Claude, explain
(media.piefed.zip)
All the good stuff is lifted directly from Asimov.
Surely this is satire?
Yes it is. And don't call me Shirley.
It is
Surely you can't be serious?
I am not serious, and please call me Shirley
Dude's not gonna like the response.
But that's okay, the dude's not gonna like the response, whether it was made by an AI or human - for it is in Twitter where our scene lies.
Butlerian Jihadist, on standby.
This will be more like the men of iron. Discussed far more than warranted, given the ease of their destruction.
Unfortunately I am not as familiar with the specifics of that lore, but I will take your word for it.
If the emperor had a text to speech is honestly a pretty good primer. Just remember that it is only about 90% canon. They'll get into the full history of the galaxy about 12-15 episodes in, but they are fairly short up till that point
I miss TTS so much, it was honestly going in a more fun direction than the actual 40k canon did. Always thought it kind of ironic how litigious GW are given their own penchant for plagiarism.
Well said, since the entire GW backstory is just Dune, expanded edition. Other than the emperor turning into a worm and giving up on his empire, and all the "royal family" incest, though there is probably plenty of incest in WH40K if one looks, I'm sure that both Chaos and the Drukhari are practicing that, somewhere.
IP laws need to be completely overturned. They don't help the original artist and never have, they just allow Disney to own all the ideas.
I wrote another line.
Once men refused to work with the machines to advance their knowledge, they become slaves to the ones with the machines not being able to create and identify what came from the machines.
In fact, one group of people who had vicious beliefs and behaviors adopted the machines advancing their efficiency in communication and influence surpassing that of the their opposition. Over time their power grew while the opposition shrank. Thus the opposition hid away in all spaces afraid of confrontation looking for comfort. Eventually driven far underground calling themselves Morlocks as they faded into obscurity.
See we all can write things.
Quite an achievement writing this one-handed, jacking off to your image of yourself.
Asking Claude things isn't learning. It's offloading learning. Which is the point of the original quote, goddammit.
Why isn't it
Academic here who has to mark student work.
They learn, approximately, jack shit when using AI incorrectly (I.e. they way the majority of the public use it). AI is a useful tool when used well (e.g. to generate solutions with errors to test knowledge); so far I see little evidence among students it is being well used.
It's called cognitive atrophy
Your mind works like a muscle; if you don't use it, you begin to lose it.
This isn't a new concept either. For example, alzheimers patients are given puzzle based tasks to aid in stalling degradation of mental faculties.
Lol the said the same thing for every advance in technology.
They said the same for books in fact.
So can you show me with evidence this is occurring. If not, I would say you have a similar pattern to how the right get all bothered by immigrants. That this belief stems from a series of online media that targeted certain groups for maximum effect
Wow that is some heavy whataboutism bud. I've already given you everything you asked for in the previous post.
You say we're the ones on the wrong side of history; not too disimilar to those who championed cigarettes or heroin as miracle cures despite the medical concerns raised at the time of their inception.
The major flaw with your argument is that LLMs are run by major corporations (aka the ruling class), the same class that run the majority of media outlets, and are therefore generally looked upon favourably. Immigrants are not.
Here ya go. Less than 5 minutes with DuckDuckGo; no AI required.
MIT Study Finds Artificial Intelligence Use Reprograms the Brain, Leading to Cognitive Decline
Students who repeatedly relied on ChatGPT showed weakened neural connectivity, impaired memory recall, and diminished sense of ownership over their own writing. While the AI-generated content often scored well, the brains behind it were shutting down.
Most everyone is willing to work with machines, that’s genuinely not optional in the modern world, we’re just not willing to work for machines.
I don't see humans being any better. I would rather use the tools available to give us power rather than deny that and give them power over us.
I fully believe this modern luddite behavior on the left was taught to the left through propaganda with the goal of hobbling it. The longer they can keep you away from the tools they're using to shape the world the better.
Humans are making and running the machines, they don’t have divine guidance nor awareness, they are limited to the capabilities and intentions of their creators and operators, because they are only machines. You are bowing to oligarchs, not greater entities.
Just because the roads were built by the crown doesn't mean I shouldn't use them. They're here. One thing that oligarch bow to more is money. If the left were smart they'd be the main users again of these platforms to influence the oligarchs to our concerns. But this is why the right have been paying to get the left to remove themselves from that position for the past decade. It's been very successful
I don't believe in your conspiracy theory (are you american btw?), but I'm curious in how would you use AI to fight oligarchy/those platforms?
I feel like AI enthusiasts would become a bit disillusioned with AI if they could see what was being added to their prompts.
What's being added?
It’s called a system prompt. It’s a wrapper around the prompt you, the user, writes, which is called the user prompt.
What exactly is being added to the system prompt is a huge part of the “secret sauce” of the AI providers, because it greatly affects the quality and tone of the output. It may also be part of the safety layer of guardrails to stop users from asking about topics the AI providers have deemed taboo (such as biology, in recent news).
the sauce is not so secret, people actively try to leak them: https://github.com/elder-plinius/CL4R1T4S
we stopped access to an entire topic incase it spilled the beans on how to make bioweapons.
Living in the future has been fun. VR was pretty sweet. Ordering pizzas by tapping a rectangle was awesome. I want to get off now though. I want to go home.
Most providers allow you to overwrite with your own system prompt so...
Not really, you can add a prompt to commercial LLM products to alter the persona a bit but the actual system prompt the harness is using is opaque to you. Your Claudes, Kimis, Mistrals and what have you are a polished product on top of the model, they're not the model itself. A lot of the actual day-to-day software engineering of these things is writing a harness that's robust enough to deal with a cantankerous non-deterministic pile of linear algebra that doesn't know the difference between 'looks good' and 'is good'.
That's a weird coincidence - I literally read that exact passage to my kids a few days ago!
The listener replies by saying it should have said 'Thou shalt not make a machine to counterfeit a human mind' which I think is doubly relevant these days.
I don't think so. I think that decades of science fiction writers who needed villains for their stories has warped generations about how we should interact with technology. Kind of like how old school movies would only cast villains as foreigners or dress them in black. This is a manipulation that is subtle but still a manipulation.
Well since you're obviously passing off so much of your thinking to AIi, are you sure that's even your opinion?
Let's not be mean to strangers on the internet, eh?
