None of the LLMs could figure out what I meant when asked “Find me lion and the lamb iconography examples used before the messianic age”. They kept instead pulling up Christian things specifically (even though Judaism beats it by hundreds of years). Even when I emphasized to ignore Christianity / Christian sources they’d keep insisting on it.

It doesn’t matter how you process the data - looped transformer, harnesses, etc. These are still glorified overgrown statistics machines, and will default to whatever floods it’s data the most because there is ZERO intelligence.

I’ve also checked how they do code, and it’s terrible. The great for very beginner stuff or boiler plate code. By anything as advanced as a website and it’s shit.

Sure, it technically can make a functional website. I tested it just to see how it works. But it does it the equivalent way a human technically can make a functional car out of cobbled together scraps from a scrap yard. It used SO MANY <div> classes for no goddamn reason. So much inline CSS too. It’s like, good fucking luck fixing an issue manually and unravelling the tangle of containers it’s made. You’d have to use the LLM again just to change things at that point because it’d be easier, and hope it doesn’t break a button. Mind you this is a simple HTML and CSS website, not even JavaScript. There’s no way in hell I’d trust anything more complex created via vibe coding.

“profitable”

https://www.wheresyoured.at/anthropics-profitability-swindle/

Uh huh. And that’s despite government propping and no returns on stocks on top of possibly cooking the books.

“revenue” that’s propped up by the government and ignores other factors, such as overall expenses, competing open source models, and non-realized assets.

The difference between Microsoft and OpenAI or Anthropic is that Microsoft has a profit model.

There’s absolutely no way that the big LLM companies can make enough profit to overcome their expenses in the next decade even, especially since the technology on the open front only continues to improve. That’s why the LLM bros keep hyping it up via fear mongering and criminal activities like hacking - to keep selling the illusion that it’s AI.

That’s the “before” photos

I never said Google

My mistake, I thought you were the other commentator

1. Then why mention Google search in your previous comment?
2. There’s more countries than Poland. That’s just an example. You could try Spain - they have a big market too, for example.

Or you could do option three I mentioned and you ignored - buying straight from China if out of options. It’s likely the thing you wanted was made there anyway if you can’t find a European courier service to ship it to you.

We both know why Amazon is successful. But unless you or I get a couple million euros minimum, we can’t do much about setting up a competitor to Amazon (Also they operate on multiple languages too btw, there’s Amazon.de in German or Amazon.es in Spanish).

Firefox browser at least translates well enough. If it didn’t exist, you’d have a much better reason, but it does.

It’s not that hard to boycott Amazon, but people from 1st world countries have gotten extremely lazy for very particular things. This is one of them. Buying something already takes more effort than not buying something - units you’re someone born with a silver spoon in your mouth I suppose. People in these countries have a more “throw it away” attitude than a “needs to keep working a long time” one. It’s cultural.

Does it take more time to give something without Amazon? Yes. Does it take a lot more time though? Not really. In the end, it really comes down to just not caring enough about fascism/climate/corruption. Because realistically, by choosing Amazon, you’ve already decided that those things matter less than whatever doodad you’re buying, and outside of something that’s from the base layer of the hierarchy of needs, like medicine or food, you don’t have a good reason.

I’ve grown up poor. I’ve gone through times of poverty so extreme I went without food for nearly a week, and other times would walk miles to forage for food in a forest. While in university. The ones in high horses are the ones privileged enough to think needing to buy something from Amazon is a realistic issue.

I live in Finland and have managed to always find an alternative. Ireland gets way more shipping options than Finland. You’re literally just not searching hard enough.

1. don’t use Google. It always only tries to give regional search options. Use Startpage and change the region.

2. search in a different country’s language. If searching in Poland for example, search in Polish.

And heck, if you somehow still can’t find what you need from those stores, just look at China - EU shops. Most of Amazon’s shit is from China anyway, so might as well avoid the middleman.

Spain’s protests did include violence. A great deal of people fought off police and set up barricades to prevent that elderly woman from being evicted. The peaceful protests were also backed by the threat of escalation if nothing was done.

The paper payslips thing was also more than just about a payslip. The protests were about accountability - it’s easier to change a database about how much work you did later than it is to change a physical paper given to you months ago. That’s not a hypothetical, that’s something that happens and not just in France.

Go back to your right wing misinformation chamber and stop spreading bullshit here.

Grower not a show-er; you must have faith

You mean containerizing Swizzin?

It wasn’t a bug, it’s a feature that’s now deprecated.

I am. Its eyes moved.

Huh, guess the Koreans are the ones with the correct depiction then. Go figure.

When I did wget (curl didn’t work) I received the message that Debian 13 Trixie is not supported.

They seem to only support Debian 10, 11, and 12, along with Ubuntu 20.04 and 22.04

Ah you’re right, I missed the first “could” and only saw the second. That’s what I get for browsing Lemmy late at night when sleepy.

You used the whole thing in past tense, as if the event already happened, not future tense.

What you wanted to say was “Trump did what the Democrats never could; make it very likely for a Texas Democrat to be elected to the Senate.”

By saying “put” you implied the event already came to pass.

English is a dumb language though so understandable for your mistake to be made.

Edit: correction; I missed the first “could” and only saw the second “could”. My mistake - the sentence is grammatically correct. Though this is a fine example of why English is a dumb language. Still not as bad as Finnish I’d say (sorry Finns the country and everything is great to me but we gotta fix the language, too many exceptions like English except unlike English you just get misunderstood since so few letters of the alphabet are typically used to make words. Old Finnish had more order than Modern Finnish).

That was the point. A logical fallacy is nonsensical - I used a more hyperbolic example to highlight the fallacy.

Many humans very long ago saw the sun moving and therefore logically concluded it orbited the earth. Hence the logic in logical fallacy. They’re fallacies that are rooted in logical thinking.

In this case, the logic of “many people have died” yet “ghosts are rare”, therefore “ghosts don’t exist” is what’s flawed, because it assumes we know exactly what ghosts are - as a phenomena.

The reality is ghosts - and the paranormal - has had some scientific explanations in the past hundred years. Infrasonic hallucinations for one thing, as discovered by Vic Tandy. Then there’s the better known sleep paralysis, and the lesser known as still studied hypnogogic hallucinations. And on top of that, there’s things still unexplained, though hypothesis have been made but not properly tested, like will-o’-the-wisps.

So, already in some sense, some “ghosts” do exist, just not as intelligent, independent spectres necessarily but as hallucinations. Yet, even the definition of “ghost” varies, changing what can be described as existing or not. Many religions consider anything if the sort demonic instead for example.

And lastly, there’s the rare phenomenon that is random and simply unexplainable, that’s unreproducible in a lab to test for. I myself have seen such things, and despite being a huge skeptic who is science forward and works in STEM fields, cannot explain past a label as “paranormal”. If anything, it’s these experiences that have led me to my interest in science and trying to find explanations for things. Most people don’t even know of Hypnogogia. Most creepy night time sightings can be explained by that though.

I have yet to know what can explain my cousin rising up in air multiple feet/meters from her hospital bed while she was allegedly possessed. Along as witnesses my aunt, another two cousins, and a poor terrified nurse, ruling out my own mind somehow hallucinating this.

But perhaps with time something will be discovered. Discovery isn’t made by deciding not to investigate, let alone using a logical fallacy.

Wait the Democrat won?

Can’t tell what’s more annoying these days - the AI fanatics, or the ones who think everything is AI.

Well, probably the fanatics but you dumbasses are trying really hard to close that gap.

Just pointing out, this is a logical fallacy is all.

To put it in a non-ghost perspective:

“Given how many people have walked, seeing a gold medal Olympic gymnast should be a common occurrence if they’re real… The fact that they aren’t is proof that they’re not”

Basically the amount of something isn’t evidence of the lack of something, it’s only evidence of possible rarity.

Your argument is a logical fallacy and could be easily countered by the same fallacy with “Given how many people over time and history have said they have had a paranormal experience, they must be real”
