I agree somewhat but it’s not like they were bringing newcomers into the cause, this account was posting rage bait for already entrenched MAGAts, the more time they spend inside staring at fake boobs the less time they’ll spend shooting people
Hey, they’d have to pay a person in the third world $5 a year to do that, do you think they’re made of money?
So should you avoid having kids with someone you look similar too then? Like is it that the virtual twins have genetic similarities akin to 3rd cousins or siblings…
If I steal someone else’s song and put my name on it nobody reasonable would say I made it.
People were saying the same thing about sampling in hip hop. Yeah if you do a 1 to 1 copy of a song then that’s not making art but if you take elements from a song and rearrange them then that is.
Also if the AI bubble does pop and they have to liquidate all these data centers, that’s less stuff for us to buy on the fire sale
LLMs being the most visible part of AI after over 75 years of AI, isn’t because they’re the biggest or latest or greatest or whatever, it’s marketing. Plain and simple marketing.
Probably more that it’s the only AI normal people will interact with regularly. Your average person isn’t going to run a protein folding application, but they will probably talk to chatgpt or use Google AI summaries.
Bitcoin finely found a use case that’s not crime. Take that crypto haters.
Nah, they’d gladly prevent trans women , who they view as men, from getting gender affirming care. They would try to prevent this on the same grounds of “it’s not natural to mess with people’s hormones”
Echoing back “I am alive” isn’t on the same level as saying “find a vulnerability” and the agent finding and executing that vulnerability. One a toddler can do, the other requires a lot of technical expertise.
Ignore the “containment” framing, they made a hacking bot and it seems to actually be good at finding and exploiting vulnerabilities:
The AI model “found a 27-year-old vulnerability in OpenBSD—which has a reputation as one of the most security-hardened operating systems in the world,” the company wrote.
Dismiss this as marketing drivel all you want but hacking is just the sort of needle in a haystack problem that AI is very good at. It requires broad knowledge, a lot of cycles trying and failing, and is easily verifiable, ie. Can you execute arbitrary scripts or not. Even if this release is BS good hacking agents are bound to come eventually and we should be discussing the implications of that instead of burying our heads in the sand, pretending AI is useless and that this is all hype.
Something about hegels dialectic of the slave in there. If you offload all your tasks and responsibilities onto a slave then you become dependent on that slave so the slave now has a sort of power over you
No, you don’t need to pay attention now because of Tesla autopilot, it’ll drive for you /s
There are plenty of EVs below the median price Americans are paying for new cars ~$50k. People aren’t buying EVs because they don’t like them / the dealerships aren’t pushing them, not the price as they’re willing to shell out even more for a top of the line pickup.
It’s not fair competition if labor standards are far lower in the country being imported from.
Can someone explain to me why this is bad?
It’s a separate app so you don’t have to engage with it if you don’t want to
It’s helping people to control their experience, which IMO is a good thing
This is also probably helping with the development of the platform in general, if someone has a good UI idea but doesn’t have the technical know how to implement it, now they can. They can then test it out, refine it, share it and then maybe it gets added to the main UI. Same with feed algorithms. It makes development more bottom up.
Was it artificial scarcity or actual scarcity? Bluesky is and has been orders of magnitude larger then mastodon and scaling to that size probably takes time. If they took all the twitter refugees at once it’s probably crash the server.
Speaking as someone who just vibe coded a client for lemmy, no matter how customizable you make your UI it will not be as customizable as having an LLM edit the code directly. The UI I wanted was completely different then the scroll based UI that most current lemmy clients have so the only way to make it was through vibe coding. You can check it out at stakswipe.com and you’ll see there was no way to customize a standard scroll based interface to have the same swiping behavior.
Also customizable UIs tend to be very menu heavy, so yeah you may be able to move the like button to the top right of the post, but to do so you’ll have to navigate through three layers of menus and settings to get there. Whereas with AI you can just type " move the like button to the top right". Customizing using natural language you know is a way better experience then figuring out a bunch of configuration and templating software that’s different for each app.
The bar is so low and they still manage to limbo under it
What exactly is this for? I understand LLMs have there limits with understanding physical reality, but at least they have a use case of theoretically automating the “symbolic work” ie moving symbols around on a screen or piece of paper, that white collar workers do.
Yes it’ll never be able to cook a meal or change a lightbulb, but neither will this without a significant enhancement in robotics to embody this AI. What’s the use case? Being able to better tell you how to throw a ball then a person?
Trillion dollar military budget and can’t even feed our troops. Those bomb companies really know how to squeeze us for every last drop.
