    The top comment right now is essentially explaining my issue here. My problem isn't really the pro or anti stance, this is a booster account that is farming off of the engagement. …

    Given the incentives (an ai booster account who is also prompting chat to write his posts) does this even belong on HN? I feel like our standards have dropped so much in the last t…

    Tbf, this current era of capitalism really is a lot where absolutely no one wants to enter the market and take advantage of a clear overpricing of memory for consumers but simply w…

    You can't be serious about conflating a host of technologies with fucking image generation or all things. This is the worst HN comment I've seen in months and there's been loads of…

    You shouldn't promote something like this as being useful for medical purposes, because some patients might think this is real and start sending their doctors these "scans" or even…

    Clearly something like this would need to be approved by the FDA, it is literally irresponsible to promote something like this as being more powerful than a MRI.

    Man no wonder ai wows a lot of HN posters. This can't be the default attitude of developers today.

    This is likely because the government fears of protests. Just like the bans in the west were mostly about anti Israel/ pro Palestinian rhetoric, this is a response to the anti Gove…

    American moderates are amazing. "Let's see how suburban republicans feel about this that Trump has done! He's really spoiled his chances next election!" You guys have been waiting …

    He just needs to profess his love for our country (the president, you know how Trump says attacks on him are attacks on the whole country) and may be say he has dirt on the deep st…

    There is no contradiction between the points made so far. His base loves it and the majority of americans do not. He won by a marginal victory just like in 2016. The current system…

    Also there is a bit of inertia. In people's imaginations, the US still seems to glimmer, even if the reality isn't the same.

    I will say, there are a non-zero number of people who were rooting for Trump and the American right wing in general who are now surprised the fascists are turning on them. I don't …

    >I don't really get why some people seem to think that it's somehow better to have their bullet point prompt as a huge text. Because they want to mislead you.

    At this point, I think google, openai, anthropic, etc already realise this and are just trying to pretend this isn't true. I even think some C-suite who are not in AI companies but…

    So, I'm not really a mathematician, but the first 3-8 pages reads like nonsense and a bunch of unrelated facts. A bit surreal may be, but if this the norm for this kind of thing, I…

    Be sure to give it your bank account details and pin number too, so it can fill out that section of the 1040.

    Of course just like they did with engineering IP china will not respect such a thing.

    I think the context makes it clear this is about llms and generative ai, not everything that includes a NN

    It's tempting to assume malice, I don't doubt some of them really are so spiteful, but I assume most are just that out of touch.

    There once was an rpg that had you move boxes around and fight random box encounters, and the battles were likewise just deducting each other's hp in turn with a rng. There was no …

    Frankly, if you think this, why do you think you're special? If people using LLMs are bad, how are you not also subject to the same issues they are?

    Is there a citation for this? This was my suspicion but it's quite amazing if this was the actual reason for the bun spectacle
