Over-budget on the user side, sure. Gimme the numbers on the vendor side though. They’ve gotta be bleeding money at an eye-watering rate. Can we please end the subsidies so that we can all agree on the reality that this is not a sustainable practice?

Deterministic: ✅ ❌

Oh god nix output

No, forward slash. No, the — It’s the one that goes up and to the right. No you do have one, trust me, just keep look — No, you can’t just use the “other slash”, and it’s called “backslash”. … Well because different things mean different things, Phil. sigh Just, it’s the one you think of when you write a fraction. No that’s a hyphen. It’s angled, remember? Why did you type 5? Oh, the percent sign. No I see why that — Well, because you didn’t use the shift key.

“Good point. Claude, go understand this code for me!”

Culture is our most important invention as a species. So important, in fact, that we’ve evolved to make it essential to our individual health and collective capacity to function. To deny someone access to interact with culture on the basis of their lack of wealth is cruel and anti-human.

Likewise, developing something like an LLM, which spews thoughtless pollution into the only shared infosphere we have, and displaces individuals’ ability to connect to each other to develop culture… that is an existential threat to the human race and should be opposed vehemently.

Who can even say? The developer said he’s never seen the code.

Technically, nowhere. Every US dollar is spent into existence and taxed out of existence.

I’m confused where copyright comes into this.

We could certainly have a society that doesn’t allow private ownership of ideas but still protects accurate attribution and faithful replication of ideas.

It’s kinda funny. For a while, it looked like the digital age had solved those problems for good.

At the time of the Statute of Anne, Western (Anglo) society was suffering from epistemic chaos caused by bootleg printers producing sloppy incomplete reproductions and obscuring the original author’s message and identity.

But computers are good at making exact copies and preserving sources.

Or at least they were…

Anyway, we should be able to legislate prosocial norms without having to sneak them in through financial instruments. To think otherwise is to uncritically accept the neoliberal frame.

The command opened the alternate buffer.

Perpetual loop of “bounty encourages bad reports”, “canceled bounty”, “bug reports improve”, “bounty comes back”, “bounty encourages bad reports”…

Tale as old as time.

Progressive voters view progressive politicians as unreliable because they regularly abandon principles in favor of victory.

Well… There are problems with AI that will persist regardless of whether it’s deployed within an economic class system. But yes, the most urgent problems are due to capitalism.
