She is probably right, but she also likes to accuse anyone who disagrees with her of being a Putin shill so they should find someone with better credibility.

Why even grow them with arms and legs if they are just going to be batteries? Wouldn’t it be easier to just grow cows instead?

None of these states are experiencing high unemployment.

In this case it’s that the AI was race switching known historical figures. But that does highlight the problem. You can’t just tell the AI that Europeans are white because it’s never actually been true. There were POC all over Europe for basically all of recorded history. There just isn’t a switch to flip here, the AI needs to be able to understand race in context.

I remember when I was a kid and met a guy that didn’t think he was racist because he literally didn’t meet a single non white person until he was an adult. Yet somehow he already had all kinds of opinions about them.

It’s a real challenge. The datasets all have genuine bias built in and identifying and correcting it is incredibly difficult. I mean, there WERE people of color in historic Europe, lots of them. So you can’t correct this by just making them all white because that isn’t necessarily more accurate. But yeah, we know that King George wasn’t black.

For sure. It’s currently possible to push discourse with hundreds of accounts pushing a coordinated narrative but it’s expensive and requires a lot of real people to be effective. With a suitably advanced AI one person could do it at the push of a button.

You CAN prompt an ethnicity in the first place. What this is trying to do is avoid creating a “default” value for things like “woman” because that’s genuinely problematic.

It’s trying to avoid biases that exist within it’s data set.

Hilarious to think that an AI is going to be trained by a bunch of primitive Reddit karma bots.

I mean, all you need to steal a trailer today is a pair of bolt cutters, so it’s not really less secure than that.

Some of those are really good!

They literally cost nothing to produce and the authors get pennies on the dollar, they didn’t have to sell very many copies to make money.

That’s why people need to read a LOT of books. The only thing worse than someone who doesn’t read at all is the person that reads like one book a year and let’s it define their whole personality.

Nice to see short fiction making a bit of a comeback. Shame all this MAGA stuff didn’t bring back the best thing about the 50s: short format and serial fiction periodicals.

He’s just about whittled his support down to the sort of people that cheer on that sort of shit, just like Trump

Once you get to that point News like this actually does help him. The people who care already know and so this just builds up his core supporters.

Cognos Analytics at work and like a lot of folks there’s a cheap IBM server card in my media center supporting an array for network storage.

That’s not counting the dozens of IBM products that are at the various levels of all the networks we travel through online.

Usually in the form of “you know, Nazis were socialists” somehow followed up with “but they had some good ideas.” And “what Holocaust?”

Getting rid of the previous versions just makes it harder for unity to enforce any terms on previously signed agreements.

The office should have ended when Mike left.
