Moon deng has the advantage of never having claimed to be your favourite hippos favorite hippo.

…it hasn’t even complained about being famous yet.

…are we accidentally going to open a portal to hell by trying to get doom running on something it shouldn’t? Is that how it finally happens?

That would be the Ultimate Doom. Real Doom too.

That’s about caffeine, not coffee exactly, also beware studies that say ‘might’.

You could throw one at someone with a message attached.

On YouTube, people like Bisan Owda visit some of these places, you can see what it’s like.

The sideways uncanny; it’s always with us, but only few will see.

Because in the classical Jungian style of analysis, imagery of the basement of a childhood home was a revisiting of the past.

Likewise “up from the floor” indicates ancients coming up from caves, ancient monsters to be slain, underground dungeons. The primitive unchained and revisited.

…and using Freud’s principle of the inversion; down from the ceiling is indicative of from the future.

Prometheanism, featuring stories of Science only taking us so far before we fall from the ceiling, or rather it chaotically falls on us.

The idea that a return to primative barbarism and violence can also come from above, from technology, from the future unknown, from advanced beings, complex plans, or outter space.

So whether it’s up from the floor (ancient past) or down from the ceiling (unknown future) - it’s coming for us, with risks and dangers we’re not ready for…

…or so the stories go.

Next you’re going to tell me they were never open source (they were never open source).

Nitrogen suffocattion isn’t painless if it’s done completely of nitrogen.

You’re talking about regular oxygen suffocattion caused by decreasing the oxygen available over time.

What you’ve essentially said is “the guillotine is immoral because if you cut 1/10th of the way through, then 1/9th of the way through, then 1/8th and so on… Then it’s REAL painful!!!”

No shit.

I hear ramping up electrocution over a 20 minute period is also not great.

Yep, it’s not like we can vote him out.

There’s already censorship free versions of stable diffusion available. You can run it on your own computer for free.

Blood and poo.

I mean, Bush and Trump are in direct competition for worst presidents in living memory.

…and they both kinda jimmy with elections. They have a lot in common really so it makes sense he’ll be averse to calling out someone whose not that dissimilar to himself.

Also Bush has a generational bonding to the GOP, so there’s probably some level of moral compromise in that.

How about something autonomous that makes choices of its own will, and performs long term learning that influences the choices it makes, just as a flat benchmark.

LLMs don’t qualify, they’re trained, retain information within a conversation, then forget it after the conversation is closed. They don’t do any long term learning after their initial training so they’re basically forever trapped in the mode of regurgitating within the parameters set by the training data at the time they’re trained.

That’s just a very fancy way to search and read out the training data. Definitely not an active intelligence in there.

They also don’t have any autonomy, they’re not active of their own accord when they’re not being addressed. They’re not sitting there thinking, so they have no internal personal landscape of thought. They have no place in which a private intelligence can be at play.

They’re innert.

“What am I supposed to call LLMs if not calling them AIs?”

…really dude? They’re large language models, not artificial intelligences. So that’s what you call them. Because that’s what they are.

The fact that they came from research into artificial intelligence doesn’t factor in. Microwave ovens came from radar research, doesn’t mean we call them radars, does it?

Oof, programmers calling LLMs “AI” - that’s embarrassing. Glorified text generators don’t need ethics, what’s the risk? Making the Internet’s worst texts available? Who cares.

I’m from an era when the Anarchists Cook Book, and The Unabombers Manifesto were both widely available - and I’m betting they still are.

There’s no obligation to protect people from “dangerous text” - there might be an obligation to allow people access to them though.

Bush Gore 2.0

Back when Florida threw out all those votes because Black people didn’t trust the system down there so they ticked, and wrote in “Al Gore”… Officials called this “over voting” even though the same candidate was ticked and written, they threw those votes in the garbage and Bush won.

Huh, Russia too.

Does anyone else remember the joy of going to a state fair, or local games market/festival/convention to gave their PS/2 modded to play international games? Anyone remember region locking?

Fun times.

I wonder if Russia understands that the crazed Republican supporters they’ve cultivated to slightly favor Russia with this candidate (Trump) are just as likely (if not more) to be the same ones demanding Nuclear War with Russia next election season, or the one after it.

That’s the problem with trying to inject chaos into the world’s current super power, it might roll over and crush you whilst chaotically flailing sometime later. That’s the nature of chaos.

What you actually want is a friendly calm America, that lets you go about your own business. Not a chaotic America run by wildcards, sycophants, and morality free billionaires.
