Oh whoops I said characters I meant words. That’s what I get for posting the second I wake up.
Em dashes per word count is how the expert on linguistics article I read counted it so I’m gonna go ahead and trust the expert. It wouldn’t matter either way. If the LLM is using it like humans then the count would be the same.
I didn’t read the link but the text said “the person’s device doesn’t need to handle” the fan out, which means there’s a server somewhere. If it’s designed to avoid the pitfalls of self hosting then it’s centralized server tech.
So there’s a central failure point…
that AI doesn’t mean inherently awful and bad
it does when it's actively destroying the planet. There's no good use of AI. There's less bad uses since we're now in an era of AI generated cyber attacks, so people are using it to defend. But there's no good use. It's a horrendous technology that is destroying humanity with every use.
It's the same as a nuclear bomb. If the bomb was never used and we just knew how to make it, it wouldn't be that bad. But it was used, it killed hundreds of thousands of people, and no matter what happens in the future it's still horrific technology.
the books the LLM were trained on that used the most em dashes used like 1 every 200-500 characters. LLMs use em dashes at a rate of like 1 every 40-50 characters. It's not even CLOSE to human behavior.
you still probably don't use it nearly as much as LLMs do. It's every third sentence with an LLM, and those sentences will have 2 or 3 em dashes. . The average em dash use when it was at its peak was like 1 every 200-500 words from what I remember. With LLMs it's like 1 every 40 words.
There’s a video showing what Bhutan changed into after TV was introduced into their country. Turns out consumerism is an incredibly powerful and manipulative force. Humans essentially have no defense against it.
Well did he just throw the bullets at them? Turns out words have meanings and can manipulate people to think one thing when they mean another.
This article says two completely different things “collided” and “passed too close”. Both are pretty bad, but one is clearly worse than the other.
It definitely still can happen, especially with Duracells, even while they’re still in a sealed package in the store.
I’ve been waiting for this. Did you use that dude’s project that was posted about last year? Wondering if it will work on the Ioniq 5
To be clear, this isn’t about data centers. It’s about unrestricted AI data centers. The difference between a normal scale data center and a hyperscale AI data center from a water use perspective is 6 million gallons a year vs over 2 billion gallons a year. Like, they’re not even close. We had responsible data centers and life was fine. Now it’s not.
