It’s not dependent on constant software updates.

I bet every modern fighter jet is. “Dependent” might not be the best word, but if you can make your existing jet better just by optimizing the software, then of course they should.

It’s probably true to say that F-35 is objectively better than a Gripen, but it’s way more expensive too. More Gripens might actually be better than fewer F-35s. My understanding is they’re more focused on electronic warfare.

Even broke the warranty seal over the USB port.

Firstly, it’s not just about the price of the drones being shot down - it’s also about the price of whatever they were going to hit if you didn’t stop them.

And secondly, that’s entirely beside the point anyway. The Dutch need stealth fighters just as much as anyone else would.

Either you’re talking confidently about something you couldn’t possibly know, or you’re risking the rest of your life in prison for leaking top-secret military info. Which is it?

It was Dutch F-35s that shot down the Russian drones over Poland. It could’ve just as well been a Russian fighter jet they scrambled to intercept.

Yeah, they do need a stealth jet. Stealth is what lets you fire your missiles before the enemy even knows you’re there.

General intelligence refers to human level intelligence where it’s not only limited to one task like playing chess or generating language. General intelligence exists - just not artificial one.

I’ve yet to figure out a good way to carry a bit driver with me but if I had one I’d use it a ton. Just like I do flashlight now.

Radiator bleed-screw tool on my keyring.

I’m a plumber by training.

Just create it, and if there’s demand, people will show up. There are a few communities meant for advertising new ones, but simply posting there yourself will also make it appear in the “All” feed for people browsing that.

There’s only so much you can do to grow it. Lemmy is still a pretty small platform with a limited audience, and I’m getting the sense that cage fighting isn’t exactly close to most people’s hearts around here.

Saying that it’s good at one thing and bad at others.

But that’s exactly the difference between narrow AI and a generally intelligent one. A narrow AI can be “superhuman” at one specific task - like generating natural-sounding language - but that doesn’t automatically carry over to other tasks.

People give LLMs endless shit for getting things wrong, but they should actually get credit for how often they get it right too. That’s a pure side effect of their training - not something they were ever designed to do.

It’s like cruise control that’s also kinda decent at driving in general. You might be okay letting it take the wheel as long as you keep supervising - but never forget it’s still just cruise control, not a full autopilot.

It’s a Large Language Model designed to generate natural-sounding language based on statistical probabilities and patterns - not knowledge or understanding. It doesn’t “lie” and it doesn’t have the capability to explain itself. It just talks.

That speech being coherent is by design; the accuracy of the content is not.

This isn’t the model failing. It’s just being used for something it was never intended for.

I love this.

I too hear all the sounds much more clearly now. Some of them sound quite expensive.

One day around 7 years ago I turned off the radio in my truck and I never turned it back on. I just sit in silence and I honestly prefer it that way.

Edit: to elaborate a little: I consider it almost like a meditative practice. I drive virtually every day, so this way I can quite easily force what I consider to be a healthy near-daily habit.

I do the same thing with my phone whenever I’m queuing.

I was in a relationship from 18 to 34. Now, for the first time in my entire adult life, I’m single instead of jumping straight into the next one.

No doubt there are things I miss about being in a relationship - and I still probably lean toward that being the ideal setup - but relationships have downsides too, just like being single has upsides.

I’m not sure what the final tally of that equation looks like, but every now and then I catch myself wondering whether I even need to be in a relationship at all. I spent most of my childhood practicing playing alone, and I got pretty damn good at it.

What do you even do on Instagram for 16 hours?

You couldn’t really warn future civilizations about the dangers of a true Artificial General Intelligence - because there probably wouldn’t be any future civilizations.

And even that assumes the problem magically solves itself once humans disappear, which it wouldn’t. A real AGI would be perfectly capable of continuing to exist without us around.

Can we play Age of Empires after this?

I’ll start paying for YT before I ever start watching ads. I won’t as long as I don’t have to, but the second they finally figure this out, I’m subscribing.

It’s well worth the money considering how much I use it and for how long I’ve used it for free. It’s honestly one of the few streaming services actually worth paying for.

Apparently there is a way around it as I’ve been watching YouTube all day and haven’t encountered a single ad.
