I was just like “buddy you have no idea how hard that shit is” lol I almost went into a rant about how I have missed shots at exactly that range against a bigger target while under no stress and bracing the pistol against a solid object

He was involved in a single vehicle crash

Hmm, I’d have gone with “dumbass crashed his vehicle lmao” but maybe that’s why I’m not a journalist

lol we had plenty of warning, the problem is no one gave a fuck

Oh yeah, more support for genocidal racist cops, greeeeeat news

These tricks have never worked for me, I wonder if that has some implication. I can see working clocks in dreams, both the digital and analog kinds. Reflections look normal. Hell, I’ve looked directly at myself (or a doppelganger?) in dreams before.

So don’t even bother locking your front door then?

Pretty much because cops might walk in if there’s nothing physically stopping them but they’d have to do a bunch of paperwork if they smash my window to get in. In a world without cops I probably wouldn’t lock my doors.

Let’s not make it easy for the rando who doesn’t know much of anything.

When and why is “the rando who doesn’t know much of anything” accessing your home PC?

Home computer? I wouldn’t even have a password. If someone has physical access to your PC there are ways for them to get what they want no matter how strong your password is. You just need it to be secure enough to prevent specific people you know have access from getting in. Family, friends, whatever. So basically the only risk is that you use a password that they know you use because you shared an account with them or something.

Imagine trying to explain this to an alien. Two people get into the dedicated punching people in the face arena, where they then go through the ritual by which they agree that they are prepared to punch each other in the face. One punches the other in the face, who then gets upset.

That’s all well and good until there evolve predators that have complex brains and can think about how best to approach you such that you don’t know they’re there

If you think just running away from predators you see and otherwise putting absolutely no thought into the existence of predators is sufficient you would not last long in the wild lol

Me. I’ll play Wilson. Listen idk what the fuck that last guy was doing but my take on this character is gonna be a hit, you’ll see

Of course they can? They’re animals? They have brains? They need to think strategically in order to survive attacks by predators in the wild???

Do people really think that horses are just here to get humans around faster and that there’s nothing going on in there?

reddit bros would literally rather believe they slipped through the cracks in reality than that they misremembered one word for its synonym
