The suspects were audibly upset that their underground cartel has finally come to light.

To play it on dates, of course!

“So that’s what happened to you.”

How else are we going to get catgirls? 🤷

The employees that work for these places should unionize.

“We brought in the union busters, but they went on strike.” Would be just 👌

Careful: Random cats make love when they find cozy, secret places. This could be an ominous sign of things to come.

This is why open source AI is necessary!

If your language requires an IDE to show you WTF is going on in the code, it’s a bad language.

Given, there’s ways to write poor code in any language, but some are much, much worse than others. Java and JavaScript being the kings of that kind of thing.

Some day, AI assisted coding will become so intelligent that it will look at your average “enterprise” Java code and ask the user, “WTF were they even trying to do here?” Which is the only correct response a lot of the time.

Thank you for posting this comment. I came here to write the exact same thing and now I don’t have to!

👍

Into the volcano you go!

Seriously though, sacrificing the old to save the young is not so unethical. That’s sort of how life is supposed to work.

“Last one in is a rotten old person!” -I’ll shout as I cut the line and jump off in front of you.

“Cannonball!”

There is a story people tell about AI regulation, and it goes like this: the technology is moving too fast, governments can’t keep up, regulators are overwhelmed, and by the time anyone writes a law the thing they’re trying to regulate has already evolved into something else entirely.

No. That’s not the story people are telling about AI regulation. It goes like this:

If we regulate AI, that will give an advantage to AI companies in other countries. They will surpass our AI capabilities and leave us in the technological dust.

There’s a related story:

If we regulate AI, we’re likely to create more problems because Boomers don’t understand technology.

For those wondering how TF a data center that is not even online yet could be using so much water:

• Soil compaction
• Dust suppression

That’s it. For the scale of that project, that’s all it would take to use 30 million gallons.

When they’re done, they also need to flush miles of pipes which could also use a few million gallons but I don’t think they’re at that phase yet.

This amount of water would be used no matter what buildings they were constructing in that amount of space. Meaning: This article is pretty misleading clickbait (because a lot of people hate data centers lately, the headline will generate clicks).

The alternative is to have loads of data centers instead of one big one. That’s more expensive, so they build a single big one.

If you don’t like data centers, it makes sense to build a few really, really big ones like this rather than lots of smaller ones. Because data centers are necessary and important aspects of modern living. They’re not going to just go away. There’s nothing that could replace them.

Everyone wants to access Netflix, YouTube, Prime Video, etc through their TV interface and I just don’t get it. The best experience is when you hook up a PC to your TV… not some TV-centric Android OS or Roku’s thing.

Install Kubuntu on some old PC with a GPU that can handle 4K @60Hz and you’re good to go. KDE and Firefox let you crank up the zoom so everything’s easy to read and it even has HDR support (though I prefer going without it… Old person eyes).

It’s such a vastly superior experience. Not only do you get the usual stuff, you can use a real keyboard to type into that search bar. You can also access all those pirate streaming sites and do normal PC stuff like play games.

Remember kids: It’s not okay to give your developers access to production credentials. However, it’s totally fine to give them to hallucinating GPU addicts.

So their AI prompts are like…

Women: “My boyfriend keeps looking at his phone instead of me!”

Men: “Explain the Bessemer process to me in case I get Isekai’d.”

?

I browse “All” most of the time and the Femcel Memes show up pretty regularly. It’s not like this gif though. It’s more like watching a super interesting science experiment.

“Ah, yes. I see. I see. How interesting!”

My scientific notes so far:

• They crave cuddles. It’s almost like a cuddle-based economy.

I love Canada Dry Zero. It tastes great if it’s really cold.

Zero sugar (uses aspartame)

One look at this picture and I was like, “oh dam!”

The flaws are immeasurable?

“Are they breaking any laws?”

“They’re using our AI to figure out how it works! To make their own AI models better!”

“Yes, but are they breaking any laws?”

“No.”

I get that Big AI is bitching but this isn’t something we (as a country) should be actively trying to stop. To do so would infringe on everyone’s rights to do things like scrape the Internet, download your own posts/history, archive stuff, etc.

It’s not even fraud! They’re paying customers! Do they use 3rd parties to pay? Sure. Is that illegal? No.

There’s no way to stop it anyway. To believe otherwise is wishful thinking. It’s like believing that passing some law or series of laws will somehow stop piracy.
