Thanks, I wasn't aware of them, and didn't find an entry on them when looking up on mediabiasfactcheck.com. I wonder if the naming is intentional or just a coincidence around the word "Truth".

Sorry, isn't Pravda a literal Kremlin disinfo op? I'm not sure we should be posting anything about the Ukraine war (or, frankly, anything at all) from a Russian state-owned propaganda outlet...

Fantastic article. I've had similar thoughts when reading articles on that Marist poll in particular, it seemed like a much weaker statement than most of the coverage was implying.

I think the problem with anthropomorphizing LLMs this way is that they don't have intent, so they can't have responsiblity. If this piece of software had been given the tools to actually kill someone, I think we all understand that it wouldn't be appropriate to put the LLM on trial. Instead, we need to be looking at the people who are trying to give more power to these systems and dodge responsibility for their failures. If this LLM had caused someone to be killed, then the person who tied critical systems into a black box piece of software that is poorly understood and not fit for the purpose is the one who should be on trial. That's my problem with anthropomorphizing LLMs, it shifts the blame and responsibility away from the people who are responsible for attempting to use them for their own gain, at the expense of others.

I thought the song was called "Head Like a Hole"?

This is one of those stories that probably isn't actually all that noteworthy - the reporter doesn't have any actual idea how many people are living in the community, but estimates around 40 - but the details are all just waaaaay too good not to run with it. The original article starts out wild and only gets wilder as it goes. There's even a guest appearance from Shen Yun at one point. Just check out the first three paragraphs and you can see exactly why this story got written:

Lol, you can tell which commenters have never moderated anything in this thread, IMO. If it weren't for the high likelihood that these summaries will be wrong an appreciable percentage of the time, this would be a huge help for anyone moderating medium traffic subs. Those types of subs, especially if they have relatively hands-on moderation to keep them from being complete cesspools, often involve seeing a comments or post that is borderline, and feeling like you need to go look through the poster's history to figure out if they're a bot or a troll. Something like this that actually worked, especially if it linked back to a sampling of the posts/comments that it is referencing, would be a big help in that. Also something like this that summarized a user's moderation history would be pretty useful.

I've really enjoyed seeing some of the collabs pop up on Youtube over the last couple of months. I was surprised and really pleased by the Bloodywood collab, and I thought it was really cool that they had Bloodywood opening for them on their US tour. Haven't dived into the album proper, yet, but I'll give it a listen soon.

i can watch out for myself

The evidence of you posting all over another Lemmy instance encouraging people to go kill cops makes me think you didn't learn your fucking lesson.

Sorry if it seems like you're being scolded - that's not my intention. I think it's fine to post something like this, but maybe I'm the future a brief explanation of why you found it worth posting would be helpful to get the discussion started - either in the post body or a comment.

Hi @BevelGear - Could you clarify a bit what kind of discussion you're after by posting this? Also, most folks on Beehaw are probably not lawyers so posting a supreme court ruling without any commentary or clarification probably isn't the most conducive to good discussion.

I can certainly understand wanting to keep your exposure to these topics to a certain time and not be bombarded throughout the day. A lot of us would probably be better off if that was something we could do. That said, I think Gaywallet is right that this will be difficult due to the way that Beehaw is - our communities are a lot broader than ones on, say, reddit or other Lemmy instances for the most part, which means that a "no politics" rule is going to be impractical in a lot of cases.

How do you normally browse Lemmy/Beehaw? If you're accessing via browser it may be more difficult, but if you mostly browse on Mobile using a Lemmy app I know that some of them have keyword filters that you might be able to use to catch some of these types of posts. The School Lunch example would probably be difficult, but the other two you could probably have prevented from showing up in your feed with a filter like that.

When I'm browsing on Android I've been using Voyager which I know has a filter like this under "Filters and Blocks" in the settings menu.
