I’ve gotten ads for things I’ve just thought about. Never said anything out loud about or did any searches related to. It was something in a video I’ve watched dozens of videos about in the past. But on this occasion, I happened to think that I kind of want one for the first time. And I just so happened to start getting ads for them right after, also for the first time. They know way more about you than you think and don’t need to listen to you.

Not super familiar with it, but they have some sort of psychic field that turns their beliefs into reality. Pretty much all their technology only works because they believe it does

They’re doing pretty well with solar and electric vehicles too

No…that’s the Republican Party platform. The current Democratic Party is very much about make the government work for the people and do at least something to rein in the rich and corporations

I don’t know if I’ve ever seen a clearer choice between good and evil in real life. Crazy that it’s such a difficult one for this country…

Well, I suspect he was very much ready to kill him

Great…now how about all the Russian puppet and bot accounts

I’m sure I got some from meats still, but I tried to avoid it to the extent possible. I had some other issues going on. What are the hormone impacts?

Body fat is more related to diet than exercise. Reduce calories eaten and fat will go down eventually. I stopped eating any fat for a while and my body fat dropped really fast.

On the environmental question, AI tools are energy agnostic. If humans using electricity can be environmentally sustainable at all, so can AI. I suspect the energy requirements are going to drop drastically as more specialized hardware is developed.

There are already a lot of great things they can do in the category of generating content for enjoyment. Both art and text based. One of the most popular twitch streamers uses a language model. Games and interactive experiences can be much more realistic and responsive now. As far as I can tell, a lot of people are benefiting from the ability to ask a question and get an expert level answer on most topics that is correct at least half the time. And this is just the infancy of the technology.

As far as well meaning people, a lot of people working on the technology are researchers and computer scientists who legitimately believe in the potential for good of the technology. Of course, there are people who don’t care and only want profit also, but that’s true of basically every company. So you could probably accurately say it’s being worked on by any type of person in that spectrum, but you can’t say the opposite and deny that well meaning people are creating it.

I would disagree with the answers to all those questions

I mean, yes, technically you build and run AI models using code. The point is there is no code defining the game logic or graphical rendering. It’s all statistical predictions of what should happen next in a game of doom by a neural network. The entirety of the game itself is learned weights within the model. Nobody coded any part of the actual game. No code was generated to run the game. It’s entirely represented within the model.

I’m not sure I see poor performance by volunteer moderators on a service tangential at best to the development of open source server software as a moral issue with that software in any way. But as you said, you’re free to disagree.

If your only issue is with the official server, why would you not just use matrix but join a different server?

To some extent

Damnit, Ame

The company didn’t run the campaign. They didn’t know what was being transmitted. Their crime was being too trusting of their customer and signing off on the calls without enough scrutiny.

That’s just the telecom company that transmitted the calls. If you read the posted text from the article, the guy who did it is facing criminal charges and a $6m fine

The current Republican Party is anti conservative in a lot of ways, but those terms have become roughly synonymous

The bars were originally 5 compared to 9 ingredients in a Hersheys bar. They’ve since expanded and now both have 9 from what I’ve heard
