Deleting a comment doesn't delete it from reddit's backend, only from public view, so reddit still retains and can track and sell your data. Making multiple accounts (assuming one also takes other steps like using a VPN…
Downvotes are cancerous, imo. It encourages petty fighting (great for "engagement" metrics) and discourages good faith contributors. Even upvotes can be an issue. Oh, you wrote your comment the day after the post went…
Yeah. LLMs are great at convincing people they could be amazing, that they're so close to being amazing, if only they just figure out how to bridge that last gap... But that last gap is fundamentally unbridgeable…
Tell that to Kane Parsons (The Backrooms). Or anyone who owns a smartphone. I'd rather watch a million youtube skits where all the actors are played by one person in different wigs than any attempt at passing off AI…
A photograph is distinct from a painting. The camera does things a paintbrush cannot, even if given infinite time. (And vice versa, a camera cannot make a painting.) What can generative AI do that can't be done, and…
Spellcheck and autocorrect got considerably worse when people starting replacing its perfectly good backend with LLMs.
Sure. But the political party in question has an explicit goal of rounding up and "deporting" all immigrants and all the children of immigrants (including those who grew up in Sweden and are citizens). Besides being…
I was unaware that technological progress stopped for everything but LLMs. All other types of technology have achieved their final forms. Wow. Seriously though, every AI story feels the same lately. There's: 1. company…
That's exactly the problem though; humans will anthropomorphize everything from a roomba to a rock as it is. We're weak to this. We evolved in environments where looking for and recognizing real animals and humans was…
I believe they are just saying that fandom.com sucked and made the internet worse even from the start, not necessarily that Jimmy Wales is corrupt. Wikipedia actually does appear to have separate pages for every Lord of…
Why does it feel like everyone has just ignored/memory-holed this? https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2026/02/wikipedia-bans-a... That whole debacle is even specifically relevant to this thread because the operator of…
Whether or not it should be so, individual pirates are routinely taken to court, jailed, given insanely harsh punishments in an attempt to make them an example/deterrent, etc. "Should piracy be illegal?" is a different…
This is not one of those times.
LLMs do not produce repeatable results, by their nature. Two people can give the exact same prompt to the exact same LLM and get different results. It's not a straightforward 1 + 1 always equals 2 process. This is like…
The page you linked to doesn't say that anywhere.
Oh no, some people are terrible at cooking. Better ban cooking without a license. Giving your neighbor a home baked pie is now a crime unless you're a licensed pastry chef.
You can't be serious.
I wish the AI bros would take a fucking philosophy class. Jesus.
How to spot a Dunning-Kruger-afflicted idiot: they find or invent a simplistic measure of "intelligence". And then they put themself at or near the top of their imaginary tier system. Also might refer to "IQ" as a thing…
I mean, he's not getting a royal allowance, even though his father does. It sounds like they already have peaceful transition away from monarchy worked out, in which case, threatening or committing violence is senseless…
He gets inheritance rights, so he'll inherit money from the royal estate (built up through his ancestors' royal allowances, or through any other means the throne has used to accumulate wealth), even though he doesn't…
Is it not happening on Chrome even when you don't have the browser itself logged into a Google account?
That makes it worse, not better.
They literally didn't deny that. They made a separate point you appear not to have actually read. Regardless, I don't want baked-in Firefox adblocking in part because I don't trust Mozilla with that task either. They'd…
