  I just saw a group is going to start doing custom feeds with ads inserted. I blocked the account and every single sucker who comes in to say congrats and how excited they are about it. Fuck the lot of them. That said, that’s a third party, but also an example of what they could do.

  Marriage and kids did really help my depression. Not 100% but pretty well. I feel like I’ve accomplished many of the things in life I wanted. But it took 35 and a failed marriage to get there.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Reasoning models don't always say what they think.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Has anyone ever considered that a chain of reasoning can actually change the output? Because that is fed back into the input prompt. That’s great for math and logic problems, but I don’t think I’d trust the alignment checks.

  Even when consent is informed it can still be fucky. Do you think I want to consent to an arbitration agreement with my employer or a social media platform? Fuck no, but I want a job and interaction so I go where the money/people are. I can’t hunt around for a place that will hire me and also doesn’t have arbitration.

  Consent at the barrel of a gun, No matter how well informed, is no consent at all.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How chatbots could spark the next big mental health crisis.⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s not sentient and has no agenda. It’s fair to say suggest that advertise themselves as “AI companions” appeal to / prey on lonely people.

  It’s not a scam unless it purports to be a real person.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How chatbots could spark the next big mental health crisis.⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Note that these studies aren’t suggesting that heavy ChatGPT usage directly causes loneliness. Rather, it suggests that lonely people are more likely to seek emotional bonds with bots

  The important question here is: do lonely people seek out interaction with AI or does AI create lonely people? The article clearly acknowledges this and then treats the latter like the likely conclusion. It definitely merits greater study.

  Tweaking weights is no guarantee and can easily affect complete unrelated things.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Dad demands OpenAI delete ChatGPT’s false claim that he murdered his kids⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Sounds like a good way to get convicted of fraud to me but that’s not my area of expertise.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Dad demands OpenAI delete ChatGPT’s false claim that he murdered his kids⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  They can just put in a custom regex to filter out certain things. It’ll be a bit performative since it does nothing to stop novel misinformation, but it would prevent it from saying what it’s legally required not to say.

  Well, it wouldn’t really, it would say it and just hide it under a message saying it violates boundaries. It’s all a bunch of performative bullshit, actually.

  For example, the things it’s required not to say would actually be perfectly fine in the realm of fiction or satire or a game of Simon says, but that’ll be disallowed, as well, because the model can’t actually tell the difference.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Dad demands OpenAI delete ChatGPT’s false claim that he murdered his kids⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Right. Well if your service is a well-known bullshiter I wouldn’t give a fuck. That being said, I’d be happy to agree that AI should all be open source and self-hosted. I run local AI myself, but the quality isn’t there. I’d have to rent time on a big boy machine if the big players went away. That would be a little inconvenient because I’d want to have a whole bunch of requests queued up to use maximum power over minimum time and that’s not really how anyone uses AI.

  Maybe I could share that rental with other AI enthusiasts… hmmm.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Dad demands OpenAI delete ChatGPT’s false claim that he murdered his kids⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  That doesn’t really change anything. The internet is full of AI slip and just people outright lying. Nothing is reliable any more outside of the word of an actual expert.

  This has been happening since before Trump. Hell Trump 45 was before the wave of truly capable AI.

  AI doesn’t change this at all except people ought to know they are getting info from a bullshit source if they are getting it from AI themselves.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Dad demands OpenAI delete ChatGPT’s false claim that he murdered his kids⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Company using AI for that shit is responsible. There is no responsible way to remove a human from there process. These aren’t reasonable uses of AI no matter how bad companies want to save money by not hiring.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Dad demands OpenAI delete ChatGPT’s false claim that he murdered his kids⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Okay, so I agree with none of that, but you’re saying as long as we host our own AI or rent our own processing from the cloud we’re in the clear? I want to make sure that’s your fundamental argument because that leaves all open models in the clear and frankly I could be down with that. I like AI but I’m not a huge fan of AI companies.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Dad demands OpenAI delete ChatGPT’s false claim that he murdered his kids⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah but I can just ignore the bullets because they are nerf. And I have my own nerf guns as well.

  I mean at some point any analogy fails, but AI is nothing like a gun.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Dad demands OpenAI delete ChatGPT’s false claim that he murdered his kids⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s AI. There’s nothing to delete but the erroneous response. There is no database of facts to edit. It doesn’t know fact from fiction, and the response is also very much skewed by the context of the query. I could easily get it to say the same about nearly any random name just by asking it about a bunch of family murders and then asking about a name it doesn’t recognize. It is more likely to assume that person is in the same category as the others and if the one or more of the names have any association (real or fictional) with murder.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  If the difference between Amazon-sold product’s and third-party-sold products isn’t clear (and it isn’t) then Amazon should be held responsible. It’s like if those AT&T sales people at Costco sold you a phone that caught your face on fire, then Costco is reasonably responsible because they are lending their credibility to a negligent third party. Possible mitigated if they made a good faith effort to distance themselves from third party sellers.

  So there is some nuance to it (IMO).

  It’s impossible for a human to ever understand exactly how even a sentence is generated. It’s an unfathomable amount of math. What we can do is observe the output and create and test hypotheses.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Amazon is changing what is written in books⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Oh I didn’t think I implied that at all. Certainly didn’t mean to. I was just commenting that making cultural artifacts that can be revised into delta-based distributions instead of flat is useful for many reasons. But it’s no benefit to the corps and most users don’t care so of course it won’t happen.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Amazon is changing what is written in books⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  It would be nice if that stuff worked more like git where yeah maybe the release version gets changed but you can always work back through the history to see earlier versions.

  Not git specifically but just deltas from one version to the next instead is replacing the whole thing with a flattened text.
