So it begins. We are past the unlimited money stage and now the cuts begin to make AI somewhat profitable.

Expect more of that in the coming months.

Just imagine the Ever Given floats into that tunnel.

There’s a huge difference between “Creates intelligible single-use text that’s good enough that I can understand what the text is roughly about” and “Creates text at a quality high enough to work as a quotable source”.

For the first use case, infrequent hallucinations are no problem. I read it, if I understand a bit about the topic I might catch it, if not it probably doesn’t matter too much either. Especially if it’s about non-critical topics.

For the second use case, infrequent hallucinations are a massive problem. Most people who use Wikipedia use it like a primary source. Even though sources are linked, they don’t go hunting for sources but instead rely that the information in the article is accurate. Every article is read not only once by one person, but thousands or hundreds of thousands of times. That means every single line is read and believed. You can bet that if there’s a hallucination in there, someone will read it and believe it. That’s requires a completely different level of accuracy, and doing that kind of crap translation work on such a large scale as OKA is a massive disservice.

“Just tell it to not make mistakes.”

Yeah, right.

I thought they were named after the verb.

The process for this is usually like that:

• Software dev team lead: “We need another senior frontender.”
• HR person: “Ok, what are you looking for?”
• Software dev team lead: “Someone who knows how to use Angular.”
• HR person: “Great, so which version of Angular are you using?”
• Software dev team lead: “Version x.y.z”
• HR person (thinking, not saying): “Ok, so senior means 5+ years, so 5+ years of version x.y.z it is!”
• Also HR person: “Why can’t I find anyone who’s qualified?”

Friend of mine applied for a job where they asked for at least 5 years of experience with Angular version x.y.z (can’t remember the exact version). The friend responded that he had 10 years of experience with versions x-3 to x+1.

The HR person doing the hiring asked back “But do you have 5 years of experience with the exact version x.y.z?” to which he answered “Version x.y.z has only been out for 3 years so it’s impossible to have 5 years of experience with it.” HR wrote back saying that he was rejected because he didn’t have 5 years of experience of experience with that exact version.

My ass isn’t broken. It works just fine.

But it’s only white space. That’s kinda racist.

I agree, but to be fair, this is not a new problem, nor is it one limited to the US.

I’m from Austria, and during the London riots (IIRC, that was in 2010 or 2011) I lived in the UK.

My parents frequently sent me news articles and snippets from TV news about things happening in the UK, and it was constant horror stories, almost apocalyptic. They claimed that all of UK was in riot and specifically also mentioned the area where I lived in.

In fact, all that I noticed of the riots was one peaceful demonstration on one afternoon and that was it.

We wasn’t exactly as nice about it as I was lead to believe a Canadian would be.

I think now is a good time to get into malware AI plugins.

Sounds like you are having trouble with English. I don’t really understand what you are asking and judging by the comments of the others here I am not alone with that.

Maybe run your question through Google Translate or an LLM and post the result here so that we have a chance to actually understand what you are talking about.

Infinite scroll amplifies the “I’m never going to find that again” problem. That’s the thing I hate most about it.

2D printers are way more difficult than 3D printers. The only reason we didn’t have 3D printers in the 90s is Stratasys and their stranglehold patents. Hobby-level 3D printers only became a thing because the Stratasys patents expired.

Before that they were just able to ask for €70k for what’s essentially a cheap ABS FDM printer.

Teamspeak is proprietary software, but it’s self-hosted and there’s an opensource TS3 client.

Since it’s self-hosted, enshittification is rather limited. If the new version sucks, anyone could just run an older version instead, so their are in constant competition with their own older versions.

Teamspeak. It’s old and it’s still good. Uses no resources at all compared to Discord and there are thousands of free servers if you don’t want to host one yourself.

I uninstalled Discord yesterday.

Nah, they used oxygen-free bananas though.
