Yeah, generating some ideas to get you going might be the best use for this kind of stuff.

The fundamental problem is that at the end of the day it’s just a glorified Markov chain. LLM doesn’t have any actual understanding of what it produces in a human sense, it just knows that particular sets of tokens tend to go together in the data it’s been trained on. GPT mechanic could very well be a useful building block for making learning systems, but a lot more work will need to be done before they can actually be said to understand anything in a meaningful way.

I suspect that to make a real AI we have to embody it in either a robot or a virtual avatar where it would learn to interact with its environment the way a child does. The AI has to build an internal representation of the physical world and its rules. Then we can teach it language using this common context where it would associate words with its understanding of the world. This kind of a shared context is essential for having AI understand things the way we do.

Right, I expect stuff like stable diffusion will become a part of the toolkit actual artists use. The workflows with this stuff are already getting pretty intricate where people use control net for posing, and inpainting of specific details, and so on. I would liken it to doing photography. You can’t just give a camera to anybody and get good results, it takes a person with a skill and taste to produce an interesting image.

about the quality of reporting we’ve come to expect from western press

That’s right, it’s the best system possible and we should never question it.

That’s right, CIA trained death squads will educate you on the virtues of freedom and democracy.

If you mean the west is going into a recession and demand is shrinking then sure.

China hasn’t been at war since the 70s while US has been at at war for 92% of its deplorable existence. Anybody who supports US over China is utterly morally bankrupt.

The contradictions are sharpening.

Recent data point to a swiftly fading rebound in China from the reopening at end-2022, but GDP growth should still remain above the 2023 government target of 5% as consumption normalises and policy support buttresses infrastructure investment, says Fitch Ratings. We expect growth to hold up relatively well, albeit on a slowing trajectory, at 4.8% in 2024 and 4.7% in 2025..

Meanwhile, US economy has been buttressed by cannibalizing Europe where things are rapidly deteriorating.

You joke, but just wait till the billionaires start enacting geoengineering schemes unilaterally.

yogthos OP ,
@yogthos@lemmy.ml avatar

Hubris is the reason why billionaires do what they do most of the time. Trying to do geoengineering is precisely the kind of a grand scheme these people would try.

yogthos OP ,
@yogthos@lemmy.ml avatar

Yeah, the emissions we output can definitely be seen as inadvertent geoingeneering.

yogthos OP ,
@yogthos@lemmy.ml avatar

Same, also seen proposals for doing stuff like seeding reflective particles in the atmosphere and other wild ideas. I fully expect that at some point it’s going to come to that because the disasters are going to lead to desperate measures.

Absolutely, it’s becoming increasingly clear that a system based on constant growth and consumerism is not compatible with sustaining the biosphere we all depend on in order to exist. Capitalism is driving us, along with most complex life on this planet, towards extinction.

Oh yeah, that’s absolutely the right term to use.

The more independent tests come out the less it’s looking like this is a superconductor. There might still be something interesting going on here, but I’m becoming skeptical of the original claims myself.

Indeed

China’s been working on these trains for over a decade now, there’s nothing sudden about it. Also weird to think that what Japan did can’t be replicated, if you look at the picture of the actual Chinese maglev train it too has a large nose structure www.cnn.com/travel/article/…/index.html

yogthos OP ,
@yogthos@lemmy.ml avatar

That’s the huge advantage of trains in my opinion. Instead of having to drive out to the airport, and deal with check in, boarding, and so on, you just go to the train station downtown and get off downtown of the city you want to go to. That alone saves a ton of time and hassle.

yogthos OP ,
@yogthos@lemmy.ml avatar

That’s not very common for a good reason given that airports create a lot of noise pollution.

Passenger trains are a lot less loud than planes taking off www.chem.purdue.edu/chemsafety/…/dblevels.htm

edit; to the coupe of people who follow me around downvoting my every comment, thanks for letting me know that I live rent free in your heads

yogthos OP ,
@yogthos@lemmy.ml avatar

Yeah, no content is worth it in my opinion.

yogthos ,
@yogthos@lemmy.ml avatar

That’s right, I make my views clear and if that upsets you then it’s your problem.

yogthos ,
@yogthos@lemmy.ml avatar

Except I generally post from mainstream western sources which makes you a liar. You can keep on seething there as much as you like though, cause I’m not going anywhere.

yogthos ,
@yogthos@lemmy.ml avatar

I mean it would look better for you if you were drunk. The fact that you make these comments sober makes it all the more hilarious.

At least learn what ad hominem is if you’re going to use it to try and sound smart. What people should be looking at is your post history. Now that’s what an actual propagandist shill looks like.

yogthos ,
@yogthos@lemmy.ml avatar

Claiming that I lied relies on people not looking through my post history. You’re so bad at this, it’s frankly embarrassing.

yogthos ,
@yogthos@lemmy.ml avatar

Ad hominem would be me saying you’re wrong because of your personal qualities. I’m saying you’re wrong and you’re deplorable not that you’re wrong because you’re deplorable. Ad hominem is actually what you’re doing. You’re trying to discredit my posts by making personal attacks on me, but you never engage with the actual content of my posts. Seems like you’ve taken the whole day here to make a clown of yourself, but failed to take the 30 seconds to address anything I said. Bye troll.

yogthos ,
@yogthos@lemmy.ml avatar

not to you obviously

yogthos ,
@yogthos@lemmy.ml avatar

Literally all you’ve done was make personal attacks on me, and never actually made a single point of your own. You don’t know what ad hominem is, you didn’t have a position to attack dumb ass. People being mean to you isn’t ad hominem. What attempt can there be at a discussion with a troll who screeches about propagandists when presented with facts. You’re a sad clown and you just provide free entertainment for the rest of us. That’s your lot in life.
