Thanks for your post and a special thank for calling out the gatekeeping (in the edit).

@jonny My evaluation has ultimately been that the fundamental problem with these LLMs, at least in terms of the output the give, is that they are designed to give a satisfying answer to whatever is posed to them, even if they can't. So rather than say "I can't answer that" it will instead just invent something that sounds good. Because it may not know the answer, but it damn well knows what an answer *looks like*, and appearing to answer is preferable to giving a disappointing result.

Hey any journalists on here plz turn your public post indexing on, because most of you haven't and thats why people looking for public information cant find you. Go to settings > public profile > privacy and reach, select "include public posts in search results" Not all the fedi wants to be a public space, and thats fine, but some parts should be right now.

@jonny Thanks for the info! I'm not a journalist but didn't realize that was not on by default. Going to my podcast accounts and updating those, too!

@jonny this is good, but it might be easier just to take your name off the paper if you're going to be a lazy fuck 😂​

@jonny I've seen a couple of people do this previously, if I remember C. Titus Brown did so, and took a lot of flack from some corners for it at the time. I'd hope that attitudes have changed, especially around software. But yeah, in general we need to be more open about offering authorship for any kind of contribution to the project.

@jonny 100% to the general sentiment, but like every lazy system, this incentivizes unwanted behavior, i.e. to maximize coauthorship through mundane contributions that perfectly follow protocol.

Academics: stop being coy about #SciHub and start treating it like basic research infrastructure. If you dont include it in your syllabus already as a normal way to access research, you should start. No more winks and nods, just link directly to it and accept no criticism for doing so from the researchers that necessitate its continued existence by their publishing practices

tip for new fedis: the way the fediverse works is there is a chipmunk that comes by and puts all the posts in his mouth and goes and stashes them in his tree and only some of them hatch but that is the cost of federation

I'm not saying LLMs are magic and can do all the things they promise to investors, I'm saying these companies don't care about whether the bots can think. they won't work and that's worse: what they certainly will do is deepen the logic of surveillance that drives their application in advertising and provide a lot of flimsy, bias ridden, nonfunctional LLMs as platforms to data consumers like governments, cops, and insurance companies to make use of surveillance data under the cloak of LLM datawashing.

apparently you can check where the browser window is relative to the screen that it's on, so I had this very cursed idea and that is to make a webpage that has a fixed position on your screen (rather than in the browser window) and the browser window is like a magnifying glass that you have to decrease the size of to bring the page in focus, and then you have to move the window around to find the different sections of the page like a point and click adventure. |
@jonny my OCD is kicking hard: the chart should only go to +127, not +128.
@jonny Or they're a Tan wave?
@jonny ...okay but in my experience this is close to literally true, they bite when they start getting sensory/emotional overload
