I hate google enough to pay 5$/mo for Kagi - it puts a smile on my face everytime I go to search and know that I’m not supporting google

one must repeat the search query >= 10,000 repetitions and then check for convergence

I deleted my FB account (originally opened in 2006) the day I saw zuck on the inauguration stage with the fascists, and honestly that was way too late too haha

There was a court case called the ‘Citizens United v FEC’ that ended up ruling in favor of corporations; It said corporations and organizations and unions can ‘donate’ as much money as they want to political candidates i.e. legalized bribery.

I was just daydreaming about how the future of ‘AI assisted web search’ might quickly destroy our grip on reality. For instance if my MAGA mother-in-law says covid vaccines contain magnetizing microchips, and I say no they dont, then she googles ‘covid vaccine magnetizing microchip’, then the ‘AI assist’ automatically generates a video/article for ‘covid vaccine magnetizing microchip’ 🤷 . I realize this is basically happening already, but this is terrifying and I’m still trying to wrap my head around how we can collectively hold on to reality beyond what we can confirm with our own five (or however many) senses.

I use LLM’s to help with math/science/coding, and the thing it screws up the most seems to be simple math (typically units/conversion issues) so I would be weary about gleaning financial advice from a chatbot.

ISMRM? edit : read your username and immediately knew the answer haha

i heard there’'s this just *horrible * site called sci hub that allows you to put in links from paywalled scientific articles and gives you access to read them and it works for pretty much every scientific paper out there…

wait are insects not considered ‘sentient’ ?

it does look like spam - but it is interesting! Especially the linked article under the ‘native ai-memory’ tab (https://arxiv.org/abs/2406.18312). This concept of short-term and long-term USEFUL memory for LLMs is super interesting. I’d definitely be apprehensive about using a third party to do something like this though. This is something where you want to self host every aspect of the tool.

most people have absolutely no idea how to ‘run it through an ai voice program’ … yet

your local public library (if in US) should offer free language courses online - all you need is a library card

I agree on both counts - honestly, a lot of companies are probably just posting job openings (that will purposefully remain vacant) with titles like AI Prompt Engineer and SEO Specialist to help boost shareholder confidence. I think I’m just fighting against the idea that LLMs should be used like a search engine - i know you didnt suggest that but I’ve been reading a lot recently about ‘ChatGPT lies!’ when in reality people are wrongly using a pattern recognition system like its a search engine.

screw NewYorkLife, but LLM’s are definitely not bullshit technology. Some amount of skill in so-called ‘prompt-engineering’ makes a huge difference in using LLMs as the tool that they are. I think the big mistake people are making is using it like a search engine. I use it all the time (in a scientific field) but never in a capacity where it can ‘lie’ to me. It’s a very effective ‘assistant’ in both [simple] coding tasks and data analysis/management.

exactly this - SEO (search engine optimization) is huge, just like “prompt engineering” is extremely valuable - and its quite different from SEO. I wouldnt think either is a full-time position but, but learning to effectively prompt and use LLM’s is definitely a skill.

No link to a source in the article. I searched for it and found a CNBC article that posts a link to the “report” from the South Korean Data Protection Authority, but its a bad link. I dont read Korean so its difficult to search any further, but I found no evidence that the south korean authority made this claim.

heat to 80K…oh wait

Through the Voyager phone app I sometimes use the ‘random community’ search option to make Lemmy like StumbleUpon. I dont see this random option through desktop though…maybe its a Voyager thing

Same! It is definitively unconstitutional and the us gov just pushed it through anyway (with even supreme court backing it up?!) Shit is crazy, and yet I see a lot of ‘no big loss’ type comments on it.
