How did they find two dudes that look exactly the same?
- Comment on AI slop farms are churning out fake heartwarming videos about Trump figures. 2 weeks ago:
Found it, for anyone reading don’t bother. It’s still images with an AI voiceover. I was hoping for half baked AI generated video.

Anyone have a link to the video? Looking for a good laugh.

This comment actually perfectly encapsulates how the US has got to the point that it’s at today.
- Comment on Meta whistleblower Sarah Wynn-Williams says company targeted ads at teens based on their ‘emotional state’ 2 weeks ago:
Ah yes having to lick the boot of an autocrat with no freedom to dissent. That sure sounds like working to me.
- Comment on Switch 2 GameCube controller will only be offered to those who pre-order the console 2 weeks ago:
They must enter a unique switch serial number (that corresponds with inventory) to make the purchase? Don’t see why it has to be contigent on a subscription.
- Comment on Anthropic has developed an AI 'brain scanner' to understand how LLMs work and it turns out the reason why chatbots are terrible at simple math and hallucinate is weirder than you thought 3 weeks ago:
This is what the ARC-AGI test by Chollet has also shows regarding current AI / LLMs. They have a tendency to approach problems with this trial and error method and can be extremely inefficient (in their current form) with anything involving abstract / deductive reasoning.
Most LLMs do terribly at the test with the most recent breakthrough being with reasoning models. But even the reasoning models struggle.
ARC-AGI is simple, but it demands a keen sense of perception and, in some sense, judgment. It consists of a series of incomplete grids that the test-taker must color in based on the rules they deduce from a few examples; one might, for instance, see a sequence of images and observe that a blue tile is always surrounded by orange tiles, then complete the next picture accordingly. It’s not so different from paint by numbers.
The test has long seemed intractable to major AI companies. GPT-4, which OpenAI boasted in 2023 had “advanced reasoning capabilities,” didn’t do much better than the zero percent earned by its predecessor. A year later, GPT-4o, which the start-up marketed as displaying “text, reasoning, and coding intelligence,” achieved only 5 percent. Gemini 1.5 and Claude 3.7, flagship models from Google and Anthropic, achieved 5 and 14 percent, respectively.
- Comment on Sen. Schumer: 'My Job is to Keep the Left Pro-Israel' 4 weeks ago:
Israel’s 1948 Declaration of Independence states the nation was founded on the “national and historic right of the Jewish people”
Israel’s 2018 Basic Law constitutionally enshrined the state as the "nation-state of the Jewish people. " granting exclusive national self-determination to Jews, prioritize Jewish settlement as a “national value”, designate Hebrew as the sole official language (with Arabic demoted to “special status”), affirm Jerusalem as the capital, and guarantee Jewish immigration rights
This may be why people conflate the two.
- Comment on Why do i see so many americans obsessed with the concept of "this is a thing that [Ethnicity] does" 1 month ago:
US compartmentalizes based on race. It’s apparent in essentially all of the media they export to the rest of the world.
- Comment on Why do most Americans use an iPhone? 1 month ago:
Eh you can achieve similar or greater privacy on a Android phone simply because it’s not locked down in the way an iPhone is.
- Comment on Why do most Americans use an iPhone? 1 month ago:
Surely that’s not a uniquely American phenomenon.
- Comment on Why do most Americans use an iPhone? 1 month ago:
They used to innovate, no doubt. But their products provide absolutely terrible value now. Great resale, sure. But you’re overpaying 20-30% for the hardware you’re getting which is not the case on the Android side. The only thing iPhone universally does better is 1) video and 2) ecosystem (if all your products are Apple). The rest is tomaeto vs tomahto situation.
