They are called "religion", "propaganda", "fairy tales", etc.. and they are always used to control people. The only thing that is different now is that we can automatize it. The ones that were not impressed before will continue to be not impressed.

But with about 85% of the human race being religious, there is a rich target field for manipulation. Incidentally, this corresponds nicely with about 15% of the human race being able to fact-check.

The person you answered to clearly things the LLM constructed something and had agency and insight, when in reality it just found everything in its training data and just did a bit of aggregation via correlation (not implication, LLMs cannot do implications) and then presented what it found in a seemingly polished fashion.

If you have no clue how an LLM works and are not very smart (i.e. Dunning-Kruger left-side), you can come to this invalid conclusion.

Excuse me? Are you seriously claiming an LLM is not a statistical engine? If so, you need to have your head examined, because that is the literal, mathematical truth.

Hahaha, no. It is just "clear" to you, because you have no clue how research, or risk management or securing software works.

I, on the other hand, am quite capable of identifying critical parts of a performance landscape and then look into those as a priority.

Or in other words, insightless comment is without insight...

Hell yes! It is the American Way!

Actually, he is relevant in this case.

Indeed. Small? WTF? Cannot have that! We need to take IMMEDIATE steps to make our Ozone-hole the largest and most magnificent!

No argument about that. Applies not only to governments, but to anybody that want power in order to control people (that is why most, but not all people go into politics). Hence religion, cults, company structures, even some people in groups of social media have this. It boils down to dominance in some form and it not a positive personality trait.

Deflation and slowing of economy wouldn't be allowed though, Fed would pump money. Your inner Jew needs to be channeled into bargain hunting and saving with investment to have peace.

Yes, very much so. Sometimes it is hard, but the better the rapport you build with the students, the better it works. Talking to them in breaks helps. Showing the occasional weakness helps. If some student know something relevant better than you, let them talk for a few minutes. Of course, some students want the degree, but not do the work (which is really stupid, but it happens) and that is why I have stopped teaching mandatory subjects. If you do not really want to be in my lecture, I do not want you to be there either.

In this case a false denial would put them in violation of two FTC consent decrees, and would almost certainly leak (Google employees are not known for keeping their mouths shut), so it would be a particularly stupid thing to do.

What kind of a nonsense posting is that? Stop projecting and read what I actually wrote.

those asian and european lines through wilderness don't prove a thing about trying to get into a dense extended metropolitan area that covers more than one state, with already occupied rail lines that are core to the U.S. economy carrying 40% of the ton-weight for long distance.

So, have to build over highways, or do other elevated, wickedly expensive. Down into the water table around Great Lakes is a bad idea.

Yes that is my point, there are occupied rail corridors that will not shut down and move aside into a pocket dimension. Not a matter of "hard" or "closed minded" , economic and engineering reality are the questions. An elevated rail could do it, that is wickedly expensive. Whatever place you are talking about has wide open land. I see the problem all right, starry eyed dreamers with romantic notions, comparing their empty asian and european wildernesses with Chicago urban area, lolz!

The "walkable city" does have proselytizers saying those things. Here around Chicago we have such groups and even our current state government is pushing it. So I pointed out a stupid thing that really is advocated is stupid, and you are losing your shit over it. Good work sport, watch that blood pressure.
