S…squirts?

I’ve used it extensively, and yes it can have inconsistent output but so can humans, useful doesn’t imply perfect imo

The image is boobs, that happen to look like spiderman, and the bad news is that you’re a nerd or something idk

For programming we are well into useful territory, but definitely not for other walks of life

So this feels like a genuine video, with ai generated videos getting better and better I really wonder how this kind of video will be received in the future? Skepticism? No matter how real a video is it can’t be trusted to represent reality, how do we verify the veracity of a video? Geotagging and weather validation? Spacial videos? Multiple camera angles? I wonder if a post truth society simply won’t trust anything

Apparently irregular means undocumented?

I genuinely don’t understand the obsession with immigrants, why has it reached a new fever pitch? Who is benefiting from all of the isolationism and hate?

Ah another closet republican, nice

Yes it’s the official store, it’s real, and he has been quite explicit about running for a third term.

You mentioned being unable to afford diagnosis, so mental healthcare is likely out of the question. This sort of thing is probably better handled by professionals but I’ll offer some perspective regardless.

I’m not neurodivergent, though it’s likely that everyone is a little “on the spectrum” because that’s kinda how spectrums work. Because our brains may be wired slightly differently I’m not sure my thoughts will be as valid or valuable to your situation.

It’s my opinion that there is no fundamental “self”, and rather believe your self image is merely a reflection of all of your prior actions. This generally means that masking is not really a fundamental change in behavior from your “true self” but is rather a step in actually changing what you perceive yourself as.

Fake it til you make it is a terrible saying, but it does apply here.

I act differently with every person I interact with, I adapt to who they are and their values, this adaptation is not what I would consider masking though perhaps you would. Due to this simple system of adaptation most of my peers would consider me well liked and successful.

There are some fundamental rules that I won’t adapt into, moral boundaries that I don’t cross, but as long as it’s benign I have no problem being a sports fan with some crowds, a strong rights activist among liberal audiences, a sweet person to my grandparents. All of these are parts of who I am but the part of me that gets shown to each person isn’t necessarily the whole picture.

It is important to be comfortable with your own actions, if it feels fake and disingenuous to act differently around different people then why force it? Life is about enjoying who you are, where you are, and what you’re doing. Learn to experience and accept your current situation and stuff like this won’t matter.

Idk mate v8’s code is actually pretty damn solid, not sure about chrome itself but if the engine is any indication it’s probably rock solid

Not sure if I’m missing the follow up joke, but it looks like maybe you’re missing the original joke. There was an episode of the next generation where picard was being brainwashed to think the way his captors wanted him to, the demonstration of his resilience was truthfully saying there are four lights when he was being coerced into falsely saying there were five.

Likely a prefrontal cortex, the administrative center of the brain and generally host to human consciousness. As well as a dedicated memory system with learning plasticity.

Humans have systems that mirror llms but llms are missing a few key components to be precise replicas of human brains, mostly because it’s computationally expensive to consider and the goal is different.

Some specific things the brain has that llms don’t directly account for are different neurochemicals (favoring a single floating value per neuron), synaptogenesis, neurogenesis, synapse fire travel duration and myelin, neural pruning, potassium and sodium channels, downstream effects, etc. We use math and gradient descent to somewhat mirror the brain’s hebbian learning but do not perform precisely the same operations using the same systems.

In my opinion having a dedicated module for consciousness would bridge the gap, possibly while accounting for some of the missing characteristics. Consciousness is not an indescribable mystery, we have performed tons of experiments and received a whole lot of information on the topic.

As it stands llms are largely reasonable approximations of the language center of the brain but little more. It may honestly not take much to get what we consider consciousness humming in a system that includes an llm as a component.

How do you think god comes into the equation? What do you think about split brain syndrome in which people demonstrate having multiple consciousnesses? If consciousness is based on a metaphysical property why can it be altered with chemicals and drugs? What do you think happens during a lobotomy?

I get that evidence based thinking is generally not compatible with religious postulates, but just throwing up your hands and saying consciousness comes from the gods is an incredibly weak position to hold.

Track autistic people and ignore measles, amazing

You mean you aren’t into wazaaaaaap, piglatin, roflmao, the R word, cool beans, home skillet, etc?

It is funny how the wheel of slang makes the prior generation uncomfortable for some reason. Time waits for no one.

Neovim is basically just vim with easier extension creation. It’s pretty good for a terminal editor. If you don’t already like vim you may not really enjoy nvim, it’s more of a lifestyle than a text editor.

Not sure what different advice you’re looking for here, you’ve asked a couple times about the same situation and the advice has been fine.

Are you looking for some miracle that will solve this problem? There isn’t one.

You need to talk to your friend. You have sex with him frankly he is more than your friend. Despite you claiming no romantic feelings you have intimate relations and that fundamentally changes a friendship into something different.

You can’t become best friends like you used to again, relationships don’t work like that, time is a one way street and going back is not allowed. You can move forward with a new and different relationship.

Right now you are choosing money over friendship, that may be acceptable or unacceptable morally to you but it is reality.

Consciousness is an emergent property, generally self awareness and singularity are key defining features.

There is no secret sauce to llms that would make them any more conscious than Wikipedia.

Nintendo continues to demonstrate why my personal boycott continues. What a shitty company.

How dare you think Google would listen to its users and not the advertisers. Fr though I’m not sure, manifest v3 does use a sandboxing feature but it’s unclear at first glance if they are directly related
