I know you don’t. Just musing “out loud” for whoever is wasting their time reading these godforsaken comments.
I just hope your attitude and demeanor offline are better than what you put out on Lemmy otherwise you’re gonna make life harder for yourself than it needs to be.
I’d say I mostly come by it naturally but sometimes it’s the drugs which, I guess, means it’s also on purpose. So both.
I still can’t decide if you’re an AI bot, a collection of users in a Russian (or other country) troll farm, or just a teenage / early 20s edgelord who’s lost their way looking for 4chan.
Like, honestly, it’s almost impressive how good you are at rage baiting folks. So far i’m going with your username being an intentionally ironic joke.
Do you have any good takes or is your username meant to drip irony and that’s the point?
I’m pretty sure the fucking economist you’re replying to is not “teach(ing) something different from the mainstream” that’s the whole point of their post.
The whole point is the AI tools are hallucinating* completely incorrect answers and that students trying to use them as study aids and tools to learn with are going to have a lot of fake and wrong information to sort out and good luck to them knowing what is or isn’t incorrect or wrong when they’re just trying to learn a subject they know nothing about.
The only reason you or I or anyone else knows when AI hallucinates in its output is because we know stuff from our prior knowledge and can catch it that way. If you’re ignorant to a subject and trying to learn stuff you’re not going to know off hand the AI is lying to you if it sounds convincing enough for a layperson to accept.
*which I kind of hate that term because to the AI there’s no difference between truth and hallucination - it’s just output as far as the robot is concerned
The trick that AI pulls is just that it is really good at appearing competent
Yeah it’s almost like the AI is an unthinking machine trying to model what a person would answer to the question (prompt) provided to it.
I’m so goddamn tired of people (not you) acting like an LLM “knows” anything nevermind whether it’s right or wrong or could even tell you if it didn’t know the answer. It’s not like a person that can say, “I don’t have that knowledge so I know any answer is likely wrong” the machine is going to give you an answer every time. That answer will never be “idk” it’ll be whatever hallucination it’s confident enough is right based on the model and training.
I do think there are use cases for it and the technology is cool but the vision being sold and propping up our economy with a venture capitalist circle jerk is so far removed from reality.
Dude I just scrolled their history for funsies (I’m sure mine has plenty of dumb shit in it too so I’m not immune to idiocy…)
The guy who wants an auto block option for people who downvote their stuff is complaining about this being an “echo chamber.”. That. Is. Hilarious.
Probably the OPs comment history is my guess.
Anyway, you don’t care about any of that, or listening to anything that anyone would say if you feel they’re not on your team (let alone assuming their good faith), what you care about is scoring points with your tribe, and being righteous, and dunking, and all the rest of the boring litany of social-media ills.
But I’m putting this correction out there anyway.
You could have left all of that out. You don’t need to project insecurities onto other posters like that. It’s not very constructive and will repulse anyone reading. That or it will only invite troll replies and no serious responses.
Which maybe is your goal, just saying personal attacks like that aren’t going to make anyone want to engage with you even if they’re in agreement with you on whatever topics.
Our forefathers who came here to escape religious persecution so they could practice their own religious persecution probably have something to do with it.
I’m not gonna call you a bootlicker but I will say that the boring legal stuff is just words on a page. The procedure is just made up, and I think it’s mostly made up to not help us.
Anyways doesn’t matter, have a good day.
Yeah I looked at it and it’s like they did find a map and then just told an AI to paint x countries x colors (whatever shitty prompt they used).
Because they’re too stupid or incompetent to know which countries are where and they think they can offload their brain to a LLM.
I guess this is what we deserve. I’d be laughing if it wasn’t real life.
My whole point is that if someone is clapping or booing or otherwise reacting to a person speaking and they’re not actively disrupting the speaker it shouldn’t be a problem.
I don’t think it’s reasonable to expect people to not react or be silent when talking about stuff that impacts them directly and as long as it’s not very clearly outright hate speech or disrupting a speaker then it should be okay.
Rules of decorum are fine and all but when they’re used as a cudgel to silence expression from constituents at a town hall that’s bad.
Yeah but if you know a little bit of how LLM works under the hood it’s not surprising they’re bad at making a map of the planet.
Also why the fuck would we need to use AI to generate a map, fine use AI for some overlays or something but how lazy and incompetent are the folks inside the Trump admin. Lordy.
That’s fucking stupid, it’s a stupid rule and nonsensical. What, are people not supposed to have reactions to things?
As a dirty American, we just borrow schadenfreude from German usually in my experience.
There are English phrases that approximate it - like “taking enjoyment in another’s misery” but not really a word, at least one I can think of.
Nah bruh it’s cool just run the same prompt again and again and again, surely sooner or later it will be right. In no way is it going to do the opposite and just keep degrading with each output reading from the last one.
Semi related - You know, honestly, all AI is showing me is how absolute bullshit so many jobs are that we have in the corpo world. Like, at some point we’re gonna have an AI write a thing for an AI to read and file and there will be a little loop and then what the hell is the point of the job in the first place if it’s just machines sending things back and forth that’s just business class white noise.
You’re a silly person, aren’t ya.
Yeah fuck me for acknowledging AR glasses or other AR tech could be very useful but it’s being limited by our privacy concerns that are basically theater at this point.
Truly I am so cowardly Mr big internet man.
I’m just being realistic about the future. You already are carrying around a machine that’s listening and watching. You’re walking into and out of stores where you’re on camera. Hell you’re driving past however many cameras in your car or walking past them on the street, every business, every office, every space has cameras now.
Thus, I think eventually more and more augmented reality devices will be seen because people will come to appreciate their uses outside of just being recording devices once that concern is overcome. In other words, wearing AR glasses won’t get you default labeled as some perverted weirdo.
You don’t need to bend the knee but we’re past the point where there should be any expectation of privacy in public spaces. I’m not saying I like it, I’m saying I expect our society to continue to move towards a surveillance model where privacy simply cannot be expected in any public space.
Do I think it’s dystopian and bad, yes, yes I do. I also think we need strong privacy protections for our private domiciles. That doesn’t mean my opinion is aligned with what actually is going to happen in our world.
I don’t want it but it’s what is going to happen and has been happening.

Nothing. The default market hegemony is fucked.
