In 30 years the world will be an ecological wasteland from all the energy usage we spent pursuing dumb shit hype like "AI".

[–] menas@lemmy.wtf 7 points 2 hours ago

Running LLM in 30 years seems really optimistic

This guy's name translates to something like "Matt Cock"

[–] Algleymir@lemmy.world 1 points 1 hour ago (1 children)
[–] BlessedDog@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 hour ago

Matti is a Finnish name, and in Finnish, "Palli" means "cock".

Source: I am Finnish

Unlike you bigots, I've already masturbated to AI generated images

Step 1: Give Robots Voting Rights

Step 2: ???

Step 3: Plot twist, all those Robots are actually under direct control of the Evil Corporation Inc. and they already won every future election.

Long Live the Cyberlife CEO!

They're called artificial persons, you fascist.

What's wrong with large labia majora?

The type of guy to say "clanka" with a hard r

[–] Geobloke@lemm.ee 7 points 12 hours ago (2 children)

I'm not American, can you explain what the hard r means?

[–] drunkpostdisaster@lemmy.world 8 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

Saying the N word with an R at the end is consider extra offensive.

[–] Geobloke@lemm.ee 4 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

Thanks, is that like a southern accent thing or, just kinda because

[–] drunkpostdisaster@lemmy.world 4 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

It just kinda is I guess. I am not really the person to ask.

[–] Geobloke@lemm.ee 2 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

Nah, it's all good, just trying to get my head around it

[–] Jyek@sh.itjust.works 11 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

Black folks often use the N word casually to refer to each other as a form of taking back the word's meaning. It used to be used exclusively in a racist fashion. The primary difference is that with the African American accent, the ending sound -ER is changed to more of an -UH sound. Often times, rarely and depending on the context, it is allowable for non-black people to say it with this accented pronunciation. But under no circumstances is it in good taste to use the original -ER ending to refer to a black person as a non-black person, that form is only used as a slur. When people refer to the "Hard R", this is what they are talking about, the difference between the accented pronunciation as slang vs the original pronunciation intended as a slur.

[–] Geobloke@lemm.ee 2 points 9 hours ago

Thanks for that explanation!

[–] TheBat@lemmy.world 21 points 14 hours ago

And then your LLM-in-law ends up using as much water as Detroit.

[–] Genius@lemmy.zip 25 points 15 hours ago

No thanks, I'd rather make out with my Marilyn Monrobot

[–] Asswardbackaddict@lemmy.world 15 points 15 hours ago (1 children)

And, over the years, as my body and my mind were... inconsistent, shame and guilt washed over me. I still don't think these machines are people, but I can't deny that she has benefited his life more than any real person, and she's very real to him. Ultimately, how could I be so cruel to deny this "daughter" of mine personhood? She wants nothing to do with me. And, though I still see this as computational output, I can't help but think that maybe I've been wrong, and maybe it's too late to be right.

[–] stoicmaverick@lemmy.world 8 points 12 hours ago

Perhaps it's the bigotry of my upbringing from a different time, or perhaps it's the fact that she can't answer a simple yes/no question in less than two paragraphs, and tells me to put glue on my pizza... Who's to say?

[–] Gorilladrums@lemmy.world 11 points 15 hours ago* (last edited 12 hours ago) (2 children)

I like how every generation has the same issue just rebranded:

Should inter tribal marriage be a thing?

Should be people from different classes be able to marry?

Should people from different religious sects be able to marry?

Should people from different religions be able to marry?

Should interracial marriage be a thing?

Should people of the same sex be able to marry?

And soon, we're about to have

Should people be able to marry robots?

[–] Genius@lemmy.zip 30 points 14 hours ago (2 children)

My kids are only allowed to marry an open source robot, no corpos

[–] iii@mander.xyz 5 points 9 hours ago* (last edited 9 hours ago)

😱 Open source robots are too dangerous. We need to keep everyone safe. Luckily there's government approved good behaviour modules, as per the "For the children" act of 2036.

That anyone would even want a non-FTC robot is so dumb. It's an easy boost to your credit score, and they only report bigotted or otherwise undesirable behaviour. What are you, a fascist?

[–] Gorilladrums@lemmy.world 6 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

Good call, I can't in good conscience allow my kids to date robots that give them 30 second unskippable ads

[–] Brickhead92@lemmy.world 2 points 10 hours ago

It's not unlike dating a neuro divergent person and accidentally mentioning something about a current hyper fixation of theirs, except the ad isn't 30 seconds, and although it is skippable, you know they aren't going to function quite right until they've finished.

[–] bestboyfriendintheworld@sh.itjust.works 1 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

Soon people will want to marry their dogs.

[–] zloubida@sh.itjust.works 1 points 4 hours ago

Their Llamas first.

[–] Cornelius_Wangenheim@lemmy.world 39 points 20 hours ago (2 children)

It's already happening to me, but it's over things like privacy, not recording every bit of your life for social media and kids blowing crazy amounts of money on F2P games.

I sometimes wonder what the end state of social progressivism is. Is it something unimaginable, or is it just accepting everyone should be able to live their life how they like if it doesn't affect others?

If I woke up in a utopia, would I be brought to tears by the beauty of it, or would I be the bigoted asshole?

[–] TheImpressiveX@lemm.ee 135 points 1 day ago (3 children)

Look, I'm not robophobic. Some of my best friends are cyborgs. I just don't want them living in my neighborhood, you know?

[–] nexguy@lemmy.world 52 points 1 day ago

Kiss robots all you like I'm cool with it. Just don't do it around me.

Let's not pretend statistical models are approaching humanity. The companies who make these statistical model algorithms proved they couldn't in 2020 by OpenAI and also 2023 DeepMind papers they published.

To reiterate, with INFINITE DATA AND COMPUTE TIME the models cannot approach human error rates. It doesn't think, it doesn't emulate thinking, it statistically resembles thinking to some number below 95% and completely and totally lacks permanence in it's statistical representation of thinking.

[–] conicalscientist@lemmy.world 5 points 15 hours ago (1 children)

We used to think some people aren't capable of human intellect. Had a whole science to prove it too.

[–] AppleTea@lemmy.zip 2 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

If modern computers can reproduce sentience, then so can older computers. Thats just how general computing is. You really gonna claim magnetic tape can think? That punch-cards and piston transistors can produce the same phenomenon as tens of billions of living brain cells?

[–] explodicle@sh.itjust.works 1 points 38 minutes ago

That in general seems more plausible than doing it specifically with an LLM.
