  Hard agree in every point

  Sounds scary. I read a story the other day about a dude who really got himself a discord server with chatbots, and that was his main place of “communicating” and “socializing”

  Redditor as “a person active on Reddit”? I don’t see where I was talking about humans. Or am I misunderstanding the question?

  It doesn’t, who the hell cares if someone allowed it to break “predict whole text” into "predict part by part, and then “with rhyme, we start at the end”. Sounds like a naive (not as in “simplistic”, but as “most straightforward”) way to code this, so given the task to write an automatic poetry producer, I would start with something similar. The whole thing still stands as fancy auto-complete

  Well, if a company has 500 machines and all of them having microsoft online accounts raises no security questions, I ain’t working there, simple as that

  Lol. Be my guest and knock yourself out, dreaming you know things

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Something Bizarre Is Happening to People Who Use ChatGPT a Lot⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ll bait. Let’s think: -there are three humans who are 98% right about what they say, and where they know they might be wrong, they indicate it

  • now there is an llm (fuck capitalization, I hate the ways they are shoved everywhere that much) trained on their output
  • now llm is asked about the topic and computes the answer string

  By definition that answer string can contain all the probably-wrong things without proper indicators (“might”, “under such and such circumstances” etc)

  If you want to say 40% wrong llm means 40% wrong sources, prove me wrong

  I have a new word for you: information

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If we need a common enemy for people to get along then society has already failed⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Bonus point: now look at how old humanity is. The Greek civilization, the Chinese, the Egypt… literally empires have come and gone, yet humans are just as dumb as thousands of years ago

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If we need a common enemy for people to get along then society has already failed⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  How so?

  Unless your “enemy” is “anything that most people see as a source of suffering/pain/other kind of unpleasantness”, I do not see how your statement can be true. And even then in is still a dumb way to exist

  Time to turn inside. Whatever around you gets fucked, essentially no one can order you “be miserable”. If this one thing gets fixed a hundred percent your way, the rest is just a question of what you can do and how much of that you are willing to do

  But does it seem a very long road to become fully in control of own interiority.

  I did not come up with this on my own, just picked if uo from someone else, but can’t argue with it

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Not to argue, just a bit of self-humour:

  And I am doomed because I enjoy it. To hell with all the GUI open-settings-then-a-tab-in-it-and-down-to-rabbit-hole-of-tabs-and-setting-sub-windows, just give me plain damn config file. Also, praise be to people who write where the program looks for config files and what can supercede what in man entries

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I feel my life is empty. Is there any way to stop this?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Been around there, it really is not a good place. Time to look inside. You only have so much time left to live, and only so much energy to do things. As to what can be done, then if possible, take a good break: quit job, buy food, then just stay home. No books, no TV, no speaking to anyone, no internet, no games, no nothing. Your mind will go wild for some time, but then you will recover and see life with more clarity

  And for the big picture - look inside. If you were to die today, what would you do? Whom would you speak to one last time? Where would you go if distance was not an issue? What do you want to be done with your dead body? (If the answer is “nothing, I don’t care”, I would strongly suggest go see a doctor. Depression does not just go away) Also, remember this every day: tomorrow morning, you may not wake up. Today you woke up, but a day will come when you don’t. Remind this to yourself. Slowly this will change your perspective
