Don't let it fall

I'm aware, it's miniscule including that. Without it it would be near zero

It's so annoying, because both are technically grammatically correct, but the current one just sounds the opposite

This was several weeks ago
edit: I guess it happened again

Water in data center is cyclic. AI uses a miniscule amount of water compared to most things in our economy

I remember someone tested this. They lasted like eight hours until some neighbor called a cop

An unattractive anime girl? Is that even possible?

Dude if your wife hasn't figured it out, you might want to consider if maybe you are just a little stupid

Pretty sure everyone does, but they will take you through it first, not drop the topic change without context.
Also it's considered weird and off topic, so even if they think it they don't bring it up

Damn, I should really play it huh

Your mistake is trying to understand their policies as themselves

That correction ended two years ago. This is larger and longer.
There's interest rates, section 174, AI, and heaven knows what else.

What about lemmings :-)

What % of the population actually fought in the war?

What do you define as thinking if not a bunch of signals firing in your brain?

I'm not saying humans are always aware of when they're correct, merely how confident they are. You can still be confidently wrong and know all sorts of incorrect info.
LLMs aren't aware of anything like self confidence

That's fine. I do that often. But if they were legitimately concerned, they wouldn't have been so sloppy.

The y key difference is humans are aware of what they know and don't know and when they're unsure of an answer. We haven't cracked that for AIs yet.
When AIs do say they're unsure, that's their understanding of the problem, not an awareness of their own knowledge

AIs use a lot less resources rn, but humans are also constantly doing a hundred other things beyond answering questions

And how do you think it predicts that? All that complex math can be clustered into higher level structures. One could almost call it.. thinking.
Besides we have reasoning models now, so they can emulate thinking if nothing else

Scroll was just for reading websites though. Musk seems to want We chat style super app

Evidence of a social evaluation penalty for using AI
cross-posted from: https://lemmy.ml/post/30013197
Significance
As AI tools become increasingly prevalent in workplaces, understanding the social dynamics of AI adoption is crucial. Through four experiments with over 4,400 participants, we reveal a social penalty for AI use: Individuals who use AI tools face negative judgments about their competence and motivation from others. These judgments manifest as both anticipated and actual social penalties, creating a paradox where productivity-enhancing AI tools can simultaneously improve performance and damage one’s professional reputation. Our findings identify a potential barrier to AI adoption and highlight how social perceptions may reduce the acceptance of helpful technologies in the workplace.
Abstract
Despite the rapid proliferation of AI tools, we know little about how people who use them are perceived by others. Drawing on theories of attribution and impression management, we propose that people believe they will b

Anyone experienced insta-crashing?
Was working fine this morning for me. No updates.
But now it keeps crashing and my phone shows popups saying "something went wrong with summit". Clearing the cache and force killing the app didn't help

I'm tempted to use Discord-esque "black hole" platforms due to AI scraping
discord is a black hole for information
Traditional reasoning says you should prefer open forums like lemmy that are available and searchable to the open web. After all, you're posting to help people, and that helps people the most. The platform (like reddit) may profit off of it, but that's fine, they're providing the platform for you to post. Fair deal.
Plus people coming for high quality information helps the community and topic back. You attract other high quality contributors, the more people use/partake in the topic you are discussing, the platform often improves with the revenue etc. It's not perfect, but it worked
AI scrapers break all that. The company profiting is the AI company, and they give nothing back. They model just holds all the information in its weights. It doesn't drive people to the source. Even the platform doesn't benefit from bot scraping. The addition of high quality data may improve the model on that topic and thus p

Republicans are cancelling town halls in their districts. I’m a Democrat and I went to find out what those voters would like to say to their elected officials.


Lemmy Users are willfully ignorant of AI's capabilities
Other platforms too, but I'm on lemmy. I'm mainly talking about LLMs in this post
First, let me acknowledge that AI is not perfect, it has limitations e.g
- tendency to hallucinate responses instead of refusing/saying it doesn't know
- different models/models sizes with varying capabilities
- lack of knowledge of recent topics without explicitly searching it
- tendency to be patternistic/repetitive
- inability to hold on to too much context at a time etc.
The following are also true:
- People often overhype LLMs without understanding their limitations
- Many of those people are those with money
- The term "AI" has been used to label everything under the sun that contains an algorithm of some sort
- Banana poopy banana (just to make sure ppl are reading this)
- There have been a number companies that overpromised for AI, and often were using humans as a "temporary" solution until they figured out the AI, which they never did (hence the gag, "AI" stands for "An Indian")
But I really

Rep. Ro Khanna (D-Calif.) Turns Republicans' Words Against Them in 'Drain the Swamp' Act Against Lobbyist Gifts: 'Trump Can Fulfill His Promise'

Rep. Ro Khanna (D-CA) put Republicans on the spot with the Drain the Swamp Act, aimed at banning White House officials from accepting gifts from lobbyists.

Rep. Ro Khanna (D-Calif.) put Republicans on the spot with the introduction of his Drain the Swamp Act, a bill aimed at banning White House officials from accepting gifts from lobbyists and preventing them from becoming lobbyists.
The bill directly challenges Trump to uphold his long-standing campaign promise to "drain the swamp" by eliminating government corruption.
President Trump campaigned around the country to 'drain the swamp', yet one of the first things he did was reverse President Biden's executive order that banned White House officials from accepting gifts from lobbyists," Khanna said on the House floor. "I believe that this bill will have support, not just from progressives, not just from independents, but from the MAGA movement."
Khanna's move forces Trump-aligned Republicans to either support stricter ethics reforms—aligning with Trump's past rhetoric—or reject the bill, which could be seen as backtracking on promises to clean up Washington.
