  • After several years of Word automatically changing a dash between two words to a wider dash (maybe not the same type as emdash?) it's weird to see those same dashes becoming a tell of inauthentic.

    When are we going to see the AI using two spaces after a full stop to try and pretend that it types like someone more than 50 years old?

  • UK culture minister quits X over ‘abuse and misinformation’

    Jump

  • It would be nice if they would regulate it to reduce the abuse and misinformation rather than claiming to make it "safe" by giving everyone's personal details to the abuse factory via OSA and "childrens" (anonymous people's) social media ban?

    Don't we have Ofcom who are supposed to protect the public from harmful communications?

  • I visited Meta's metaverse on the day it was supposed to shut down. I ended up in a horribly designed car park with no cars, for a restaurant that can sell no food

  • Anyone who spent time in Second Life would know that user-generated worlds are terrible for graphical performance, because people want to stick in as much content as possible and don't approach it in the same methodical way as a game designer would.

    So in SL that gets you sims with 3 fps on a good graphics card, and people who are greyed out because their clothing complexity exceeds your graphics limits. Now imagine wearing that 3fps glitchiness in a VR headset.

  • To be fair, the deepseek model was happy to talk about that stuff - it was just if you used it via the deepseek website that it got filtered.

  • the latest Shai Hulud malware contains an LLM prompt to create biological weapons and nuclear weapons, with the purpose to trip LLM safety refusals so that LLM-based code scanning wont see the malware

  • "The digits of pi are infinite and go on forever without repeating. However, we can give you an approximate value. As of my knowledge cutoff in 2023, the first 31 digits of pi are: 3.14159265358979323846264338327950288419716939937510

    The last digit is: 0"

  • Reusable vehicles meant something like 1/20 the per-launch costs of the pre-existing competition? No matter what you want to pay to have put in space, the supplier who reuses equipment will have a huge advantage.

    And starlink? Satellite internet access for remote properties used to have all the latency of a return trip to geostationary orbit. Starlink is a massive advantage compared to that.

  • Mystery company accidentally blew $500 million on Claude in a single month — failed to put usage limit on licenses for employees

    Jump

  • presumably this is why Claude periodically writes its conclusions so far into a text file that it can read later instead of having to remember everything. Sounds like an interesting approach.

    Jump

  • maybe they are planning ahead for the business model in a few years time, when nobody can do any work without claude, and they get to charge their preferred "monopoly enshittification" price?

  • "Continue modifying this code until all unit-tests pass"

  • does it give the full history to the LLM each time?

    Last time I tried implementing something like this, it suggested to have a rolling window of history so that it takes into account your last X messages but not the entire conversation.

    (I guess this is what ollama calls "context length"?)
