Who in the world said western state propaganda was a good thing? Military recruitment and political ads are pretty universally hated.
I might also add that western tech giants and media aren’t directly owned by the state, nor is the state a dictatorship, so it’s a little different? You think Elon’s Twitter is on the same side as Bidens Executive is on the same side as the conservative Congress?
Everytime Firefox updates I have to restart the entire browser or it won’t let me open a new tab. This has been going on for years. As a dev, I can’t dynamically edit source during runtime ever since the Quantum update. It’s noticeably slower these days, which is especialy bad on mobile/laptops due to battery life. If you’re on Windows, you don’t get video super sampling (NVIDIA) or HDR videos.
I wouldn’t call it a buggy mess that crashes frequently, but it’s certainly constantly getting on my nerves.
It’s mid-way through 2023, so 3.5 years, right? That seems a little generous, but reasonable. Products for the next year are likely already designed and finished. Then it’ll take time for companies to redesign their devices now that they have to totally change how their chassis are designed, how they achieve IPS resistances, to source the new part, etc.
It would quickly need to be an allow list. It’s basically free to spool up an instance with Docker, it’d make those randomly named Chinese companies on Amazon look slim.
For instance: it could help remote villages or third world countries. But Starlink costs a pretty penny in western money those places lack. Otherwise they would already have traditional infrastructure.
I use it all day at my job now. Ironically, on a specialization more likely to overfit.
It may be a statistical model, but ultimately nothing prevents that model from overfitting, i.e. memoizing its training data.
This seems to imply that not only did entire books accidentally get downloaded, slip past the automated copyright checker, but that it happened so often that the AI saw the same so many times it overwhelmed other content and baked, without error and at great opportunity cost, an entire book into it. And that it was rewarded for doing so.
AI could have free access to all public source codes on GitHub without respecting their licenses.
IANAL, but aren’t their licenses are being respected up until they are put into a codebase? At least insomuch as Google is allowed to display code snippets in the preview when you look up a file in a GitHub repo, or you are allowed to copy a snippet to a StackOverflow discussion or ticket comment.
I do agree regulation is a very good idea, in more ways than just citation given the potential economic impacts that we seem clearly unprepared for.
Not really, though it’s hard to know what exactly is or is not encoded in the network. It likely has more salient and highly referenced content, since those aspects would come up in it’s training set more often. But entire works is basically impossible just because of the sheer ratio between the size of the training data and the size of the resulting model. Not to mention that GPT’s mode of operation mostly discourages long-form wrote memorization. It’s a statistical model, after all, and the enemy of “objective” state.
Furthermore, GPT isn’t coherent enough for long-form content. With it’s small context window, it just has trouble remembering big things like books. And since it doesn’t have access to any “senses” but text broken into words, concepts like pages or “how many” give it issues.
None of the leaked prompts really mention “don’t reveal copyrighted information” either, so it seems the creators really aren’t concerned — which you think they would be if it did have this tendency. It’s more likely to make up entire pieces of content from the summaries it does remember.
Doesn’t the ROG Ally just use Windows?
I imagine apps and frontends should implement a hook to prevent this. It’ll be a lot easier to enforce that way.
Fair cop.
Lots of good reasons to bag on Spez, but this isn’t one. That was way back in the day when anyone could be added as a moderator without consent.
The overwhelming vast majority of mods are not power mods and did it because they liked their communities. They’re good people who worked hard to make a safe, fun place for others.
When awkward turtle got banned, they were happy too.
Most American allies depend on the US for defense, the US is the largest economy in the world, and the US is the largest ideological counterpart to countries like Russia - who want to use force to annihilate both dissent and opposition.
It absolutely matters to most well-informed citizens of any country the world over how we conduct ourselves because it does directly impact them. That’s part of the reason we should be better than we are.
I mean, you’re preaching to the choir. Most folk here didn’t want to send their kids to die in 'Nam or Afghanistan. Vets didn’t sign up to risk their lives for opium fields. American citizens were duped too.
We’re on the same side here.
I didn’t say that, but they take out ad campaigns and use PR firms like a normal company. Twitter does not work for the US government and the US government does not rig the algorithm it uses for feeds. The Washington Post is not controlled by the US government. Amazon is not controlled by the US government.
The distinction between that and what China or Russia does is important. They own the media. They own the companies. They own every method of communication and every interaction between their people. And they leverage that direct power to control narratives to say things like “Taiwan belongs to China” and “Ukraine belongs to Russia” and “Tianemen Square never happened”.
Meanwhile, you can see all the atrocities the US government did on Wikipedia. Sometimes even on the websites of the state itself. Reparations are discussed, sometimes won. Protesters fight with, yes, the risk of state violence, but not of tanks turning them into pudding that’s washed down the gutters. And with that knowledge, we can shape our own future democratically. Putin and Xi cannot be voted out.
All this is a long-winded way to say:
