It's one thing to say someone is a terrible parent who ought not to have had children, it's a whole other thing to prevent someone from having children either before or after birth.

So you're just making things up based on the vibe.

[-] null@piefed.au 1 points 9 hours ago

I guess so.

I honestly haven't put any thought into what age they need to be before they can start doing things like that.

I'm just making it up day by day.

I think that's probably an appropriate age to be out by themselves during the day I guess.

Here's an example usage from cambridge dictionary:

Is he a pretentious postmodern dilettante barely concealing his limitations behind mannered overwrought wordplay and the needless over-ornamentation of derivative rock songs and genre pastiches?

God I can't wait to be able to send the kids to get a kebab or pizza.

They're only 2 now. Another 13 years or so and they can go fetch things on their bikes or scooters I guess.

I've had pizza delivered by the guys who work for the store, but never a delivery service.

where does our tax money go?

This is a pretty easy question to answer given that you're talking about a public institution.

The only difficulty is that the answer is complex and requires reading and understanding many sets of financial reports and accompanying minutes et cetera.

a city near me just bought 32 benches at the cost of 70k€ EACH

That's a pretty absurd claim, and simply not how budgets in public institutions work.

Sure there might have been some kind of fuckup so installation of one of 32 benches cost $70k, or any number of other plausible explanations, but large public institutions don't just throw $2.25m EUR at the end of a quarter as a budget stuffing exercise.

How could this ever be a reasonable idea, regardless of this mother's heritage.

Even if they're only applied with good intentions, it's still so obviously wrong.

[-] null@piefed.au 2 points 2 days ago

Yeah right. I guess if you process it so it's just calcium or something rather than living tissue.

I don't know the answer and I don't know anything about how LLMs are tuned but I think the answer is probably partially yes.

My supposition is:

Instead of providing manual answers to specific questions, you modify the bot's approach to answering different types of questions.

For example, if you ask "what color are bananas" the bot answers this by looking for discussions about the color of different fruits and selects the word that seems to be provided most often.

Alternatively, if you ask "what is two plus two", when the bot parses the question it recognises that it's a math question, so instead of looking for text discussions of math, it converts it to an equation and returns the solution.

Previously, I guess bots were answering the "how many r's" question in the text based kind of way, and the fix made the bot interpret it in a more mechanical / mathematic kind of way.

It's a pretty salient demonstration of a bot's inability to reason. They're good at making sentences, but they can only emulate reasoning.

I find this really hard to believe.

I'm sure that unauthorised organ harvesting has occurred in isolated circumstances.

But I'm incredulous that it could happen on an industrial scale.

I didn't realise that this was a thing.

I guess your body just kind of tolerates bone for some reason? Usually for transplants you need meds to suppress your immune system forever.
