I think that’s the guy who just won the election in Argentina

LLMs can reason about information. It’s fine to call them intelligent systems.

It’s reasonable to refer to unsupervised learning as “learning on its own”.

I’ve been told many times that China controls Reddit and that’s a 5% stake, so …

Lol, wait till you see the specs

There’s something wonky about the css on the second site. There’s significant horizontal scrolling, but I can’t zoom out.

They can’t. It’s unenforceable.

Sure. Just keep in mind that settlers aren’t random innocent civilians.

An LLM trained exclusively on Facebook would be hilarious. It’d be like the Monty Python argument skit.

I’d discuss options with the HOA, but you do you.

Why would you say something so blatantly silly?

Are you implying that helping birds avoid windows is an unsolved problem?

Wtf. Would you please do something about that?

Going by OP’s name and post history… absolutely

And then an asteroid hits

You could get up and do something about it right now.

They were sensory deprived to an extreme extent. It doesn’t matter that there are people around if you can’t see them, can’t hear them, can’t feel them. You’re severely downplaying the effect of that to make the box seem worse.

In the box, you can stimulate your hearing so you won’t get auditory hallucinations. You can also feel things and tap the side of the box, etc. I assume it’s dark, so you may get some visual hallucinations. I’m not sure how darkness affects that. It’s manageable, though.

Isolation is torture when it’s a very long or even indeterminate duration. Two days is a duration that most people can endure, as per the experiment. You know that going in and can prepare yourself mentally.

I’ve endured severe pain, I’ve endured panic attacks, and I’ve endured bad trips without time and a fractured reality. I don’t know what kind of life you’ve led, but my experience tells me that while two days in a box is absolutely going to be a miserable experience, it will quickly be forgotten.

Edit: And with a million bucks, I can pay for a good therapist, which I need regardless.

You’re just asserting things without evidence or reason.

Most people in voluntary isolation (with sensory deprivation too!) will quit after a couple of days. I don’t know what $20 a day amounts to in today’s money, but it ain’t a million.

I’ve tripped balls where the concept of time was torn asunder. Wasn’t a great time, but time still passed by, and my mind didn’t “break” or whatever it is people believe will happen.

You can’t actually experience a lifetime in those moments of eternity.
