  • The whole point of AI hate anyway is that there is physically no world in which this happens. Any LLM we have now, no matter how much power we give it, is incapable of abstract thought or especially self-interest. It’s just a larger and larger chatbot that would not be able to adapt to all of the systems it would have to infiltrate, let alone have the impetus to do so.









  • Sorry, but it’s more like a crab apple.

    It looks like an apple, it’s presented like an apple, it’s advertised like an apple because that is what makes the YouTuber money. But scientific methods and standards exist for a reason. It’s very easy to produce bad data and especially easy to extract bad conclusions from data if you have an incentive to do so (such as a fan base who might engage with the video less if the conclusions were against their expectations)

    There’s a chance that this guy’s conclusions reflect what a proper study might have found, but it’s just too hard to tell if it’s a crab apple or not it’s essentially probably a little better than chance.






  • Blades in the dark and other forged in the dark systems are famous for being an early breakout in RPG game design. I’ve run a blades in the dark campaign and it was awesome.

    Check out the YouTube channel “Quinns Quest” and I’m confident you can comfortably try any game he has reviewed to get a better roleplaying experience than D&D.

    Maybe people should just stop playing D&D. It’s a game mired in ancient game design and forced through a cheese grater of updates over the years to try and make it OK.

    Also it’s owned by Hasbro.

    There are dozens of better role playing games. Some identical to D&D with better rules, others excellent with imaginative worlds that aren’t just rehashes of lord of the rings and Arthurian legends.


  • Yeah for real, what does this mean exactly? All forms of machine learning? That’s a lot of computers at this moment, it’s just we only colloquially call the chat bot versions “AI”. But even that gets vague do reactive video game NPCs get counted as “AI?” Or all of our search algorithms and spell check programs?

    At that point what’s the point? The disclosure would become as meaningless as websites asking for cookies or the number of things known to cause cancer in the state of California.
