Hands down immich.

Yeah, hey - what degrees do you hold in physics?

Ok, so get a cat to do it.

This isn’t hard to test if someone would fund it.

“Oatmeal prize awards honors blandest wastes of space”

It’s a silly argument.

LLMs are designed to mimic smart humans. Any test devised to find the dividing line will fail because at some point there will be a pretty large group of humans that would fail that test.

Meaning that we need a definition of consciousness that can’t be mimicked by text or voice alone, and isn’t going to exclude people who are just naturally unintelligent.

Case in point, some days of the week, the elected - elected! - head of state of a major county couldn’t pass a Turing test. You expect the people that voted for him to pass that test any day of the week?

The test ought to be using observation of a quantum state. Can a 50 IQ human observe something thet collapses the wave form? Yeah. Don’t take skills to observe. Great, now see if an LLM can do that.

The thing is, they might absolutely see it as reinforcing their ideals. There’s a very real phenomenon where 2 people on opposite ends of the political spectrum see the exact same media, made famous by the Colbert Report.

The problem is, would Claude even do well writing a subtle, satirical story?

What about the Mama Centers?

I just really want to sell novels on Amazon that just hit every MAGA trope. But I don’t know of it’s worth selling books to a group famous for their hostility towards literacy, education, and words meaning things.

Ah, dang. Out at step 1.

For real, how do I get in on some of this slop? I can hold my breath until I get brain damage and make AI slop as good as the next idiot. How do I get paid to do that?

I thought about it for a year or two, expecting to need to buy stuff. I had no idea, until I asked here, that am old laptop is enough. Not than enough to start.

It’s easy, and can be free. And that what I needed to hear before I got started.

Their goal is to get as close as possible to a working proof of concept, and wait for Meta, Google, or Palantir to buy them.

"Will soon… "?

You’re a couple years late to the party, pal.

I love the concept! That’s very cool.

I know some guys that might be into that. Thanks for mentioning it!

Fascinating stuff, and a linear streaming French TV from the 90s would be awesome. For what it’s worth, the only redeeming element of Amazon and other VOD services is that they do often have a ton of “live tv” channels that are just regular ol’ TV, but one show over and over. Music videos or MST3K is my usual go-to.

Yeah, just let them crash the entire economy first so they can pay engineers $7.50 an hour.

That’s cool, and I’m glad you’ve made the TV take a vow of solitude!

I kind of love this.

Y’all, this is a very 2019 version of this.

Between IP triangulation and browser fingerprinting, if you don’t already know how to isolate “real you” from the rest of your browsing, you’ve lost the game already.

Yes, do all these things. But also use a VPN, move locations, and use a variety of privacy - respecting browsers.

It’s a lifestyle, not a job to be done once.
