Are you incapable of grasping that the LLM wrote a total of like 3 sentences in a 3 paragraph comment?
And yea, the fact that you can’t seem to google 3 words and read a couple articles instead of being purposefully obtuse reeks of intellectual laziness.
Sorry, not sorry.
It’s not a 14 page paper, it’s two references to widely known historical events. I feel like I’m going insane…
Prompt: In 1-2 sentences, summarize the Russian revolution”s impact on social unrest.
Responses: Amidst widespread dissatisfaction with the Tsarist regime due to economic hardship, military failures, and political repression, the Russian people ultimately overthrew a centuries-old monarchy.
I’m not saying “create me a story about Russian people revolting”. I’m taking an event I’m already aware of and asking for it to get boiled down to a simple statement.
I would know if it’s lying because I paid attention in high school and college & I know what the Russian revolution is.
This is being blown way out of proportion because people see “LLM” and freak out. I use LLMs constantly in my day to day life for shit like this (and I’m not going to stop). I also feed it things I’ve written and ask it to check grammar and tighten it up. The LLM isn’t “creating” anything in those cases either, it’s just making things easier to read/understand; acting as an editor.
Sorry if that scares you.
Strange how it seems to work for me…
I know precisely what I want to say, I’m just asking for the information to be condensed into a concise 1-2 sentence statement.
There’s a big difference in asking it to generate something wholesale vs. feeding it information and asking for that information to be summarized in a clean and easy to understand format.
I would argue that is the best way to use LLMs; it’s basically acting as an editor.
While universities have a duty to maintain order and educate, they also have a responsibility to be spaces where free thought can challenge existing norms. Disruption, though uncomfortable, often serves as the catalyst for meaningful dialogue and progress. If protests were only allowed to occur within strict confines, they might lose their power to inspire the kind of reflection and change that has historically made educational institutions breeding grounds for progress.
Balancing the need for order with the need for protest is tricky, but history shows that sometimes, it’s the disruptions that push us all forward. In my opinion, those (often powerful) institutions should be tempering their response to these disruptions; rather than asking their student body to temper their actions.
There is no greater opportunity for the exploration and development of radical thought than by allowing students to be a part of that future history (should they choose to).
You’ve made some really good points and I’ll be thinking on them in the days to come.
I don’t have much else to add, but I do want to say that I really appreciate the honest and nuanced discussion here.
At the end of the day, we don’t always have to always agree on every specific detail and these kinds of discussions allow us to explore our biases and will shape our collective responses. And that is good for the community as a whole…
And here I am giving my pets human names like a weirdo: Brody (dog), Chad (dog), Sasha (cat) & Erin (cat)
Before you get married and have kids, just do a bunch of shit. Fail a lot, figure out what you like and what you don’t.
I had like 30 jobs between 17 and 23. I was a roofer for a couple days at one point (I do project management now, as a comparison).
Just try stuff and take advantage of the fact that you’re young and you can say “I’m figuring things out”. It’s a lot harder to make that fly when you’re 30.
It’s a rougelike so you’ll die a lot… I think it’s really fun but it can be punishing. There is a ton to do and lots to explore though so if you can push through the difficulty curve it’s pretty rewarding.
Controls could be better but it’s not unplayable with a controller. Definitely made for KB+M though…
I already use ComicRack, but I wish there was a better digital comic media management program. A cleaner UI and easier to use (or “smarter”) scraping process would be amazing. I also wish there was a standardized way to embed metadata in CBR/CBZ files…
It’s just an archive, so I don’t see why there couldn’t be a hidden file the reader ignores that just holds the metadata… I’m sure there’s a reason it’s not handled that way, but still.
On a similar note, I love Calibre but it’s so ugly and clunky. If it wasn’t so good at what it does, I’d never use it for aesthetics alone.
Just under 3k hours… MSQ done, 90% of side quests too, all Tribals expect EW, Land/Hand classes at 90 along with 4 combat classes.
Currently working on leveling the rest to 90 (all are between 50-80) and trying to solo all three Deep Dungeons to 50 (PoTD done and I’m on 21-30 of HoH). I was heavy into Eureka for a while but only got to the third island and needed a break. I’ve tried Bozja a few times but it hasn’t “clicked” yet.
I’m on Hyperion, just grinding out XP or chasing achievements most days.
Grand Heft Auto - like Crazy Taxi but you are driving your obese aunt around town to run errands while taking shortcuts and avoiding weigh stations (which are in a town for some reason) Racing/puzzle mashup
So you don’t have an actual argument, you’re just going to prop up the LLM strawman instead?
Is what I said wrong? Or are your feelings hurt because I used a tool to summarize something?
