All that needed to be conveyed was that there are humans who cannot create new memories. That is enough to pose the philosophical question about these models having intelligence. Anything more is just adding an anecdote that isn't necessary.

I'm really happy they added the extra information about this specific case, as I did not previously knew it existed and it is a fascinating read

Why would adding more information and context be unnecessary? And why is that bad?

That reminds me of a vending machine ran into as a little kid. It was in a private place and it had an out of order sign posted. Being hungry and young, I plugged it back in so I could take my chances. Every time I put in a quarter, three or four would fall into the coin return. When it was time to leave, all of the pockets on my cargo shorts were bulging so much that I had to hold my shorts up.


Then there's the next level of content creators that only post videos about the original content creators who are behaving badly. They will report on their behavior and any repercussions. Some do it like they are reporting the news. It stokes the fire when these people should be ignored.


My story is even simpler. I have a friend who wanted to upgrade to Windows 11 because 10 is losing support. I wrote the Windows 11 installer to my flash drive using Rufus. It worked perfectly. I'm not expecting a man who has no interest in learning Linux to change.


I 100% agree. My parents were both disabled. A malpractice lawsuit left us with a little windfall. My parents saw where the future was going and bought me my first computer. Being poor made it so I had a lot of free time as a little kid, so I learned that machine inside and out. I made my own games. I troubleshooted any hardware problem, learning as I went. After getting the internet, things took off from there.


If I find myself writing code in a way that has me saying to myself "there has to be a better way," there usually is. That's when I could present AI with that little bit of what I want to write. What I've found to be important is to describe what I want in natural language. That's when AI might introduce me to a better way of doing things. At that point, I stop and learn all that I can about what the AI showed me. I look it up in books and trusted online tutorials to make sure it is the proper way to do it.


He has said that wind turbines cause cancer. He also said they make noise that bothers people and drives whales insane. He has also said that they kill birds, as if their spinning draws birds into the blades. But most of all, he thinks they're ugly.


There's actually some truth to the bird thing. Some of the first wind turbines in the 1980s had very short blades, 5-10 feet, and would spin at ~50rpm, sort of like a spinning baseball bat, ready to strike birds out of the air. Combined with not being very high off the ground, maybe 40 feet, birds would take off from the ground directly into the very fast spinning blades. Modern wind turbines neither look nor act like these early turbines, but that's where the data comes from. They only just retired those fast spinning, low to the ground turbines in like ~2017. Something like 80-95% of all bird strikes came from ~35 essentially prototype wind turbines, and virtually none come from modern, huge slow spinning turbines.


I would use "saccharine" or "Pollyanna" based on some of the responses I get.

Early on, ChatGPT could be tricked into being sarcastic and using many swear words. I rewrote the prompt and dialed it back a bit. It made ChatGPT have a sense of humor. It was refreshing when it stopped acting like it was reading a script like a low level technician at Comcast.


Yeah, it's two dimensional. One axis goes from good to evil. The other axis, chaotic to lawful.


There's a secret third dimension you can ascend to through a hole in the neutral middle where the forces of the other two axes cancel out. 'The Elites' doesn't want you to know this.

/hj?


Heh Heh Heh, the D&D standard approach. ;)


I remember when publishers were suing individuals using nothing more than a list of IP addresses. Those crazy times seem to have come around again.
