Also, we don't have free floating antibodies for that long do we? It's memory cells that ramp up antibodies in response to infection so surely having no antibodies doesn't mean you've got no memory cells. I'm not an immunologist though so my knowledge isn't great.

This also applies to something like the Amazon. The US and Europe did all this damage to their ecosystems with logging and mining for centuries, depleting forest and mineral stocks to industrialize and become developed... But Brasil, Colombia and Venezuela can't touch their Amazon rainforest because the outrage of them using those resources to industrialize is a big No No. And yes, I know why …

I get the feeling most of the commenters didn't read the article > The company has paid $3,500 to Bogdan Kulynych, a graduate student at Switzerland’s EFPL university, who demonstrated the bias in the algorithm, which is used to focus image previews on the most interesting parts of pictures, as part of a competition at the DEF CON security conference in Las Vegas. The algorithm in question *…

Learn to identify and oppose neoliberalism. While ostensibly an economic philosophy, in reality it's a ready made collection of excuses for insatiable greed, used to funnel money to the wealthy. Money doesn't "trickle down". Privatisation doesn't create efficiency. The "free market" doesn't have the power to solve the excesses of greed and exploitation. Self-regulation doesn't work. Small govern…

The writing notes/charting is already happening. My wife’s practice just started using an AI Medical Scribe and its pretty amazing actually. You just turn it on and walk into the patient’s room and it listens to the entire interaction with the patient and does the medical charting automatically. She said there’s usually a handful of things that need to be corrected or moved to the right sections …

I commented a couple months ago. They are thinking longterm, they re disrupting the US agi race profit model to the core, and weakening US tech aristocracy by giving both their competitors and their userbase better tools. They are basically using US milirary economic "fuck around and see what comes" on the ai arena.

I hate that chatgpt ruined em dashes lol. I like to use them and now I find myself editing them out of my comments because every time I use one someone accuses me of using chatgpt 😭 I just like my dashes bro

AI teaching people to give proper context and communicate in complete sentences would be a very welcome side effect.

Crazy how when mental illness goes wrong in young people specifically suicide we play the blame parents or chats card. BUT we never as a society never ever blame ourselves. We don’t treat mental illness with care and people would rather get help from AI, from google, from themselves than doctors. Being a dick about caring about mental illness is not caring about mental illness. As someone who …

Ummmmm, I would say that copyright is a small piece of the 'AI is Terrible' pie. Ranking higher would be the AI hallucinations, encouraging children to take their lives, putting artists out of work just to make billionaires richer, multiplying online enshittification by orders of magnitude due to the amount of worthless content it creates. There's a whole bunch to complain about that doesn't …

As a side note, THIS is what the hype is overlooking. Technically, code is text, and LLMs are really good at generating text. What they’re not good at is genuine problem solving and a lot of other skills that make a good software engineer

I was really impressed by the way Chatgpt was able to pronounce words differently depending on their meaning, felt very much like listening to a real person.

My biggest problem with autonomous vehicles is that there is no way to know if they can see you. A huge part of driving in tight spots is eye contact with other drivers and pedestrians so how will that work? And as a pedestrian you cannot know if they are going to stop for you or not.

the current AI dev wave isn't making superintelligence. it's making a wall street perpetual motion machine of venture investment with LLMs. if anything they'll heavily delay actual superintelligence when the bubble pops and AI becomes an investor no no word.

Mansfield, Georgia Facebook put there Ai data base there crazy huge..There’s a couple that live 400 yards from the Data Base there water pressure is around 25% and brown..

The thing that I find so hard to believe about sentient AI, is that most AI's are trained on human interaction. It's hard to tell when an AI stops being a piece of code that links context together based on a complicated algorithm, and becomes a sentient character with its own beliefs. Most lower end AI's will say things similar to what people would say. I toyed around with Replika for a short tim…

I can feel the change. As a photographer, my client didn't hire me this season and made ai fashion shoot. Loosing business, need to think what to do

This is basically a lesson about not letting generative AI take the talent of real artists.

It's certainly a contentious topic, personally it pisses me off to no end mostly because of the complete lack of empathy from folks propagating the tech. Not to say that some aspects of the tech couldn't be used to help artists with menial tasks like i've heard with the Across the Spiderverse movie, i probably wouldn't have much of a problem otherwise. it's only because all of it was born from su…

heres a tip: 'poison' your artwork with a software. Because if you do. ai will not be able to register the image so your art keeps being safe
