They disagree with it so much that they’re only willing to practice it in complete secrecy.

I’m sure LLMs can be useful for automation as long as you know what you’re doing, have tested your prompts rigorously on the specific version of the model and agent you’re using, and have put proper guardrails in place. Just blindly assuming a LLM is intelligent and will do the right thing is stupid, though. LLMs take text you give them as input and then output some predicted text based on statistical patterns. That’s all. If you feed it a pile of text with a chat history that says your emails were deleted, the text it might predict that statistically should come next is an apology. You can feed that same pile of text to 10 different LLMs, and they might all “apologize” to you.

I don’t get all the downvotes, unless people misinterpreted your comment and assume you’re using it for medical devices. It’s open source and can be run with locally hosted models, so no harm in playing around with it as long as you don’t give it access to anything too risky.

PhD - Pompous, Hubristic Dickhead. That description fit a lot of college professors I’ve known, but AI is more like a sycophantic intern.

I live in the US where teachers are paid a pittance. Shows our values as a society. They’re educating the next generations, but that doesn’t make number go up right this second, so they are compensated accordingly.

The current tech brings a modest productivity increase when used correctly, but it isn’t really taking anyone’s jobs. Articles like this that support the fraudster’s false claim that it will are part of the problem. No, don’t tax AI, just don’t use taxpayer money to bail these fuckers out when the bubble pops.

I remember a time when webpages had banner ads that didn’t flicker and make it impossible to read the page, and that also weren’t based on corporations spying on you. If it had stopped there, we probably wouldn’t be having this conversation right now. But no, number must go up!

Gambling is an age-restricted activity because it exploits the brain’s reward mechanisms to drive profits, which can lead to addiction. Big tech social media platforms are the same, so this makes sense. Now make free to play games with loot boxes an age-restricted activity.

DuckDuckGo has been a “good enough” option for me the last 5 years. A couple times a year when I’m not getting good results, I try the same search on Google and don’t get anything better.

Definitely agree. “Making a living” is a dumb concept when society could absolutely provide universal programs to fulfill everyone’s basic needs. Instead, societal resources are allocated to a few wealthy sociopaths so they can hoard it and disproportionately control world affairs according to their own selfish interests. What a world it would be if nobody had to work just to stay alive, and everyone instead could contribute their best selves to society on their own terms.

Some experts believe that AI may soon surpass human intelligence Experts like Sam Altman and other members of the circle jerk spouting what they know damn well is bullshit for their own financial gain? Those experts? millions of job losses as a result of AI You mean as a result of rich assholes using AI as an excuse to lay people off while pretending AI is picking up the slack, but it’s really the remaining employees being overworked?

lemmy.lol has been having a lot of issues the last couple of weeks where it’s unusable slow and requests keep timing out. I tried posting this multiple times and kept getting errors, but it seems it actually was succeeding, so apologies for the duplicate posts. I might end up moving to a different instance.

I prefer open source, but if I’m buying proprietary software, let’s do it fairly and sustainably. Don’t charge me a 1-time fee and then enshittify what I bought because your business model isn’t working. On the other hand, don’t charge me multiple times for the same software with a subscription. The most fair arrangement to both of us is to sell perpetual licenses for a specific version that doesn’t restrict my usage or require me to use it online and then charge fees for newer versions. If your newer versions introduce massive improvements, then I might give you more money. It’s also fair to do free upgrades for a period of time and then charge for major upgrades.

Yeah, it’s odd the survey assumes everyone has used Plex. When I was looking for an actual server to replace Kodi back in 2018, it was like Plex - nope, Emby - nope, Jellyfin - ah, we have a winner.

I hate Windows as much as the next person, but the title is clickbait. It’s an update bug that affects a small number of users, but the title misleadingly suggests Microsoft deliberately removed this functionality.
