  • Interesting that a mere 5 million samples could train ChatGPT so strongly. I see attack vectors.

    I predict that like Akinator the beginning will be smart till the internet trolls feed it garbage. From there on put it will be severely flawed

  • What forcing function is there to make sure Trump's lawyers are actually looking over the evidence. I strongly suspect that they are being given time to look over discovery but are merely planning on throwing out another excuse when May comes by. Those excuses will likely sound like, "well we need more time, nevermind the fact that we actually had time to do the thing."

  • Is this new law allowing the police to go to carrier companies and demanding to know the phone numbers of people near the riots, or is this closer to the police using your camera without your permission? I would have thought security restrictions on devices would have blocked such intrusive ability.

  • It depends on what you consider spying. The vast majority of devices want some form of push notification capability, which requires being connected to Microsoft/Google/Apple servers, and thus the company knows your IP address. But doing pretty much anything on the internet and you expose your IP address.

    If what you mean by spying you think it is looking at what app/program you are doing, recording your keystrokes, recording what your camera sees, the vast majority of devices don't do any of this. Those are done on hacked laptops and school laptop admins that are either creepy and unchecked or overly intrusive.

    Somewhere between these two extremes you would say it crosses the boundary into spying. You don't need a custom OS to stop it unless you your threshold is all the way to the push notification level.

  • The problem isn't the exact rate, it is their ability to pay for tax experts so they can avoid having most of their wealth taxed at all. This is why Biden wanted to beef up the IRS and sic them on billionaires. Scrutinize the cracks they slip through.

  • Wasn't there an attempt to have electors vote for whoever wins the popular vote. It was contingent on enough states joining forces. I forgot what it's name is, but wouldn't such a thing rely on electors being able to vote dynamically?

  • Spain also tried to tell Google News to pay up for what they offered for free to people. Google simply shut it down. I haven't checked up to see if news agencies floundered, went elsewhere or thrived as the rich touted would happen.

    Canada is claiming the same issues. I suspect there is a symbiotic relationship between news agencies and social media that connects eyes with publishers.

    I agree with the general sentiment that Facebook users are more siloed than those heading to Google News. But paying to show a snippet just isn't feasible.

  • He may be trying to give Pootin a way to blame the ministry of defense for providing Pootin, Wagner and the Russian people false information. A way for Pootin to blame someone not named prigozhin. Sadly with the ministry of defense making public statements against prigozhin they are trying to force Pootin to pick between the two. Either way it is a win for us.

  • AI doesn't really exist yet. Media, back in 1870, called Tesla's magnetically controlled boat artificial intelligence, and again in the 80s when computer scientists invented the game of life. But even now nothing we've made so far can do decision making. ChatGPT, the smartest out there, is really just a versatile prediction engine.

    Imagine if I said, "once upon a" and asked you to come up with the next word, you'd say, "time" as you've heard that phrase hundreds of times. I then asked you to come up with the next word, and the next you might start telling me about a princess locked in a tall tower protected by a dragon. These are all stereotypical elements of a "once upon a time" story. Nothing creative, just typical. Chat GPT has just read way more than you or I ever could and is really good at knowing more stereotypical stories and mixing them together. There is no "what is best for humanity" only "once upon a time..."-made up stories.
