I mean, you can already download models that have been fine tuned to fix issues with hands… but still it’s great that they continue to improve the model!

I agree with the hesitancy on WD. They’re also starting to automatically flag NAS drives older than 3 years with a warning flag. Plus when they shipped out SMR drives as Red drives a few years back… https://youtu.be/cLGi8sPLkLY

Alright, I’m still new to all this federated stuff, but I heard there was a way that users could post across platforms including places like Mastodon.

So if I wanted to “like” or comment on that awesome video with this account, how would I do that?

I still haven’t found any good egg replacements either.
I’m either buying my eggs from neighbors who take care of the chickens themselves, or else I’m buying them from Vital Farms. At least they acknowledge that there’s a problem with how the industry handles male chicks and are actively investing in ways to change this.

Not only that. It seems like the article completely ignores how batteries can be recycled and assumes that every new battery undergoes the same manufacturing process.

This may be true in Europe and in cities for those who both live and work in the city. But for the vast majority in the U.S. It’s practically required to have a car if you want to work.

I understand what he’s suggesting and I do agree that we need to fix up our town planning.

And that’s why my point wasn’t that he’s wrong about his suggestions, just that, again, it’s “much easier said than done.”

For the foreseeable future, owning a car is the only reasonable way of getting around many parts of the U.S.

How long do you think it would take to fix up even half of the cities in the U.S?

How can we fast track it and what are reasonable expectations since there will be pushback from people?

In a way we would need some sort of Haussmannization to occur and that will not go well in the U.S.

This is much easier said than done. Around large parts of the United States you can’t reliably commute by public transit. For me personally, without a car, a one way 40 mile trip to the major city near me would take 5 hours. That’s 2 different trains and 2 different busses.

Add that to the fact that the station closest to me only has a few trains a day and my options are very limited.

Even if we ignore the current train schedule and assume that trains come by every 5 min, it would still be a 2 hour trip that costs me $20 for one way. I could then bike the rest of the way and avoid the last 2 buses.

There are rail passes I could get, but those would cost $477/month. It’s cheaper to lease a Tesla at that point.

Owning a car is pretty much the only reasonable way of getting around for many parts of the U.S.

Interesting, I didn’t realize that Russia was already renting out the base pre-2014. Thank you for that context.

Hmm you raise an interesting point. I do agree that it’s helpful to explain to someone why they’re being downvoted.

An experimental feature might be to allow downvotes only if you reply, or else you can choose to down vote a comment if you also upvote a response to the downvoted comment.

Perhaps an option could be that Ukraine gets their land back, but there’s some agreement that Russia can rent out the land around the port at Sevastopol.

Ukraine gets paid for the use of their land (and ultimately they still own it), and Russia gets exclusive access to that part of the port where they can do whatever they need.

Beehaw just removes the downvote button entirely, so there is a community for that.

Yeah, another use that I know I’ll be using it for (or at least Bing’s Chat) will be summarizing large documents (especially in the sense of becoming a more informed voter).

I don’t have time to read through the thousands of pages of legalese that our lawmakers come up with. But instead of having to wait or only rely on summaries from others I can run it through an AI to give summaries of each section and then read into anything that piques my interest.

It might be interesting to even train a smaller LLM that does this more efficiently.

The next step would be a LLM that pays more attention to unintended consequences of laws due to the way they’re written. But for something really effective I imagine that would require the assistance of a large number of experts in the field… And/Or a lot of research on laws being overturned, loopholes fixed, etc.

Even then it’s important that we understand that these tools are far from perfect. And we should question results rather than accepting them at face value.

Glad someone mentioned the lawyer that screwed up by including ChatGPT’s fake cited sources. It will be interesting to see what comes from this.

Additionally not a lot of people realize that they’ve signed an indemnification clause when using ChatGPT (or what that means).

Basically OpenAI can send you the legal bills for any lawsuits that come from your use of ChatGPT. So if you “jailbroke” ChatGPT and posted an image of it telling you the recipe to something illegal. OpenAI could end up with a lawsuit on their hands and they would bill that user for all of the legal fees incurred.

Possibly the first case of this we’ll see will be related to the defamation case that a certain Mayor from Australia could have against OpenAI. https://gizmodo.com/openai-defamation-chatbot-brian-hood-chatgpt-1850302595

Even if OpenAI wins the lawsuit they will most likely bill the user who posted the image of ChatGPT defaming the mayor.

I switched to other non-google search engines (Brave Search/DuckDuckGo) before chatGPT.
I use ChatGPT for ideas and suggestions, or when I get stuck on something. I treat it like a very knowledgeable person who usually gets their sources mixed up.
ChatGPT points me in the right direction and that’s enough to dig deeper into whatever it is I’m trying to do.

It’s excellent for pseudo-code, but in my experience it isn’t reliable with actual code.
