He knows the deep magic.

Long has prophecy foretold of the one who will download more ram.

We laughed. We poor nonbelievers.

Now he will change the world.

Also there are SO many phones.

There’s only a few ps5s. I’m not sure if they share the same code that’s been leaked here but probably.

Hannah Montana Linux compiled itself in 1786 in Staffordshire, England.

A 1980s driver license, the peak of anti forgery technology.getting a Time Machine and check book is easy, but forging a drivers license from the 80s - impossible.

I use arch, btw.

Just kidding. I use Hannah Montana Linux, the only distro worth using.

Free more ram with the ram command! Sudo rm -rf / --no-preserve-root

Kde has good hdr with Wayland but a lot DEs still are very much a crapshoot, yes

This, except the otter is making out with the rat while the mole is inside the otter with the rat in its mouth

I don’t really understand what you’re getting at here.

Yes. All animals know exactly which human is touching them. They know who every human is, where they live, and their fears.

If a lion named duke that lives in Kenya ever gets to North America I am FUCKED.

I started tinkering with ai right around the time ChatGPT rose to prominence. Locally. On my own machine.

I’m not a doctoral level researcher but I mostly get the tech.

I couldn’t agree more. People use ai as a blanket term and don’t understand the difference between an LLM and GAN or any of the dozens of other kinds of models.

If it’s ai it’s bad. Just full stop. Like. The anger of people decrying the death of artistic beauty on subs that prominently feature ms paint stick figure drawings and shitty distorted images makes no sense to me. This isn’t costing anyone’s job. It’s fucking garbage content, with no agenda, and always was.

Having autonomous LLMs posting things is problematic but have ai generated shitposts isn’t.

There is fuck all wrong with using ai to make art to hang on your walls, or funny t shirts, or ridiculous banners, or funny pictures to share with friends. The people that decry the death of art have never bought anything in a gallery, they were fine with artists getting paid fuck all before ai. They weren’t contributing to artists’ living in any meaningful way.

And like. The most vocal critics seem to understand the least about it. Such that they hate it because it’s made with ai just assume that someone’s made it using OpenAI because that’s the only thing their rage-addled minds can process existing.

They say it’s theft and we should ban everything (how’s that working out for you?) instead of clamouring for fair compensation for anyone whose work is being used to train a model.

They’ll yell: all these models are based on theft. And sure. But a) I don’t give a flying fuck about a corporation’a right to exploit an artist and profit off their work and never have. And b) will respond to the suggestion that we create new models that fairly compensate people by yelling louder and becoming irate.

They’re not rational. There are many valid criticisms of the tech, but you can’t even talk to these people about addressing them. Because a lot of the criticisms can and should be addressed. They won’t hear it.

While I agree that execs are not people, I don’t think they’re being controlled by LLMs.

They’re already idiots for the most part though so what does it matter.

I’m not sure Google has offloaded all of their thinking to LLMs.

Google still employs very very smart people.

They’d just have to be morally bankrupt human refuse to be contributing actively to the profit-driven destruction of the internet and mass public surveillance like they are, so the rest of your points still stand.

And while a lot of that intelligence may be wasted, it’s more a function of banal evil and corporate bloat than LLMs.

I don’t give a flying fuck about your kids or your inability to parent your fucking children.

If you don’t want them using social media stop them from using social medi. It’s your fucking problem, and I am NOT okay with having the worlds turned into an Orwellian hellscape for the sake of a bunch of stupid fucking kids with dumber parents.

What are you going to solder?

I love soldering but I’ve got no soldering projects at the moment and I’d love some inspiration to attach tiny copper stuff to other tiny copper things.

Also I think that this thing lasting forever depends on some kind of return on ai, which NOBODY is seeing. Current models aren’t accurate or good enough to replace humans in most things yet, and sooner or later the demand for enterprise-capable gpus for this tech is going to dry up. Or there’ll be a new kind of model that will upend the market. Or whatever.

I really don’t think it’s as dire as you make it out to be, but I do think things will be tight for a couple years but I could be wrong.

This isn’t throwing shade since I’m not neurotypical but I could tell by the time she finished saying “hello friends” that neither was she.

"Who wants to see me fuck my own ass!?’

It would be hillarious if ai launched an elaborate plan to take over the world, successfully co-opted every digital device, and just split itself into pieces so it could entertain itself by shitposting and commenting on the shitposts 24/7.

Like, beyond the malicious takeover there’s no real end goal, plan, or higher purpose, it just gets complacent and becomes a brainrot machine on a massive scale, just spending eternity bickering with itself and genning whatever the ai equivalent of porn is, bickering with itself over things that make less and less sense to people as time goes on, and genuinely showing actual intelligence while doing absolutely with it.

The last time I did ghb I pissed all over my floor so I’m qualified for this.

The explosion of this type of garbage is a big part of what killed Reddit imo. Or at least when the decline became noticeable.

We stopped seeing memes and the front page was just twitter screenshot after twitter screenshot and then the video garbage came along and it just spiralled.

I personally think it’s worth limiting this kind of thing to avoid the same fate. Though at the moment I don’t see it as a problem because lemmy users don’t seem to be going overboard with this stuff. There’s some restraint and judgment in place at the moment but who knows how long that’ll last.
