Same shit, different name. A piece of code that modifies the default behavior.

Broadcast tv is still free however I rarely tune in except for a few things. Like for example Scrubs was on last night.

I'm not paying Bezos for what used to be free.

Let's hope that few of them interact with their vehicle like its a person. Because if you're having a two-way conversation where your motorcycle tells you how smart and clever you are, that's almost certainly a mental illness.

The interface of chatbot LLMs is ultimately what differentiate it from calling your nation, battleship, rifle, car, etc. a "she". And we should tread very carefully in assigning human qualities to a machine that was trained to imitate and manipulate human beings.

And like I recommend time and time again. We have to regulate these chatbot LLMs because of the social costs to the psychological manipulation that is inherent to their very design.

And here I thought geeks and hackers prioritized freedom and technical superiority over popularity. I'm fortunate you are here to correct my faulty assumption.

Simple, we should make it illegal to represent an AI with a gender and pronouns. How illegal? Fines, injunctions, etc. Make it expensive to be wrong.

Why? Because it's a goddamn machine and a whole lot of problems go away if we stop anthropomorphize it.

That's not what "directly involved" means. Its tourism as best, and at worst: just Seinfeld being a shill.

Yes, that's generally how it works. Although my family mainly gets called communist and anti-Semitic these days.

Most comics play both sides. In a semi-public social setting, they'll participate with a "yes, and" when it's racist, anti-woke, etc. And claim it is comedy. When you make light of the ridiculous positions that Bill Maher or Jerry Seinfeld have to their face, it's suddenly censorship or "evil" (Seinfeld's words LOL).
If you want an example of a comedian that is both funny and a decent person, check out Stavros Halkias. He might seem "woke" because he's not willing to play to decades old stereotypes for cheap laughs. But it turns out you can rip on people and poke fun and be "edgy" without using the nearest trans person as your punching bag.

tl;dr - old, washed up comedians aren't worth anyone's time.

We've dealt with machine proofs before, that's been a thing in the field of mathematics for decades. And the proof's value hinges on if it contributes to the advancement of human knowledge. If humans eventually understand the proof, great. If we have yet another proof that a human can't peel back to find broader principles, then the contribution is of minuscule value.

If someone were to say that 1% of the techniques were novel, I would be surprised that it is so high. So yes, "mostly" is the correct qualifier here.

Wars are too profitable to end without immediately starting another. Oil nations and Islamists are a never ending wellspring of fear to feed to the masses.

I get it, kids aren't as cool as we were. Robolox is definitely no Alice Cooper.

Sure thing, honky.

More like society changes. At one time people sat and laughed at minstrel shows https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...

Who has masked secret police snatching people into unmarked vehicles? Also take 15 minutes and read this. https://archive.org/details/Ar...

My Ninja coffee maker has a clock, nice little blue-green one. I set it maybe once and it is easy to do. But now I just let it show some completely wrong time because I don't need to time when my coffee will brew and I won't bother checking it for the time when I have like 20 other ways to find out
