  • But are they technically thinking

    Jump

  • Current LLMs and their ilk will never become "Skynet". Critics of the tech aren't overlooking this "risk" because the risk doesn't exist.

  • Wannabe President ICE Barbie’s Fake ‘Cabinet’ Meetings Exposed

    Jump

  • Should start playing into it. Nothing would piss her boss off more than people treating someone else as his equal. Would probably fire her after the first news headline.

  • Here's hoping this game gets out the door before he can do too much damage.

  • PM asks Sir Jim Ratcliffe to apologise for saying UK 'colonised by immigrants'

  • Ancient Romans kind of count as immigrants, in certain kind of way.

  • its just spitting out nonsense

    That's exactly it. LLMs and their image counterparts have no innate or burgeoning knowledge as people tend to assume. Their singular, core function is to generate their output from literal random noise, like the static you used to see on TV. So the response to the same question will change because the random noise changed, not because the algorithm learned or reconsidered anything. And if you used the same noise, the answer would be identical. No knowledgeable or self-sufficient AI will ever evolve from that.

  • Dev says "false DMCA" from Microsoft got their sandbox game removed from Steam over apparent Minecraft copyright, all because of a screenshot of birch trees

    Jump

  • Maybe I've just been with the game too long to worry about it. I remember when every texture was atrocious, hah.

  • it's not actually like email

    Jump

  • I wouldn't say "driven" or "polite", but partially true, at least. Also, wasn't the fediverse always supposed to be a conglomerated mess? That's one of it's defining features.

  • Briton shot by father in Texas after row about Trump was unlawfully killed, coroner rules

    Jump

  • I've seen this a few times recently, and am wondering what authority do US coroners have to decide that a death was "unlawful"? Isn't their job just determining cause of death, not handing out a verdict?

  • Why?

  • Best valentines plan

  • I'm 90% sure it's generated, but it's a cute idea.

  • Microsoft, evidently related to Minecraft

    Bruh, they've owned it for like a decade at this point. Even if someone was wholly unaware of Minecraft, it would be one of the first things to come up on a cursory search of the game.

  • Artsy darling Remedy Entertainment has a new CEO - a former EA exec and sports betting platform president - who is there to "accelerate growth"

    Jump

  • Fucking dammit. One of the few big-ish studios out there worth following.

  • Discord Users Threaten Exodus Over Age Verification Face Scan Controversy

    Jump

  • Same tactic used by scammers sending "bad" messages - it's at least partially in purpose to single out the good marks.

  • Discord to Require ID or Face Scan Next Month for Full Access

    Jump

  • Didn't they just get busted for leaking their verification data that they totally weren't keeping?

  • Someone ripped the 5th month out of my calendar....

  • And yet time March-es on.

    Legal action over 'unfair' Steam game store prices given go ahead

    Jump

  • Itch is exclusively indie devs, afaik, but since Steam started their Greenlight initiative, the number of games released per year has rocketed up. 2012, the year Greenlight started, only 441 games were released on steam. Two years later in 2014, almost 1500 games were released. 2017 released 5600. 2021 released 10,200. And last year had over 21k. How much of that do we think is really DRM'd, AAA published software?
