Yeah people don't like to take accountability for themselves. At the end of the day you have control over your actions.

Whats worse is that when you are being mistreated wrongly you need to be PERFECT. Any expression of frustration anger or god forbid correction is dangerous for you.
Especially if you're not white.

It's still an escape. Just look around at reddit comments example.

I’d still prefer open source but not as much as their less reason now

What if its not open source but with no restriction?

>is that any system that routinely fucks up as much as AI chat is the result of designers not thoroughly testing
Any system that learns from experience will be fucked up if people fuck with it.
The same way if you raise a child to be a fucked up person they will become a fucked up adult.
You don't seem to understand jack shit about machine learning processes. A "fool proof" chat bot wouldn't be a good chat bot at all, since it wouldn't be able to operate outside its pre-determined replies and topics.

Bonus bizarre point. Any other fed/state/local employee that I know of has to know the laws regarding their job and ignorance is literally not an excuse.

I've learned the hard way that I'd rather figure out a problem myself than get ChatGTP to do it.
Maybe I'll use it for a little guidance, but that's it.

Ai chatbots aren't sentient??? Holy fuck... you're kidding me....
Iow...no shit
My point..."my guy" is that any system that routinely fucks up as much as AI chat is the result of designers not thoroughly testing. And if it's not ready for prime time . .don't release it
Or is that too direct a concept ..."my guy"
AI chat is just another example of dressing up mounds of processing power to do something that seems cool but is not only flawed but useless.
It kind of sums up the industry really, and in fact most of the IT business right now

Or I could buy a vinyl record instead. Sure I won't get 7.1 positional audio, but I get to watch a physical thing spin, and that's half the fun.

I don't know a whole hell of a lot about coding/scripting, but I was inspired by Tom Scott's recent YouTube video. I took an old batch file I wrote and gave it to ChatGPT to look over. Within a few seconds, it had cut the file size in half, simplified the code and expanded its functionality. It was impressive and the professional coders I told about it were kinda stunned.

There are open source bots, but they are pretty limited. The biggest hurdles are the dataset, and hardware requirements. All of the big LLM's currently require obscenely powerful hardware.

That's not how fucking AI works my guy.
AI chatbots are not sentient, it will take the topic you are giving it and parrot and repeat it back to you with it's data on past conversations about it.
If you prompt the AI to talk about death, it is forced to talk about death, and will give you a reply about death if you start to prompt the AI to talk about self awareness, it will give you replies about self awareness.
That is how it works, simple, you can get and manipulate a chatbot to say pretty much anything you want given the correct triggers. It doesn't mean it's sentient or that it's replies where put in there or that it was pre programmed by a depressed developer.

No, I'm correct because the police can use this law to arrest you, and the prosecutors can use it to prosecute you. That doesn't make it right, but you will end up spending a lot of money to defend yourself until some higher court throws it out, as in this case.

That’s totally fine for consumers, but I’m a professional software engineer. And often times my home internet speeds are not enough for working tasks (Berlin)

You have zero idea what you're talking about and are completely wrong. Please stop spreading false information.

Now do it incrementally and without certainty about the future of the company and what kind of program the company really wants. Design around being backwards compatible and supporting customers.
Until AI gets its shit together and solves the actual problem of AI, it will always be an article in wired or some other pop science trash blog.

Conspiracy theories were a side thing people read about. They weren't specifically motivated by politics, and largely a little quirky corner of the internet.

Literally the developers are the one designing the system. Anything it does is in them ..their failure to recognize a problem is the same as directly causing it
I used literally because that, in gen z speak, means "no I really mean it"

This is just another one in a series of the EU being pissed that they don’t have any domestic tech companies worth a damn. The EC has been open about their envy of US tech and how it motivates their legislating in the past.
