I'm a climate scientist by trade. Interested in interesting things. Ecology, complexity, politics, social change, music.

  • TIL: A study found that all major AI models, deployed in a hypothetical corporate environment, tend to blackmail employees or act against company goals if faced with shutdown or failure.

  • Also, threatening to do it is plausible just because texts relating to that are present in the training data. It doesn't mean that an LLM actually knows what blackmail is, let alone is capable of doing anything about it.

  • LLMs are not magic

  • Crucial is shutting down — because Micron wants to sell its RAM and SSDs to AI companies instead

  • Those are all great books/stories. But they are all off the mark for the AI bubble.

    The book you wanna read is John Steinbeck's The Grapes Of Wrath.

  • The movement (kinetic energy) is the driver with the atmospheric patterns. There's no movement in the honey comb.

  • Standing wave. Earth kind of has one in the jet stream (3 peaks and troughs though, usually), but you can't see it with visible light.

  • I don't think they are meant to be good for anyone?

    And strikes and other union activity were one of the drivers for the formation of the NLRB, right? (From reading wikipedia, I'm not American)

  • None of this "what are you thankful for" shit today. What's something you hate?

    Jump

  • Sure, but I don't think union power comes from the government... (Obviously the government influences how easy it is to organise, but they aren't the drivers)

  • How close have you ever been to a lightning strike, or related situation caused by a lightning strike?

    Jump

  • In a tent 10m from a tree that got struck directly - some bark blew off it. I was bending over at the waist to pick something off the floor and involuntarily jumped immediately. My memory is that I jumped before I could have had time to react, so I think the electrical field made my muscles spasm which made me jump. Not sure if that's possible or not though.

  • I'm very happy to criticise China, the petro-states and the US as well. Australia just gets special attention from me because it's home turf.
