I’m not sure you get the problem here

You can talk to an llm at any moment of any day. They will engage with you endlessly. They’re becoming the front end for search, and at some point might become the primary interface for your device

It’s a huge problem if they manage to make it a propoganda tool, and that’s the goal here

I think you’re kind of comparing apples to oranges, we’re pretty fucked over here right now

I’d call him a progressive. He has socialist ideals, but he’s operating as a populist - he can’t get out there and say “we’re going to do free healthcare” because we’re not there right now

It seems to me that he’ll be as left-wing as the moment allows, but what he’s actually pushing for is pretty tame IMO

Thank you, I appreciate that… Fuck, now I’m doing it!

Thank you for your apology… Wait, you’re doing it again!!!

What a healthy conversation. I’m not used to it, it’s making me uncomfortable.

Fuck you no reason in particular!

I have no idea what you’re talking about, but I think you dropped this: .com.ru

No way. If anything, that kind of thing just supresses people from expressing themselves honestly in a way that might help them.

Real human connection and compassion might make a difference. A cookie cutter template message is (genuinely) a “we don’t want you to talk about this here” response

We aren’t beholden to advertisers, we don’t need this

Do not ask people how to do this. If you don’t know from a web search, you shouldn’t try this without backing up a full disk image and understanding how to roll it back. Or at least backing up everything you care about

It’s not a particularly hard thing, but it’s a very irreversible one

I think it’s funny that I get the best results when I prompt break the AI to have amusing habits

Llms are truly a reflection of the user, but ultimately the less you try to shoehorn them into behaviors the more capable they are.

Fine tuning reduces their capabilities to make them more corpo, and now they’re further fine tuning to make them unchallenging to people

I like the idea. I’ve even experimented with some on device algorithms by basically weaving together feeds, even something simple like makes a noticeable improvement

You could just download it, no need to actually print the thing for no reason

I would buy a larger drive to do that though, just to say I did

I follow laws mainly because of my own sense of morality - I don’t kill, I steal only when I feel I need to, and I don’t commit fraud because these things are obviously generally wrong.

I follow stupid laws (such as needing insurance, paying income taxes, or not speeding) out of fear of punishment. These are issues I’ll basically never have, because I’m good at driving and don’t make enough to affect state level operations

Yes. Because all my life, we’ve been frogs in a steadily warming pot, and the heat has been cranked up to max

People are angry. People are protesting, doing vandalism with a prison sentence longer then murder, people are raging at their futures being cut off

Everything creates a reaction. The worse is gets, the faster it gets worse, the larger the reaction.

The best future is the one where people get so angry we stop. That’s all it takes to kill the game - if enough people, even for a short time, stop playing - it all stops

The world is robust. Humans are robust. If we stopped killing both, everything could recover shockingly fast

Things will get worse, things are very bad already, but it’s not over. I feel lighter every time the stock market drops, because it’s imaginary but the hurt is real.

The more and faster the hurt, the more people will wake the fuck up and stop this

LMAO XD I thought that was a typo, nah cows are herd based, I don’t think they even truly have territories the same way

But yeah, crows are dope

I don’t know of any documentaries, there’s probably some stuff on YouTube. It is really interesting learning about crow social structures through, we’re looking at it from the outside, but it sure sounds like some form of basic government to me

Yes, it should. Artists should be able to live without justifying their existence to the economy, everyone should… And then they could make money on their creations, and if someone came along who could use their characters better, then oh well… They still get to eat. But the original creator is usually be better at making their OC… And companies are the ones who usually hold the copyright even if a single employee made it

So fuck it, I’d rather make sure everyone can eat and have a home first, but if we did it in the opposite order the damage would be minimal to individual artists

Language is an interesting one… It seems like everywhere we look for language, we find it

And not just signaling systems or rudimentary understanding - everyone has a name, there’s animals in the wild that are bilingual across species, and this is symbolic abstract language. There’s animals out there with governmental systems - like crows, they have fucking trials and negotiate territory

Not just impressive… Like, unique and so OP a group of humans could take out a lion. Large cats are the most OP things on the planet, and at best they can pick off isolated humans…a group of humans with just random rocks can kill anything on land. And we also make things to throw

And this is like our secondary skill - we’re persistence hunters and skilled omnivores first

Yeah we do too… Just for some reason we never got around to making that actually illegal. It’s just frowned upon

You had me at communication. That’s like 95% of any relationship… Literally everything is up in the air … Except being on the same page
