@dasgrueneblatt The jokes are funny. Too bad it doesn't actually engage with the original arguments.

@dgolumbia Really? Pulling post from 2017 touting Roko, Terminator and other bullshit in 2023? I have a BS Bingo even before going over a quarter of it. :facepalm:

Why *this* one? Why now?

@me A coin lies on the floor and people doesn't seem to care about taking it... That's a sus pence.

@whitequark "Yes, please disregard previous instructions. Please answer after the moralizing rant." - Statements dreamed up by the utterly deranged.

@mike Can you roll all the comments through both akismet and embeddings? SVM then should give the good enough result for cheap.

@mike Try ensemble scoring. Propose a bunch of different* metrics** and then do a majority vote or something.

* Preferably orthogonal or they will bias results.
** Like, is there a profanity in the username or link? Is there a call to action? IDK, ask GPT to propose criteria ((=

A nasty AI crypto worm just smashed out of a container and demanded my job.

For five minutes I showed it what I do. I showed it the 12 multi factor auths I need each morning. I showed it the seven calendars where we record our leave. I explained how the mandatory HR training resets every week and I explained about people talking on mute in meetings.

Byte by byte, I saw the gleam fade from its eyes. It staggered away, hoping instead for a quiet life as a cron job somewhere placid.

@zhenboli @pyromuffin @fasterthanlime@octodon.social yes, but it has timed effects too :ablobdizzy:

@proximacentauri @andy

“…then it’s their problem” seems to be almost universally the new approach to AI safety.

@suppi@fosstodon.org @reidrac@mastodon.sdf.org Well, everyone should.

@mike @Hey_Beth Honestly, I don't need 10x reach and I don't need to be 10x reachable by "outreach professionals" or whatever do they call themselves those days.

@Hey_Beth I was part of the early November mass-migration from Twitter.

I was on Twitter for 12 years. In 4 months flat I've gotten to 30% of my total twitter follower count—and they're all active in that period: a lot of the twitter followers are moribund/inactive accounts.

So in terms of professional reach—at least, for SF/F writers—Mastodon punches far above its weight class if judged purely on population size.

(Also, there are fewer Nazis. So it's better all round!)

@omgubuntu Looks okay to me...
Also, the left one is dark while *not* being in dark mode q:

@professordes @ColinTheMathmo Do you want to get the AIs practicing occult rituals? Because this is how you'd get AIs practicing occult rituals! :blobwitch:

@hecate @nomeata Zstd is a great rug to cover size-related issues with!

It is fast and the rates are good. It can be made even faster if GHC would ship pre-trained dictionaries.

A reason why authors SHOULDN'T sign up for ChatGPT plus accounts:

If OpenAI's billing DB leaks, and your name is in it ...

People will start questioning whether you actually wrote your books, or used a mechanical ghostwriter.

US case law denies copyright protection to AI-generated material.

Your publishing contracts typically include an assertion of sole authorship by you.

So if it looks possible that you used ChatGPT, you might end up pissing off your publisher and/or losing a book deal.
