  • Hear me out... The colonization of what is now the US was bad and I would absolutely say the same thing about the US and Russia has been ethnically clensing for far longer than Putin has been alive.

  • Specifically LLMs fail at multiple of the axioms that underpin the "theory" of signularity

    • Fail - Recursive self-improvement is possible - LLMs aren't being coded, beyond specific fields like image generation and programming, it's not really clear how an LLM would improve itself in a general sense.
    • Fail? - Moore's Law (or its generalization) - it seems like we are hitting the limits of fitting more chips into a processor and LLMs are not going to solve that
    • Fail - Human cognition is near the threshold for AI being able to self-improve - they really seem to be showing something AI researchers have known for a while - people are dumb and anthropomorphize anything the moment it can pretend to talk to you
    • Fail - Greater intelligence reliably translates into greater real-world capability - I think tech CEOs are doing a great job of demonstrating that this isn't true - so the idea that a supersmart general AI would run the world rather than be stuck generating deep fake porn of children isn't necessarily true.
    • Fail? - There is no fundamental ceiling on intelligence - it seems like each itteration of LLMs is returning a smaller improvement than the last, which to my simple meat bag brain implies there is a ceiling on the intelligence of LLMs - I don't know if this points to some fundamental limit of intelligence but at least with LLMs it seems like they have an asymptotic limit.

  • For thing a new virus emerged just in time for a Bolsonaro to catch it.

  • Reddit Starts Blocking Mobile Website, Pushing Users to App Instead

  • When I search for something I often get suggestions for "search term" reddit.

    Google have chosen to send people to reddit If reddit make those results unusable that a big fuck up.

    Jump

  • Not just of reddit but also for some reason Google (at least for me) often recommends

    <search term>

    reddit and ranks reddit posts quite highly, so this enshitifies google too.

    Google's demise due to socialmedia walled gardens was kind of understandable, but their decision to lean into Reddit and make themselves extra vulnerable to the whims of a corporation they don't own, is entirely in them.

  • Yeah they did that a while ago, I think they even block temp emails (unsuccessfully)

  • Does it even support tabs yet?

    Maybe I'm old but I browse link aggregators by opening a bunch of tabs then going through them, I'd your app doesn't support tabbed browsing what's even the point?

  • better KDE touchscreen usability?

    Jump

  • What do you mean by lacking?

    I think QML apps are meant to be designed to work on touchscreens but whole pre-QML apps prioritize a mouse+keyboard interface I'd be curious as to how that sucks for touchscreens?

  • Apple’s AirPods with cameras for AI are apparently close to production

    Jump

  • This AI push is stagnating innovation.

    I think it's the other way around, corporate consolidation (including capturing our governments and getting all research funding) killed innovation a while ago and now AI is just the latest non-idea that is being used to cover up that none of the corporations have any new ideas. Even Apple's latest good idea, ARM laptops, was basically done by cheap Linux nettops a decade ago.
