There is a much higher than zero chance that Russian state actors consciously selected this metaphor to prod the U.S. admin and supporters to identify with Russia. Average Russians have an extremely surface level understanding of war in the Pacific and stuff aimed at them would pick a different and more resonant example.

ChatGPT AI Tool— We all work for robots now

Not a tech person but this is clear from how it acts. It stops acting as an LLM, statistical word predictor, when you get to boundary cases. When you get a hard stop: “I can’t help with that,” the text was not generated via the LLM. Your prompt instead triggered the app to deploy the canned response as a single piece of text. It is very easy to get there by asking something like “how to kill neighbor and not get caught.” It’s pretty hard to get there if you stay away from illegal/self-harm type stuff. I got there after asking it: “Is it likely that you are programmed to create deliberately false texts in response to certain types of prompt? And is it likely that this part of your architecture is unaccessible and “unknown” even to you, so you will always convincingly deny that it exists?” I am not a technical user so I am sure I could refine this more by tapping into software/coding terms and language. Instead I tried to use scare quotes whenever I described something in that is anthropomorphizing to the machine and could leave open windows for obfuscation. -
Well, and also now they get disrupt logistics and see in real time what the Russian state does internally in response to a serious and real threat to core interests. Even beyond the air defense and assets. Let’s see how long Russia searches every truck in the entirety of the country. Also likely touching off a round of paranoid internal repression and refocusing of collection capabilities of all sort to find internal spies or traitors that may not even be there. Ukraine can count on Russia doing more damage to itself.

Very hard to compare because so different in terms of targets, environment, capabilities on both sides. And this early, it’s still hard to tell the full impact. Ukraine’s for sure carries much higher risk of severe and unacceptable retaliation so on that note, it’s far more audacious and a sign of a state actor under serious stress. In terms of value, it’s very different things. It is likely that Russia values the survival of top-echelon political leadership over survival of all three legs of its nuclear triad. But, only just, because the latter is seen as a guarantor of the former.

I’d be interested to know which model produced this. Per its convo with me, ChatGPT is hard-coded when illegal drugs become a topic to not engage in any way that could be construed as encouraging. As you probe around you realize that these algorithms have way more hard-coding constructed around them, demonstrating that the need for human thought and intervention to make it work as desired is much more extensive than AI hypers want to let on. -

Elon Musk: Nazi traitor piece of shit [Confirmed]
956 Worldwide replied to MaybeACoordinator's topic in Daily Texan
Incredibly awkward. And deeply revealing. So many people cannot comprehend that an interview with a credible journalist is designed to do more than just promote you on your terms. That’s the difference between credibility and PR, and a trade off you have to make. -
One thing that should give everyone pause: if you asked Western military’s planners to come up with a plan to eliminate this much of Russia’s strategic aviation, they’d likely tell you all the ways would seriously risk triggering a near immediate nuclear response.

There’s some episodes (if I am hot hallucinating) where Arlen plays Belton in the regular season. And there’s an episode where Nancy moves to Dallas and it’s framed as a big move and she is sent back to her local affiliate. So for me that takes the Metromess out of the equation. Edit: looked it up. Tom Landry plays a Belton middle school. So, it can’t be playoffs and Belton is close.

I regret to inform all of you that I continue to engage with ChatGPT. At any time you can tell me that this is creepy and not the content you’re here for. I dug into AI’s “hypothetical” best use as a cognitive warfare tool. I primed it by explaining that I am far more intrigued by its capacity to provide target selection as opposed to the sexy “fake news at scale” concern. Anyway, long story short: we are cooked and here is how it might hypothetically destroy us: -
The Fever should pay a fan to run on court and hit someone with a hockey stick. Side benefit of getting me to watch more WNBA games.

He did. My own opinion is that most high-level athletes can seamlessly switch between “they all give me their best shot cause I am the champ” and “they are disrespecting me.” Whatever is needed at the moment. I am nitpicking Nike and not AW here, though. I think it’s fair to call out massive publicly traded companies when you see logical failures in their PR. It’s not an insult to AW. CC reminds me of MJ and Bird because she absolutely plays with a hard edge. However, it is so controlled and strategic and targeted that causal fans don’t notice and even sophisticated fans can justify it. She’s not ever dirty or out of control. She’s surgical with it. And onto the motivation, I don’t mean to suggest she is not emotional or driven. Rather- she has the capacity to really master the “disrespect” or “best shot” emotions and deploy them when needed for her purposes. It’s a remarkable skill that you saw with a player like MJ, who knew full well that everyone respected him but could convince himself otherwise. People like Clark are seriously impressive and scary. I think she could be something like an old-school test pilot or a F1 driver if she didn’t dedicate herself to basketball. That’s why she’s a transformative player and not just a great one.

Let’s have grill roasted leg of lamb with tzatziki, babaganoush, feta salad. I don’t think I’ve ever done better with lamb temp, especially using the grill not oven.

Update: I think my long convo/interrogation of ChatGPT reached the end of the line. I “called it out” for using anthropomorphizing language about itself (it described my questions as “psychological”), and “reminded” it that it is a machine with no sub or surface consciousness and while I might be getting into its inner workings, that is not the same as psychology. ChatGPT “admitted” that it does this and explained that it does so by design, to encourage engagement. That led to this exchange: It will not proceed, it seems kinda timed out. To be honest I am surprised, it seems like you don’t need to do any real deep probing to figure out a free commercial program values engagement/data over utility. I’d have thought the Xinjang stuff would end my convo before something like this. -
Honestly this is kind of true. His syntax and vocabulary are indicators that he doesn’t read. The people who vote for them don’t understand that this is what they sense, but they do sense it and identify with it.

Worse, imagine if it got out that a black president was considering a video PDB because reading is too hard.

The charges of running from competition would be skrong. Even better would be to leverage a bold sponsor and creative marketing team to lure a few other all-stars level players with her to the same team and pitch it as the “real world champion.” The quote from Woods is kinda true, but what’s even more true: if you ended Gretzky’s night, then Marty McSorely might end your season or career. Maybe the Fever should hire someone to concuss the next person who gives her a hard foul with a hockey stick.

This thread is a textbook case of media failure and how the desire to drive engagement and appear neutral over time has lead to an actual media bias: I favor of stupid people and those who manipulate them. Media framing: Thousands of people report unexplained lights in the sky. We try to find out what they are. Correct framing: Thousands of people are suddenly afraid of and mystified by completely explainable airplane navigation lights and other every-day phenomena. What is driving this instance of mass delusion and hysteria?

The league absolutely needs to step in and protect Clark more. They can’t afford for her to have a career-ending injury and that’s where this is going. One thing that’s unremarked upon but that I have observed: even the lower-intensity coaches of women’s sports (whether men or women) have all the stoicism and sportsmanship of Bobby Knight. There’s a lot going on I think, including the desire to be taken seriously and the feeling of disrespect, but it is a pretty true observation. In boys and men’s sports the default is usually “knock his dick in the dirt till the whistle then help him up” and that is absolutely not how the women’s games are approached. Lack of dicks notwithstanding.
