And it’s easy to figure out why or at least I believe it is.

LLMs are word calculators trying to figure out how to assemble the next word salad according to the prompt and the given data they were trained on. And that’s the thing. Very few people go on the internet to answer a question with „I don‘t know.“ (Unless you look at Amazon Q&A sections)

My guess is they act all knowingly because of how interactions work on the internet. Plus they can‘t tell fact from fiction to begin with and would just randomly say they don‘t know if you tried to train them on that I guess.

And China a surveillance state. This was a given.

The overlap between climate crisis deniers and preppers is so large it‘s truly baffling. If you ask me most of them are just hobbyists who act a little too seriously about their little passion. It‘s a lot of make believe and very little obtaining practical skills.

Is that the same for all countries though or are you talking about a specific place where that‘s the case? I don‘t know much about the subject but this reads like one of those US specific fun facts that the rest of us can‘t really make use of.

Alright. I think I’ve had enough Lemmy for today. Don‘t wanna get too depressed before lunch.

It still gives me a little confident boost when I think about how liberal friends and family admitted that I was right about him the entire time.

The signs where there but people weren’t looking. Even when you explained it to them. It took at least a dozen of major missteps and blunders by him to finally make most people realize what he really is.

They kept telling themselves (and me) his good deeds will outweigh the bad ones when in reality those where cracks in the facade to show what lies underneath. They couldn‘t see the bright red flags for what they are because they thought it‘s about a balance between good and bad, not character qualities that can only lead down one road.

You’re wrong about one thing: He didn‘t go crazy. He always was.

Perhaps a bit off topic but I miss when Black Mirror had pigs in it and wasn‘t just all about „we are so fucked, like soooo fucked you guys“. In hindsight rest of the series could never really live up to the pilot where politicians got eaten alive by the mob.

They shocked the world with GPT 3 and cling to that initial success ever since with increasing recklessness and declining results. It‘s all glue on pizza from here.

What are you talking about? The USA is quite literally the biggest producer and exporter of agricultural goods in the world and don‘t even get me started on patents and digital services. They are by far the richest country on earth. The only thing China has going for it here is recklessness towards their own people because believe it or not, there are worse places to be than the USA right now. Hard to comprehend, but sadly true.

He didn‘t die. He became more powerful than you could ever imagine.

It‘s about who bleeds out faster and that‘s definitely China. No matter how you put it the USA holds a much stronger hand in this. Tankies can cheer China on all they want but this will hit their economy very hard.

Don‘t get me wrong it‘s a moronic dispute with no winners other than the occasional insider trading in the White House. And some say that‘s the point. However the way China handles this they just might be the biggest losers in the end. In order to save face, China risks losing everything.

Not much of a backstab when you get 90 days to figure out how to deal with tariffs and decide to… not do anything? I hope the free, democratic world comes together while China and the USA have their little stalemate.

A lot of posts here lately are kind of silly ideas that China tries to sell as the next big thing because it‘s cyberpunk. We should be more cautious about these stories.

Jesus F. Christ the BS that gets posted and upvoted in this community is getting more ridiculously Chinese propagandist by the day. Freaking air taxis? Really? Germany has like a dozen of those dumpster fire startups that chew up subsidies like it‘s no tomorrow (because for them there really isn‘t).

It‘s likely BS anyway. Maybe it’s just me but reading about another crazy breakthrough from China every single day during this trade war smells fishy. Because I‘ve seen the exact same propaganda strategy during the pandemic when relations between China and the rest of the world weren‘t exactly the best. A lot of those headlines coming from there are just claims about flashy topics with very little substance or second guessing. And the papers releasing the stories aren‘t exactly the most renowned either.

Doxxing made easy. Oh isn‘t the internet a wonderful place? I mean who needs 4Chan when we have ChatGPT, Facebook and Xitter…

Who still thinks the South Chinese Morning Post is a legit source after what happened to Hong Kong needs a reality check.

You would think that but even here on the Fediverse where many users have an affection for technology and are generally vary of AI, I‘ve seen people gobbling up the Open Source label when the model was open weights at best.

That‘s their default, though. It’s not the first time they‘re acting up as an unreliable business partner. I mean they bought all those rare earth mines across the globe for a reason and it‘s not to just stick it to the USA. They‘re both bullies.

He would certainly take credit for it.
