Hmmm. Something still isn't clicking in my head.

Actually, let me add to my statement of it being intentional.

There are things that AI applications can do that humans can't.

AI is all about analyzing large sets of variables and finding things. Take recent studies in pathology where AI can find the patterns of certain disease in tissue specimens. This only works because the enormous dataset that was provided was already vetted by pathologists. I would argue this isn't counterfeiting human thought. This is enhancing an already utilized algorithm trained by doctors. Remember, a pathologist still needs to put their license on the line if they agree with the AI findings.

There is NO accountability in LLMs. To many people it looks like it is thinking, it has understood what the person has said, and considered boundaries that exist in our minds, but maybe not communicated to the LLM.

Thats why I call these AI programs unsuccessful and counterfeit. They're giving users made by possibly unverified and unreliable data with no accountability.

It was intentional.

Look, I don't care if it's fake or not, but beating trains is uncalled for violence.

Depending on the population of the travellers, they're first hand sources of what would be ancient history. There is nothing more valuable. What life was like, what people did, why the decisions were made, what consequences did the creation of such a program have, what was the architecture really like, what was popular media, what was popular comedy. The historic cultural aspects alone would write books.

God Id take a pay cut and change careers to get a chance to interview ancient Egyptians if we had a clear way to communicate.

I'll bet it becomes an interrogation to see if she's a rat.

That makes my curiosity worse, but I'm anticipating it being more horrifying.

We shouldn't be calling these AI programs successful. In the slightest. They're counterfeiting human thought and work.

I know about NAMBLA from South Park, (National American Marlin Brando Lookalike Association) but do I want to know what Butterfly Kisses is?

On one hand I feel like I should, on the other, ignorance may be blissful and I have no desire to search it.

They've done all sorts of stuff. Like there was the whole ebinopholoa or whatever where they argued, until you just couldn't stomach it anymore, that post-pubescent children are ok

Why is Lemmy so US-centric? The largest instances are in Europe, aren't they? So why does it have to be US news trolling as if it were Reddit? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.world

French is fun!

Well to read at least. I can't speak it worth a damn. Sentences are like a single word.

FOSS Browser replacement projects? (midwest.social)
 

Is anyone aware of any FOSS browser replacement projects? Being a "full stack dev" (feels like a false skill set most of the time) I'm at this point where there are easily enough of us who have struggled with implementing web apps in the various frameworks and tools that essentially all boil down to JavaScript, HTML and CSS.

There's nothing wrong with them individually, but with modern languages and hardware we should be able to make something better. At least in a way to encourage adoption of something better, and I want to contribute to it.

Searching for employment in Canada from USA? (midwest.social)
 

As y'all know, shit be going down in the US. And while I'm all for staying and fighting, my son comes first. I'm pretty familiar with Canadian culture, and my state borders y'all. I have an uncle from there Tok (just don't know where).

  1. I know it's super expensive, but if I had to guess thats based on population?

  2. I've got 12 years experience doing software development, Devops, system engineering, device engineering, with a BA in Computer Engineering. Are there certain companies to avoid? Certain companies/locations to check out? Salary isn't nearly as important as being able to afford living.

  3. I know some French and I am working on more. Is this helpful?

  4. Also, I need a bit of a kickstart to understanding the political landscape. We'll start with I'm pro-choice, an Ally, anti-gun, support democracy and love the ranked choice system, and subsidized healthcare. Taxes and the government work for the people.

  5. Work commutes? I've done hour long commutes, I've done bus commutes, Ive walked to work, driven, and remote, just need to know what to expect.

  6. I already say sorry for everything, any other cultural norms I should know about?

  7. Is it too obvious I'm panicked?

Any one else have absolutely wild dreams? (midwest.social)
 

Ever since I was a kid my dreams have been crazy as hell. Last night, I had a dream where I was dropping my kid off at school, but there were people on both sides of the road standing waiting for a wedding. I see the couple and nope right out. Turning around a curb, suddenly I was in a fucking baseball stadium and rows of seats cut me off. I had to get home so I got out of my car? I'm walking down the stairs when I hear "oh, there it is!" I look up where the person was pointing to the sky. I see some rocket like thing, and assumed it was fireworks. It stopped, I hear three dreaded bomb falling noise, and then it slams into a seat a few rows down from the wedding. I hit the deck because I don't want to die. But instead of exploding it sprays enough glitter throughout the stadium I ended up with a mouth full. Then I get out of there, call my mom, explained what happened, head to their house which is now a bunker in new York City and they refuse to believe what I went through. Then I woke up.
