That teacher would be put in prison today and rightfully so, as that is straight up child abuse.

But what is actually wrong with what they are doing? It's silly. Kids are silly. Kids have been doing silly things like this since the beginning of time. It's a fad. It will go away. Unless it is repeatedly *disruptive*, it's not something that should be *punished*.

Or if they actually moved those goalposts. Those things are heavy.

My wife looked into this, and said it came from a basketball announcer saying something like "He's only 6-2, but he plays like he is 6-7", and *then* it took off. Not sure if the Skrilla line actually was lifting from *that* or if that was the original.

But yes, it's a thing. My kid will go, "Six Seven... Eleven" because it rhymes and is stupid and just this morning a bunch of kids at his elementary school were rhyming it a lot. Yes it is dumb. Yes it will go away in a month.

If you are not understanding how people in multiple fields are using LLMs, you have no business posting on a tech board. Christ.

At least with normal coding exploits, you can track down what went wrong. But there won't be an easy way to do this with enterprise-level usages of LLMs when they start spouting gibberish that results in financial losses or losses of life.

And Qualcomm, headquartered here, is another reason why California rocks. Have your AI, SF. We have the chips that run phones and lots of PCs.

It's good to know that "Conservative" now means spreading false COVID-19 claims, as well as election lies. I mean, they literally said that.
It used to stand for fiscal responsibility. Conservatism now means openly embracing lies about a whole host of things.
It's fucking pathetic.

"Nearly half of senior managers would accept pay cuts to work remotely, a BambooHR survey of 1,500 salaried employees found."

And how many of that 50% would support the same for their own workers? Certainly not 100%, and most likely a whole lot less. As though the convenience of doing laundry, making a quick run to the bank or grocery store and picking up kids is something that only they should have. Remote for me nut not for thee.

Yes, you can get a good job without a college degree.
But if you are competing against someone *with* a college degree for that same job, that person will have an advantage in the selection process. You need to have something on your resume that outweighs that degree that other person (and potentially many other people) have.
Yes, college is too expensive. Yes, college is full of bloated administrative costs.
That changes nothing about the value of the education.

I don't kbnow wnayone who has sucessfuly started a banana stand.

That said, any degree is better than no degree, all other things being equal, when someone is hiring. It shows you can complete tasks, can show dedication, and ostensibly are able to use critical thinking skills.

And what hasn't changed is that people with college degrees have a higher top-level of lifetime earnings than people without a degree. AI is changing everything ofd course, but we are still in the early stages of that.

Oh for fuck's sake, found the snowflake MAGAtard.
"Go woke, go broke!" Like when Barbie, which clearly demonized the male patriarchy (which is actually a thing) made $1.5B worldwide? That kind of broke?

Movies and shows do *worse* when they are less diverse.

Netflix's woes have nothing to do with diversity, racial, gender or otherwise. Their shows are often not engaging, scattered, and just don't have the same kick that theater releases do, which is the whole point.

Horseshit. Artists, authors and musicians have lost cases over and over again on this.

My best friend from high school is a guy named Morgan Freeman, and he is as white as an albino.

No, *your* argument is garbage, just like this lawsuit. The law makes no distinction between how an artist and an LLM is trained, because it is irrelevant. Courts have repeatedly ruled that this is irrelevant; what matters is what is produced and whether or not its fair use.

Did you know that I did not buy a single copy of a superman reference to train myself to be able to draw superman? Did you know that there's no law that says that somewhere in the past I had to have purchased *some* superman image to be able to train myself to draw it, and in fact I can look at an image of superman anywhere, and draw a copy of it and not break the law by doing so. Hell, I can even trace it. I can even...*copy* it on a copy machine! None of those things are illegal in and of themselves... what I can't do is sell it, pass it off as my own, or distribute it, among many other things. That's not fair use.

Likewise courts have repeatedly found that "ingesting" content to train LLMs is not in and of itself illegal. But if a user produces something and tries to pass off a copyright image as their own, then that *user* could be held liable.

Good luck with that.
