  • What you’re alluding to is the Turing test and it hasn’t been proven that any LLM would pass it. At this moment, there are people who have failed the inverse Turing test, being able to acerrtain whether what they’re speaking to is a machine or human. The latter can be done and has been done by things less complex than LLMs and isn’t proof of an LLMs capabilities over more rudimentary chatbots.

    You’re also suggesting that it minimises the complexity of its outputs. My determination is that what we’re getting is the limit of what it can achieve. You’d have to prove that any allusion to higher intelligence can’t be attributed to coercion by the user or it’s just hallucinating based on imitating artificial intelligence from media.

    There are elements of the model that are very fascinating like how it organises language into these contextual buckets but this is still a predictive model. Understanding that certain words appear near each other in certain contexts is hardly intelligence, it’s a sophisticated machine learning algorithm.







  • One of the simplest ways to safeguard against breakage is to have your /home on a separate partition. I realised I wouldn’t need to backup and reformat it from the beginning, I just need to wipe the root drive and reinstall again.

    It’s made even easier by writing an installation script. Simply put, you can pipe a list of packages into packstrap and use a little convenience package for pulling a partition scheme out of a file.

    I like to tinker and I’m aware that things will break so I have these tools that let me rebuild the system again in as short a time as possible.




  • The aspect that’s getting lost in all this is that the curator has basically put up a hit list of games for people to review bomb just for associating with a company. The curator has no evidence on the level of involvement SBI had with the game but they don’t recommend the game based on them being involved at all.

    They have taken something small and weaponised it so now it’s harming game devs. No one has any evidence on how SBI were involved with any of the games they’ve listed on their website beyond vague mentions of “narrative” or “character development”.

    The worst part is, I’m not even surprised by this.




  • Wayland isn’t trying to be X12 and since X11 has been around, there haven’t been plans for there to be an X12 either. You want to discourage people from using Wayland but don’t encourage people to contribute to X11. You’re so hellbent on taking Wayland down, rather than further convincing people that X11 is superior and it’s easier to improve.
