And she’s only getting half of the controls with no coordination between the two. She doesn’t know how strong of a stream you’re giving her and you can’t adjust it based on where she plans to point your dick.

I’ve noticed that it sometimes smells like epoxy glue. I wonder if we’re thinking of the same scent.

Quickly filtering out a subset of them to prioritize so that we get the most value possible out of the time that humans spend on it.

LLMs cannot:

• Tell fact from fiction
• Accurately recall data from its training set
• Count

LLMs can

• Translate
• Get the general vibe of a text (sentiment analysis)
• Generate plausible text

Semantics aside, they’re very different skills that require different setups to accomplish. Just because counting is an easier task than analysing text for humans, doesn’t mean it’s the same it’s the same for a LLM. You can’t use that as evidence for its inability to do the “harder” tasks.

Sounds to me like a 50% improvement over zero human eyes.

It certainly would be. Thankfully, there’s many more than zero human eyes involved in this.

Considering that it’s a language task, LLMs exist, and the cost, it’s a reasonable assumption. It’d be pretty silly to analyse a bag of words when you have tools you can use with minimal work with much better results. Even sillier to spend over $200 for something that can be run on a decade old machine in a few hours.

Exactly

It is wrong because the highlighted portion of the excerpt is supposed to directly answer the question. This one doesn’t.

So the characters are still words, right?

Most likely yes. All characters in Chinese are defined jointly by the way it’s written, the pronunciation, and meaning. You can’t invent new characters like you would a new English word and have something that can be read out loud because there’s no system for deriving pronunciation from the written character itself.

I say most likely because there are still some characters that are phonetic in that their meaning is just the sound, but these don’t cover the whole spectrum of possible sounds in the language as far as I know. They also wouldn’t look as nice in tattoo form since they all use the same radical.

Loot box and that gambling business aside, wouldn’t the FOMO argument also apply to the video game itself? If everyone around you is playing this game, you’ll be pressured into purchasing it yourself as well.

You don’t pay people because it’s the only motivator. You pay people because you need money to survive in this world. If we don’t, then the only people who can afford to spend time making mods are those who are already have their basic needs taken care of through other means.

I would like to see a world where anyone with the passion for modding can make mods.

Count yourself lucky. My front burner has become a secondary backburner and I’ve moved on to using a portable cooktop.

Same. I keep thinking back to my time TAing for an intro programming course and getting students who just add random braces until their code compiles. That’s me right now with Rust pointers.

What kind of help? Do you need friends to play with?

In theory, the value they create is in handling all the home maintenance. Of course, many of them don’t do their jobs in practice.

I mean, this is how businesses work in general. If you don’t buy their products/services, then they wouldn’t be able to continue providing them.

I understand that we’re trying to draw attention to exploitative landlords, but if anyone can afford to keep their property regardless of whether or not you pay rent, it’s the exploitative ones.

since they are by definition far beyond our technology

How so? Aliens aren’t going to suddenly come into existence and have super-human technology in that same instant.

Before I started adblocking, I’d get “relevant” ads in that I can understand how someone of my age/gender might like it, but they’re never things I’d purchase myself. I just want a mostly empty home with as little visual stimulation as possible, and buying more stuff doesn’t help with that.

So yeah, I’m definitely saying “ads don’t work for me”, but it’s probably only because these companies refuse to make ads targeted to people like me.

there are traits exhibited by conscious entities which we don’t observe in those which lack consciousness.

Implying we have a way of determining whether an entity is conscious or not. That’s the entire point of contention here.

As well as anyone using public wifi
