  • Before we adopted them, our hens belonged to my school’s principal. She would sometimes take home leftovers from the school cafeteria to feed the hens. The cockerel we adopted had a habit of whenever stroganoff was served, he’d run up, pick out all the sausage pieces and line them up on the ground for the hens to eat.

    Papa Stroganoff was a fantastic bird. I miss having hens.


  • Don’t know if I’d call that an intention of the machine but rather the creator. Hate to be that kind of person but it’s similar to the whole thing of “guns don’t kill, people do.”

    LLMs aren’t people. They’re not self-aware and don’t have any inner complexities like say, a dog, or a sheep has. There’s no drive or motivation. It’s just maths.

    If you tie someone to a train track, and a train comes along killing them, it’s not like the train or the track intended to kill the person. That was the intent of you, who “programmed” the scenario.

    Similar to guns, strict control is what will be needed to fix these kinds of things. Megalomaniac billionaires who see people as nothing but numbers running amok with narcissistic manipulator systems isn’t a recipe for anything good.

    The amount of times I’ve been met with “but you’re gay” when I’ve been “wow, she’s gorgeous!” or something similar is astonishing.

    Like I can recognise when someone or something is aesthetically pleasing, but that doesn’t necessarily mean I want to shag it.
