You can probably find someone around here to set it on fire for you.

One summer at age 10 I was running around my grandparent’s little hometown (population 250) with a .22 shooting squirrels, birds, and assorted junk targets.
Nobody cared.

Holy shit, he’s like more than 50% human. I didn’t know such politicians existed.

Are the family members legal immigrants? Or are they US citizens? If they aren’t citizens but are here legally, I don’t have a problem with revoking their legal status and deporting them back to their country of origin in the case of a family member engaged in terrorism w/harm.
Being a legal immigrant means you and your family are guests here. You aren’t a US citizen and you shouldn’t expect all such rights. If I invite a family of four into my house and the dad drops his pants and shit’s on the rug, I’m gonna kick them all out. Does that make me the asshole for not wanting to break bread with the rest of them anymore?
If the family are US citizens, then it’s a different story entirely.

This AI generated video was made in 8 hours by one dude using today's AI tools. Made to reflect Orson Welle's 1938 "War of the World's" radio broadcast with a large dose of cynical humor at the state of today's world.

A good article that is echoing what I am seeing and hearing about in the tech industry and what has been discussed here.
The money quote as far as recent discussions and impacts on tech companies and their workers.
QuoteLEARN TO CODE?
As AI revolutionizes the industry, many jobs - particularly entry-level coding positions that are more basic and involve repetition - may be eliminated. Signalfire, a VC firm that tracks tech hiring, found that new hires with less than a year of experience fell 24% in 2024, opens new tab, a drop it attributes to tasks once assigned to entry-level software engineers are now being fulfilled in part with AI.
Google’s CEO also said in April that “well over 30%” of Google’s code is now AI-generated, and Amazon CEO Andy Jassy said, opens new tab last year the company had saved “the equivalent of 4,500 developer-years” by using AI. Google and Amazon declined to comment.
In May, Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella said at a conference that approximately 20 to 30% of their code is now AI-generated. The same month, the company announced layoffs of 6,000 workers globally, with over 40% of those being software developers in Microsoft’s home state, Washington.-

No, it's not. Collectively, we're a whole hell of a lot dumber than Dax Shepard who really only wanted to rub one out and be left the hell alone.
Now this is a party platform I can get behind.

I saw it today, I'd say I was slightly disappointed. I don't regret seeing it, but I'd read this thread and heard way too much about how fucking awesome it was for it to live up to my expectations going in, I think. It was beautifully set and shot, the musical aspects were fantastic, the acting was very good to great -- but overall the movie felt less than the sum of its parts to me.
SpoilerI understand that it took blacks and whites from southeast America in the 30s and introduced vampires into the mix as a juxtaposition. The "evil monsters" -- the vampires -- wanted to welcome the blacks, to integrate them into their family, while all the whites wanted to do was murder them for being black. Which brings up an interesting question: who were the real monsters? These supernatural bloodsucking vampires? Or the ordinary white folk who couldn't see any humanity in a black person?
But all the vampire stuff felt pretty cliche, the whites were just an over-the-top stereotype, and how it was all stitched together felt pretty disjointed to me -- especially the ending massacre. So as a whole, it fell flat to me. I thought 28 days later did a better job of using a horror film to make the point that humans can be more monstrous than monsters.
I would have liked it more if the climax would have required the twin brothers being forced to choose a path, and with them choosing separate paths. One chooses to go vampire and one chooses to stay human. Epilogue first shows the one who stayed human living oppressed as a black man in the south during the Jim Crow era, then it shows the one who went vampire living a life of relative equality and freedom in this integrated vampire family where the color of your skin doesn't matter. -
Yeah, well...

I'm running a 24B parameter model locally on my 5070ti and I get completely acceptable results with it, but it doesn't have the context window of a cloud hosted model and responses aren't as fast. I use ollama and chatbox as my local stack and it's a pretty capable solution for doing note summarization and other personal tasks. Heck, I can even power Cline with an ollama-hosted (local) model and it's been a lovely coding companion for helping fill out unit test coverage and fixing python version upgrade compatability things.
Intel's newest B50 and B60 GPUs ($300 and $500) are really well suited for locally hosted models, 16GB of memory and 170TOPs at 70W of power is pretty compelling
Mind if I send you a pm with some questions?

A key difference also is that ChatGPT is specifically NOT a large language model - it's an application built on top of one. This sort of profiling and creepiness doesn't happen with a locally hosted LLM, and that sort of tracking is from the application built around the LLM. Kind of a nitty gritty difference but it's important
Several of my customers have built their own $companyGPT using a combination of cloud hosted LLM for general queries, and local LLMs for queries with data sensitivity considerations
Were doing that now, specific agents for different company roles with essentially a sandbox of data and tools that the LLM can use in response to prompts.
I’m looking at LM studio and local-only models for personal use, but I haven’t liked the results as much as ChatGPT.

@956 Worldwide start asking it what it knows about you, especially about what it might have inferred of you through your conversations vs what you might have explicitly stated or revealed. Ask it to guess things about you based on your conversations, things like age, race, ethnicity, sexuality, political ideology.

> Anyway. The point is, Amodei is a salesman, and it’s in his interest to make his product appear inevitable and so powerful it’s scary. Axios framed Amodei’s economic prediction as a “white-collar bloodbath.”
And Allison Morrow is a writer at CNN who needs eyes and clicks and shares. So given they are both salesmen of sorts, I'll have to rely on direct experience. This isn't in the distant future in my industry, it's happening now. I can see it with my own eyes at my company, I hear about it in the experience of my peers at other companies. I'll have to trust that direct observed evidence over the musing of a media analyst.

Shit is rampant in my company. Every early career suck up sends out their meeting notes or "Summary" from an industry event they didn't even attend. It's all obviously AI generated, and they can't stop patting themselves on the back for it.

I’m an engineer, I enjoy taking complex problems, coming up with an elegant solution, and delivering it to production in an act of creativity. That process is what I derive my job enjoyment from. I can see a day in a not too distant future where my job description would be better described as AI quality assurance tester. Where I am mostly translating requirements to effective prompts and validating the results. I am not going to like that job very much.
There are others I know who are primarily product engineers, who really are only motivated by the champagne pop and mic drop moment when they get to present the culmination of their work. They take no pleasure in the day to day aspect of how they got there. They are ecstatic about AI.
