AI Training, compared to crypto, has at least been used in medicine to:
Create novel proteins based on specific requirements (useful for developing medicine): www.cell.com/chem/fulltext/S2451-9294(23)00139-0?…
Detect possible cancer: hms.harvard.edu/…/new-artificial-intelligence-too….
And there’s many more uses you can easily find if you look into it. Don’t just assume every LLM slop is all what AI is. Even LLMs probably have their use in stuff actually relating to language, such as translation.
- Comment on Lemmy votes ARE public, should they be anonymous? 2 months ago:
okay but you make posts with the expectation they are public. Votes only change a number, and are a way for you to show support/disagreement for something without broadcasting it to everyone.
If you want to broadcast it and make it public you can reply to a comment

With this attitude there is no way in hell you should or could be the leading authority on human conversation.
It’s called social anxiety. I’m so sorry someone being anxious is inconvenient to you.
Have you considered not commenting?

yeah i was mostly just thinking how stupid it is to vote for starfield as “most innovative gameplay”

gamers will use what little voice they have to place the spotlight on a shit game and giving it an award, getting people to buy that game. Holy shit this is stupid
I’d rather see “gamers” vote for actual good and fitting games for these awards, starving shit games from any attention and money.

- Comment on Peter Higgs, physicist who theorised Higgs boson, dies aged 94 7 months ago:
My perspective is that someone’s opinion is to be heard even if they have no expertise in a field. I am not saying their opinion should be more valued than one of an expert’s, but i am not going to criticise or disregard them completely just because their field is something else.
What I am saying is we might simply miss out on some things if not for an opinion from someone in a different field. Even if that opinion is insane 90%, it might give us a push in a direction we haven’t considered before. A biologist, a chemist, a physicist can look at a table and say different things about said table that hold true, without having an expertise in making tables.
- Comment on Peter Higgs, physicist who theorised Higgs boson, dies aged 94 7 months ago:
Okay but you can probably ask someone that is not a biologist to learn about certain aspects of the brain and how it works. While you can’t ask a plumber how the brain works for example, you can probably get his perspective on things related to blood flow (to some extent). Maybe you ask a chemist about certain chemicals in the brain and so on.
It might not be the best idea however to claim as a plumber that consciousmess is a series of pipes, but it’s fine to give a view of something through a different lens.
Hell, neither me or you are experts in any of this, or experts in something to do with debating scientists or socials in gneeral, but here we are giving perspectives anyway.
