I try to contribute to things getting better, with sourced information, OC and polite rational skepticism.
Disagreeing with a point ≠ supporting the opposite side, I support rationality.
Let’s discuss to make things better sustainably.
Always happy to question our beliefs.
Do you realize you are using similar arguments as the far right / masculinist by mentioning nerds, losers, mockery, charisma, soft boys, soy drinkers, display of power?
I said before I’m considering those who may still listen and the next generation. I know you can’t change the current maga-like with public education.
You have to compete with the content they produce regardless.
No, you can educate people from the start so they are able to weed out information by themselves.
Isn’t it what you do? You are educated so you are able to detect the far right bullshit.
Or are you really watching a bigger amount of content that ridicule this view in order to counter its effect?
Do it if you want to, but I feel like it mostly a feel good activity rather than something effective.
For me the only sustainable and worthy solution is massively reinvesting in public education. It’s the only way to lift a country’s average education equally.
The first step toward meaningful change begins with us. We must abandon our craving for glossy (and therefore glassy) devices, and instead embrace hardware that may not be as immediately pleasing to the eye (as it is the case with e.g. Fairphones or the PinePhone), but is built to be slightly more durable, somewhat repairable, and capable of outlasting even today’s limited commitments to software updates.
Fairphone and PinePhone being only mentioned anecdotally for being too pretty, and I guess not as sturdy as the author wants, is quite weird for an article about reducing fragility and improving repairability.
I’m skeptical about how efficient that could be. Are you going to compete with how much content they are able to produce to ridicule it? I feel like there’s some Brandolini’s-like law at play here.
What should I see about teenagers? Last I heard, masculinism is growing among them.
How exactly does mockery and ridicule help?
I’d rather put energy in the education of those who can still listen, and the next generation.
Looks like a cosmological cat traveling through nebulae.
Idk the band much, but I was curious, found this guy.
Paul Bruce Dickinson (born 7 August 1958) is an English singer who is best known as the lead vocalist of the heavy metal band Iron Maiden. Dickinson has performed in the band across two stints, from 1981 to 1993 and from 1999 to the present day. He is known for his wide-ranging operatic vocal style and energetic stage presence.
…
Outside his career in music, Dickinson has pursued a number of other activities. He undertook a career as a commercial pilot for Astraeus Airlines, which led to a number of media-reported ventures such as captaining Iron Maiden’s converted charter aeroplane, Ed Force One, during their world tours. Following Astraeus’ closure, in 2012 he created his own aircraft maintenance and pilot training company, Cardiff Aviation. Dickinson presented his own radio show on BBC Radio 6 Music from 2002 to 2010, and has also hosted television documentaries, authored novels and film scripts, created a beer with Robinsons Brewery and competed at fencing internationally. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bruce_Dickinson
A PE teacher got absolutely wrecked by a former Olympic sprinter at a sprint competition.
Also starting to spread on the cheapest plans of streaming services like Prime and Netflix.
If you hear Shakira, you’re also in trouble.
There’s actually a lot of human intervention in the mix. Data labelers for source data, also domain experts who will rectify answers after a first layer of training, some layers of prompts to improve common answers. Without those domain experts, the LLM would never have the nice looking answers we are getting. I think the human intervention is going to increase to counter the AI pollution in the data sources. But it may not be economically viable anymore eventually.
This is a nice deep dive of the different steps to make today’s LLMs: https://youtube.com/watch?v=7xTGNNLPyMI
It was the vacuum cleaner, nobody listened to my warnings.
Full Metal Alchemist brotherhood, maybe.
And so does Lord of the Rings. It’s fantasy, having obviously good people and obviously bad people you kill without remorse is part of the genre.
That’s actually funny.
Do they? You’re the first one I read mentioning that.
I’m worried that by using their tactics you contribute to popularizing their ways.
