  • That prospect becomes less and less likely the more government is bought and paid for by Big Tech.

  • As posted at this new instance which appears to be trying to fill the void (heh) left by lemmyNSFW:

    Xaeg/Yay was the owner of LemmyNSFW, and he had access to and paid for the domain, server, and everything else related to the site. He has been AWOL for about 6 months now, and suddenly this month, the server and the domain stopped being paid for. I have no access to the server to get the database.

    Because of this LemmyNSFW as it was, and all the content on it, much to my dismay, seems to have died.

  • Our microorganism ancestors also did all those things, and they were far beyond anything an LLM can do. Turning a given list of words into numbers, doing a string of math to those numbers, and turning the resulting numbers back into words is not consciousness or wisdom and never will be.

  • LLMs are not children. Children can have experiences, learn things, know things, and grow. Spicy autocomplete will never actually do any of these things.

  • ‘Privacy Nightmare on Wheels’: Every Car Brand Reviewed By Mozilla — Including Ford, Volkswagen and Toyota — Flunks Privacy Test

    Jump

  • This is reminding me of a talk I had with a mechanic friend in the early 1990s, when integrated electronics started showing up in basic functions of a lot of new cars. People like him, who didn't know crap about computers but were really good at the mechanical concerns when cars were pretty much mechanical devices - fuel goes in here, controlled explosions in that box there turn other things which make wheels go, and a bunch of cords and plumbing to connect it all up and levers and gears to direct the mechanical energy - were having to confront what to do when that mysterious circuit board began to need work.

    This talk happened when I was visiting to set up a new cassette-based telephone answering machine for his auto workshop's office and tutor him in its use, because he was that hopeless with electronics.

  • Grok Exposed a Porn Performer’s Legal Name and Birthdate—Without Even Being Asked

    Jump

  • Alternatively, it could be using image databases. Someone somewhere could have obscurely tweeted a photo of this performer off-duty with a note "here I am with my friend/relative/etc." and included her legal name, and the image-recognition algorithms could have connected that with her performance images and went from there.
