  • Yeah, you’re right, but wielding this power effectively requires thinking beyond the current fiscal quarter.

    Also, small nit (because the essence of what you’re saying is absolutely correct), but…ain’t nobody trying to rip off Teslas. They’re absolute garbage, literal dumpster in the case of the cybertruck. Chinese EVs on the market today are already cheaper and better.

    That said, from Elon’s perspective I’m pretty sure this is more about training LLMs on presently copy-written material, unhindered by IP protections.






  • Illegitimate wars fought for oil in Iraq and Afghanistan, with civilian casualties in the 100s of thousands. Let Russia take Crimea, arguably the initial precursor to today’s war in Ukraine, even though we promised them protection in exchange for giving up their nukes. Extra-judicial killing of American citizen via drone strike. He was peak lib and gave corpos everything they wanted and more, so of course the corpo media won’t point any of this out. Doesn’t change the fact that he committed grave crimes against humanity and our own citizens.

    Would I rather have him back today instead of the orange dotard? Yeah. Doesn’t mean he was a good guy though, or good for Americans in general.




  • I would care if someone was rude or unqualified on an issue

    Would you? Your tone reads as fairly rude in this post, and your qualifications seem quite lacking if you don’t even comprehend the dire environmental impact and obvious drawbacks of the vast majority of contemporary AI big compute. For that matter, most llm outputs are not deterministic, especially with certain configurations eg high temperature, etc, so I don’t even follow your contrived example here. Consider that Cyanobacteria are unaware of their environmental impact - humans are not so ignorant, unless they choose to be.


  • Girl, get yourself a nice pair of stomping boots and go to town!

    Beyond that, know the law and know your rights. They can make noises, it sucks that you can hear them but maybe figure out a new apartment to work towards and move again once you save up if you have to. If there’s a noise ordinance in your town you can record them violating it during quiet hours if that happens. They can’t threaten you physically or verbally, if that happens tell the cops and then inform management.
