Remember they’re doing this so that they can detect it themselves. I’m far from an expert, so maybe I’m misunderstanding something but the way I understand it, they’d be defeating their own tool if they go down this route. If they cycle the logit biases, how can they themselves detect if a random piece of text is generated? Which set of biases do they test?

At the end of the day, you’re talking about raw text. There’s no option to sign it, or embed metadata or anything like that. You can’t even guarantee that you’re seeing the complete sample, or even a single sample! If there is a fingerprint, it’ll be detectable to anyone, and it’ll be easily removed.

Ye, it’ll stop the casual abuse for all of 5 minutes. There are already tools to obscure the use of AI and, as you say, it won’t take much to update them.

Ye same, minus the shopping bag. Between the phone and the wallet, I can solve most problems I’ll run into. If it rains I’ll get wet ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

We had the same idea. Even ended up living on an old 37’ for about a year… then we popped the stern tube during an engine test (40 years worth of copper corrosion)…

Well you can imagine what that was like. It was only through sheer dumb luck that we saved literally everything we own. That coupled with some expensive engine repair and we ended up spending the cost of the boat again in repairs.

There’s more to the story but ye, we live in a house now.

This is not to discourage any one btw, just pick your boat better than we did. Also, you need to be really into DIY or really rich, because God damn, boat stuff is expensive!

Badly. Really, not much more that I can say about it. The future terrifies me.

Nice, but the pupils are wrong. The pupils are what make them so creepy!

I hope you’ve kept up with Amanda Palmer though, because she’s actually awesome!

Actually, no, as an adult, the lyrics to this song make me embarrassed to have ever be a

Seriously…

"I see the flesh, and it smells fesh, and it’s just there for the taking

These little girls they make me feel so god damned exhilirated I feel them up I can’t give it up The pain that I’m just erasing…

I tell my lies and I despise every second I’m with you"

Reading this as an adult makes my skin crawl

No no, if you’re talking about Clown Core…

I used uGet on windows, and it was fairly smooth. Not google, but an equally annoying large download. I believe it’s on Linux as well.

So what’s the solution then? Physical pleasure and psychological predisposition sounds like drug addiction. Personally I think the solution there is to legalize, regulate, and treat it as a medical condition, but how does that translate to conspiritorial thinking?

Ye, that’d be sick! and that’s also not what was being sold! this fridge did none of that. What exactly made it “AI” I didn’t bother to find out, but I work in IT. I guarantee it wasn’t this. Also, not convinced I want my fridge to be able to spend my money for me. I want to be able to have a Ramen month if I need/want

what’s the affordable option for daytime viewing with the curtains open?

Now THIS I could get behind! Still not AI though. it’s a very dumb timer system that would be very useful. 1950’s tech could do this!

I think you’re being sarcastic, but I unironically agree. Cars and fridges can, and should stay dumb, with the notable exception of battery management systems in electric vehicles. That’s the single acceptable use case for a car IMHO.

someone tried to sell me a fucking AI fridge the other day. Why the fuck would I want my fridge to “learn my habits?” I don’t even like my phone “learning my habits!”

It’s estimated to be around 66% of the global population, or 5.35b people… so $186.92 per person

To be fair, none of that was in your original post. Not knowing all of that, I think it was a safe assumption you meant the allegations of mistreatment by the CCP, rather than the Falun Gong claims of benevolence.

Obviously you didn’t though, and a quick Google search suggests you might have some valid points. I didn’t know any of that!

However, I do want to point out that you could say most of the same things about fundamental Christians, and while I’d personally take the same view of those types ( I do believe they’re a dangerous cult) I wouldn’t say anyone calling them peaceful religious types was engaging in “Alex Jones level of manipulation of the truth” and wouldn’t discount them entirely for holding that view. Particularly when, as you say, it’s very likely they are actually being persecuted

But hey, if nothing else I think you’ve shown that I have no idea what I’m talking about here. Maybe that comparison doesn’t actually hold. Also, for all I know he’s a bought and paid for propagandist. Honestly, nothing surprises me these days
