Comment Misunderstanding... (Score 1) 67

Why is the compter the problem ? It seem pretty obvious that the issue lies in the curriculum and how the tools are used. Educators figured that just having a computer would promote learning...they were wrong. Now the same educators are convinced that just having books will promote learning...again they are wrong. Modern education has become indoctrination and lacks critical thinking tools because that would enable the students to realize what a shit sandwich they were being fed.

LMAO That is what they tell the ID10T's that can't be trusted with gun, badge or any responsibilty. Almost any reputable force requires a degree and advancement requires a higher degree. I am not saying a degree shows intelligence or more importantly common-sense, but I'd say your "buddies" might be more suited for the Marines.

They act like dynamic pricing is a new thing ? NOT..

It was the standard for almost the entire human history. There were no price tags and you haggled for a discount, so if you sucked you paid more. If the merchant thought you were a rube you paid more...

I sat my daughter down in my lap and explained how as much as I loved her Mommy, different people liked different things. That what her Mother and I had, some people had between Mommy's or Daddy's. It was awkward, uncomfortable and not very effective. Luckily she accepted it and went to talk to Mommy. I was afraid she would ask about trans or alternate pronouns...I don't have a speech for that yet...

Bottom line I can't help you explain the reality of things to your child. You should continue to do as you think is best and Ignore the slashbots...

Comment Re:Intelligence ?!?! (Score 1) 147

so you are stating that the current LLM models are intelligent ?
The dictionary definition does contain a sub-clause dealing specifically with computers :

4. Computers. pertaining to the ability to do data processing locally; smart.

I don't see an LLM/AI meeting the other clauses, pertaining to good judgement, sound thought, or comprehensive understanding. AI used as a tool has some good potential uses but I ISN"T intelligent or in any way reliably self directing.
You need to check your reading comprehension...I never said AI doesn't work...I SAID IT ISN'T INTELLIGENT...
Do you seriously think the "AI" of today is going to replace humanity ?!?! Wake up and try some coffee.

Think of it as a chance to ACTUALLY parent. Explain things to your child that they WILL have to face one day instead of hiding it and pretending it doesn't exist. I suppose voting with you dollars is a decent answer, but allowing what these terrible Corps do to influence and affect your choices is silly. With holding from Evil entity #1 to support Evil entity #2 is hardly a good answer.
