Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Gen AI and big tech makes me dread the future.English
4·22 hours agoWell, for one thing, among the general public, AI is less popular than ICE.

And the economics of AI don’t add up, so it can’t last forever. And everything that can’t last forever eventually stops.
I’m not gonna pretend everything is guaranteed to be fine, but I feel like we genuinely have a lot on our side.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Teleportation machines exist. Most people use them, and they come out the other side just fine. Would you use them?English
2·5 days agoEmerson Green convinced me that p-zombies are plausible. So there’s no way to know if a teleporter would end your consciousness.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•where do the people in my dreams go when I wake up?English
61·13 days ago“Where” is a question that applies to the physical world. The dream people are constituted of something more fundamental than matter.

21·17 days agoThe stuck-on residue is real.
But here’s the brutal reality: it’s not just residue; it’s residon’t.
Options:
- A: (recommended) do the dishes
- B: don’t do the dishes
- C: mix of both
All artwork for the series was hand-drawn by Anna Rettberg (https://x.com/aerettberg) without generative AI.
For context:
Demetri Spanos (PhD) is a 25+ year veteran of AI development. He wanted to speak out about the negative turn that his field has taken, but he didn’t have an audience so he turned to…
Casey Muratori, an accomplished software developer with a considerable media presence. He makes a good fit for Demetri in this case because while Casey himself is an AI skeptic, much of Casey’s audience are young professional devs who are probably using AI (whether enthusiastically or reluctantly) in the workplace. Exactly the audience Demetri hopes to reach.
The title of the video should be read as “the ethical questions and proposed frameworks that have appeared throughout the past 30 years of AI research”, not “an affirmative argument for the question of whether the current crop of AI software is ethical”.
(Spoiler: Demetri makes strong arguments that the industry entered unethical territory more than 15 years ago)

Funny@sh.itjust.works•Where do you see yourself in 5 years?English
6·22 days agoThat would be good news though. Either electronics got cheap again (enough to be used as arrowheads) or we’ve taken the chips back from the evil megacorps that are hoarding them.

No you do have one, trust me, just keep look — No, you can’t just use the “other slash”, and it’s called “backslash”. … Well because different things mean different things, Phil. sigh Just, it’s the one you think of when you write a fraction. No that’s a hyphen. It’s angled, remember? Why did you type 5? Oh, the percent sign. No I see why that — Well, because you didn’t use the shift key. Yeah it’s the one — You just hit enter, didn’t you?
“Did you just have Claude ship all this code?”
“Yep”
“You shouldn’t ship code you don’t understand…”
“Good point. Claude, go understand this code for me!”

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Why do people have issues with OnlyFans Models and Porn Stars.English
7·1 month agoSome people genuinely have a problem with it.
But I’m convinced that the majority of it is just: It’s embarrassing (and therefore costs social capital) to defend it.
So therefore: If you attach it to something else you want to attack, you just gave yourself a strategic advantage.

Not taking a side in this thread, but you might wanna learn more about the Luddites. Their story is very relevant to today.


Ah, went and checked my work laptop this morning. It’s actually set to:
!”git reset —hard HEAD && git clean -fdxgit itis the one that’s set to upstream.I also have
git some:add -p,git away:checkout -p,git out:!”git merge —abort 2> /dev/null || git rebase —abort 2> /dev/null #”And some complicated ones I’m not gonna type on my phone:
git on <foo>where foo is either “it”, in which case I use the appropriate main/master/develop branch and rebase on it; or foo is “up” in which case I do apull —rebaseand play a short audio clip of Get On Up; or foo is a nonexistent branch, in which case I massage the requested branch name to adhere to some conventions and then make a new branch and set the remote tracking branchgit with <foo>where the same “it” logic applies but it’s a merge; or foo is a commit SHA and it gets cherry-pickedgit upis just a pull but it plays a short audio clip of Get On Upgit rektat one point, but I think it just did the same asgit gudso I deleted it
