Ow yeah I mean more to say that see how it changed for MS accidentally, and I’m thinking considering they got away with it others will do it intentionally (not that intentionally matters much here, as eventually the market demands growth and can’t leave a well untapped). The MS change was over decades iirc.

Google says they don’t collect that data. That the processing is done ok device rather than requiring to be sent back to Google for processing. They say that this data won’t be used to further train the AI. People don’t trust it

Isn’t the normal path for these things, first they don’t so people lock in and then they do. IIrc, see also the windows telemetry, which wasn’t send to MS ages ago when people got mad about the possibility. But now it is.

Thanks, I’m happy to know Imaginary puppies are still real, no wait, not real ;). (The BBB is cool, wasn’t aware of it, I don’t keep up sadly. “Thus BBB is even more uncomputable than BB.” always like that kind of stuff, like the different classes of infinity).

Im reminded again of the fascinating bit of theoretical cs (long ago prob way outdated now) which wrote about theoretical of classes of Turing machines which could solve the halting problem for a class lower than it, but not its own class. This is also where I got my oracle halting problem solver from.

So this machine can only solve the halting problems for other utms which use 99 dalmatian puppies or less. (Wait would a fraction of a puppy count? Are puppies Real or Natural? This breaks down if the puppies are Imaginary).

Pretty good news tbh. That means that the power demand is driven by users, and we can influence it a little bit, and not just by repeatedly training new models over and over because somebody left a new comment somewhere. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XKQJXJOVGE4

Revealing just how forever online I am, but due to talking about the ‘I like to watch’ pornographic 9/11 fan music video from the Church of Euthanasia (I’m one of the two people who remembers this it seems) I discovered that the main woman behind this is now into AI-Doom. On the side of the paperclips. General content warnings all around (suicide, general bad taste etc), Chris was banned from a big festival (lowlands) in The Netherlands over the 9/11 video, after she was already booked (we are such a weird exclave of the USA, why book her, and then get rid of her over a 9/11 video in 2002?). Here is one of her conversations with chatgpt about the Churches anti-humanist manifesto. linked here not because I read it but just to show how AI is the idea that eats everything and I was amused by this weird blast from the past I think nobody recalls but now also into AGI.

Yeah indeed, had not even thought of the timegap. And it is such a bit of bullshit misdirection, very Muskian, to pretend that this fake transparency in any way solves the problem. We don’t know what the bad prompt was nor who did it, and as shown here, this fake transparency prevents nothing. Really wished more journalists/commentators were not just free pr.
