@ShredderFeeder@mhoye it's fine if you don't want one or it doesn't suit your needs. You can just say that without suggesting EVs are bad for everyone.
@tankgrrl@flargh definitely an elf house. They are big into the elves. If you visit the Blue Lagoon, definitely go to the "story time" to hear the tale of how the elves interfered with construction plans!
There's this unproven assumption that "we just need to train it more" is the solution to generative AI lying and being generally mid.
What really happens is that with more data, it will approach absolute midness.
If they (as they plan) try to feed to generated-by-AI text to "learn" it will even regress (actually a good Bible quote for this, "as a dog returns to his vomit, so a fool returns to his folly").
@thomasfuchs That assumption could be correct if you train it with good and reliable sources. Can't wait to read Yahoo Answers generated by an engine trained on Yahoo Answers!
For those who aren’t aware, Microsoft have decided to bake essentially an infostealer into base Windows OS and enable by default.
From the Microsoft FAQ: “Note that Recall does not perform content moderation. It will not hide information such as passwords or financial account numbers."
Info is stored locally - but rather than something like Redline stealing your local browser password vault, now they can just steal the last 3 months of everything you’ve typed and viewed in one database.
Who are the people who constantly need AI to make summaries of emails and then go and generate a thousand-word email because a single sentence “isn’t professional”
@thomasfuchs Molly White had a great article addressing this - if we all use AI to do tasks, we should probably question whether those tasks even need doing. I basically just ignore emails that are too long. Ain't nobody got time for that crap. "This email could have been a much shorter email"
Picture of the day: An ocellaris clownfish dancing among the tentacles of its anemone host. These fish were everywhere in Dumaguete, Philippines but they are in constant motion, so they are not easy to capture.
@snowgaze I've been confronted by other damselfish species. The Ocellaris in my fish tank is constantly trying to nip me, so I wear wetsuit gloves when I'm scraping.
"Next steps for the project could include follow-up observations by the James Webb Space Telescope, which would deliver important insights into the planet's surface mineralogy, and the potential for an atmosphere."
@spelled_with_a_k@Phreba they've set the threshold to "goalie gets yeeted into the stands from the crease by significant contact" and there's no going back now.
