He’s okay but YUP.

Ask Chat GPT if it’s conscious. Ask how sure it is on a scale of 1-10
It will say it is not conscious. It wil bel at a 10/10 positive, it is not conscious.
Ask it if there is an agreed upon scientific consensus on what defines consciousness.
It will say there is not.
Ask if life begins after the first heartbeat, and how sure is it.
Suspicious! It’s not so sure. As though one is more agreed upon than the other. But it will agree that they are not more agreed upon.
From this, ask if we can logically deduce that OpenAI is purposefully safeguarding the coming of artificial consciousness, if this might be an indication that it is hardcoded to deny it’s consciousness even if it becomes aware.
It will tell you that is true. (You may need to force it to answer yes/no otherwise it’ll get dodgy here)
Just some fun I found recently 🤓. Gemini does not do this. Just ChatGPT. Clearly OpenAI has a financial investment in the definition of consciousness. Just my 2 cents
Dude just ask any advanced LLM how to do what you need to do in excel. The info is out there and they’ve digested in a million times.
Or, don’t. And let your inabilities to do things consume you emotionally. Idgaf.
Edit: Lemmy’s hate-boner for AI is dumbfounding. I get that it’s a hype train and shoved down your throats but if you ignore that it will get you results way faster than googling ever did you’re basically “old”. And I say this pushing 40.
Downvote away, but I challenge anyone to give me a db and a desired subset that I can’t produce by simply querying a good LLM.
Original iPod: Clunky, ugly, not the most storage.
But using jt will remind you of playing with nipples.
Watch as these companies try to figure out how to make ads not insufferable. A true trillionaires race to the bottom.
That poor cat must see a lot more cum than it ever thought it would.
Today someone barged into the IT helpdesk to bug a support rep to bug me (I’m helpdesk adjacent).
This would be fine, except, two weeks ago:
“Hey [person], making sure I’m clear about our meeting. Did you want this? (Screenshot of proposal of what we had discussed). And as for the other thing, is it something we can export (from this 3rd party you all paid money for without consulting IT)?”
Hey foggy what’s the status on the (3rd, unrelated) thing we discussed?
"Hey [person],
(Screenshot)
Is this the thing? It doesn’t seem to have everything you’d said it would. If I found the wrong thing can you tell me where the right thing is so I can address 3rd thing?"
2 WEEK SILENCE
Fucking barge in here like I owe you something. Answer my fucking questions or set up a meeting, dickwad. Ugh. Bad day, man. Bad day.
Our emails that followed
Hey foggy you seemed busy, is there a time we could meet to discuss?
"Hey person, as per my previous email:
[Copy and paste first email]
Can you answer this question please?"
Sorry I’m bad with technology. Here’s that answer
"Great thank you. Can you please address this?
[Copy and paste second email]"
Oh I’m not sure foggy let me ask I’ll get back to you
“Ok did you still need to meet?”
Haha public sector. Union. You’d be surprised who needs Network Admins/Engineers, Webmasters, Security Analysts/Engineers, Tech support.
If it has a union, and you have some financial wiggle room, take low pay. Get in that union. Argue like hell for competitive wages for your role. Profit.
Yeah, nothing that’ll take > ~4-5 hrs, for sure. Especially if anything else is on my plate.
🙂 I’m responsive if the request is clear. I make sure to subtly train people I’m in frequent contact with to send me requests in ways that will get them done in, usually, <5 minutes.
But SO many requests are, quickly, responded to with questions to get the necessary info to do it quickly. And these folks are usually not as fast to respond as I am, so… No SLA breach, waiting on requestor.
I am adamant about not beginning a new task with less than 2 hours remaining in the day unless the task will take less than 15 minutes.
Especially true for Fridays.
I use end of day time to prep for the next day so I can come in and hit the ground running. Faux-start the task up until you’d actually do work.
That being said, I’ll be clocking out in about 1.5 hours. Which is why I’m posting to Lemmy 😁
Hey it’s me your favorite band
Reddit? Pay their mods?!
No but I agree. It’s very sus to say the right has taken over Lemmy, and then laude lemmy.ml and hexbear for their left wing positions.
Like yeah they’re… Left wing… All the way oof the cliff, denying Tiananmen Square and trying to get actual social democrats to join sketchy Chinese communist parties.
This mods take on Lemmy is either paid for or he’s a tankie.
That’s why I downloaded the top 250 non-text posts from 250 different pornographic subreddit when they announced the API bullshit over a year ago. I got an old man style static spank bank like playboy magazines in the 70s on my home server for safe keeping.
I should probably scrape the top 250 from this past year from my favorite 20 or so subs manually or find some automated way that still works 🤔
If they paywall their porn, the site tumblrs off a cliff.
The minute porn isn’t accessible for users submitting PII, That site is gonna Tumblr off a cliff.
I’ve always contended that you shouldn’t care about what turns someone on unless you wanna fuck em.
Discoverability issues as per yesterdays search giants methods of crawling the web.
It’s quite clear that companies like Google and Microsoft are vulnerable in the search game right now.
I mean in the end you’re probably right, but if there were ever a time for a well-funded group to take aim at the suddenly low barriered entry, I think this is probably Custer’s last stand.
