Social expectations, upbringing, interpersonal ties that make social behaviors potentially costly on a personal level to do wrong, all things the same people making the glasses made all of their money degrading?

Ai will fall apart as an industry but it's likely that models on par with e.g. opus 4.8 will be runnable on a home server within the next year and a half and that model hosts will still exist. I figure these tools aren't likely to go away.

More interested in a study on e-readers

I don't think the majority here work for ai companies and I also see a lot of people critical of AI and copyright violations by ai companies. They're also very clearly different things, one is done on a massive scale by a company for profit and another is done by one person to use the work in the way it was intended to be used.

I'm not gonna buy the book as an alternative you know. If I'm pirating a book it's usually because I can't really afford to go buying the books I'm interested in. Sometimes if I love a book I'll get a physical copy so I can finish it in a more comfortable format and so I'll have it for another read. I figure most people who pirate are pretty similar, so I wouldn't expect an outsized effect on book sales. Add to that the fact that books by people who are literally dead still have copyright. That has nothing to do with it being hard to write a book, cause I don't think their fucking estate wrote the book.

Nice bait

Yeah I kinda feel bad for the trees but they probably don't care

I don't generally get why tests are designed to rush a student. Is speed a proxy for understanding?

I dislike that legal arguments often fail to distinguish cases where scale or speed create something transformative in themselves. Yes you could keep a few people out of a small venue, but good luck keeping a list of 1000 people out of a stadium. The tech creates new powers for large entities able to deploy it that aren't countered by any capacities gained by individuals and small groups. The argument should be made on the basis of what this tech enables itself and not by reference to some old tech that had different consequences.

Wait a second you're kind of right. That's why they always want to pretend they "could've done physics"

I don't think any of this gets better by cutting funding.

I mean they at least can afford to eat that way. I figure a solid portion, maybe the majority of the people who work in call centers are doing pretty much the cushiest job available to them.

Yeah skipped mine too. Couldn't see the point and still did a grad party with the family so we could do something together.

God fucking dammit I like cursor

365*4=1420

Distance from Panama to Texas is like 1700 miles.

It's not a large difference, wouldn't need much unnatural transport.

Yall ain't sending your best huh

Yeah we did have it solved for a long time. We had no screwworms at all in the country. That was a great solution that lasted decades. Why would having to do all the work of applying medication, paying for the medication, animals that you catch late dying of infection and paying for those animals, people occasionally getting screwworms, pets dying to screwworms, etc etc etc be better or cheaper?

Also they don't genetically modify flies they still just irradiate the larva.

Yeah I feel like there's less discussion than I expected of how many different things had to be done utterly ass backwards wrong by society for this guy to have his downward spiral in the first place.

God I hope so

The phones

If everyone has 40 hours a week + overtime and you have a coop that pays competitively for 24 hours a week and no overtime you won't get as much market share, can be outcompeted. It has to be done on a large scale, historically as a matter of policy. This was true for tons of different reductions in the workday and other labor rights improvements in the past.

I don't feel scared of or concerned about immigration. That's it. I don't know where that's coming from.

The economy is currently kinda riding on them.

Yeah I noticed it myself, "You asked a simple question. They lobbed a document."

Morale and civic pride? Dog the government is putting untrained morons with guns on the street to harass, beat up, and deport people who look vaguely ethnic. That shit is bad for civic pride, and they use the cameras.

I'd love to see smashing flock cameras so normalized it actually mattered.

I wanna give him a shot at explaining it

I read through your presentation but I still feel pretty confused about what ur startup does. Could you explain it?

The people doing the downvoting are different people from the whiners. I'm one of the whiners.

That's kinda fair, like it's still useful to prepare a list, but it's also like if you didn't go research your information yourself why would I start from a position of charitability when I read it? When I research something with LLMs, I know to double-check everything myself before I use it as a basis for my thought or repeat it to other people. Knowing an article is AI written forces me to doubt every sentence. Or maybe it's worse, I have to assume nobody cared about the sentence. The old format was a guarantee that someone gave enough shits to put the article together. Relevance comes implicitly bundled in each sentence. It's like someone talking to you in public in that there's often a reason to pay attention.

It's not as though that person is going to say something correct, or ethical, but I've had a lifetime of dealing with human kinds of wrongness. When stuff is wrong, I'll know it's wrong because the article is slanted or wrong because the author was lazy etc., which will let me discount it selectively and still get value from it when, e.g., a slanted author contradicts themselves. Reading an LLM article I have no clue whether the person who put it up even read the whole thing, so when I read sentences, I have no guarantee that the sentence communicates something worth paying attention to. I dislike that ambiguity and would prefer to guarantee that the text is slop by asking a bot myself. Then I know its worth upfront. I'd be fine with it if these sites included a direct statement in bold at the top: HEY THIS IS AI SLOP IF YOU DONT WANT THAT LEAVE. Then I know exactly how to parse it.

Lol that's not a neutral statement in any way. Also, the speaker wasn't mobbed on the spot, he got booed.
