it could turn on the RGB! though that would imply that the RGB could be turned off in the first place, which is optimistic on my part

it’s really embarrassing when the promptfans come here to brag about how they’re using the technology that’s burning the earth and it’s just basic editor shit they never learned. and then you watch these fuckers “work” and it’s miserably slow cause they’re prompting the piece of shit model in English, waiting for the cloud service to burn enough methane to generate a response, correcting the output and re-prompting, all to do the same task that’s just a fucking key combo.

Same with text formatting, for example. I regularly need to format long strings in specific ways, adding brackets and changing upper/lower capitalization. It does it in a second, and really well.

how in fuck do you work with strings and have this shit not be muscle memory or an editor macro? oh yeah, by giving the fuck up.

me: writing software for a calculator I don’t even own yet so I can maybe hopefully have a pocket version of one of the only good products of the first AI boom

them: Math Yes, it is fairly good at math. You can’t trust it,

I will not go into ethics.

then stop wasting our fucking time

I didn’t read the rest of your post but it’s vaguely LLM-shaped so off you fuck

you may or may not classify it as ‘Generative AI’ on it’s own.

while the ship has sailed on calling the opencv shit you’re doing AI (thx, grifters of the first AI bubble), which part of object detection and facial recognition is generative?

also you’re right, I was unfair towards cubism_pitta. I wasn’t enough of an asshole.

hey fuckers. next time you get the sudden, overwhelming urge to jack off in public about how much money you’re feeding into the machine that does plagiarism and nothing else, keep it the fuck off my instance.

okwhateverdude

ah yes the only way to make LLMs, a technology built on plagiarism with no known use case, “not silly” is to throw a shitload of money at Apple or framework or whichever vendor decided to sell pickaxes this time for more RAM. yes, very interesting, thank you, fuck off

ah yes the only way to make LLMs, a technology built on plagiarism with no known use case, “useful for any actual ai application” is to throw a shitload of money at nvidia. weird how that works!

oof, I’m sorry you’re caught in the middle of this crap; it’s not a great feeling to be put into this kind of situation.

take this with a grain of salt because I’m exhausted from a hell workweek, but this felt like a thread you could pull on:

I know they have no dedicated resources because they are actively hiring their first staff member for this niche and said so in a recent job advertisement.

if their AI horseshit is doing so well in your niche, why are they hiring for it? that’s fucking weird, right? use your best judgement, but be as aggressive with your questions as feels appropriate.

also, and I hope this isn’t too obvious: you’re in the middle of a vapid power game between two sociopaths who lie for a living (and the pilfered livings of many other people). craft your questions and statements with that in mind — you’re there to sell the idea that the opposing executive has done something foolish, so come up with responses to the potential bullshit these professional bullshitters might fling at you (“the new hire is just to train/support/monitor the AI” “oh, but wasn’t it already a success? that doesn’t sound very efficient, can you go into more detail?”). one of the biggest mistakes I’ve made in similar situations is to stress absolute truth and precision in conversation — and it’s a trap that a lot of tech people fall into, that the executive class tends to use as a mechanism for control. the truth is on our side but these people don’t give a fuck about that, so sell them a story.

it’d be really weird you didn’t do even a tiny amount of reading into the research by DAIR and other organizations studying the interplay between AI and racism before shitting this post out into our thread, but I’ve seen your takes on transphobia and they’re somehow even more inane so please feel free to go fuck yourself

riskable, sibling, please take this as advice:

you should’ve stuck to things you know like the coefficient of friction of PETG, magnetic field interactions, or any other topic where your output isn’t this absolute buffoon shit
