The guilt and shame is brutal, and shouldn’t be used to try to change someone into behaving better. It’s like spanking you kids, which is illegal now (at least whew I’m at).

Same, but the community was great. Being around people that understand is so beneficial.
I had 2 interventions in my life and neither worked. In fact, they made it much worse for me.
I suggest that you go to AlAnon and learn a bit about alcoholism before trying anything (btw, AlAnon is not AA, but is a program to help non-alcoholics understand what they’re dealing with.)
Your friend is lucky to have you. Don’t give up on them. It truly is hellish, and they’ll need your support.
Did you,… hrm,… did you even take classes about this stuff. Ffs, this is why this career pays well: you have to understand complicated things.
Maybe your issue is with Windows. I suggest moving away from that platform.
Dynamic libraries are essential to computing, and allow us to partition out pieces of the code. One giant library would have to be recompiled with every change.
You JUST realized that. 🙄
Reminds me of a scene from Waterworld. The guy in the back side knows how loud it is.
RISC-V will supercede it. ARM became quite a nasty company in its later years.
Oh well, good riddance.
I just want a chip manufacturer that isn’t gonna bug my home! Hopefully someone comes along, takes the RISC-V specs, and makes a truly open-source chip!
Definitely.
Why have a law about it if you never intend to use said law?
It sounds like you know english words but cannot compose them. I honestly cannot parse what you said.
I don’t even think that matters much, right? Current LLMs already out-compete humans at many tasks. I think we’re already past the threshold, at least in some regards. That is to say, I don’t think there is a hard line because it depends on what your testing criteria are.
So when it happens, you’ll change your mind? My point is that what we have today is based on interactions in the human brain: neural networks. You can say, “They’re just guessing the next word based on mathematical models”, but isn’t that exactly what you’re doing?
Point to the reason why what comes out of your mouth is any different. Is it because your network is bigger and more complicated? If that’s the case GPT-4 is closer to being human than GPT-3 was, being a larger model.
I just don’t get your point at all.
Just saw this today. You should check it out, nitwit: https://www.theguardian.com/science/2023/aug/15/scientists-reconstruct-pink-floyd-song-by-listening-to-peoples-brainwaves
Edit: “nitwit” was uncalled for, but I do think you are an ignorant person.
You aren’t magical. You don’t have a soul that talks to Jesus. You’re a bunch of organized electrical signals—a machine. Because your machine is carbon-based doesn’t make you special.
Edit: Downvote all you want, but we’re all still animals. Most people don’t even believe that simple fact. Then again, most people don’t even understand how their cellphone works.
Very much like humans do. Many people think that somehow their brain is special, but really, you’re just neurons behaving as neurons do, which can be modeled mathematically.
It is crazy that this isn’t a United States problem, either. All one has to do is look to Australia, Canada, and the UK to see that fascism is rampant. I’m looking for those brightest minds, because I’m certainly not one of them.
Uh, I think those that are inclined have already acknowledged this. The others are very likely a lost cause, if this recent spate of reporting hasn’t convinced them that Trump is a freaking manipulator and crook. Where do we go from here? I don’t know how so many extremists could possibly just, you know, stop being so extreme. Naively, a civil war could fix the issue, but that is the last thing we need–war is never the answer.
I like this take. Being a jack-of-all-trades means I always feel like I’m not good at anything. It does take all kinds to make the world go 'round, though.
My hobbies are almost exclusively outdoors activities. I want to be as far away from a computer as possible when I get off work.
Yay! Glad they finally put this to rest. I was hopeful but extremely pessimistic about it, and now we know.
It’s so cool to me how many specialists we have around the world, like Jain (the copper-sulfide expert). That’s such a very specific thing to be an expert about.
In my work in devops with a start-up, I’m expected to know a bit about everything. I’m a bit jealous of Jain’s extremely narrow focus, lol.
I can back up that claim by pointing to the popularity of other search engines. People are now even paying to search because Google has become a nightmare due to SEO.
As to your other question: did you even read the other comments on this thread before you jumped to Google’s defense?
I used to totally be a Google fanboy, like you still are, but they’re failing us, dude, and somewhere deep down, I think you realize that.
Many of the programs recommend therapy first. No one wants to drink themselves to death, even though it feels like that sometimes.
