  • Hot take.

    Memes are common things that have existed as long as humans have.

    Historians of the future will not only understand our memes easily, but because they’re (hopefully) more advanced future humans with better technology and culture they’ll be sharing memes that put ours to shame.

    They’re not going to be confused.

    They’re going to cringe.


  • This could be fine if it didn’t immediately send all of your data to the internet.

    But as is, fuck that and fuck you Microsoft.

    Windows told me I don’t have permission to do something. On my computer. As an administrator. Using the command line.

    Fuck Windows, fuck Microsoft and their controlling asses, and fuck co-pilot and Open AI for contributing to artificial intelligence not only being closed source and proprietary, but encouraging the United States government to make it literally illegal to do it on the open source field as well.







  • AI is a layname the field of deep learning. Systems that use data to create a function that performs any task.

    There are other branches of machine learning but deep learning with neural nets blows them out of the water when it comes to “pushing the envelope”, and aren’t really what people think of when they think of AI- even if most use cases really don’t need it.

    I’d be against regulating those algorithms as well, but they’re so boring nobody really cares and they’ll always be available open source.

    basic non-learning software that people call AI but is basically just a general improvement on say stabilizing video in a recording?

    Even chat GPT and other LLMs are not learning as you use them. A really big and growing fraction of stuff your computer does depends more and more on trained neural nets.





  • Regardless LLMs aint the most revolutionary tech of the century

    Oh it is though. Not LLMs, they’ll probably go out of date soon. AI is the thing that’s revolutionary. Only second to genetic modification, but AI and most other forms of human advancement will likely be hand in hand.

    Like solar roadways, or the hyperloop, or the thorium powered car.

    This is irrelevant but I didn’t buy the crap on any of those.

    Or crypto.

    AI is actually producing results. It’s in use as we speak. It’s producing real value. It’s not some fantasy far off thing. You can use them today.

    And you probably use AI every single day when you open your phone and take a picture. You’ll eat these words, and when you do you’ll hopefully have access to the tech yourself, because otherwise Mister Microsoft will control who can and can’t succeed in the world.
