Wanna bet that it was the Russians?

Fuck the Indian state and its enablers.

“Hey kid, want some happysticks?”

I don’t understand why the knee jerk reaction for everything is just “ban it”.

You want to reduce the exposure of children to predators? Moderate the platforms. We can agree that Reddit n Lemmy’s moderation is a lot better than Instagram’s moderation. Why don’t we start with that???

The biggest way predators do their predatoring is by sliding into ur DMs. You could restrict this by requiring approval for all such new DMs by a parent’s account or something. There r just so many ways that social media can be made safer for kids.

Social media is a digital townsquare. Sure, there r some malicious actors lurking about. Does that mean that kids should just be banned from this townsquare? No. The townsquare should be made safer for kids. There must be some hand-holding for kids in the beginning so that they can learn how to make the best use of this infrastructure in the future.

Governmental overreach. Good luck trying to enforce this shit.

Social media isn’t bad inherently. Addictive algorithms, violation of user privacy, etc. is bad.

Kids should be taught how to make use of social media for good. I was bullied quite a lot as a kid. Social media is what kinda brought me out of it.

Social media told 13 year old me, that it is alright to be gay. Social media is what made me interested in politics. A huge part of who I am today is because of the nice people I met online. Fuck the government for trying to take it away from others like me.

Wow, the SpaceX engineers really are good, huh. Amazing stuff!

Very interesting video, I had no idea the level of redundancy built into QR codes.

RIGHT?!! Same here. I didn’t know there was SO MUCH of thought put behind QR codes. I always assumed they were just bits visually represented in 2D with the three black squares being there for alignment purposes. Turns out it is a lot more complicated than that hehe

Thanks!

Dayum, that’s nice! Maybe I’ll use it if I ever want to learn a new language

Does Duolingo come up with personalised tests n stuff? Never used it much haha

Did u read the abstract? They’re presenting a framework to use LLMs as educators in higher education. It’s quite cool really.

The idea is to create a professor personalised for every student and their learning patterns. Imagine hiring a professor to personally teach you something. The professor talks to you, creates little tests specifically for what they think are your weaknesses are in the subject matter and so on.

This is very good for us as human researchers will now be able to dedicate (assuming this tech works) 100% of their time to research instead of teaching the same subject matter again and again every single year, coming up with tests, marking tests, grading their students’ papers and so on.

If this tech is successful, then education costs would nosedive like crazy, which would be good for all.

I’m confident we should start seeing stuff like this soon. The upcoming ChatGPT model (forgot the version name) is doing recursive prompts for itself, where it breaks down a big task into smaller ones, then runs and reruns those tasks before coming up with an output.

Right now, all LLMs just do a single pass and spit out the output. They don’t reason with themselves like we do yet. It’s kinda like what we do in quiz competitions or something, where we immediately shout “blue” when asked “what color is the sky”. However, when asked something more complicated, we don’t just answer quickly based on intuition, do we? We pause, think, rethink, look for counter arguments, patch holes in our statements and so on.

This is the ability that LLMs lack now. However, very soon they will be able to do that. This just opens up a crazy amount of things that they can do. Take code for example. Right now, LLMs just spit out code without seeing if it works or not. Now, they’ll be able to run it themselves, look for errors, bugs and so on, fix them and finally submit the output code.

Stuff like this would supercharge them quite a lot. Now, I know that I’m going to be downvoted to hell for talking about AI, cuz lemmy hates it. Mark my words though - you’ll be able to do A LOT using LLMs because of this.

AI is going to exist and improve like crazy no matter what. The leftist position on this should be public ownership over these models and NOT pretending that they don’t exist.

If it is approved by the FDA? HECK YEAH BAYBEEE

No association with any account. Therefore, no profiling.

I was using the quantized version :(

But again, do remember that this was when the first open sourced AI models had just begun to come out. Stuff from Open Assistant for example. I don’t even remember the name of the model that I was running (it was just too weird and funny lol). I just remember it being HUGE, quite dumb and making my device sweat lol.

HOLY HELL THAT’S COOL. It can do so much too!!!

I locally installed some small LLM model more than a year ago. It took up like 25 gigs or something along with all CUDA libraries n stuff. It was alright, but I figured that cloud based solutions were the best for my use case, as they were better and for free.

I had no idea that open sourced AI progressed so much in the last year. Amazing stuff!

RIGHT?!!! IT’S SO FKIN AMAZING

This is especially going to be useful for me as a student. It’s just feels like browser 2.0 at this point haha

Don’t want to install and maintain 10gigs of cuda stuff on my PC. Next, my mum won’t know how to do that. Her laptop is a potato. This add-on makes all of this way easier.

OAN, I think over time, the community will see that AI was a bubble, but in the same way that the internet was a bubble back in the day.

Surprised to see this opinion on Lemmy haha. Yep, totally agree with ya here!

Ok. But I like typing like that. ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

Oh. Ok. Ig I am “weirdly lazy” then. No harm in that I suppose.
