It’s true, although the smart companies aren’t laying off workers in the first place, because they’re treating AI as a tool to enhance their productivity rather than a tool to replace them.

But if he didn’t create problems that he could pretend to solve through bluster and rambling incoherence, he’d have to actually work. A Trump never works.

The thing is, if they just pared those claims down a bit, they’d be accurate. Switch from “Copilot can build an entire application for you from scratch while giving you a blowjob” to “Copilot can help developers by automating some repetitive and time-consuming tasks,” and you still have a good thing.

Weird. The cuts apparently include cancellation of several games that were planned and many of them will hit the Xbox division.

I would’ve thought that the increased productivity that Copilot theoretically gives developers would have resulted in the reduced staff still being able to finish those games.

Les lacs d’Ardres sont très beaux. La ville est très conviviale.

Je parle français parce que j’aimerais retourner en France un de ces jours. Si je pratique chaque jour.

France. Specifically, a little town called Ardres. J’ai passé des vacances là-bas. C’était incroyable. Nous avons loué un gîte à la campagne. Je retournerais si je pouvais.

J’adore la France.

Autocomplete on steroids, but suffering dementia.

Huh. So they needed to launch an unprovoked invasion of Ukraine to protect themselves from the United States? Make that make sense. Good luck.

Mods, can we please ban RT as a source?

Yep. My TV has not and never will be on the Internet in any way. I picked it for its screen quality, and the fact that it also has “smart” components never even entered into the decision. Because those smart components will literally never do anything.

What that really means is they’ll be vetted for any indications of disliking Trump.

The thing that’s really got me excited is remembering all the Republicans who claimed Trump was the guy to vote for if you wanted peace and that Democrats were all warmongers.

Fucking mendacious dipshits, the lot of them.

Kind of a weird one, but the beginning theme to the original Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex has stuck with me.

The song is called “Inner Universe,” but the lyrics are Russian.

That’s an odd thing to say. For one thing, there are plenty of physical activities that one could get a reasonable description of from ChatGPT, but if you can’t actually do them or understand the steps, you’re gonna have a bad time.

Example: I’ve never seen any evidence that ChatGPT can properly clean and sterilize beakers in an autoclave for a chemical engineering laboratory, even if it can describe the process. If you turned in homework cribbed from ChatGPT and don’t actually know how to do it, your future lab partners aren’t going to be happy that you passed your course by letting ChatGPT do all the work on paper.

There’s also the issue that ChatGPT is frequently wrong. The whole point here is that these cheaters are getting caught because their papers have all the hallmarks of having been written by a large language model, and don’t show any comprehension of the study material by the student.

And finally, if you’re cheating to get a degree in a field you don’t actually want to know anything about… Why?

Why fight against it? Because some of these students will be going into jobs that are life-or-death levels of importance and won’t know how to do what they’re hired to do.

There’s nothing wrong with using a large language model to check your essay for errors and clumsy phrasing. There’s a lot wrong with trying to make it do your homework for you. If you graduate with a degree indicating you know your field, and you don’t actually know your field, you and everyone you work with are going to have a bad time.

Seems like it’s cheaper and more efficient just to pay people to fuck on camera.

Yup. The linked article has been updated to that effect. Both Democrats, the assassin was impersonating a police officer, and both are in grave condition.

Democrats need to start hiring personal security. We’re at that point.

Oh my God… The best/worst thing about the idea of AI porn is how AI tends to forget anything that isn’t still on the screen. So now I’m imagining the camera zooming in on someone’s jibblies, then zooming out and now it’s someone else’s jibblies, and the background is completely different.
