Whether or not Meta wins this case, I'm never going to support any government that supports both LLMs and IP. Like we have to put up with IP despite having no clear value to a digital society but as soon as it becomes inconvenient it g

Eh, not a fan of puts. It doesn't add any value over write or printf and it should be named "printLine". But if you're still using raw libc in 2025 that's a problem you willingly opted into. I have zero sympathy.

I don't the US government is representative of any kind of advisable behavior. Perhaps if they weren't doing stuff that makes people want to murder them we wouldn't have to light piles of cash on fire to protect the perpetrat

Are the apps usable? The jargon seems intentionally impenetrable. The editor of that document should be shot every time they used an acronym. Like i get the DOD is a profitable dick to suck but this is just embarrassing for a document inten

I don't think diplomas have mattered for decades, at least in tech. Let's not pretend anything improved with the introduction of chatbots. Annyway, any advantage is entirely offset by having to live in a world with LLMs. I'd

Apprentices were supported, tho. We just chuck kids out in the cold with college debt and hope they survive with little reason to think they will.

Ooh ranked gaming, too. Also any kind of market activity.

Why haven't people bludgeoned them into opening their software if its so useful? This is inevitable; in fact you could measure the long-term efficiency of an industry by how quickly this happens. Movie studios are famously bad at spend

Ok, sure. In neither case was such a world a product of imagination.

I can't read the tone of this post, but "AI" as it stands as a marketing term for the last ~45 years has little to do with rigor. These are workers producing profit, not scientists. Ethics has nothing to do with it. Scientist

> If all we were interested in was moving the weights around, you’d be right to use a tool to help you. Does the use of a quantifiable metric like a GPA not exacerbate this? In a world where people take a GPA seriously, you'd have t

For those completely lost on what MCP means: https://www.anthropic.com/news/model-context-protocol It's not clear what benefit or use this is intended to provide (presumably they would have detailed its functiona

Yea but the world they created wasn't one anyone wanted or asked for any more than our own reality caters to us; it is intended to portray life as it was in the nineties. To accept this as ideal is to accept that we currently live in a

Do you have the link to this alleged government-produced e2e software so we can inspect ourselves? I realize they have an incentive to appear incompetent, but surely there must be evidence (further than your testimony) of such gossip poppi

Planning for and expecting are not the same thing. This is just a bad-faith interpretation.

Tbh, I am surprised this isn't possible. One would assume sampling a signal is the fundamental property of working with hardware.

Well yea as soon as someone starts acting like humans communicate well, let alone the mind-reading behavior you're describing, I'm completely lost.

Sorry, which points did you find contradictory?

by Mbwagava 1y ago
Yea but you'd need some sort of argument why class intersects with how archers are characterized when they are. At best I think you might say "we don't know".

It's not even clear "superintelligence" is a meaningful concept. It could be that the broad conflicts in our society are largely intractable and arbitrary, in which case "superintelligence" can do little but complai

You can turn off message disappearance with the app store app so this seems like a red herring.

How does this happen when signal itself is open source?

Unbiased seems like a pipe-dream. Unbiased between which perspectives? Would the set of perspectives chosen not be de-facto bias?

I suppose spell checking is a sort of literal error correction. Of course this does require a correct list of words and misspellings to not be on that list.

At some point we just need to acknowledge that such speculation is like asking for a magic genie in a bottle rather than discussing literal technology.

It is the natural progression of trying to figure out how to slow down computation without providing additional value.

I don't think this is as crazy as it first looks. For instance our values are largely arbitrary. Perhaps you can justify them with rationality, but generally "don't hurt people unnecessarily" seems like something I'
