Regarding programming, I would say my answer would be yes to all of your questions. I think all of those feelings and pleasures can exist simultaneously. Though, I believe you are touching on a point that is common in Buddhism. Attachment l

I have pondered whether our career/hobby will eventually be like equestrian activities. Horses or walking were basically the only options for land traversal for thousands of years. Now, horseback riding is nothing more than a hobby or

These LLMs cannot do anything I truly need like my laundry, dishes, fetching my mail, grocery shopping, cooking, etc. We've got a long way to go before I am worried.

> All the people on meds/machines start to die. The just in time food pipeline immediately empties out. Assuming those events happen in that order, then the prior might solve the latter.

I'm curious what actions the app takes once a sufficient risk has been determined? Does the app or people managing the service just send paramilitary police units to SWAT people or what? I really don't see how this much different

Pandora's box is already wide open? The lid was blown off the hinges long before AI. There were people eating Tide Pods in the 2010s. People were drinking bleach and taking Ivermectin to kill a virus about five years ago. AI, in some w

Why is that such a bad thing? Imagination is not truly useful for anything without skills to complement it, at least not in my experience.

I understand, but I don't agree the with GP's implication. I don't truly believe the opinions on Israel is enough to categorize one sub as being left or right wing. It's a delicate and highly debated topic, hence why I w

Is the topic of Israel and Palestine truly that decisive across some binary party lines? I know people with a wide range of opinions both sides. I feel like it's more loud social media echo chambers than some sort of political schism.

I can see that easily in Finder. List View or Column View displays files like that. https://support.apple.com/en-au/guide/mac-help/mchldaafb302/...

What do you mean by "see the file system?" It's not exactly hard to enable in Finder. In Finder's settings, one can have the root directory, home directory, etc. enabled in the sidebar. Not to mention, one can easily dra

I find this entire rant to be utterly ridiculous. Everyone is entitled to their opinions, but I do not think there is anything wrong with Finder. It's honestly no worse than any other file manager that I have used. I much prefer Finder

I feel like LLMs have been nothing but a boon for me. I have learned so much programming from them. I have over a decade of experience, but honestly, I have always been a below-average programmer. Good enough for boring CRUD work, but not m

> LLMs do not begin with any sort of concept they're trying to express. Why do the need to? Considering they are merely tools, I actually appreciate they do not do this. A calculator can compute far better than any human, but I ap

My poor understanding is that an LLM does not "know" either. It basically uses probabilities to predict the next word based on a large matrix of probable outcomes. For example, say I ask an LLM, "What sentence in English cont

Sure, I get the gist of the article. I have never liked the reductionist argument that LLMs are nothing more than next-token predictors. By that rational, the human brain is really not that much different. When I am having a conversation wi

Couldn't one just make a separate Google account for the models/AI products? I usually have multiple accounts with most providers, multiple banks, multiple brokerages, etc.. It really is not that difficult to manage. Though, I onl

Why do people always have to pinpoint some flaw, issue, or mistake in order to tarnish people that have achieved something great? Steinem was a human, not a paragon of perfection. She least used some of her time and energy on this Earth to

That is why I am very thankful for my job. We are not really allowed to use LLMs for much of anything.

If anything, those aspects were probably highly correlated to his success. Our economy runs on a system that does not prioritize nor reward empathy.

I think there is a conflation between attention and attention to details. I understand attention control can vary depending on the engagement value of a task. I have experienced the condition my entire life, I am well aware. I am not aw
