Ohh, good advice. If you’re infected with covid, I also recommend you make sure to take adequate breaths.

So… They’re going to use the bot trained on wikipedia to rewrite wikipedia. Very much a Pierre Menard type situation.

brb going to try douglas hofstadter for crimes against humanity

That OpenAI haven’t recalled their product after it’s been involved in several violent deaths, that it would even be absurd to suggest they should recall it, really highlights how corrupt and disgusting the industry and the whole structure propping it up are.

tfw your gifted child syndrome resentment of adults is powerful enough to make you forget about your life’s work

Yes dude, that’s the main thing you should be concerned about of course. AI tools couldn’t possibly be bad in and of themselves, it has to be human tampering. You’ve always been very clear about that part.

The old chestnut that really these days it’s women who hold all the power is as old as times. I saw an instance in Perrault’s introduction to the tale of Griselidis (1691) and I’m sure you can go much further back. Not sure why we ever even bothered with voting rights, reproductive freedom, or personhood.

Ugh what is it with misogynists and compulsively writing out this nonsense again and again? Just want to punch him on the nose. Make it stop.

I think that §2 (“appearance-based sexual attraction”) will be the part that’s more centrally relevant for cis men (and most trans women)

God I looked into the article this is meant to illustrate, and I have feelings. The idea this mysterious, evocative short story is something to be solved, and that he’s somehow cracked the code. And it must be precisely about Dracula. Don’t ask yourself why the name comes from Proust, and why the style and themes are so heavily proustian. Proust is not genre literature, it isn’t in communication with the literature of ideas, which means it is of no value. Gene Wolfe is genre literature, so the story must be about vampires, and nothing else. Any literary depth is mere distraction, a ruse meant to mislead you and have you fail the test. Can’t wait for the rationalist Pale Fire remake!!!

groks gunna make u fuck

These fake people all have extremely 2025 voices

So they’re saying their present product can’t do much of anything

Yeah I couldn’t find the strength to even get to the naughty stuff, I gave up after one or two chapters. And I’ve read through all of HPMOR. 😐

Everyone can also agree that the direct jump from GPT-4o and o3 to GPT-5 was not of similar size to the jump from GPT-3 to GPT-4

Sure babe, you keep telling yourself that.

I’m sorry, I believe that there are legitimate artistic uses of neural networks (and they’re never about cutting budget), but this is just fascist aesthetics repurposed to serve anti-Trump messaging. Do not like.

I’m sorry, as in the awful no-effort MIDIs played through a “medieval” soundfont youtube spammed me with? Jesus Christ that’s embarrassing.

Stars are very likely extremely wasteful anyway and worth disassembling

ugh you guys suck

To be fair to baseball girl, I’ve found “what’s this thing I know but I forgot the name of” one of the best use cases for chatbots, because web search is too fucked to help you with it now. It sucks that it’s the case, but it has sadly helped me like, a couple of times (and after I insulted and redirected the chatbot when it inevitably gave me a shit initial answer).

Protect your eyes I guess

I’m sure you can think of hypothetical use cases for Google Glass and Meta AI RayBans.

I … can’t actually. What do these things actually do that a phone can’t?
