Check out my digital garden: The Missing Premise.
I actually like the new Notepad
At the level of the Pulitzer prize finalists, I think the use of AI is completely warranted and should be encouraged. To get anywhere near that level in the first place, you need to do be able to craft good writing on your own. That they use AI to help that process doesn’t bother me one bit.
You know what’s weird? Conservatives generally think people are lazy and would rather do nothing at all than be productive. But their efforts to make policies based on that assumptions, which are invariably harmful and evil, really encourage me to do everything to oppose them locally.
Putting up those dishes is going to be exhausting!
Or am I?
My wife does this, and I’m just like, “…wtf is your problem?”
That’s why AI exacerbates inequality between more and less experienced workers. More experienced workers will know what garbage to look out for and its manifestations in poorly cleaned data sets. Newer workers will just have to trust the AI did it.
I absolutely agree with you. That is the internet platform business model after all.
Still though, OpenAI and Google, I think, have a legitimate argument that LLMs without limitation may be socially harmful.
That doesn’t mean a $20 subscription is the one and only means of addressing that problem though.
In other words, I think we can take OpenAI and Google at face value without also saying their business model is the best way to solve the problem.
Companies like OpenAI and Google believe that this technology is so powerful, they can release it to the public only in the form of an online chatbot after spending months applying digital guardrails that prevent it from spewing disinformation, hate speech and other toxic material.
Google Bard is currently free to use for now, so the danger is not locking up tech behind a subscription (though Google will 100% do that eventually).
I miss the physical keyboard of my first phone. It was so cool! I filled flipped out open and turned out horizontal to thumb type.
It was really hard moving to a virtual keyboard. Swype helps but it also make a ton of mistakes too.
The jury: sounds like magic to me! Sounds good!
Stereotypically bad science reporting
My 1060-3gb is hanging on by a thread lol.
Yeah, probably, since it’s not being used commercially.
I think, like Obsidian, it stores them as markdown files.
Then Logseq. It’s an outliner (each line can be it’s own…thing…), but it’s open source and a direct competitor of Obsidian. In fact, I was ambivalent between the two when I first started with online note-taking.
This is obviously a bad idea. CMV
I am annoyed af. My pc does have TPM but it’s a bitch to set up and I’m not fighting that fight again. And fuck windows 11 on my current computer
That’s still more wealth spread than now
