I've seen this with gpt4. If I ask it to proofread text with errors it consistently does a great job, but if I prompt it to proofread a text without errors, it hallucinates them. It's funny to see Microsoft having the same issue.

I feel like this phenomenon should have a catchy name, like: "No one hates Scotsmen more than Scotsmen."

Not piracy, but if you're in the US and get a library card, you can use the Libby app, which has tons of free audiobooks on demand. Definitely worth it, imho. You can download for offline use easily too, which makes it excellent for travel.

Piracy? I've been converting my epubs into html files and then using the edge browser's excellent voice to text to read it out to me, but that's my own special brand of insanity.

I already have an everything app where I can date, do banking, and even use Twitter. It's called Firefox.

As a cis, heteronormative male, I appreciate this community. I'm not trans, but I relate. I have dreams that I'm a woman, I read nothing but girl love manga, every drawing or painting of myself I've done I'm a woman, I'm migrating from windows to Linux, everyone I used to tour with back in the day is trans.

I disagree with this reductionist argument. The article essentially states that because ai generation is the "exploration of latent space," and photography is also fundamentally the "exploration of latent space," that they are equivalent.

It disregards the intention of copywriting. The point isn't to protect the sanctity or spiritual core of art. The purpose is to protect the financial viability of art as a career. It is an acknowledgment that capitalism, if unregulated, would destroy art and make it impossible to pursue.

Ai stands to replace artist in a way which digital and photography never really did. Its not a medium, it is inference. As such, if copywrite was ever good to begin with, it should oppose ai until compromises are made.

While investigating an uncovered node in some aviation datalink software, I discovered a 15 year old comment from 1993 along the lines of, "this function never runs, I'll fix it later." I wish will all my heart I could have heard their voice. Even if just for a moment.

Remember when Trump advocated for Hillary to be put in jail and it triggered a whole investigation into her.

The situation in Ukraine is quite different from WWII bombing raids. Russian attacks are spread out, less targeted, and generally less devistating in secure, Ukrainian held territory. I disagree that Ukrainians should be sheltering at all times, or that if they choose to leave the house they are less deserving of anyone's pity when they are murdered.

You would almost certainly be walking to the corner store, or attending a social event if you lived there.

Yeah, this seems to be using the Xbox play anywhere system. So people who have a PC and an Xbox have thier saves synced. I'm sure it will not work steam.

Interesting! I didn't follow this case, but I do remember Kevin spacey posting a very strange video a ways back in which he acted... Very creepy about the situation.

Anyone following the case have any thoughts?

The best thing about Ben Shapiro is that each day I share on this planet with him is one less day I need to coexist with Ben Shapiro.

Yes, I know that it still exist, and yes, decentralized currency which utilizes distributed, cryptographic validation is not actually a strictly bad idea, but...

Is the speculative investment scam, which crypto substantially represented, finally dead? Can we go back to buying gold bars and Pokemon cards?

I feel like it is, but I'm having a hard time putting my finger on why it lost its sheen. Maybe crypto scammers moved on to selling LLM "prompts?" Maybe the rug just got pulled enough times that everyone lost trust.
