Paid for: full self driving

Got: a chatbot that styles itself on Hitler

Oh look, it’s vice.com, so presumably these ‘scientists’ are from the University of Joe Rogan or U of Y(outube) or something.

I would describe myself as close to the person you replied to in terms of skill level, and have been using llm’s in a similar fashion to the one they described, and get great results. I think the key thing is to know enough to understand what is happening, and see where the llm’s limitations are, and use it as a learning resource to actively improve while using it. Then be as specific as possible when asking questions.

Not only is it great in terms of getting working code, I have found chatgpt to be the best teacher I have ever had! (Because of availability etc). I think they must have trained the llm’s I have used on a lot of computer and coding sources.

I think the key is to learn at least the basics of coding first.There are scores of 5 to 25 hour long courses on most major programming languages on sites like udemy. Coding can definitely be hard to get your head around at first, but stick with it and do as many of those as it takes, or a night class or something.

If someone isn’t prepared to invest a week or two (in truth I spent a lot longer than that studying coding but I wan’t particularly time-efficient in my prior learning), then treat the llm as a learning resource, then good luck! I would guess the llm will be able to come up with any idea they can anyway soon enough!

Electricity.

Not fucking power.

Lemmy is as bad for misinformation as anywhere else. The impulses that drive people to re-imagine reality in an image that suits them is not confined to right-wingers.

we are creators We enjoyed a short period of exponentially increasing complexity due to a massive amount of ‘immediately free’ energy afforded us through the burning of fossil fuels.

Presumably he had to give 35 presents too.

Have children. Flying. Driving. Buying a whole range of carbon intense products blah blah blah.

Vegans just are not credible.

It goes with the couch.

Presumably she wasn’t just prepared to ride the beast, she actively wanted to be ruined by it.

She was probably disappointed when the transition happened. She thought she was going to be raw-dogged by the monster.

Clearly this premise, upon which your further exchanges are based, is complete bullshit.

You are a troll, presumably one for whom any response is a win. It gives you a little dopamine hit.

What a pathetic place to get to. There are a million ways to get a dopamine hit less pathetic than this, including all of the major addictive drugs.

Even opening up a poll on X to see what his users think about the idea…

Presumably the other headline that read ‘50% of voters’ were in favour of this party, should have read ‘50% of X users who voted in the poll (a potentially large proportion of which were bots owned and controlled ultimately by Elon Musk) were in favour of this party’

1. US (and in fact all ‘Western’) media is as bent as anything in the former Soviet Union.

2. America certainly is in the hypernormalisation phase. I’m not sure how far behind the UK (and other Western nations media) is because I really don’t engage in the media here. But any Murdoch owned media (like Fox in the US) is at the very least poisonous to open and fair democracy, and egalitarian society.

I just meant the breadth of media coverage in the UK spans billionaire/Murdoch owned media on one side to the voice-piece of the British establishment itself, which is now little more than a proxy for the interests of capital, on the other.

As for the term ‘antisemitism’, well the Gazans being murdered by Israeli’s are semites too.

But given the Israelis are committing a genocide - starving children then shooting them as they queue up for food - I don’t think anybody really gives a fuck what Israelis or the people ultimately supporting the genocide in the UK media, or in UK political parties of every stripe, think about the people that oppose them. It is about being on one side of history or another.

I’ll build my own cooling and temperature monitoring system

I bunged mine in the fridge, just drill a hole out of the side for the cables then use rubber sealant.

Yes let’s see. I expect the media - billionaire owned on one hand, bbc on the other - will do the kind of job on him they did when he was leader of the labour party. He will become mired in claims of antisemitism (whatever that means these days), and whatever else they can throw at him and it won’t go anywhere.

Capital drives the UK and capital does not want socialism. The media is in significant part crowd control.

It has been red tory v. blue tory since Blair took leadership in '93/'94.

It is more of less the same as the US (where it was red v blue republicans for a few decades and is now Republicans calling themselves ‘Democrats’ v. Christian Nationalist Fascists).

It is the natural continuation of Reaganite/Thatcherite neo-liberal capitalist ideology.

The outcome for the UK will be a lurch right as the poor vote for parties (Reform) who have used the immigration (that has caused serious legitimate problems for poor communities that simply can’t afford to support the huge number of asylum seekers that have been dumped upon them) and other cultural issues of various legitimacy (imvho) that poor people have been coerced into finding important, as wedge issues.

Edit - obviously this lurch to the right is the opposite of what should happen but here we go. It is what fossil-fuel powered capitalists prefer to socialism and an egalitarian society any day.
