@ProPublica Please call it SNAP, not "food stamps" (which is used by many people in a derogatory fashion).

@hachyderm Thanks for your thoughtful approach.

To answer the question (I will add to Github as well)—the one easiest thing to do is very generously block people, even when you only suspect they're inauthentic or posting in bad faith.

Social media doesn't have stringent requirements about "the truth" like a court of law. It's perfectly alright and even a good thing if you remove something that gives "bad vibes" from your life. No one has any innate right to interact with you.

@CosmicCactus To make LLMs execute commands you actually have to add specific code to allow it to do that.

@the_wub That's not what LLMs do or how they work.

Having all this rainbow-animated RGB lighting in the computer makes me feel more manly btw

It's wild that this PC is now 6 years old, honestly plays even latest stuff pretty well. 🤷

Well ripped out the broken COU cooler in my gaming PC and replaced it with a new AIO and PC works great again (or whatever counts as "great" wrt to Windows 11).

I haven't fully restored the RGB barf inside, working on it; meanwhile enjoy a picture of Eero a few years ago.

@peter How dares he. Such a fucking prick.

@ArtHarg@mastodon.nl @the_wub

No, it cannot "kill -9" it's own process.

The ability to do some actions is literally hard-coded and literally special—it has nothing to do with the LLM.

@hazelweakly @mipsytipsy I'm with Kathy Sierra, basically "good software helps users kick ass"

They say that virtue is its own reward. What they don't tell you is that that's because it's rare that you get any other reward for being virtuous, and much of the time you even get punished for it instead. Still, being able to look at yourself in the mirror is worth some effort.

@Lawgren correct, LLMs literally don’t know anything

@tknarr LLMs can’t modify their models nor are they actually executable code

@the_wub The question doesn’t make sense, it would be like asking the Pythagorean Theorem to cook dinner

@foone I mean just take VGA and add sprite capability. Maybe with swappable daughter cards 😅

@joshsusser I think the vast majority of people do not understand that to be happy you have to be a good and kind person.

The underlying psychology is that we're sponges for other people's feelings and seeing someone else who is happy also makes yourself happy—therefore it's in your own self-interest to try to make other people as happy as possible.

LLMs are basically a "Conversation Simulator" and just as useless as similar games like "Power Washing Simulator" or "Goat Simulator", only less fun

@peteriskrisjanis @renatoram it’s literally their job to investigate if claims are plausible

“Where we are going we won’t need roads”
