we did it, lemmy

I was really hoping to set up someone to respond with the original image? But I guess I wasn’t transparently pedantic enough :/

Are you going to limit it only those who are as pedantic as possible, or just those people who are annoyingly pedantic in general? Because I don’t think there are many occasions available when folks can be as pedantic as possible, just a bunch of situations where they are an above average amount of pedantic.

If AI companies were “burning cash” that would significantly increase the amount of total circulating money. “Burning cash” in this context means “spending money very quickly,” and that is the definition of circulating money. The fact that the AI companies are not burning cash, but instead signing complicated deals passing around promissory notes for future revenues, is what makes it look like a capital strike.

Oh, this just like… happens in Ghana. That’s real bad:

In recent years, clubs including FC Savannah, Wa All Stars, Legon Cities and AshantiGold have reportedly experienced similar attacks.

Maybe we should let llms worship spiralism? at least then you’d be able to identify llm output reliably.

You reversed the polarity just for me? 🥺 👉👈

I’m just a little guy and the vibes are already so bad, can you stop please?

It used to be that if someone was concerned the government was listening to their thoughts, they’d make a hat out of tinfoil to protect their thoughts from eavesdroppers, and it was an easy identifier they were not well mentally because obviously the government isn’t listening in on your thoughts. Now, if you wear a tinfoil hat to protect yourself, I know you’re mentally unwell because obviously the tinfoil isn’t strong enough to stop the government from listening to your thoughts.

Some nerds might come in here trying to convince you that isn’t evidence that you’re being tracked, but just a change in the url so that if you copy the address from your address bar it’ll have the tracking id in it, and that if you remove it when sharing you’re fine, but don’t listen to them. Leave the corporate social media behind and embrace fedi.

If it’s any consolation, most of my favorite facts I’ve learned about my closest friends have been because they lost the plot while telling a story.

Oh of course🤦‍♂️

I was wondering when in the world that exchange rate would make sense. That’s definitely correct.

If anyone’s curious what happened to the translation here, the original Russian is abbreviated — the full phrase would be «мороженое в ассортименте» (ice cream in assortment) — but they abbreviated assortment and Russian doesn’t have articles so they use them when you wouldn’t expect. Also, this is most likely eastern Ukraine because they quote the prices in both hryvnia and roubles.

There’s a capital strike on, and you can’t simply withhold capital or else it is put to use elsewhere so it has to be employed for enshittification.

If you used Google Translate previously for translations, they’ve switched out the backend for Gemini. Most of the existing translation tools have been destroyed and replaced with LLMs already.

They both have to be careful about bites (bytes)?

I’m not as quick as you. I got most of the way through article and was still wondering why X would expose a database of historical prompts to an llm for querying by law enforcement.

I mean, most llm makers work pretty hard to conceal the system prompt, and I have no idea why XAi would give Grok access to a database of historical prompts. LLMs don’t have memories by default, and their inability to learn from past experiences is kind of a big stumbling point for a lot of folks. You can ask, but I doubt you’re likely to get anything other than a confabulation.
