One side is talking about suspending habeas corpus while flagrantly violating other parts of the Constitution while destroying relations with allies and favoring totalitarian dictators. Would not be a leap to call such megalomaniacs "lunatics".
Unfortunately, that may be the only option. If a printer isn't running a FOSS firmware, you've no guarantee that you will be able to keep using it into the future.
That is concerning. Should just let them be. The rattle is just their proclamation that they are introverts (in relation to other species) and would not like to be interacted with. It's a really civil way of handling things, especially for a reptile.
Greens are in bed with Putin, same as the GOP. They never attempt any campaign that can have a positive impact. They're not leftists or worth support from anyone who is remotely left of center.
To be fair, some of them are members of the Church of Accelerationism and believe that making life worse for people and offering up vulnerable populations as sacrifice will magically lead to the world getting transformed into a better place, despite no historical data backing such an idea. So, they want Nazis to win, despite claiming to be leftists who care about fellow human beings.
I do use AI for simple questions, and it works fairly well for that, but this claim by MS is just marketing bullshit.
This is my experience. It can be useful for simple things that used to be found with a web search before AI slop broke things. For example, I was having trouble getting a simple CGO program for a POC to communicate with the main Go process. This should have been solvable easily with documentation but the CGO docs are pretty bad and sample code was near impossible to find due to AI slop in the search results. GPT was able to provide the needed sample code to unblock me.
Is that why I thought it was so shit? I was somewhat tempted to rewatch and see if it was any better than when I watched it on broadcast TV and episodes seemed out of order.
Thank you. It's exhausting and cathartic at the same time to call the little shits who go through mental gymnastics to support their anti-electoralism/accelerationism as the literal cause of the current state of the world. Yes, bad actors have been doing bad things but they're basically just holding the door open for the guy walking up to the house with a can of kerosene and lit blowtorch.
Rationally and in vacuum, anthropomorphizing tools and animals is kinda silly and sometimes dangerous. But human brains don't work do well at context separation and rationality. They are very noisy and prone to conceptual cross-talk.
The reason that this is important is that, as useless as LLMs are at nearly everything they are billed as, they are really good at fooling our brains into thinking that they possess consciousness (there's plenty even on Lemmy that ascribe levels of intelligence to them that are impossible with the technology). Just like knowledge and awareness don't grant immunity to propaganda, our unconscious processes will do their own thing. Humans are social animals and our brains are adapted to act as such, resulting in behaviors that run the gamut from wonderfully bizzare (keeping pets that don't "work") to dangerous (attempting to pet bears or keep chimps as "family").
Things that are perceived by our brains, consciously or unconsciously, are stored with associations to other similar things. So the danger here that I was trying to highlight is that being abusive to a tool, like an LLM, that can trick our brains into associating it with conscious beings, is that that acceptability of abusive behavior towards other people can be indirectly reinforced.
Basically, like I said before, one can unintentionally train themselves into practicing antisocial behaviors.
You do have a good point though that people believing that ChatGPT is a being that they can confide in, etc is very harmful and, itself, likely to lead to antisocial behaviors.
that is fucking stupid behavior
It is human behavior. Humans are irrational as fuck, even the most rational of us. It's best to plan accordingly.
I'd argue that showing disdain, aggression, and disrespect in communication with AI/LLM things is more likely to be dangerous as one is conditioning themselves to be disdainful, aggressive, and disrespectful when communicating with the same methods used to communicate with other people. Our brains do a great job at association, so, it's basically just training oneself to be an asshole.
