I’d allow it, but then put some hidden white text in my resume to manipulate the AI into giving me a higher score.

Cope. The idea always sucked and made no sense. (Also I just hate Zuck and hope he gets Luigi’d 🙏)

Knowing Nvidia’s exorbitant pricing, I think I’ll keep Intel’s Arc B580 in my wishlist.

You might just want to use Kaggle tbh

They did test those block towers to see if they were resistant to earthquakes, and they were still standing after a test comparable to the strongest earthquake in California. Though I agree that compared to the other options available it does look way more unsafe and inefficient.

QnQ pwease down’t ask me abouwt Tiananmen Squawe, that’s vewy mean…

It’s a known problem - though of course, because these companies are trying to push AI into everything and oversell it to build hype and please investors, they usually try to avoid recognizing its limitations.

Frankly I think that now they should focus on making these models smaller and more efficient instead of just throwing more compute at the wall, and actually train them to completion so they’ll generalize properly and be more useful.

It’s kind of wild to me how many really small towns there are in the US. About 32% of towns in the U.S. have less than 500 residents.

For comparison, here in Brazil I lived most of my life in a town with ~35K residents and it was already considered a small rural town. Some of my family lives in a neighboring town with ~11K residents, and even in my hometown people joke about how small it is, and that there’s basically nothing going on there. 1288 of towns in Brazil have less than 5K residents, or about 23.1%, and there are no towns with less than 500 residents. Meanwhile in the US 76% of towns have less than 5K residents.

Again, it’s just kind of wild to me. I remember playing (reading?) the Echo VN and thinking “Man, a dying town with only 50 people? That doesn’t sound realistic,” but apparently that’s way more common than I thought.

I would like to propose some changes to that title:

Microsoft CEO’s pay rises 63% to $79m, despite [because of] devastating year for layoffs: 2550 jobs lost [employees were fired by their greedy CEO] in 2024 [because he wanted more money]

Conservatives have already said that they want to inspect children’s genitals, so it’s only a matter of time until they start saying that they want to regularly inspect women’s genitals as well to “protect unborn children” (read: control women and fulfill their sick fetish)

I remember when scientists were more focused on making AI models smaller and more efficient, and research on generative models was focused on making GANs as robust as possible with very little compute and data.

Now that big companies and rich investors saw the potential for profit in AI the paradigm has shifted to “throw more compute at the wall until something sticks”, so it’s not surprising it’s affecting carbon emissions.

Besides that it’s also annoying that most of the time they keep their AIs behind closed doors, and even in the few cases where the weights are released publicly these models are so big that they aren’t usable for the vast majority of people, as sometimes even Kaggle can’t handle them.

Looked up her name on Twitter to see what people were saying about this, that was a mistake 🙄

A lot of people seem to hate her for whatever reason, she was far from perfect, but all things considered I think she did fine as CEO and I never got the hate. It can’t be easy to manage a company as big and complex as YouTube.

And social media websites that allow porn (Twitter, Reddit, Lemmy, Tumblr)

Or just messaging apps where people send each other porn anyways (Whatsapp, Discord, Telegram)

Horny teens have always found ways to get their hands on porn, even before the internet. Studies from the 80s and 90s found that the same percentage of boys had accessed porn as more recent studies where the internet has already become widespread:

A study by Bryant [13] indicated that by the age of 15 years, 92% of boys had looked at or read Playboy, with average age of first exposure reported to be 11 years. Similarly, in regard to X-rated films, 92% of 13- to 15-years-olds reported that they had seen such a film. Most undergraduate men, when asked whether they have used sexual media in the past year, answer in the affirmative, although results vary between studies [14,15]. Studies in other cultures have found similar exposure patterns as in America. A recent study of 517 young men aged 18 to 27 years in Hong Kong indicated that 15.8 years was the average age of the first purchase of sexual media; just over half reported having used sexual media in the past 6 months [16]. The overall prevalence of having read, watched, or listened to sexual media in this sample was 91% (see Pan [17] for a lower prevalence estimate among Chinese young adults).

“My science-based, 100% dragon MMO is already under development.”

I did something like this when working support at Phillips

I thought it was funny but my colleagues and supervisor were not entertained lol

Yeah while I don’t doubt that noise pollution can affect one’s health I have to wonder how much of this is just the placebo effect, like with people complaining that cellphone towers are giving them migranes or rashes.

Why’d you name your company after your dick?

Don’t a lot of people also keep their tax information as plain text in their PC? If someone’s really worried about that stuff being leaked I think it’s on them to download VeraCrypt or smth, and also not to use ChatGPT for sensitive stuff knowing that OpenAI and Apple will obviously use it as training data.

Maybe they should try using Claude 3.5 Sonnet to write more secure code for their systems. I’ve heard it’s the best LLM out there when it comes to coding 🤡

No but you see he is a visionary! A real life Tony Stark!! He’ll do great things with that money like… Making Twitter X likes private for some reason…? I’m sure that cost a lot of money somehow /s
