That’s mostly because google search has turned to absolute shit. ChatGPT rarely returns anything useful either, unless you want the most absolutely mundane answers. Anything remotely niche or specific has a far too great chance of just being plain wrong.
LLMs are a way to turn hundreds of billions of dollars into mediocre slop content that nobody wants to pay for. Humans will generate mediocre slop content for a fraction of the cost.
There is no way LLMs of this kind will ever be remotely affordable, and I fully expect OpenAI to fold in a few years. Amazon and Microsoft are already bailing out on LLM, realizing they’ll never pay off.
I pirated the DLC, it’s not really worth it
Oh yeah, drafting included a lot of sticky tape in the actual draft phase.
I’m a junior Chinese neurosurgeon, I only make 381k, they said it was the absolute minimum…
And lol at being a neurosurgeon. Posting on Lemmy.
Well, I for one am also neurosurgeon, and I make 381k per year. Any less would be insulting
The US founding fathers were vehemently against a standing army, because it could be used for exactly this very thing: seizing control from cities and states. That’s why they only wanted militias.
I feel a little judged now…
Well, there might be a single common denominator in those observations. Have you considered therapy?
My account is brand new and I just wanted to help with some problem reported in a post and was attacked by an asshole I blocked after trying to get an explanation for the attack.
They gave you a reason though, a lengthy one too. You probably didn’t notice it because you were too busy posting about putting your dick between a woman’s breasts.
I took a drafting class in high school many years ago (late 80s) and for the first half of the year we did all of our drawing on drafting tables with pencil and paper. It was crazy. Fortunately they had computers too, so once we had the basics down we transitioned to using AutoCAD.
I took one in uni, because at one time I wanted to be a civil engineer. We had a drafting class, and we started off on paper, because “you’re here to learn drafting, not computers!”
One day, when dutifully following instructions the teacher said something “oh, did I say 10cm between these two (huge and complex) parts? I meant 6cm. Move them closer together”.
So we all stared, and he said “and this why tomorrow we’re moving onto AutoCAD, bring your laptops”.
I want an adult-sized ball pit. Like 2m deep
Surinamese slang (kaolo is a fun one)
I love people using it as a synonym for “very”, when in fact means “shit hole”.
Dutch is also great at mugging others for words.
Pickled herring. Or soused herring. Or really, any kind of cold fish.
So, funny thing.
In the EU, we have a system where we label certain ingredients with e-numbers. The EU did that because nobody knows the difference between, say, perfectly safe calciumferrocyanide (to prevent spices from clumping) and calciumcyanamide (a fertilizer that will release poisonous gas when wet).
So they said “Lets give all those safe chemical a unique number, so that people know the difference between what we vetted, and what we didn’t!” and Calciumferrocyanide became E-538 and we all lived happily every after!
Hahah, no of course not. Moronic crunchy parents and immoral liars jumped on that system and decided that e-numbers were the source of all evil, the cause of ADD and hyperactive kids and they poisoned the well and rustled the cattle too. Dozens of allergies were literally invented without any medical cause or evidence, because it became really easy to identify, say, E-133 instead of erioglaucine disodium salts. In the 2000’s, you’d frequently hear “My kid is allergic to food colouring” by people who had not a single clue that maybe their kid would get super active because the food colouring is mixed with 99% sugar in that candy you’re feeding them.
That has mostly passed now, as the grifters moved to other things, but there are still a ton of people who would never think of eating E-300, who would panic over anything that contains scary-sounding ascorbic acid, but who happily buy pills containing 10000% of the recommended levels of vitamin C, blissfully unaware that those are all the same thing.
Technically, everything is toxic. Sugar has an LD50 of about 30 grams per kilo of bodyweight (and I promise you’ll be throwing up long before you get there).
But sugar really is pretty bad for you, especially in the amounts some people eat it. It’s not “Toxic” though.
Acid Reflux (GERD) is isn’t really caused by acidic foods, but by irritation of the esophagus and a weakened esophagal sphincter. Food that irritates your throat, or fatty food that leaves the sphincter open longer cause GERD, it has nothing to do with acid reaching your stomach.
And that makes a lot of sense really: your stomach has a PH of around 1.5 to 2 before eating, and 3-ish after a meal. Unless you’re straight up drinking a glass of lemon juice, you’re not going to make it any more acidic than it naturally is.
It won’t happen while I’m alive. Current LLMs are basically parrots with a lot of experience, and will never get close to AGI. We’re no closer today than when a computer first passed the Turing test in the 60s.
