• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨‘Cleaner, greener and absolute reliability’: trams make UK comeback⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Smaller batteries that can recharge a bit while the tram is at station is actually pretty cool concept that was tried several times and as far as I remember was deemed working.
  But I get your point.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨‘Cleaner, greener and absolute reliability’: trams make UK comeback⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  There are a lot of advantages of tram that you can’t eliminate no matter how much cost you cut. It’s quiet, it’s smooth, it’s electric and doesn’t need big batteries, it’s on separate tracks so it’s predictable, it’s ways easier to operate so thr drivers are easier to find.

  What made you think of this idea?

  The one where you aren’t frustrated by the usage of it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Microsoft announces new Windows changes in response to the EU's (DMA) Digital Markets Act for EEA users, including Edge not prompting users to set it as the default unless opened⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah, you need to be really brave to setup your system incorrectly.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Microsoft announces new Windows changes in response to the EU's (DMA) Digital Markets Act for EEA users, including Edge not prompting users to set it as the default unless opened⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  You’re doing something wrong, maybe ask someone knowledgeable for help with your system. It doesn’t happen to other people.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Kid gave a reasonable answer without all the math bullshit⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I love George very much, but he was a comedian, and you linked his comedy show. Brilliant, like everything he did, comedy show.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Kid gave a reasonable answer without all the math bullshit⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  You might afford too much malice to something that might be just a generational incompetence total lack of care. Smart kids don’t increase this quarter’s profits, therefore are irrelevant.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah, it’s one of those thighs that we all need to get more of, it never hurts.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The 5 stages of Charles Manson⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Obese commenter @Jimmycakes@lemmy.world with no friends and social life, who recently discovered a huge wart on his nose, and who just remembers that nobody likes him, left a comment on a post recently.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨AI is rotting your brain and making you stupid⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Oh yeah, you absolutely can test it.
  And then it gives you (and this is a real example, with real function names removed)

  find_something > dirpath
  … rm - rf $dirpath/*
  do_something_in_the_dir(dirpath)

  And it will work, but on a failure of a first question, instead of failing gracefully it wipes your hard drive clean.
  You can find shit like that on the regula Internet, but the difference is, it will be downvoted and some nerd will leave a snarky comment explaining why it’s stupid. When llm gives you that, you don’t have ways to distinguish a working code from a slow boiling trap

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨AI is rotting your brain and making you stupid⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  As with a lot of things in your life, you think you know something, but actually you don’t.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨AI is rotting your brain and making you stupid⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  You. I couldn’t avoid you. That’s what I’m mildly afraid of.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨SteamOS massively beats Windows on the Legion Go S⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Steam OS is basically Arch Linux with KDE and Steam that autoruns in their special mode. It would even be easier to setup for yourself.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨AI is rotting your brain and making you stupid⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  What’s scary is that chatbots will make more people like you.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨AI is rotting your brain and making you stupid⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I see you aren’t grasping the concept, and now are saying some random words to hide this fact. But then again, it is to be expected, we kind of started with the idea that you lack higher cognitive functions

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨AI is rotting your brain and making you stupid⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  More like how some people are afraid of needles but aren’t afraid of deadly diseases. Their primitive understanding of reality allows them to draw connection between prick and pain, but not between an invisible to the naked eye organism and a gruesome death.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨AI is rotting your brain and making you stupid⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  See, this is the problem I’m talking about. You think you can gauge if the code works or not, but even for small pieces (and in some cases, especially for small pieces) there is a world of very bad, very dangerous shit that lies between “works” and “not works”.
  And it is as dangerous when you trust it to explain something for you. It’s by definition something you don’t know therefore can’t check.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨AI is rotting your brain and making you stupid⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s not that LLM can’t know truth, that’s obvious but besides the point. Its that the user can’t really determine when the lies are, not to the degree that you can be when getting info from a human.
  So you really need to check everything, every claim, every word, every sound. You can’t assume good intentions, there are no intentions in real sence of the word, you can’t extrapolate or intrapolate. Every word of the data you’re getting might be a lie with the same certainty as any other word.
  It requires so much effort to check properly, you either skip some or spend more time that you would without the layer of lies.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨AI is rotting your brain and making you stupid⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  But like why not go to the real sorces directly in the first place? Why add unnecessary layer that doesn’t really add anything?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨AI is rotting your brain and making you stupid⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It is a big deal. There is thr whole set of ways humans can gauge validity of the info, that are perpendicular to the way we interact with fancy autocomplete.
  Every single word might be false, with no pattern to it. So if you can and do check it, you just wasting your time and humanity’s resources instead of finding the info yourself in the first place. If you don’t, or if you think you do, it’s even worse, you are being fed lies and believe them extra hard.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨AI is rotting your brain and making you stupid⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah, same. I have to learn now to learn in spite of all the old disillusioned creatures that hated their lives almost as much as they hated students.
  And yet, I’m afraid learning from chatbots might be even worse.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨AI is rotting your brain and making you stupid⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah, you know, just like my cat is scared of distant fireworks but doesn’t give a flying fuck about climate change or rise of fascism in our own country.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨AI is rotting your brain and making you stupid⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  so much of our lives is made up of people lying

  And that’s why we, as humans, know how to look for signs of this in other humans. This is the skill we have to learn precisely because of that. Not only it’s not applicable when you read the generated bullshit, it actually does the opposite.
  Some people are mistaken, some people are actively misleading, almost no one has the combination of being wrong just enough, and confident just enough, to sneak their bullshit under the bullshit detector.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨AI is rotting your brain and making you stupid⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s not normal for a teacher to get angry. Those people should be replaced by good teachers, not by a nicely-lying-to-you-bot. It’s not a jab at you, of course, but at the system.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨AI is rotting your brain and making you stupid⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  The level of psychopathy required from a human to be as blatant at lying as an llm is almost unachievable

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨AI is rotting your brain and making you stupid⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I mean, obviously, you need higher cognitive functioning for all that

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨AI is rotting your brain and making you stupid⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  You’re speedrunning Danning-Kruger with an impressive force
