According to OpenAis internal test suite and system card, hallucination rate is about 50% and the newer the model the worse it gets.
And that fact remains unchanged on other LLM models.
- Comment on Do we have No Man's Sky fans here? 1 week ago:
I love it but the generated quests make this game boring for me.
So basically I really really really want to like this game, but I just can’t :(
(I have 200ish hours in it anyway)

- Comment on OpenAI needs to raise at least $207bn by 2030 so it can continue to lose money, HSBC estimates 4 weeks ago:
Shorting means you expect the shit to go down in value. Usually to short something you borrow a stock from someone (not everyone can borrow stocks), pay the fee to the source, sell it for 100, wait, buy it back for 90, give it back to the original owner. You made 100 - 90 - fee.
Borrow 1000 usd from a bank (1), sell if for your target currency (2) that you think will raise compares to usd, wait, exchange 1000 usd from the target currency (2) and give it back to bank + rates (1).
What is left over in currency (2) is your profit.

It’s not just finding obvious errors but it catches logical error that no human would have caught.
I’m not having the same experience.

You buy foreign currency and then sell it back for USD when you want to realise it.
- Comment on People who say 'the rich get richer, the lazy live for free, and the middle class pays for it all' don't realize how expensive it is to be rich and how close middle class is to being below the poverty line. 5 weeks ago:
When compared to other people living in vans? Absolutely.

Where is the line though
The line is “do you need to work ever to maintain at least the current living standard”. That’s the division between working class and wealthy class.
If I was to start van living (hard as I can’t drive) and rented out my house I wouldn’t have to work another day in my life
Not maintaining at least current living standard.
- Comment on Japanese court orders Cloudflare to pay $3.2 million over manga piracy 5 weeks ago:
Why not? Buying and selling stolen goods is illegal. I know it’s a hussle, but the company is rolling in money and forcing it to be bear the cost of being compliant with the law seems reasonable.
On the other hand, intellectual property and copyrights are bullshit, so I’m a bit torn.

As an European, I believe it was always only in USian minds. Noone on the continent thought so, we always saw you to be weird religious nuts who keep legal slaves to this day. Oh, and you’re warmongers.
- Comment on hmm breakfast 1 month ago:
Scrambled eggs or pancakes are the limit of the imagination I’ve seen from Italian restaurants. But most places have pastry or some variation of a sandwich that’s going to be mostly bread.
- Comment on hmm breakfast 1 month ago:
Granted, I know Italy only from a tourist perspective.
Every damn restaurant closes in the summer in the middle of the day. So do many shops.
Italy rarely have breakfast restaurants - or at least what I’d consider a breakfast restaurant. Some variations of a premade ready to go sandwich ain’t it. And the good places ain’t open in the morning, but rather during brunch hours and serve brunch/lunch more than breakfast.
brioche stuffed with ice-cream
I know you’re joking. You’re kidding, right? :)
- Comment on hmm breakfast 1 month ago:
Coffee and sweat pastry, or Coffee is something I commonly saw in Italy (and only Italy)
- Comment on hmm breakfast 1 month ago:
While we’re shitting on breakfast culture in Europe I think that Italians have the worst. They have messed up daily rhythm (siesta and then dinner late in the evening)… Actually no, that’s not an excuse. They have garbage breakfast culture, period.
Literally everyone else’s breakfasts are awesome.

I think the emphasis was on you calling it the normal town, instead of “boy town”.
Calling it “normal” and other “girl town” means that the “girl town” is abnormal.

I’m 35. Math major. Work in STEAM. Well educated.

Good advice, except that’s not a long term storage. Bit corruption is a thing.
- Comment on Wikipedia Says AI Is Causing a Dangerous Decline in Human Visitors 2 months ago:
I honestly think that LLM will result in no progress made ever in computer science.
Most past inventions and improvements were made because of necessity of how sucky computers are and how unpleasant it is to work with them (we call it “abstraction layers”). And it was mostly done on company’s dime.
Now company will prefer to produce slop because it will hope to automate slop production.

So you had nothing to say about whats wrong with planned urbanization, so you went again for a personal attack, and switching to something something about marxist or communism because… Well, honestly, I don’t know why nor do I care.
This is the only thing of value you wrote
Objectively, it was bad to build unhabitable skyskrapers.
Yes. Those few bad actors who build tofu buildings in Tukery, Greece, China, Myanmar, Bangkok, or USA (en.wikipedia.org/…/Hyatt_Regency_walkway_collapse….) or whatever are bad and did wrong. What’s your point?

Yeah, my server end with ml so I must be a tankie, makes sense.
It cannot be that I genuinely appreciate long term vision policies. I must be a tankie.
- Comment on Everyday AI looks more like the '08 housing bubble 2 months ago:
I’m sorry, I’m a little bit lost. I do agree that investment in owning rentals should be forbidden (and if city needs rental units they should be owned by the city).
I do not agree that “ghost cities” were built for speculative purposes. Speculants were buying them like crazy, yes, but the actual need for housing in regions planned (expected?) to undergo urbanization is real and the buildings were fulfilling that purpose.
- Comment on Everyday AI looks more like the '08 housing bubble 2 months ago:
There are always bad actors in the system (see: hedge funds). But bubble? It can be argued that Ordos (the ghost city) was build too early, but it’s filling in nicely. From 30k in 2009 to 2.000.000+ in 2020.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ordos_City
On the other hand noone ever build a damn whole modern city before for the people, so I’m not surprised they jumped the gun.
- Comment on Everyday AI looks more like the '08 housing bubble 2 months ago:
And the main AI companies have actual products that make money for them rolled out already. So it is not like the dot com bubble

- Comment on Steam is now blocking NSFW updates for published adult-only games, according to a raunchy RPG developer 2 months ago:
I wouldn’t really know, I live in Poland and whenever I go West I’m surprised how backward technologically it is (France, Spain, Italy, Switzerland; only Portugal seems to be modern).
Maybe not backward but lacking internet-related improvements, like being able to take care of government thingies online (I think Denmark is the best in that regard), pay using your national pay processors, get cheap internet, update your opening hours online, not take a 4h break midday… you know, common convenances.

Islam and Middle Eastern religions have been around FAR longer than any country in the west has existed.
I want to say no, because there are sheds in Scotland (~100 BC) older than Islam (~600 AD), and 600 AD in Europe we had shitton of Kingdoms etc, but maybe I didn’t understand your point? Could you explain what did you mean?
- Comment on Steam is now blocking NSFW updates for published adult-only games, according to a raunchy RPG developer 2 months ago:
I wonder if you know that both Christianity and Islam are just splinter sects of Judaism? And if you’re against Judaism, or think it’s evil or smthing, you should consider being against its spin-offs.
