Or people could take away different things, especially since post-2014 (?) Scott approaches controversial issues much more cautiously and deliberately made known (Kolmogorov) that he was never going to fully honest around certain topics, inviting (deliberately or not, accurate or not) Straussian readings.
Ugh. These people seem sad and they make me sad.
Spam machines are only ever funny or interesting by accident. The more they smooth out the wrinkles the more creatively useless they become. The tension is sort of fascinating.
Like I’ve always been interested in generative poetry and other manglings of text, and ChatGPT’s so fucking dull compared to putting a sentence through babelfish a few times.
AI systems are for when you can’t decide between malice and incompetence.
I like how even the “correct” response at the end has got this paragraph of absolute nonsense.
To minimize the number of trips, the robot should use a strategy that reduces the number of elevator rides. Since the elevator can carry the robot and up to 3 other items, the robot can take all 4 vegetables in one trip if it is allowed to carry all of them at once. However, if the robot can only carry 3 items in addition to itself, it would need to make at least two trips.
And I hate how even though I know perfectly well how it works I still asked myself what it was trying to say here. God I hate chatbots. I hate the mockery of meaning.
Of course I ignore your warnings and proceed to read this shit from the beginning.
And before you say, as many people I’m sure will, that language changes or evolves and so forth: shall I presume many of you have no objection to being called ‘nazis’ in the standard twitter-left definition? Shall I treat all drunk sex as ‘rape’ because kidnapper-rape and frat-sex have the commonality of reduced consent? Shall I treat your remarks about this-or-that group as ‘hate speech’, or ‘violence’, in the form of speech? Clearly, we have some sense by which concept creep exists; by which definitions can be stretched dishonestly. That is what you’re doing, and you know what you’re doing.
Cool. Cool. This is fun.
To be honest, as someone who’s very interested in computer generated text and poetry and the like, I find generic LLMs far less interesting than more traditional markov chains because they’re too good at reproducing clichés at the exclusion of anything surprising or whimsical. So I don’t think they’re very good for the unfactual either. Probably a homegrown neural network would have better results.
Having a conscience? There’s no career in that!
Ah man, if there’s one thing autistic kids love, it’s the sudden and arbitrary removal of an object they depend on!
It’s just a tool, like cars! My definition of tools is things that are being forced on us even though they’re terrible for the environment and make everyone’s life worse!
