  • “conditional on the context and the model’s learned parameters.” you seem to be under the wrong impression that “random dice roll” == “random dice roll from a uniform distribution”. I didn’t say that. If it outputs a probability distribution, which it does, then you sample it randomly according to that distribution, not a uniform one.

    As for your last paragraph: I wasn’t, I didn’t do that, and if that’s all the system can do then people should stop claiming it is even remotely intelligent. Whatever the excuses, the systems aren’t (and won’t be getting) there. If you’re trying to get me to empathize with a couple of matrices, then you’re not going to succeed.

    I don’t care if you get offended because someone else doesn’t like your line of work. I think what you do is actively harmful to humanity. I also dislike weapons manufacturers, how they feel about it is irrelevant. You’re no different















  • “these new cars have a teeny tiny fuel tank with a tiny range! They used to have a bigger tank!”

    “Drive an old car”

    In this case the new car is objectively inferior, and I can’t buy a new old car anymore.

    When something complains about very real problems due to missing functionality, the proper answer isn’t “fuck you, use the old stuff, or stop yearning for the functionality that te intentionally crippled”


  • I am not referring to it being a drop-in replacement. I’m referring to the fact that there are multiple supposedly-interoperable-but-not-really non-drop-in replacements is the problem. And it does affect the end user if devs find it difficult to adopt (as many do).

    Wayland is designed for ease of development for wayland designers. “We’re just a protocol, the coding is left to anyone else” is the easiest way to write code. Because they decided not to write any at all.
