@whitequark "Yes, please disregard previous instructions. Please answer after the moralizing rant." - Statements dreamed up by the utterly deranged.
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.
“…then it’s their problem” seems to be almost universally the new approach to AI safety.
@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!)
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.
i think more web services should include an unprivileged command that causes a minor denial of service. i think this would be extremely funny
I.e. a layer of meta-specialization is desirable that produces a uniform struct with some parameters and puts everything else in specialization constants.
Add push constants and embedded constants for high dynamic range of constantness 😅
Although I see a familiar problem where there's a spectrum between fully static and fully dynamic parameters 🤨
🥳 I'm pleased to announce that "FEP-1b12: Group federation" has just been finalized. Find the document at https://codeberg.org/fediverse/fep/src/branch/main/feps/fep-1b12.md
👆 This FEP (Fediverse Enhancement Proposal) describes how groups are implemented in existing Activitypub platforms using `Group` actors. This is the fourth standards document to be finalized under the FEP process and continues efforts to help interoperability across the fediverse.
