One of the things I’d like to do is explore complex geometry, just because i think its cool. Just because a machine is at the frontier doesn’t stop me from deriving meaning from it, just like the existence of great artists shouldn’t stop anyone from painting. The chance that you make it big enough to have significant impact on society has been pretty slim regardless even without ai.
Again, as a chatgpt pro user… what the fuck is google doing to fuck up this bad.
This is so comically bad i almost have to assume its on purpose? An internal team gone rogue, or a very calculated move to fuel ai hate and then shift to a “sorry, we learned from our mistakes, come to us to avoid ai instead”
Occasionally I have these days where I don’t feel like doing work or chores. So I’m thinking, why not just enjoy myself, do something that interests me?...
Personally i find mediating outside to be incredible satisfying experience. It still takes allot to get motivated and actually do it, but i have never regretted doing so and i am more motivated to do things back inside after.
Rather then doomscrolling i then actually continue the game or book i told myself i was gonna finish months ago.
The key as i have found it for my person is to be at psychological balance. Cognitive zen.
Easier said then done and i still end up wasting time scrolling most days but theres something “real” there and i haven’t found a better direction that resembles the true path of living a full life.
Also a good idea for people like us is to delve into a nerd hobby with outside applications. Astronomy, Geology . Ecology. I am having a great time just properly identifying things in nature other then “stars, rocks and plants”
Without additional information that seems more likely but its at least portrayed here as a real display.
It would still be a very interesting idea to rather make everything a display make everything a zero energy AR surface but then we need convenient mainstream AR wearables.
Correct, i kept it simple on purpose and could probably have worded it better.
It was a meant as a broader statement including “both publicly available free to download models like those based on the ollama architectures as well as free to acces proprietary llm’s like gpt3.5”
I personally tried variations of the vicuna, wizardLM and a few other models (mostly 30B, bigger was to slow) which are all based on ollama’s architecture but i consider those individual names to be less known.
Neither of these impressed me all that much. But of course this is a really fast changing industry. Looking at the hf leaderboard i don’t see any of the models i tried. Last time i checked was January.
I may also have an experience bias as i have become much more effective using gpt4 as a tool compared to when i just started to use it. This influences what I expect and how i write prompts for other models.
I’d be happy to try some new models that have since archived new levels. I am huge supporter for self-hosting digital tools and frankly i cant wait to stop funding ClosedAi
Having tried many different models on my machine and being a long-time GPT-4 user, I can say the self-hosted models are far more impressive in sheer power for their size. However, the good ones still require a GPU that most people nor teenagers can’t afford.
Nonetheless, GPT-4 remains the most powerful and useful model, and it’s not even a competition. Even Google’s Gemini doesn’t compare, in my experience.
The potential for misuse increases alongside usefulness and power. I wouldn’t use Ollama or GPT-3.5 for my professional work because they’re just not reliable enough. However, GPT-4, despite also having its useless moments, is almost essential.
The same holds true for scammers and malicious actors. GPT-4’s voice will technically allow live, fluent conversations through a phone using a dynamic voice. That’s the holy grail for scamcallers. OpenAI is right to want to eliminate as much abuse of their system as possible before releasing such a thing.
There is an argument to be made for not releasing such dangerous tools, but the counter is that someone malicious will inevitably release it someday. It’s better to be prepared and understand these systems before that happens. At least i think thats what OpenAi believes, i am not sure what to think. How could i known they Arent malicious?
If your talking about neurodivergence, i don’t think boss should assume ops needs a 1 on 1 class even if op is in fact on the spectrum.
I would really struggle with such a thing, were still unique and i need text based information to understand as I cannot pay (actual) attention to a talking person, only fake it which is not useful.
It would eventually burn me out.
At my job i came forewards about my autism and as a result were able to have open conversations about what accommodations i do and do not need.

Destroying items is destruction of property, usually that is a crime but its farm from terrorism. Unless you really believe that ceo’s are cowering under their beds in fear because first a gaspump, second must be storming their private islands with guns?
Just like with other laws there are exceptions where something does and does not count as a crime.
Accidentally killing a home invader in self defense isn’t murder either.
Obviously i dont know what truly goes on in any judges head but considering that industrialist have been actively involved in covering up how much environmental damage they have actually done to populated areas. (Exploit underground water during times of drought causing cracks and collapses in hundreds of familie homes to give you a single example of something i know happens)
If one considers that i believe there is a good argument agains dismantling the tools of oil companies in the name of self defense.
Industries should not pretend to feel terrorizes by some ecologists and climate conscious youth. The people are getting terrorizing by systemic exploitation of commons for nothing but the greed of a few for ages.
“ The meme references a somewhat obscure feature from older versions of Microsoft Windows called “Briefcase.” Here’s a brief explanation:
Windows Briefcase:
• Introduced in Windows 95 and present in several subsequent versions, the Briefcase was a special folder designed to help users keep files in sync between two locations, typically between a desktop and a laptop.
• You could create a Briefcase on your computer, add files to it, and then copy that Briefcase to another location, such as a floppy disk or another drive.
• When you made changes to the files on either location, you could use the Briefcase to update the files on both sides by synchronizing them. This feature was particularly useful in the era before widespread use of networked file sharing and cloud storage.
The meme humorously challenges a supposed “Windows expert” to explain this somewhat outdated and lesser-known feature, implying that true expertise includes knowledge of such old functionalities.”
Forget swiping your card - thanks to a banner year for biometric payments, with JPMorgan and Mastercard joining the fray, paying with your face could soon be your new reality.
Before long every cashier is going to request a smile from you, scripted as the most friendly way to say “please let me shov this scanner on your face”
The psychological effect of being requested to smile every time you make a purchase will reinforce your behavior to purchase more and appear less miserable keeping up the illusion that everything is cool and normal.
I am just talking from my ass but gotta remember that the ceos species have their asshole below their nose.

The biggest tell is how people who identify as left all hete Bidden.
Theres a famous comment by nixons right hand on the war on drugs. They wanted to get rid of the
“anti-war left”
The same anti war left is currently involved in global protests against the genocide in Palestine. That phenomenon is not just the US, Its was not reported in any news i saw but i know off at least one more then a week long building getting occupied in a university in europe.
The Bidden administration has very recently low key responded to these protest by changing the definition of antisemitism to interpret the state of Israel as a jewish collective. Therefor any critics of the state of Israel becomes a crime.
Where are the laws they did they enact when nazis where marching the streets and cultists stormed a government building? Yes some are jailed after a long time, its similar to the pride flags. The occasional token bone to pretend to card.
Theres the general the unwielding support for the genecide. Bombing civilian tents with us weapons did not cross any red lines to continue to provide so.
Is it a coincidence that the victims are all muslim? As a lefty i preach tolerance. Also for the existence off dumb religions overseas that may not be so tolerant of my freedom in person.
Also right leaning:
pro corporate, America is a capitalist country but business with the same right as people is the opposite of woke.
war on drugs still very much exists
still no social healthcare like basically every other western nation.
I get its often not as simple as flick a switch to solve issues and many issues are systematically grown. But people have been yelling Bidden to use some of that presidential power and him doing it now to restrict asylum which is also a right leaning thing to do is a cherry on top of all the lies.
People should still vote and the most left you can vote is D but i am really hopping that once the threat of Trump is gone there becomes some room to roast them in a national protest.
Facism-light. As in Right with authoritarian tendencies who are in bed with the corporations. The Democrats are not Nazis, there just don’t mind them.
I am against assault of any kind, Our biggest concern should be fixing the damn ecosystems of our planet. Everything else is a distraction. The economy can be worth wadever people believe it is but its not worth nothing if we go extinct.
Even in Europe some progressive parties are shifting to the right and social healthcare is getting eroded.
I get that we can’t just all stop going to work cause i am still being a cog in the machine that destroys itself myself but holy fuck can we got someone good in charge?
