You know, Custom Robo is awesome. I’ll gladly sit down, play it and lament the fact there wasn’t a new once since the DS game. That’s way better than watching some random stuff on Netflix.

I don’t think I ever got punched in the face. Haven’t even been in a fight.

I can get behind the logic of more screen time probably meaning less physical activity. But someone needs to explain to me how eating less would ever lead to weight gain. Especially when your typical breakfast junk is just as unhealthy as snacking could ever be.

I still don’t think the tech is there. My current phone is 6 years old and there still is no reason to get a new one - I couldn’t imagine a foldable lasting that long. The ones I’ve seen in person didn’t age particulary well.

It seems like only missing teeth will regrow (at least in the tested animals), however, that should include both wisdom teeth or otherwise intentionally missing ones.

That’s not actually all that surprising. The far-right, at least in Germany, is far more prominent on social media. It sucks but I don’t think we can prevent that. We have a lot of complex problems but social media favors short answers instead of complex ones. A lot of younger people simply lack the critical thinking to see these simple answers for what they are - bullshit. And I can’t blame them, they have been exposed to this bullshit for most of their lives.

I’m surprised you needed to research that. How else would Turkey magically increase their oil exports that much? I assume people simply didn’t care. They had their symbolic ban and didn’t need to decrease their oil consumption.

I’ve always assumed the song was about Woodstock, simply because it was during the summer of '69. You made me look it up.

That thing is supposed to be a celebration of all Pokemon as it is #1000.

Make the artstyle more Pokemon-esque and they are much better than the actual gold Pokemon, Gholdengo. That thing is such a disappointment.

I don’t necessarily disagree. You can certainly use LLMs and achieve something in less time than without it. Numerous people here are speaking about coding and while I had no success with them, it can work with more popular languages. The thing is, these people use LLMs as a tool in their process. They verify the results (or the compiler does it for them). That’s not what this product is. It’s a standalone device which you talk to. It’s supposed to replace pulling out your phone to answer a question.

I don’t expect a correct answer because I’ve used these models quite a lot last year. At least half the answers were hallucinated. And it’s still a common complaint about this product as well if you look at actual reviews (e.g., pretty sure Marques Brownlee mentions it).

Obviously the only contexts that would apply here are ones where you expect a correct answer.

That’s the whole point, I don’t expect correct answers. Neither from a 4 year old nor from a probabilistic language model.

1% correct is never “fairly high” wtf

It’s all about context. Asking a bunch of 4 year olds questions about trigonometry, 1% of answers being correct would be fairly high. ‘Fairly high’ basically only means ‘as high as expected’ or ‘higher than expected’.

Also if you want a computer that you don’t have to double check, you literally are expecting software to embody the concept of God. This is fucking stupid.

Hence, it is useless. If I cannot expect it to be more or less always correct, I can skip using it and just look stuff up myself.

I haven’t seen much of them here, but I use other media too. E.g, not long ago there was a lot of coverage about the “Humane AI Pin”, which was utter garbage and even more expensive.

“Fairly high” is still useless (and doesn’t actually quantify anything, depending on context both 1% and 99% could be ‘fairly high’). As long as these models just hallucinate things, I need to double-check. Which is what I would have done without one of these things anyway.

Why are there AI boxes popping up everywhere? They are useless. How many times do we need to repeat that LLMs are trained to give convincing answers but not correct ones. I’ve gained nothing from asking this glorified e-waste something, pulling out my phone and verifying it.

They have not, left is the more recent post. The right one could be real and is just recreated by these bots.

Back then things were more stringent and memes had fixed formats. The same set of pictures, posted over and over again with new text - I can see how one might dislike those. But nowadays the definition is kinda watered down and meme just boils down to “funny picture”, even if they are only posted once. I don’t think you can dislike those in their entirety without just disliking fun itself.

So… he thinks his syllables are ‘Chri’ and ‘s’?
