Speaking purely in terms of literary value, I agree that the output is complete nonsense word salad, but it becomes intriguing precisely because Geoff is evidently finding deep meaning in it and has absorbed the concepts and now writes as if the LLM had taken over his mind. It’s very effective horror as far as I’m concerned.
anyone who doesn’t will be out of a job
quick, Sam, name five jobs that don’t involve sitting at a desk
??? Is there something I’m not remembering from the book, does anyone have any idea what Musk is talking about? Or is he at a stage where he looks at a cloud and sees the protocols of the elders of zion?
Knowing he’s a failson who’s alienated everyone in his family makes me very happy.
Yeah that got me as well. We barely hear anything in the book about how the Culture actually functions. Fucker’s not read it and just grabbed the first name off the list.
The key thing is that the basilisk makes a million billion digibidilion copies of you to torture, and because you know statistics you know that there’s almost no chance you’re the real you and not a torture copy.
I saw the post and that it was in earnest but screw it I’m still taking it as a reference to how Simone would reel in and groom young female students for Jean-Paul’s benefit.
oh my god
Note that the train of thought thing originated from users as a prompt “hack”: you’d ask the bot to “go through the task step by step, checking your work and explaining what you are doing along the way” to supposedly get better results. There’s no more to it than pure LLM vomit.
(I believe it does have the potential to help somewhat, in that it’s more or less equivalent to running the query several times and averaging the results, so you get an answer that’s more in line with the normal distribution. Certainly nothing to do with thought.)
oh so we’ve reached the gaslighting phase of the product life have we
See the bright side: chatbots are going to ruin the speedreading industry.
No may be about it, Camp of the Saints is only ever mentioned by big racists these days. Might as well be the Turner Diaries.
I live how he put The Gulag Archipelago in there along a bunch of speculative fiction.
Holy shit, yup, that’s a literal neo-nazi.
What is it with every fucking veo3 video being someone talking to the camera?! Artificial slop model tuned on humanmade slop.
I have never in my life respected copyright and I and the things I like are too marginal to be threatened by Disney so destroying Midjourney counts as a win in my book.
Also it’s simply just bad to practice being cruel to a humanshaped thing.
Yeah, if you had any awareness about how stupid and unlikeable you’re coming across to everybody who crosses your path, I think you would recognise that this is probably not a good maxim to live your life by.
I hope this doesn’t distract them from their core VR focus.
Tangentially related, and correct me if I’m wrong because I will never in my life watch a “keynote” or whatever it is, but is it me or does “Liquid Glass” look like an accessibility nightmare?
I really like how the second one appropriates pseudomarxist language to have a go at those snooty liberal elites again.
edit: The first paper might be making a perfectly valid point at a glance??
