The seed for the random number generator isn’t usually exposed to the user. Also the AI service providers regularly update the model and/or weights, producing different outputs.
If you are running your own LLM on your own hardware you can guarantee repeatablity, but that’s not what your average Joe does.

So far I have semi-competent voice transcription
Lucky you. When I use voice transcription my English gets automatically translated into Welsh.

Agreed. The word “patterns” is an important qualification. LLMs are great for one off tasks, but not as part of a repeatable process.

Depends on your use case. Adding 0.000001*rand() to a large number retains the functionality as a calculator.
Your argument that AI isn’t useful may be valid, but claiming that AI is not repeatable is false.

Even as a tool it lacks predictability / reproducability
If you use the same seed on the same model with the same weights you get the same results.

The Seal of Solomon = The Star of David.
- Comment on Had to look this up 1 day ago:
That’s not a star of david
The masonic seal of Solomon is directly referencing the star of David.
it wasn’t added for the film.
The location was chosen for the film and the 6 pointed star was in shot unaltered.
That’s the floor of the Freemasons Hall in London.
Its filmed in Australia House.

The films added the stereotypes. They made the goblins hooked nosed and added a Star of David decoration to the greengots bank floor.
It’s not in the books but Rowling still had huge control over the film so retains responsibility.

I certainly recognise the argument that the film was zionist propaganda. I’m just highlighting that Sandlers public zionism is quite liberal.
I’ll take a 1947 border zionist over a 2025 settler zionist any day.

On the other hand, if all zionists were like Zohan then the middle east would be a much more pleasant place.

the masses lost interest when they couldn’t just make money off a few GPUs and turned to the aforementioned shit-coins built on the Ethereum network.
Most of the shit meme coins are on Solana.

I thought similar during the GPU crypto mining phase. There’s always something blocking cheap PCs.

- Comment on FBI Tries to Unmask Owner of Infamous Archive.is Site 2 weeks ago:
The archive runs Apache Hadoop and Apache Accumulo. All data is stored on HDFS, textual content is duplicated 3 times among servers in 2 datacenters and images are duplicated 2 times. Both datacenters are in Europe, with OVH hosting at least one of them.
To avoid detection, archive.today runs via a botnet that cycles through countless IP addresses, making it quite difficult for grumpy webmasters to stop their sites getting scraped. Access to paywalled sites is through logins secured via unclear means, which need to be replenished constantly: here’s the creator asking for Instagram credentials. Finally, the serving of the website is also subject to a perpetual game of cat and mouse: “I can only predict that there will be approximately one trouble with domains per year and each fifth trouble will result in domain loss.” As of today, archive.today still works, but users are redirected to archive.md.
