IMHO computers are made for text. As this comment illustrates.😆

Trueché.

I’m right there with you. I already hired a guy to make a WordPress plugin for it and also another guy to make an iPhone app. The former is done, the latter is nearly done. I’m adding a feature (as I am the product designer 😜) to do in-line images – IRC sorely needs that capability.

But yeah, both will be BSD, I think… Tho as I think this thru, I really don’t want to facilitate other end vitrification.🤔

IRC

Google and Facebook – ahem, Meta – are both society-harming monopolies. Microsoft (who is certainly no saint) seems like a tame monopolist circa the late 1990s in comparison.

Talk about out of the frying pan and into the fire.

If you really want to secure your computer, encase that puppy in concrete (after disconnecting it from power),

What a bizarre and terrible idea. I def think Twitter circa 2009 was the pinnacle.

I’ll hand it to Elon Musk, tho – the dude knows how to destroy value. I wonder if he literally sets it on fire.

Agreed 110℅.

I am not.

They’re really good.*

• you just gotta know the material yourself so you can spot errors, and you gotta be very specific and take it one step at a time.

Personally, I think the term “AI” is an extreme misnomer. I am calling ChatGPT “next-token prediction.” This notion that it’s intelligent is absurd. Like, is a dictionary good at words now???

Lol. “I came to break some necks and chew some bubblegum – and I’m all out of bubblegum.”

In fairness, crumby books can hardly be blamed on AI. To quote my mother, “That train’s left the station.”

Like, the AI slop ones will probably have better writing, sadly.

I really don’t have this experience with ChatGPT. Every once in a while, ChatGPT returns an answer that doesn’t seem legitimate, so I ask, “Really?” And then it returns, “No, that is incorrect.” Which… I really hope the robots responsible for eliminating humans are not so hapless. But the stories about AI encouraging kids to kill themselves or mentioning books that don’t exist seem a little made up. And, like, don’t get me wrong: I want to believe ChatGPT listed glue as a good ingredient for making pizza crust thicker… I just require a bit more evidence.
