Humans have the ability to actually think.

That’s a stretch for an inordinate number of humans, sadly.

I still think it’s funny that he went from working at Valve as their Economist in residence studying digital markets to being the finance minister of Greece. I think the Valve job was more prestigious, especially since the rest of the EU was committed to fucking over Greece at the time.

To be fair, you can’t control what humans optimize what you’re trying to teach them either. A lot of times they learn the opposite of what you’re trying to teach them. I’ve said it before but all they managed to do with LLMs is make a computer that’s just as unreliable (if not moreso) than your below-average human.

you’ll give up your PC to rent one from the cloud

Not just actors but one of their best writers.

He is proof that even right wing dipshits can be funny.

I think that’s a fair take, but I believe the person you’re replying to was more looking at how the US under Trump is currently saber rattling with:

• Greenland
• Venezuela
• Mexico
• Canada
• Iran

While it would be one thing if the US was only saber rattling with Canada, but they’re actively courting wars with up to five different nations, including one in the Eastern hemisphere, all at once. I believe the point they were making is that it would be impossible for the US to handle all those wars, even if it’s conceivable that they could invade and take over Canada alone. Greenland is being actively threatened to the point that NATO soldiers are being sent there, Canada is not being actively threatened in the same way. Mexico is also being threatened with military action to “stop the cartels” (which probably means just taking over the cartels).

To be fair “shortener” is a misnomer here as it can actually make a link longer in making it suspicious.

im having the time of my life with it (i am special)

Trump doesn’t care. He was rejected by neoliberal democratic world order and he wants to tear it down because of it.

It’s very much like how he was rejected by New York high society and then wanted to destroy NY high society for being rejected.

He is a fucking simpleton and doesn’t care how many die in justifying his petty grievances.

Thirty Helens agree that Trump is a tinpot dictator intent on invading sovereign allied nations.

Some people just want to watch the world burn.

Shut the front door!

In a lot of situations it’s actually bad to use sudo because it can impact settings that make programs or file ownership go to root instead of the user.

However, when testing the models in a set of scenarios that the authors said were “representative” of real uses of ChatGPT, the intervention appeared less effective, only reducing deception rates by a factor of two. “We do not yet fully understand why a larger reduction was not observed,” wrote the researchers.

Translation: “We have no idea what the fuck we’re doing or how any of this shit actually works lol. Also we might be the ones scheming since we have vested interest in making these models sound more advanced than they actually are.”

Bezos is so out of touch it is stupid.

Is he out of touch or has he just recognized that 50% of the economic activity is already from the top 10% of the population?

I get the feeling the wealthy have just written off the bottom 90% of society and don’t actually give a flying fuck if anything works for us or not. He knows his core sales will go to people who do have fiber at their doorstep.

Maybe we’re the ones out of touch thinking they plan on having a place for us in this world at all.

I keep getting a 502 bad gateway. Even Lemmy is more stable than this.

They launched it before for influencers to join, and I’m not sure how many did.

The return of MrBabyMan

In 2019, Gates characterized his relationship with Epstein as a ‘huge mistake’.

Probably because it was the final straw for his wife Melinda, and Gates wasn’t happy how much she would take in the divorce. Considering he was a serial philanderer and often used his position at Microsoft as a way to meet women (including Melinda!), it’s not like he respected that marriage or his wife very much, so it can’t be that he’s sad about losing her or something, so my bet is on sad he was going to lose a lot of wealth over his Epstein connections.

Massgrave doesn’t work for Office I’m pretty sure.

Woosh.
