@skinnylatte well he has godlike aspirations doesn't he? 😆

@skinnylatte mines named Holly. 😁😁😁

A dude.

@inthehands this kind of thing has never happened in Malaysia before. Not even when we had protests against the government. This truly feels gestapo like. Is there any reason why your local forces can't chase them out?

@skinnylatte how is this even a question?? 😆

@skinnylatte "The least likely to annoy Malaysians" bwahaha you understand us well. But even we annoy each other when it comes to CKT. The "Penang one better" from a Penangite must annoy dafaq out of people all over Malaysia

@skinnylatte @seanbala case in point - I've asked my mother to stop buying me clothes. I'm in 40s ffs. But no, does she listen? 10 years and counting now.

@skinnylatte I will do this for Penang CKT for real

@inthehands I wish geopolitics was that simple 🥲

@gnu2 eh? I was joking? Why so serious geez @seanbala

Come to think of it, I realise I don't really know what Sam Altman meant when he said that "the social contract" has to change because of the advent of AI. What does that even mean? Do I wanna know?

Ngl I hah visions of life under the Weyland-Yutani corporation in the Alien movies 🙃😆

@seanbala and Asians are the most ruthlessly practical kind of people. What service will they choose? The cheaper, more efficient one 😆

@gnu2 something owned by a co like Chatgpt vs Deepseek which is open source

@weiji14 yea it's hard to make something proprietary when it can be easily replicated. Or something like that

@dalias yea the way I use it, there won't be problems with plagiarism. I tell the AI to use my original text. Deepseek does this well. Chatgpt is lousy and keeps injecting its own stuff into it 💩.

If I feel overwhelmed by stuff to do, I often record my thoughts, and then ask it to create a roadmap for me for the week.

Things like that. I rarely use it to generate content - I think LLMs are lousy for that. Tho I admit I do play around with image generation and gave in once in a while. I try not to however lol

@tarheel Likewise. I built a static website for giggles, but until they improve the user friendliness, I will stay in wp because I like to write easily without worrying about the backend. @simon_brooke @pls @dansinker

@dalias Malaysians are very practical people. If a tool exists, we use it. We don't choose our tools by ideology or moral philosophy lol. I find this a very unique way of thinking ;)

Now that Deepseek is around, I'm definitely using that as it is not only free but better for the environment. And seeing that this is possible, I'm confident the Chinese (or anyone in the world, now that it's open source) will find even more efficient ways to run it. After all, Deepseek can be run from your laptops now. So, in the future I expect more localised AI.

@dalias I know a lot of people think this, and as a writer whose work is no doubt scraped by the machine, I feel your anger. However, AI has really helped me accelerate my writing and also helped me plan and learn Mandarin much faster than before.

The problem is people think AI can replace writers/artists. It cannot. And I think the world is already starting to realise that.

However, AI (the LLMs that is) can be great efficiency tools.

Interesting post about #AI bubble from a Chinese perspective. Use Google Chrome to translate the text -

"The future of large models will be the same infrastructure as power plants. Users have no loyalty and will go wherever they can get cheap electricity."

Interesting. So it was US hackers?

Anyway, I'm going to try read the original Chinese report. I like that the Chinese companies banded together to work on this.

Look, it's fine if you hate Deepseek for Chinese reasons, it's your right. But leave it alone so that the rest of the world can benefit from it. You have your ChatGPTs et al, use it and leave Deepseek for us. The more they do this, the more determined we are to use Deepseek and other Chinese AI out of spite lol

Is Perfect Match a bad match for women?
I watch the first two episodes to evaluate. Here's what I think.
