      NGL that gif is fucking amazing, violin or not. Where do you find such wondrous things?

      • infeeeee@lemmy.zip ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

        The GIF was created by James Tyrwhitt-Drake back in 2012, when he captured the images at the University of Victoria’s Advanced Microscopy Facility and posted the final product to his Tumblog, Infinity Imagined.

        Mostly not because of the violin. Just to be clear.

    It’s time to recalibrate my gradient on the big picture.

    I’m so glad not to think or speak like these people do.

      How can I add words to this sentence without adding information?

      It is, gradient descent is what you use to find optimal model parameters. 

      the algorithm takes a step, computes a gradient (whether any nearby options are better), then moves in that direction to improve the parameters, in a loop.

        Adding to the above, one of the challenges of GD is how to know whether the global optimum reported by the function isn’t just one of its many imposters (local optima). That’s the “big picture” he’s talking about. Working with Elon was a dead end.

      Someone from a brand new account posted a bunch of gibberish like that today about having the keys to the octo-dimension mother universe…

      And I immediately thought it was an Elon AI, because that’s how they think humans actually talk

        Probably someone who booted up openclaw and gave it a lemmy account and then it likely gave away their financial information on moltbook

      It’s language for people who advertise they know something about “AI,” but couldn’t implement Llama 1 if their life depended on it.

    Most recently, xAI has come under fire after Grok began generating nonconsensual sexual images of real people in response to X user prompts.

    That’s an understatement…

      He made a CP machine.

        Please don’t use the phrase “CP” but instead the correct term ‘CSAM’.

        ‘Porn’ suggests consent

    So there’s a second person who doesn’t want to attach their name to a machine that generates child porn? Good on the guy who left.

      I guarantee you, he only did it because he thought it was a bad business deal.

        Musk has a tendency to be all up in in his people’s faces telling them what to do. I wouldn’t be surprised if they all went and formed their own company.

    It’s almost like he and his buddy don know nothing about running a business and fostering human relationships. A couple of small time Napoleons with large time capital can make quite a mess if given half a chance. And currently they are being given a whole chance.

      I workout, eat healthy, avoid alcohol and drugs all in an effort to live long enough to see these assholes punished somehow, someway.

    • D_C@sh.itjust.works ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

      That will never happen. For these people “being poor” still means having a shit ton of cash.
      All muskyboy’s companies could collapse today and he’d still have millions and millions in a bank somewhere.

      The only way this person, and billionaires like him, will feel any consequences is if they are dragged to a fucking guillotine and served justice medieval style.

        Guillotine was a renaissance thing really. In medieval times they were more into the gallows.

      Thats… not really on the cards.

      source
      • givesomefucks@lemmy.world ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

        The answer is when enough people get tired of them hoarding everything…

        Gluttony was always greed, and the stories about dragons sleeping on gold were just allegories for people like Elmo.

        We need to stop acting like this is a new problem and we don’t know how to fix it.

        It’s human variation, some people are wired to do anything for as many resources as possible. Which is fine as long as we get them treatment instead of giving them the keys to the planet.

        All we gotta do is stopping letting the wealthy make all the decisions, because they’ll keep deciding that they should have more of the money.
