ah yes the only way to make LLMs, a technology built on plagiarism with no known use case, “not silly” is to throw a shitload of money at Apple or framework or whichever vendor decided to sell pickaxes this time for more RAM. yes, very interesting, thank you, fuck off
ah yes the only way to make LLMs, a technology built on plagiarism with no known use case, “useful for any actual ai application” is to throw a shitload of money at nvidia. weird how that works!
oof, I’m sorry you’re caught in the middle of this crap; it’s not a great feeling to be put into this kind of situation.
take this with a grain of salt because I’m exhausted from a hell workweek, but this felt like a thread you could pull on:
I know they have no dedicated resources because they are actively hiring their first staff member for this niche and said so in a recent job advertisement.
if their AI horseshit is doing so well in your niche, why are they hiring for it? that’s fucking weird, right? use your best judgement, but be as aggressive with your questions as feels appropriate.
also, and I hope this isn’t too obvious: you’re in the middle of a vapid power game between two sociopaths who lie for a living (and the pilfered livings of many other people). craft your questions and statements with that in mind — you’re there to sell the idea that the opposing executive has done something foolish, so come up with responses to the potential bullshit these professional bullshitters might fling at you (“the new hire is just to train/support/monitor the AI” “oh, but wasn’t it already a success? that doesn’t sound very efficient, can you go into more detail?”). one of the biggest mistakes I’ve made in similar situations is to stress absolute truth and precision in conversation — and it’s a trap that a lot of tech people fall into, that the executive class tends to use as a mechanism for control. the truth is on our side but these people don’t give a fuck about that, so sell them a story.
it’d be really weird you didn’t do even a tiny amount of reading into the research by DAIR and other organizations studying the interplay between AI and racism before shitting this post out into our thread, but I’ve seen your takes on transphobia and they’re somehow even more inane so please feel free to go fuck yourself
riskable, sibling, please take this as advice:
you should’ve stuck to things you know like the coefficient of friction of PETG, magnetic field interactions, or any other topic where your output isn’t this absolute buffoon shit
deezer seems to rightfully consider being flooded with lazy AI slop a problem:
Herault added that a detection tool launched in January was helping the company filter fully AI-generated tracks from the algorithmic recommendations for its 9.7 million subscribers.
Drake used AI to duo with Tupac in one of his songs
this is something different from what the article’s talking about, but also that sounds tacky as fuck
so like a fool I decided to search the web. specifically for which network protocol Lisp REPLs use these days (is it nREPL? or is that just a clojure thing with ambitions?)
and the first extremely SEOed result on ddg was this bizarre blend of an obscure research lisp from 2012 and LLM articles about how Lisp is used in mental health:
Numerous applications and tools are being developed to support mental health and wellness. Among the varied programming languages at the forefront, Lisp stands out due to its unique capabilities in cognitive modeling and behavior analysis.
so I know exactly what this is, but why is this? what even is the game here?
to quote the red ink on your last CS exam: Jesse, what the fuck are you talking about
yeh I know, so calling out zk proofs as “the technology behind crypto” really reads like calling hydrogen gas “the technology behind the Hindenburg”, doesn’t it.
you and your friend really should have spent any time at all looking into who runs worldcoin and how fucking monstrously dystopian it is before rushing into buttcoin of all places to defend the “valid use of the technology behind crypto” (????) you both imagined existed in the OP’s screenshot
also you’re right, I was unfair towards cubism_pitta. I wasn’t enough of an asshole.
hey fuckers. next time you get the sudden, overwhelming urge to jack off in public about how much money you’re feeding into the machine that does plagiarism and nothing else, keep it the fuck off my instance.
