  Lol. What do we think with?

  Does it not? Show me how

  Can you affirm that what a human brain does to understand language is so different to what an LLM does?

  Well, yeah. Humans have these pescy things like concepts, consciousness and thinking above language level. So pesky (sarcasm)

  I sent Apple to hell because of dumb “you can’t change UI to your liking”, guess Google is next

  *yes, this was seen miles away. I work with a laptop most of the time, so phone doesn’t matter much for me, apart of a box that rings a few times a year

  **Yes, both companies are run by greedy dumbfucks. I am getting tired and angry that finding companies that are different takes actual dedication. It should not be this way

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨YSK that "AI" in itself is highly unspecific term⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Great point, thank you:)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨YSK that "AI" in itself is highly unspecific term⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  So… not intelligent. In the sense that when someone without enough knowledge of computers and/or LLMs hears “LLM is intelligent” and sees “an LLM tells me X”, they will be likely to believe that X is true, and not without a reason. Exactly this is my main reason against all the use of intelligence-related terms. When spoken by knowledgeable people who do know the difference - yeah, I am all for that. But first we need to cut the crap of advertisement and hype

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨We need to start calling it Simulater Intelligence (SI): here's why:⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Well, if we are not looking at all the disaster the hype is doing on so many levels (which is fine in the sense that technology and fools are different things), I draw the line at… intelligence, not simulation of hardware. I care lot less if something before me runs on carbon, metal or, say, sulfur than I care if it is intelligent

  And as someone has already pointed out, even defining intelligence is damn hard, and different intelligence works differently (someone who is great at moving their body, like dancers or martial artists, is definitely more intelligent than me in quite a few areas, even if I know math or computers better than tem. So… “artificial intelligence” as a bunch of algorithms (including LLM) etc - no problem with me, “artificial intelligence” as “this thing is thinking” or “this thing is just as good as an artist/doctor/lawyer as a human” - nah, bullshit

  Fuck. Sorry to hear. Though that means all this ai bullshit won’t drown you, since you are after actual knowledge and skill. And if this makes any difference, I for one wish your life to be as sparing as it can possibly get

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Companies That Tried to Save Money With AI Are Now Spending a Fortune Hiring People to Fix Its Mistakes⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Hey there. Of course, I am in no position to say “do this, and it will be all right”, but I will say that if there is any other way to live that won’t put this kind of load on you - do it. You being happier is way way more needed in this world than you getting those certificates

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The signatures are still coming and it's already making an impact⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah… The abstract (sorry, will read article a bit later) is bunch of nonsense to me (in respect to what is written, no offense to you):

  • online experience commercially viable? The fuck they are talking about? Yeah, I know what is meant, but they would get fucking F in school for expressing thoughts in such a nonsensical way

  • protections against illegal content would not exist on private servers? Really? Like only your company’s servers can run that? What, you write them in machine code directly? Or is it all done manually? Anyhow, just release source code and it will be up to community to find a way to make it run

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The signatures are still coming and it's already making an impact⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Developer choice, ha-ha, very funny. I am not familiar with the industry and still feel safe to bet most of them just want to get enough money for doing what they can do without too much stress/disgust and also most of them don’t have a desire to see their work die just because some manager decided it is time to make some other games instead

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨NVIDIA is full of shit⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  The studio has done a great job. You most certainly have heard it already, but I am willing to say it again: the game is worth playing with whatever quality you can afford, save stutter-level low fps - the story is so touching it outplays graphics completely (though I do share the desire to play it on ultra settings - will do one day myself)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Can it take months to get over being laid off?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ll add another voice to the choir: yes, something else is going on. Before you get a breakdown, do look for a good therapist and most importantly do take a look at what really matters to you. If you are not doing something that really matters to you (this need not necessarily be your job), depression will come

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The balance of security and privacy sounds weird when privacy IS security.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Not exactly, but security as in “let us pass a law that makes end-to-end encryption in messengers illegal” can go and fuck right off

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨just beat it⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I think I’ve got your point: that’s not whar we call sound, but yes, the showel and casing will reverberate

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨just beat it⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  So, ultra-not-sound. Thank you, o wise one (/s, of course)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨just beat it⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  No, there is a well-known experiment: take something that produces sound, put in a glass, suck air out. Won’t hear a thing

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨just beat it⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It does (ok, one catch: if there’s an atmosphere), sound has physical nature. The trick is in asking whether music/art/languages exist after any sentient life is gone
