  1 billion dollars with a side of 1 trillion dollars, next question

  Well, that’s not very open of OpenAI

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Please defederate from threads.net⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t quite understand, would it be harder to defederate later, once they start becoming evil? Lemmy and Mastodon were founded to actively distance ourselves from the likes of Twitter and Reddit. We’re not here because it’s the only option we have or because we’re creating a whole new system. We’re here because we chose to and decide that we could live without relying on those big corporations. Surely, people here are more willing to give Meta the middle finger and wouldn’t mind blocking Threads if that ever happened right?

  Let’s just hope they don’t start injecting their ads into the video stream itself

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Reddit is testing verification labels for brands⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I wonder how it’ll work on sites like Reddit. Imagine paying for verification only to get downvoted and "silence brand"ed by people

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The Fall of Stack Overflow⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I can think of four aspects needed to emulate human response: basic knowledge on various topics, logical reasoning, contextual memory, and ability to communicate; and ChatGPT seems to possess all four to a certain degree.

  Regardless of what you think is or isn’t intelligent, for programming help you just need something to go through tons of text and present the information most likely to help you, maybe modify it a little to fit your context. That doesn’t sound too far fetched considering what we have today and how much information are available on the internet

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The Fall of Stack Overflow⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Does it really though? It seems to me that once you nail the general intelligence, you’ll just need to provide the supplemental information (e.g. new documentations) for it to give an accurate response.

  Bing already somewhat does this by connecting their bot to internet searches

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The Fall of Stack Overflow⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  You mean shitty code which you can just check and ask them to change in almost real time, over posting your question on SO and waiting for months for an answer?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The Fall of Stack Overflow⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Hyphen (-) means you don’t want to see this word, while words surrounded by quotes (") means you want these phrases exactly.

  Most symbols are also ignored, which is great for an average user but terrible for programmers.

  This is why I search for conflicting interests on different browsers. Have fun figuring out whether I’m actually a Lakers or Celtics fan, Google and Microsoft!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Is there even any advantage of using Chrome instead of Edge in 2023? They’re basically the same since both use Chromium and are ridden with trackers and telemetry

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Elon Musk Wants to Relive His Start-Up Days. He’s Repeating the Same Mistakes.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  holy shit, imagine spending $44 billion just to use a domain you’ve been squatting since the Netscape era

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Terrible Estate Agent Photos (badrealestate) - estate agent/realtor photos that are so bad they’re funny.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  When you have a therapy session but you ate too much Chipotle

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Charged⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Your battery charge dropped to 12%, my battery charge dropped because of lack of evidence. We are not the same

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Flag of Canada but it’s approaching you⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  How fast is Canada approaching me?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Ubisoft reportedly deleting customer accounts with purchased games if they have been inactive for too long⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  What happened to owning something you’ve paid for forever?

  These companies need to realize if they keep fucking over their paying customer, it’ll be more convenient for people to just pirate their product. At least FitGirl won’t knock on my door and demand me to delete his repack off my hard disk just because I haven’t visited his site in a while

  ‘L’ would be more fitting since that’s the only thing they’ve been taking
