    There really needs to be criminal penalties for this kind of behavior. You can't just let autonomous agents hack people through your own negligence and then claim "oh sorry wasn't …

    If what you want is the "Why", you're right it probably won't get it right. It'll just give you baseless speculation. But if what you want is the "What" or the "How", I think it ca…

    By that logic we shouldn't lock up murderers either. After all, it won't help the person who's already dead.

    Genuine question here, why would you ask Fable to explain the difference between tusks and teeth? That's a task that can probably be handled by Haiku.

    Luckily for you, as far as I can tell you don't have any concrete reason to fear having your repos taken down. Or at least I haven't been given any. If the reason is more emotional…

    That seems like a completely different concern than what you originally stated? You're not worried about future policies, you're worried about the policy that was just passed. And …

    You are effectively saying you do not trust the judgement of the community to accept you long term. Why is that? Is it because you believe there would be a new policy that would ex…

    I think this move by Codeberg is lowkey genius. They're trying to build a community based on a set of shared values. Those who disagree with those values are now self-selecting out…

    Yes it does. Biometric information (e.g a picture of your face) is famously not nearly as protected under the 4th amendment compared to things like passwords. Anyone opting into th…

    HuggingFace does not decide who gets charged with crimes. Plenty of people go to prison for crimes the victim didn't want them prosecuted for.

    Clearly, a violation of the CFAA has occurred. Now the question is, who should be prosecuted for it? (The answer "nobody" is trivially wrong and should not be considered.)

    The reason this was "easy" is because the conjecture turned out to be false. If the collatz conjecture holds true (and most mathematicians seem to think it will), it will be much h…

    Right... So since it's a big problem, shouldn't we at least be considering it as a possibility so that we can minimize the impact?

    Agreed. If I'm attending higher education as an adult, I expect to be treated as one. Laptops may be harmful to learning for some students, but may be extremely helpful for others.…

    What does NYT's reporting on AI have to do with you? Why exactly is it "playing dirty"? And what about that justifies OpenAI lying to the court (which is a felony crime)?

    It's pretty obvious this comment didn't come from a Canadian. Because if it was, you'd know that Palantir is elbow-deep in the Trump administration, the same one that has repeatedl…

    This Wikipedia article seems completely irrelevant to the quote you posted. They're clearly talking about commercial nuclear energy plants, not orphan sources from radiography and …

    You're saying this like I would see that 5k in my bank account. If I'm 5% more productive that probably wouldn't even make it into annual review, let alone pay.

    If a deal has been reached and the war with Iran is really over as Donald says it is, why is this necessary?

    Yes, yes it is impossible. And I'm sure ChatGPT could easily tell you why.

    Or they could lay off some middle managers. If they blame the layoffs on AI the market might even reward them for it.

    I didn't even know you could return clothes from most retailers. From online would make sense (you have no way of knowing if it'll fit right), but from a physical store you really …
