You mean just in time for the US to declare “Chinese ram” a national security risk and ban it’s import right?

Sounds like someone hasn’t been on facebook in the last 4 years. AI posts nonsense, other AIs boost the nonsense.

sorry I said that backwards, meant by the time and not by the power you get. But yes IMO that’s what would be silly is I guess if there are exceptions like that where taking longer costs more, as obviously that’s largely a variable they control that doesn’t have to do with your usage, I could see with using that as a workaround with stupid laws though.

I think their point is that for a business a captive audience is a good thing. Kind of like how some grocery stores have noticed that when checkout takes longer, people are more likely to buy the drinks and snacks they put for sale near the checkout line. Likewise a charging station could have an overpriced restraunt selling low quality burgers for twice the price of the restraunts 2 minutes away by car, and customers will eat there because, they don’t want to sit around for 30 minutes, and then drive down the road and stop for another 10.

Unless I’m missing something and fast chargers charge by the watt instead of the hour, in which case that’s pretty big BS.

I agree with the overall concept, LLMs seem extremely useful, I’d say our direction for them is just idiotic. Local devices trained for what they are actually doing, without sending everything back so you can confidently train it on your styles of things etc… I see as a very practical idea. But of course the US’s super focused giant corporate controlled everything goes to a data center of some huge dangerous tech company is beyond ridiculous, and of course just the build out scale of investing literal trillions of dollars into it.

I don’t know to me the level it worked, is what makes it really silly to me that so few things can handle local transcription today without cloud services. I felt like it was 99% accurate running on a crappy win XP system with like 256 MB ram. Seems to me that it’s crazy that 20 years later we’re “well we need to hook you up to a supercomputer to do that”.

constitutions are meaningful because institutions can enforce them.

Throughout trumps term… that’s sounding less and less to be the case.

Maybe that’s the idea, they aren’t trying to raise the bar out of what we expect from this pinky swear. Maybe they want us to lower our expectations of a constitution to be “guidelines that we sometimes follow, when they don’t get too much in the way of what we want to do”.

I could see that, but I think the key difference.

Adblocker is an active block of something from outside.

AI block is telling firefox not to use any of it’s own.

Kind of a do this, versus don’t.

“Do protect me from attackers.”

“Don’t attack me”

We’ve also decided to add a “pinky promise” layer to this agreement.

You know what, considering that the world see’s AI on the same level of nukes. Maybe the iran war can be solved this way. Just give Iran a “morally binding” request to not build nukes. Declare that the new victory and end the iran war.

The real difference is proper regulation… of which, drugs, malware and personal AI agents all aren’t.

Medicine for the most part, is regulated and comes with steep penalties for abuse, misuse etc…

I think the question really being asked is… will AI create the scenerio that was in end of sillicon valley. In short, the AI they made, basically was capable of breaking every form of encryption in seconds. to which I would say, I don’t think gen AI is the key to that. Super computers specialized in it, would likely have found weaknesses in the current encryption forms if they could. I don’t see gen AI doing anything close to the power of the resources dedicated to it could if they were specialized for it.

yawn… let us know when the actual human scientists actually verify it, and figure out a use for it. In a world where we already have an excess of bored media producers releasing. “Scientists think this might lead to a cure for cancer”. Highlighting some piece of research at stage .0001 of determining if there’s even a direction to work with, now we’ve got reporting coming giving us something at the stage before it gets to the scientists that can start speculating on whether it might lead to something.

I’m about 40, and yeah I can say that I used old google. But I would actually defer to someone 10-20 years older than myself, because I was pretty young during most of that time, and I have to say when I rewatch a lot of things from that era, I realize that 10-18 year old me, has some pretty rose colored glasses.

Maybe, but it is fair to say, everything that makes it easier to find what you want… makes the internet more usable. In areas where finding what you want wasn’t terrible, when they impliment AI, most people hate it.

Where I don’t think I see it. Is the question of does it actually stop what it says it does. Christians themselves hold the moral double standard of “but it’s not about works”. They tweak their interpretation of everything to make whatever they were going to do anyway acceptable. Just look at what they justify now. Supporting genocides, oppressing others.

Because you really feel like spiderman… said one review from like one of the first to do the web travel mechanics in a pretty fun way… and when every spider man game basically copy pasted the same mechanics into a barely changed method, rather than criticizing it for being a copy paste of their last game with updated graphics, reviewers decided they could instead copy paste their reviews with slightly updated phrasing.

That’s also the problem though, question is where do we put the controls, lets say on the meeting callendar. The obvious is we do it like humans, we have a calendar program, and the AI program is like a human. We set it’s permissions based what it needs at the calendar level. If it has read only access for instance, it won’t accomplish the goal of “summarize everything I need to do in 2 sentances”, by deleting everything your calendar except for 2 items that it can summarize. except the problem is, the AI has more information than it needs to have, IE it’s got leaked security bullitans that the calendar program you are using has a privilage escalation, or it guesses the IT guys admin passwords, etc…

The only real workaround is, more narrowly trained AIs. instead of trying to make every model know every field. they should really be training 100’s different models into specialties. Fact is the customer service AI’s shouldn’t know how to write python scripts period. and honestly that’s probably the biggest thing that makes them bad at their jobs, and waste so much power and resources to do simple tasks. The idea of “one super AI” is IMO the core stupidest part of the AI rush.

Any reasonable person knows we are lying pieces of shit. The fact that you do business with us just shows you are stupid.

and the sad thing is… it’s really getting to that point in life. advertising claims are just so normally bullshit. anything said by a company, a politician, or anything, is unreasonable to believe.

At this rate people will be pushing for no fault divorces after they are caught cheating because… my spouse should have known I didn’t mean any of my vows, any reasonable person would have known I was a monster before the wedding.

I’m kind of torn on it, because the investors etc… are too, batshit stupid for me to make any sense. On one hand at the surface it seems like that should be the criteria of embarassment. IE we can’t control our AI, the old fictional AI concept of the paperclip problem is coming true (was an old thought experiment of an AI told to make as many paperclips as possible, and eventually it starts stealing resources and in the end just starts making paperclips out of people).

Logically talking about this SHOULD be really stupid, these should be negative, yet somehow investors, governments etc… are seeing “this technology is dangerous, we have to be the first to master it at all costs!”, which since that seems to be the case it does make sense to lie about it.

wonder what would happen if doom took that into the plot… doomguy discovers, hell is not real, it’s just a simulation of hell. and he’s just been a fly forced to play.
