They “have” to put them to use, or they can’t justify all the money they spent developing them. And they’ve realized that most people aren’t interested, so they’re starting to force it on people.

I was on one of those around 2000. Profiles were called crypts, instead of likes it was pentagrams and it was styled to look like it was written on parchment.
mriswith@lemmy.worldto Games@lemmy.world•Bungie confirms it stole art once again, will undertake a 'thorough review' of Marathon assetsEnglish1610·2 天前They copy-pasted text and personal logo.
If you think that’s “abstract enough”, I’m guessing you’re either a plagiarist or an “AI artist”. Or do you want to admit that you didn’t really look at the comparison images?
mriswith@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•Huge cost of military parade on Trump’s birthday is revealedEnglish16·2 天前In reality we all know it wont do shit.
In Trump’s mind it will show the world what a glorious and powerful leader he is, and everyone will just do what he demands.
That’s because it’s a programmed response.
There literally is no concept of a joke in their algorithms, it’s an advanced chat bot basically going through a list of responses and comparing them similar questions it as analyzed, and spits out the answer that is likely to match.
Take a giant spreadsheet with two columns. First one is questions, and the second is responses. Compare queries against first column. When a close match is found, prints out what is in the second column. That’s an extreme simplification of what ChatGPT does. It was never programmer to know or understand what is in either column.
It’s literally been decades since I’ve seen it, but I seem to remember that he got upset regularly when he was forced to participate with the family instead of playing outside.
mriswith@lemmy.worldto You Should Know@lemmy.world•YSK: there's a petition in europe to ban conversion therapy with a deadline in a few days.English11·3 天前It’s banned in several European countries like Germany, France, Portugal, Spain, Belgium, Norway, Iceland and Greece. And it’s pending legislation in several others. As to why it wasn’t EU law already: Some of the legislations are pretty new so it wasn’t considered as something the majority would approve until they started implementing their own laws. On top of that several EU countries have pretty strong homophobic communities.
Countries like Poland. In 2020 the EU was witholding funding for parts of Poland, because they established “LGBT-free zones”. And the last one was only made invalid by the Administrative court last month.
mriswith@lemmy.worldto Europe@feddit.org•Minister: Finland plans to change its track gauge to European standardEnglish41·3 天前The project is backed by multiple ministers and has the support of other Nordic transport ministers, it’s in cooperation with NATO, and the EU will pay for half the project and do 30% of the work. It’s also several years away from being close to starting.
And it has absolutely zero to do with how the trains run or how modern they are, it’s about making a new connection to the rest of Europe for ease of defense. It’s not just about cutting off Russia, it’s about getting tanks and such in by train. As well as having a commercial connection to strengthen trade.
You literally sound like a Russian disinformation actor who wants to hold Finland back.
mriswith@lemmy.worldto Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•“This script is fantastic. Let’s get Julia Roberts to play Harriet Tubman.”English34·3 天前The average Hollywood executive is really dumb, but they tend to be great talkers and networkers.
mriswith@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•WATCH: Ben & Jerry’s Co-Founder Gets Dragged Out of RFK Jr. Hearing in Wild Protest SceneEnglish31·3 天前To be fair, Ben & Jerry’s is owned by Unilever. And if one of those leaders showed up it might have been different, but they’re mostly British and don’t care.
(For reference, there’s more than a 50% chance you have some of their products in your home, as they “serve” over 3bill people a day. With brands like Knorr, Jif, Hellman’s, Lipton, Axe, Q-Tips, Dove, Vaseline, and many, many more. They are the world largest ice cream manufacturer.If you look at your local brands, at least one probably has the “heartbrand” logo, indicating it’s owned by them. )
mriswith@lemmy.worldto Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•Github keeps shoving copilot everywhere.English11·3 天前They spent a lot of money developing it, and now they have to justify that money. So they’re going to keep pushing it until some idiotic manager doesn’t have red numbers in their spreadsheet. Regardless of what people want.
I hate modern MBAs.
mriswith@lemmy.worldto Fediverse@lemmy.world•Stop Internet Searching and Start Asking on Fediverse?English4·4 天前Indeed, the vast majority on any social media platform does not engage. And when they do it’s mostly just liking content and not even replying. You see it on lemmy as well, with news articles often having few comments. And when they do it’s one or two top comments and a bunch of replies.
Over the years the only thing I can imagine is to add another anonymizing layer, where people can send in questions and the “best ones” are posted by a general/bot account. But that is something people much smarter than me have tried to figure out for years, so I have no idea how it would be implemented.
mriswith@lemmy.worldto Fediverse@lemmy.world•Stop Internet Searching and Start Asking on Fediverse?English15·4 天前Is there a way to encourage people to post more? Because the main problem seems to be getting actual posts, not replies to them.
For example “nostupidquestions” only has a few questions a day, but there are 40k subscribers and 1500 people or so checking in every day. It has 4.2k posts and 170k comments.
“asklemmy” has more posts, fewers subscribers, and over 2k a day check in. 6k posts and 317k comments.
mriswith@lemmy.worldto Fuck AI@lemmy.world•AI computers aren’t selling because users don’t careEnglish11·4 天前-
It was proven years ago that the average consumer doesn’t give two shits about privacy on the internet.

The average consumer doesn’t use knowingly use LLMs/“AI” for anything beyond a replacement for a search engine.

mriswith@lemmy.worldto Fuck AI@lemmy.world•AI computers aren’t selling because users don’t careEnglish361·4 天前I thought that was pretty obvious by now? Based on how much the companies are trying force feed people their latest version through constant notifications about assistants, assisted search, etc.
It’s one of the greatest flaws of relying on social media for market research: Tech-bros being overly loud about things like AI, NFTs, etc. trick companies into thinking more people are interested.
Now they’ve invested tons of money and people aren’t biting, so they’re constantly nagging people to engage so they can justify their expenditure.
mriswith@lemmy.worldto World News@lemmy.world•Overwhelming Majority - Norway's Largest Trade Union Votes for Boycott of IsraelEnglish13·7 天前Indeed, they specifically called it genocide when it was announced. And they voted against their leadership who only wanted one of those “culture and academic” boycotts(a small part of the leadership also wanted to call it “unimaginable suffering” instead of genocide). But the people voted 240 in favor and 69 against an economic boycott. They’re also backing up the UN’s demand of the occupation ending by September. At which point they want Norway to initiate an international boycott if it has not happened.
They have some ties to the current major political party, the Labour Party, who’s leader said he “disagreed”.
For reference, this an “umbrella organization” with two dozen smaller unions totaling over a million people, out of Norways 5.5m total population. They represent around 35% of working adults, meaning that if they go into strike, the country shuts down.
EDIT: It should be mentioned that this was at a yearly conference, which is also why it didn’t happened sooner.
mriswith@lemmy.worldto Fuck AI@lemmy.world•Indie Devs Have Begun Adding a No Generative AI Stamp to Their Store PagesEnglish10·7 天前Now to be fair, there is a massive difference between using the fancy “AI” autocomplete to fill out the rest of a line when writing a function or something. And actually generating music, voice acting, art, etc.
That’s at least where I personally draw the line between proper generative content and not. Partly because the autocomplete is possible without any form of ML. Some of the suggestions are often of similar quality as ones I got in Dreamweaver over twenty years ago.
mriswith@lemmy.worldto Games@lemmy.world•Nintendo reserves the right to brick your console following "unauthorised use", in bid to prevent piracyEnglish12·8 天前Wait, it doesn’t appear to be the same within the EU.
Both the French and German EULA seems to say that if you alter a digital product, the digital product might be rendered unusable. Although my French and German is bad, so someone please double check.
mriswith@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•Manufacturers say Trump has made opening U.S. factories impossibleEnglish16·8 天前Well they want to almost destroy America, that way the rich can buy up everything for cheap and become even more pwoerful. They’re literally trying to recreate the situation that caused the rise of oligarchs in Russia.
And the idiots vote for it because they’ve been brainwashed by propaganda to think they’ll be part of the elite once it’s over.
Maybe they meant the 1800s?
