ChatGPT came up with this as part of an explanation as to how DVD subtitles can be lossy when converted. I get what it means, but I hate it.

this wouldn’t ban fossil, afaict, because i’m basing fossil’s algorithm purely on what the author said, its not customized to the user at all. that seems like a good way to separate “good algorithms” from bad ones

“The New York legislation defines an “addictive feed” as one that recommends, selects or prioritizes media based on information associated with a user or their device.”

Saw #Mistral was trending on Twitter™ and got exciting thinking maybe something new dropped. It was just tons of people misspelling "mistrial" in relation to the latest #Trump junk. :trump_sadge:

it’s a little disingenuous to refer to #LLMs as #opensource because you can really only open source an LLM in roughly the same way you open source a microprocessor — RISCV is open source, the plans for it anyway, but it still costs millions to riff off it and make your own custom version, same with LLMs. that’s not exactly what open source was going for

I have a #bot generating random #pepe memes every few hours in my #chatroom. This is the #future. :pepe:

#pepethefrog #shitpost #shitposting #mistral #stablediffusion #sdxl #ai #llm #largelanguagemodel

Pepe the frog sitting on the bank of a stream eating a sandwich while another, smaller Pepe sits under a big mushroom.
A bunch of Pepes sit around a business conference table doing Business™.
Pepe wears a graduation hat while sitting in a graveyard. Your guess is as good as mine.

There were probably individuals in early hominid development that were like the monkey equivalent to Albert Einstein. Would be cool to talk to one. Or fight it, maybe.

We are working for a ceasefire and hostage deal that would allow the United States and our partners to begin the work to rebuild homes, schools, and hospitals in Gaza to help repair communities destroyed in the chaos of war.

This deal must get done.

Which is your go-to editor? 🤔

#linux

There's Stan Lee in the foreground with a headphone on, peacefully vibing to music, it says on him “Me doing my work with Nano editor peacefully”. In the background, there's Spider-Man jumping around the room, avoiding debris being thrown at him. It says, “Others fighting over Vim and Emacs”.

Embarrassed to say that the only reason I won't try an #Arch based #linux #distro is because I'm so used to #apt I can't bring myself to try another #packagemanager.

Our proposal to end the war in Gaza begins with a complete ceasefire, withdrawal of Israeli forces from all populated areas in Gaza, the release of hostages and hostage remains, the ability for Palestinians to return to Gaza, and a surge of humanitarian assistance.

People freaking out about these little human brain organoids like they're fully fledged beings had better be life-begins-at-conception prolifers or I'm going to lose my mind. In for a penny, in for a pound.

I swear the AI hateboner people love to wave around is gonna stifle actual important conversations about ethics in, well, just about anything even tangentially related.

My, perhaps #controversial, #hottake is that I prefer idly browsing #4chan now to #Reddit. For as crude as it is, 4chan is at least human in a way that Reddit just isn't anymore. 4chan is vulgar and crass but vibrant. Reddit is full of people that appear to just #seethe online all day, regardless of their political leanings. Eternally hurling insults from afar for the approval of fellow defeated seethers and bots.

Anyway, join a #KBin/#MBin/#Lemmy instance. I suggest https://kbin.run/

And just like that, another #AI #foundation #model producer goes down the dark path of adding more and more restrictions until its basically unusable for all purposes except doing free #research and #development for them.

First hit is free, as they say. I guess #Mistral was good while it lasted.

I should go to the library on my birthday and pick stuff out in person. Like a shopping spree.
