Tl;Dr AI suggested adding glue to pizza to make the cheese stick. Sourced from 11 year old reddit post.
These are all good fun to mock until someone actually gets hurt taking these responses literally.
I'm torn. I've thrown my share of shade at #LLM s and the rush to shove "AI" into everything, and even what they do well, one can argue if it's worth the cost.
#mindfullness and #gratitude on a daily basis can be at odds with existential dread and fear for the future. It creates a good bit of cognitive dissonance.
Even the #LMM 's are on our side on this one. I had one create a fictional persona of an "average American" and it came up with a cisgendered midwest father of two, mildly conservative, that I could ask questions of. "He" fixes cars.
llama3-70b has internalized some of our more idealistic self-myths, of the US, and I don't think that's a bad thing.
Any building civil engineer tyoes out there who could opine on this?
Structurally, could you build a human habitation house out of name-brand Legos? Do they have enough structural strength? Would it be more or less earthquake safe than, say bricks(not very) or other materials?
How many layers thick would you have to make a Lego floor to support a 100 kg human?
@arose62@pseudonym I skimmed the video. they were aiming for Lego-only structure, but had trouble with making durable support beams. They seemed to think it was possible, but for insurance reasons ended up using a wooden frame for structure. So, not pure Lego construction. Waterproofing was also an issue.
I'd love to see #ubi in place for all Americans. Like others, I agree that taxing billionaires, companies, reducing military spending, and such would all be good sources. But to my untrained math mind, it still doesn't add up.
Order of magnitude: GDP ~20 trillion $/yr, Population 330 million.
Assume $10 /person / day. (Not enough, I know) But even that modest number would be over a trillion a year.
That's 5% of GDP to buy everyone a nice sandwich a day.
I don’t know….that doesn’t sound half bad to me! Obviously 5% of GDP is a lot, but it doesn’t seem totally infeasible.
And a sandwich a day might not sound like a lot but $300 per month isn’t nothing, and that calculation included the whole population, including kids. So, if a family of 5 is getting $1500 per month, it seems like a useful chunk of money.
And the #ubi is on top of whatever people make working, no strings attached.
@pseudonym To be fair #UBI is a nice concept but it’s just a mechanism to avoid capitalism collapsing on itself. It doesn’t address the root causes of poverty.
If the government just printed money (and it could) to build houses for people until every family owned one with no mortgage all the calculations would seem different. But rest assured that the powers in place will get you fascism before that.
No, interstitial pop-up, I will not be recommending your software to my friends, because: a) I'm not in the habit of chatting about SaaS products with my friends at all, but more importantly, b) you are interfering with my workflow while I'm trying to use your software for $thing and prompting me now is the worst experience you could provide.
