My point is that the rate of improvement is slowing down. Also, its capabilities are often overblown. On the surface it does something amazing, but then flaws are pointed out by those who have a better understanding of the subject matter, then those flaws are excused with fluff words like “hallucinations”.

The assumption here is that the AI will improve. Under the current approach to AI, that might not be the case, since it could be hitting its limitations and this article may be pointing out a symptom of those limitations.

When judges die while democrats have power, they nominate milquetoast compromise judges while republicans just go full far-right crazy. Democrats don’t fight to block the crazy republican judges nor do they even fight to get their own judges in. A great example is when Obama nominated Merrick Garland, an already lame pick, as a “compromise”. The republicans insisted on waiting until the 2016 election concluded and the next president was sworn in and the democrats didn’t fight back at all. Then as some dumb form of symbolism, they make Merrick Garland the Attorney General during Biden’s term and Garland proceeds to not prosecute Trump for four years. That should tell you how great he would’ve been as a supreme court judge.

So even if democrats do get a judge in, it’s a compromised “centrist”. How do you think the court will end up when one side packs in far-right wackos and the other side puts in moderate right-wing losers? Seems pretty clear what the direction would be even if democrats won every election until the end of time.

So, again, practically meaningless distinction. Until democrats are willing to use the same tools they leave available to republicans, the democrats are ineffective.

If it was that easy to undo what biden did, then practically he did nothing.

I’m a doomer who is generally pessimistic about the future, but I don’t spend every moment thinking about a dramatic end to life as we know it. Maybe I’m a fake doomer.

Seems some are confusing the third party estimator with the official page. This is the official page: https://help.steampowered.com/en/accountdata/AccountSpend

It’s even moving along with the ups and downs of the stock market lately. It’s almost as if the same rat bastards got control of both.

It’s still important to point out and put on the public record.

I tried playing it but it’s so incoherent (walls becoming paths, dead enemies randomly coming back to life, health pickups that do nothing, etc) that I’m not even sure this counts as a game. Typically a game has rules so that you can set how you play according to those rules. This is just poorly-generated trash, which I guess fits in with the rest of the hot garbage AI we’ve currently got.

You mean like how democrats love to claim their hands are tied on any issue that benefits the common person? Pointing out that electoralism hasn’t worked isn’t defeatism, it’s recognizing reality.

Oof, right in the soybeans! I could’ve sworn China already switched away from American soybeans during the trade war of trump’s first term.

Laying in bed thinking about the problem, “oh, that must be it!” Jump excitedly out of bed to work on the problem, “welp, that wasn’t it.”

We’ve hit 2024 levels so far. Let’s see if we can go even lower.

I was surprised to see that both left and right joycons have the mouse functionality. Was cool to see it in action with the wheelchair basketball game.

Except back then there were a lot fewer customers, cartridges cost a lot more to manufacture, and there wasn’t countless DLC to make even more money. Also, now there are so many games that the raw supply is practically infinite.

israel targets journalists because israel considers the truth an enemy.

Noooooo!!! You can’t just force us to use a Microsoft account!!! You have to allow us to use the bypasserino!!! Noooooooo!!!

It may not “understand” like a human, but it can synthesize in a way that mimics — and sometimes even surpasses — human creativity.

Calling it a “stochastic parrot” is like calling a jazz musician an “audio repeater” because they’re using notes they’ve heard before. It misses the creativity in the combination — the generative power that lies within the latent space.

It reads like the brainless drivel that corporate drones are forced to churn out, complete with meaningless fluff words. This is why the executives love AI, they read and expect that trash all the time and think it’s suitable for everything.

Executives are perfectly content with what looks good at a cursory glance and don’t care about what’s actually good in practice because their job is to make themselves seem more important than they actually are.

This is yet another one of many examples that affirms the correct answer to “does israel have a right to exist?” is no. No nation has an inherent right to exist, but certainly a nation as horrible as israel should not exist for many reasons, including morally, just like how nazi germany has no right to exist.
