I double-checked everything, but that's beside the point. I was replying to GGP's insinuation that ChatGPT is unreliable. In my experience, it's more likely to return correct resul…

I have been recently forking off a subproject from Git repo. After spending a lot of time messing around with it and getting into a lot of unforeseen trouble, I finally asked ChatG…

Is it just me or is this post screaming with self-consciousness and political correctness? Author is self-censoring policy suggestions and social/cultural insights, which I persona…

"[GPT4] literally will just do whatever you ask" So vanilla LLM does what the user wants, which happens to be, well, exactly what users want from LLMs. Guardrails are not necessary…

From the transcript (cleaned up a bit): "I started to get a little bit meta with it and I'm like I'm worried that AI progress is going too fast and I wonder if there's anything tha…

It's interesting that so many people present this argument now that we actually do have AIs worthy of the name. LLMs can perform an unbounded range of tasks with human-level perfor…

You might well be right. Furthermore, English is on its way to become the universal language everyone speaks. You are however wrong about comparing AW to translators, which are pro…

Wikifunctions is primarily intended to support Wikimedia projects, especially Abstract Wikipedia. It is the code complement to Wikidata lexemes. It might be used for cross-wiki tem…

Nah, about 3 months ago, I made ChatGPT write detailed hierarchical plan on how AI can conquer the world. The plan was severely flawed, of course. You need way more than brains to …

Yeah, sure, let's implement this dystopian nightmare technology to solve our little engineering problem.

Speaking from experience, babies and toddlers will attempt to do absolutely everything, including flying (which will fail) and using smartphones (where they succeed remarkably). Le…

Back then phones were as personal as a public phone booth. The way phones are used today resembles cybernetic enhancement more than tool use. That's where the concern for privacy c…

Someone should bring up lawyer and doctor privilege as an argument. Phones are intimately personal devices that people take to their homes and use for a lot of very private stuff. …

In order to distribute illegal material, you have to go public with it, i.e. contact strangers. One of those strangers is going to be a police agent or a snitch seeking favors from…
