Let me see if I got this right: Because use cases for LLMs have to be resilient to hallucinations, large data centers will fall out of favor for smaller, cheaper deployments at the cost of accuracy. And once you have a business that is categorizing relevant data, you will gradually move away from black box LLMs and towards ML on the edge to cut costs and also at the cost of accuracy.

They have a hard time admitting they don’t understand something, so it must be very very complicated when they don’t. Pairs with not being a good communicator, which is what this guy was lamenting about.

It’s still telling you what you want to hear but with a different aesthetic. This will always be the case for systems that can’t even perceive it’s own lies.

It is also true people benefited from Obama’s DACA program. This isn’t a simple trolley problem let alone a single track

I’ll just tell that to my brother in law who just got released from ICE custody. Like I know this picture is probably true for Gaza, but it isn’t for many of my neighbors and family.

Is this because they want Russia to take the peace deal?

There’s being rich and then there’s being wealthy. Being wealthy means you can fuck up everyday and still be rich.

“So anyways I built a new language luan and you are a bad person if you don’t appreciate it”

Eliezer, given the immense capacity of the human mind for self-delusion, it is entirely possible for someone to genuinely believe they’re being 100% altruistic even when it’s not the case. Since you know this, how then can you be so sure that you’re being entirely altruistic?

Because I didn’t wake up one morning and decide “Gee, I’m entirely altruistic”, or follow any of the other patterns that are the straightforward and knowable paths into delusive self-overestimation, nor do I currently exhibit any of the straightforward external signs which are the distinguishing marks of such a pattern. I know a lot about the way that the human mind tends to overestimate its own altruism.

Fun to unpack this here. First is the argument that we should be dismissive of any professed act of altruism unless someone is perfectly knowable. There is an interesting point here completely missed: even if the person knows themselves well enough to make the claim, others cannot possibly know another well enough to make the claim of another. Instead what we get is “trust me bro” because being contrarian is evidence of being on the correct path 🙄. We went from “we can’t possibly know another well enough to say they are altruist” to “I know when people are not altruist because they are predictable, but I am unpredictable therefore I am altruist”. I think this touches on the manipulation present in the community: you are either being manipulated and therefore cannot be an altruist because your motives are not your own (are you even selfish at this point?), OR you are contrarian enough to show you are in control of your own motives (nevermind we still can’t say whether your motives are altruistic). This is a very surface level read, I can’t bring myself to read all that slop. Parts are so redundant it feels like it was written by AI.

I’m hoping it’s Global Hegemony.

It’s a shrewd move as the global south will be feeling the worst effects of climate change and China is the only country that’s offering infrastructure based on renewables at scale.

Not $200 but ended up buying a xerox phaser. When looking at cost per page it is one of the cheapest though.

Maybe I’m weird but I don’t like getting a scanner combo. Scanners break more easily than printers and after my Brother all-in-one had a busted scanner I’ve been going for portable scanners that run off USB power from the laptop. Canon lide has been a solid scanner for me.

I think this is trans positive, here’s why:

Top left: trans women are hot

Top right: hetero person who is confused by being attracted to a hot woman, they will make themselves known unfortunately

Bottom left: explicit support

Bottom right: chad will agree and be supportive when their sis are hurt. (I choose to believe this was the intent because I want to believe in humanity)

When the only redeeming quality of your speech is that it is free, then your speech is also worthless. Using the pepe avatar is just the discount sticker making it easier to spot.

Are they wrong the complain though? Gordillo seems to have some criticisms for them not endorsing Mamdani

Baths are just more fun.

Saying that you’re not worth the time for personal interactions but here’s a reason that’s okay is a platitude.

Additionally, AI will only be getting better,

It might get cheaper, but that doesn’t mean it’s doing a better job.

if the alternative is telling people that are struggling and have no other options that they have to tough it out

That’s just it, if you’re talking to someone who’s is struggling with this there is already a better option: showing empathy. I suspect our perceived lack of empathy is a reflection of how society treats people in general, we are just more honest about it and recognize it’s mostly platitudes.

I’ll be honest, I find the framing of the study offensive and I’m not sure if I have the words but I’ll try.

It’s less about this study comparing itself to no intervention instead, but the social & political context of AI being pushed as a way to make care giving more efficient while sacrificing quality.
