I dont think so. Admittedtly I live in a peculiar bubble (mix of scientists, artists and programmers) but nobody that I know personally talks about chatbots in neutral terms, let alone in favorable ones. If we take chatgpt and the ones from

Quoting a chatbot in an article that is not related to a chatbot felt offputting and weird. I had to stop reading, because it somehow undermined any interest i had in the article

difficulties in life and genetics are more of a reason to decelop a severe addiction. Quality is probably not so much of importance - people still smoke cigarettes and drink alcohol. It feels like we forgot about the opiod epidemic, meth, c

Easy and rather unending access to drugs is not that hard to achieve. One might even argue it is easier to achieve as a poor person. Besides what is a party related disease? Something like an STD, or more akin to a manic episode Cancer, str

I'd wager it is the strongest. Most of the arguments always argue in quantities. So and so much of energy waster per hour, this many job losses and that growing trend of delusions supported by LLMs. We've already seen it with clim

I checked the BlEU-Score and Perplexity of popular models and both have stagnated around 2021. As a disclaimer this was a cursory check and I didn't dive into the details of how individuals scores were evaluated.

I'm not sure what your comment is trying to convey. From my experience Meditations is basic and doesn't offer any substance. Popular Stoicism has a lot of legitimate criticism and is very often misused and glamorized in right-wing

How "subtle and insidious" is it really? I'd say it is shifting the blame of personal responsability to a website. Me and some of my friends use(d) 4chan and we never fell into the pipeline. To the contrary there is a strong

4chan and I'm not ashamed of it. Even though it is anonymous you really feel a sense of community. Approach it as a creative writing exercise or as being part of a hive-mind and you'll find enjoyment in it. The amount of authentic

I beg to differ, I was interested and looked at flux pro. The rendering is impressive and looks like the output of a larger organization or a dedicated professional. But it's just that. It feels a bit like most people don't reall

Just the first few notes conjure an image of a slimebag. That kind of person that is only attentive if there is a personal gain to be made. Sometimes they're astoundingly obvious and oblivious to the obviousness. I wonder why that is?

We have to look not far from our own field to see a replication crisis brewing. The results in ML papers are obviously moving in the same direction, all while beating SOTA by miniscule amounts. IMO psychology became a lot less interesting w

Correct me if I'm misunderstanding, you're putting forward the notion that the human mind is reducible to matrix-multiplications and gradient descent. This seems like such a strong claim, that I shouldn't be the one arguing f

Very human, why should I trust some matrix-multiplication and gradient descent on deeply personal questions. For sure that guy in the mirror looks amicable, but you don't get much out of it when trying to flirt with a mirror. I have to

It is very hard to ignore the instinct of replying to the toxic statement with a sarcastic "no u". Nevertheless I'll try to put this in neutral terms. Hopefully I get my point across without sounding too punchy. I'm at w

News of a bad thing happening to someone far away does not really impact survival as well. The point was not about providing a good counter-example. I wanted to show that when one hand-waves away a behavoiur to an abstract selection criteri

We were also primed to seek comfort and stability. Because that ensured survival. Like OOP said, that was a surface level thought. Finding evidence in evolutionary psychology seems like a big leap from that.
