Maybe it’s to keep the existing assets from cratering in value. Storage and RAM prices have gone up in value, if all those assets returned to their sane values then many more loans would be upside down.

I have restricted mode turned on one of my devices because I often use it to watch stuff with my kids:

Huh, this video got flagged as mature content. Unusual move for this channel…

Theory doesn’t work in real life.

Some of what they deleted is just taking out the trash.

If you want to challenge them without getting deleted, ask them why Russia doesn’t conduct themselves more like China when it comes to foreign aggressions.

Lack of evidence is not evidence for your pet theory.

Seems like it’s hard to find the actual repository and they put it behind a trigger warninf: https://github.com/terrafying/ai-torture-chamber

I’m sure the AI told them they were right to push back when they confronted it

Cthulu is an archetype, right? Comes into our world with no regard other than what it can manipulate and drives people insane.

I appreciate the emphasis on conviviality or human centric design. But boy I want to nitpick on the following:

when we collaborate with AI systems, we might be interfacing with the archetypal patterns that have guided human wisdom throughout history. This makes programming with AI a form of accessing collective spiritual wisdom rather than just advanced tooling.

I agree with the first half, that yes, you are engaging with archetypal patterns that is often present in human wisdom but that is where it stops. There is no guarantee the LLM has selected the appropriate pattern for your use case. There is no wisdom from the LLM because there is no conviction from its choices. The LLM, at best, is a superstitious machine that sees that X pattern worked in a situation with similar signifiers. Wisdom is understanding which signifiers are of consequence given your context, which requires being able to ignore/forget irrelevant context - something an LLM is terrible at doing as evident by all the “context engineering” tools that exist. It feels like a chicken and egg problem where in order for the LLM to “get right” what is the appropriate context it must first have the appropriate context.

Yes this impacts everyone and everyone should be concerned. But the solution is in mass politics, not in “electing” another death cult leader. The conservative framework is fundamentally unable to address this issue.

Edit: after watching the video I would say the title reflects her audience.

Heard a rumor that one of his advisor is married to an AI specialist at Google. Like I don’t expect Sanders to know who yud is unless someone on his staff told him it would be a good idea to talk to him.

Who is advising Sanders on AI?

Now what would a group of horny middle schoolers do to a bot like that?

Sure you can make the technology more resilient but if the enforcement is punitive enough then it won’t matter.

I think https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molly_Ringwald but nothing in the bio makes the reference make sense

Americans are famously known for their critical thinking skills. /s

Good point. Now I imagine someone trying to pass the turing test by having their bot pretend to be a sales person.

I guess a certain country is using LLMs to try to engage people 1:1 to change their opinions of said country.

Came across this today: the purpose of a system is what it does. Based on that I would say the purpose of Claude was to make mistakes and get my coworker fired.

Coworker got fired because he used AI to plan for a site installment of our product. The AI made a very nice looking plan but it failed to include enough packing material so nearly half of the units arrived broken. Boss still thinks AI is going to revolutionize work for the better though.
