There’s a pretty big gap “making it on the news to raise awareness for your cause” and “mastabatory shitposting on social media”
dude isn’t sneaking video evidence of wrongdoing out of a factory farm… just photoshopping bad dentures on sharks.
I agree that any movement needs both friendly and provocative advocacy to affect change, but the only thing these types of posts accomplish is helping OP feel superior.
You know how Google’s new feature called AI Overviews is prone to spitting out wildly incorrect answers to search queries? In one instance, AI Overviews told a user to use glue on pizza to make sure the cheese won’t slide off (pssst…please don’t do this.)...
Role a d20 and d4. If the d20 result is less than the caster’s wisdom saving throw, collect <d4 result> lemonade (healing item). Otherwise, the caster must pass a constitution saving throw or become blinded and silenced from lemon juice in the face and mouth.
Because the chain of command needs to be embedded enough into your psyche to override your fight/flight response. Same reason we spend our entire careers in the military practicing war. When it’s real, you can’t freeze up or get flustered…your job also has to be so well practiced that you can do it instinctively, because when you’re getting shot at, instinct is sometimes all you’ve got left.
Probably because volume increases faster than surface area.
Edit: To expand on that, assume the Queen Mary is an airtight cube. A small model of the cube might have 1m sides, with a volume of 1m³. If the real cube had sides of 3m, it would have a volume of 27m³. Buoyancy is a function of the volume of water displaced by an object, so since volume increases so much faster than surface area (and, by extension, weight), the larger cube would displace enough water to overcome its weight where the smaller one wouldn’t.
For 50 years, science has been telling us that we’re well and truly fucked if we don’t do something about climate change. We didn’t. I don’t think the species is gonna die out (thought millions of other species will and are). You’re talking like we’re gonna be building a Dyson sphere (or swarm) in the next 20 years? Or colonize outer planets? It’s science fiction…at least for next few 100 years. We can’t rely on a deus ex machina save…we gotta take care of the planet we evolved to live on…if we aren’t strong enough for that, I don’t think we’re getting anywhere near K-II.

Technically, I think it would be a body transplant, not a head transplant, and the transplanted organ would actually reject you since the immune system is part of the body, not the head.

Same here. It’s good for writing your basic unit tests, and the explain feature is useful getting for getting your head wrapped around complex syntax, especially as bad as searching for useful documentation has gotten on Google and ddg.
Everyone I know who’s interested in raw milk probably has a few crates of ivermectin left over from the pandemic…should be plenty to keep them safe from the flu, too. /s
When you train an LLM on a strictly curated and verified dataset that is limited in scope, it will do a very good job providing you with information about that specific topic and should hopefully give you the “As an LLM, I don’t know about that…” speil for anything else.
When you let an LLM “do its own research” (e.g. train it on internet content) it starts telling you to put glue on pizza, eat a healthy number of rocks every day, and that you can run in the air as long as you don’t look down.
Maybe they really are already as smart as people. /s
Public libraries are supposed to be places for communities to gather and learn, with an important focus on being a place for kids to gain access to information. But thanks to a moral panic in the GOP about “indoctrination” in libraries, it seems that at least one library has decided to shut its door to children....
There is no restriction on books that will hurt these people, just as there is no restriction on flying helicopters that hurts me. I am unable to fly helicopters and have little interest in learning.
There’s a saying…“Knowledge is knowing a tomato is a fruit. Wisdom is knowing not to put it in fruit salad.”
Meanwhile, LLMs are telling us to put glue on pizza so the cheese sticks. Even if the technology could eventually deliver on the promise, by the time we get there, nobody intelligent will trust it because the tech bros are, again, throwing half-baked garbage out into the world to try and be first to market.
I have noticed lately that several sites I’ve tried to login to, some I already have an account, some I am trying to make a new account give me what seems like endless captchas....
What would be better is polluting the software with invalid but still plausible constraints, so the chips would seem OK and might work for days or weeks but would fail in the field… especially if these chips are used in weapon systems or critical infrastructure.
