Final Fantasy IV Java Edition would be a pretty wild guess by anyone's standards. I certainly wouldn't have thought of it, and I'm an ex-java developer who speaks Japanese and was …

Doesn't mean absolutely everyone knows who absolutely everyone is.

I've been rethinking IoT devices lately. All that Alexa has actually been useful for is "Alexa, what's the time?", "Alexa, what day is it?", "Alexa, set a 2 minute timer", and "Ale…

I ran OSForensics on the machine last night. It was my first time running a tool like this, and I while I didn't manage to find a smoking gun, I did find some questionable files ma…

I did notice the rate limiting message isn't there anymore when using GPT-4.

I definitely think this is playing a role. I've seen reports of people saying "oh it now refuses to act as my therapist" and "it wouldn't write my essay for me". Those are just a c…

>To me, it feels like it's started giving superficial responses and encouraging follow-up elsewhere -- I wouldn't be surprized if its prompt has changed to something to that effect…

Right, I'm with you. I can totally appreciate what even small compromises can open up. My wife's laptop just got compromised a couple of weeks ago, and I've been diving down the se…

Are we talking crypto backdoors or like the CEO of SolarWinds?

We should also stay skeptical of all the internet conspiracy theories too. I don't think anyone can actually tell which is which on this topic.

Everyone pretty much is problematic.

That seems naive in the extreme.

I don't know that it's meaningful to throw out numbers like 20 or 30 years anymore. I've seen enough experts make predictions in this field and be wrong that the only prediction I'…

I dunno. I'll take my high tax rate and universal healthcare any day.

Maybe because I'm from one of the countries that doesn't have school shootings, so everytime I see that shit on the news I think I sure am relieved I can send my kid to school and …

Or, you know, compare the number of school shootings to literally any other country in the world? The fact that there are school shootings for the media to report on at all is so c…

The number one problem for generalized intelligence is establishing trust.

The data present in the conscious experience of human beings is something I've been thinking about a lot lately. It's definitely a very important part of the puzzle and it's missin…

Lawyers know the system is fucked and also basically advise false to give false confessions sometimes too, since it's hopeless after a certain point and trying to fight it is seen …

Unfortunately trusting something with capabilities that generalize isn't an easy thing to do.

It's called the tyres.

I started out with a 1080ti that I had lying around. Within days upgraded to an RTX3060. Within weeks of that upgraded to an RTX 4090. In retrospect I wish I had of known that "buy…

Not a bad idea.

As much as your budget allows for.
