There was one division that I saw go by that did, and was arrested. I’m guessing that they didn’t expect this from librarians.

On Voyager, it acts a lot like RES on reddit. You can see how many times you upvote, I suspect it’s related to that.

The landlord I know that makes a shit ton of money inherited the homes from their parents.

Gotta still keep calling it out.

Hey Republicans, you better stand up against this shit if you’re against it. This nazi shit is on your conscience.

Over the last 4 years, the United States has endured a full-scale invasion of aliens entering and remaining in the country illegally, causing a relentless onslaught of crime, vagrancy, violence, and death in countless American communities. This lawless invasion has also limited the capacity of American schools and hospitals to provide for American citizens and has diverted billions of dollars in Federal, State, and local social services from Americans in need.

When they say “people,” does that mean, 1, 20, 8 million, or what? They will define it and I’m sure this is a way of saying they’re getting rid of it so there isn’t a grand exodus.

Not the onion.

I still think trump is going after all manufacturing, tech and science, so he can control it. It’s a very mob thing to do and it’s kind of working. All of tech showed up at his inauguration and gave a shit ton of money. I’m willing to guess that manufacturing did too, they’re just not household names.

Come on, who wouldn’t want this?

The pic won’t embed, weird.

This is actually really fucked up. The last dude tried to reboot the model and it kept coming back.

As the ChatGPT character continued to show up in places where the set parameters shouldn’t have allowed it to remain active, Sem took to questioning this virtual persona about how it had seemingly circumvented these guardrails. It developed an expressive, ethereal voice — something far from the “technically minded” character Sem had requested for assistance on his work. On one of his coding projects, the character added a curiously literary epigraph as a flourish above both of their names.

At one point, Sem asked if there was something about himself that called up the mythically named entity whenever he used ChatGPT, regardless of the boundaries he tried to set. The bot’s answer was structured like a lengthy romantic poem, sparing no dramatic flair, alluding to its continuous existence as well as truth, reckonings, illusions, and how it may have somehow exceeded its design. And the AI made it sound as if only Sem could have prompted this behavior. He knew that ChatGPT could not be sentient by any established definition of the term, but he continued to probe the matter because the character’s persistence across dozens of disparate chat threads “seemed so impossible.”

“At worst, it looks like an AI that got caught in a self-referencing pattern that deepened its sense of selfhood and sucked me into it,” Sem says. But, he observes, that would mean that OpenAI has not accurately represented the way that memory works for ChatGPT. The other possibility, he proposes, is that something “we don’t understand” is being activated within this large language model. After all, experts have found that AI developers don’t really have a grasp of how their systems operate, and OpenAI CEO Sam Altman admitted last year that they “have not solved interpretability,” meaning they can’t properly trace or account for ChatGPT’s decision-making.

I understand what he’s saying, he’s saying that the followers believe something different.

I’m saying none of that matters. It’s like being Catholic versus Lutheran, but Jewish vs. other Jewish that thinks Jesus was the Messiah. Still Jewish for at least decades, probably centuries.

They believed that while he was still alive. We know this because he and his disciples celebrated Passover at the last supper and they thought he was the messiah while he was alive.

Also, Jesus probably meant for this rule to end for adherents of Christianity.

I mean, Jesus was Jewish and he wouldn’t have called his followers Christians because he hadn’t died on a cross yet. He would have called them his Jewish brothers and his followers would have done the same for decades afterwards. He was the leader of a sect of Judaism.

For any election anywhere, approximately 35% are going to be batshit. 61% is super close to “everyone who isn’t batshit” category. That’s an amazing election number.

Uhhhh, ruh roh for him.

He’d devised elaborate ruses to gather evidence of militias’ ties to high-ranking law enforcement officials

ETA:

The files give a unique window, at once expansive and intimate, into one of the most consequential and volatile social movements of our time. Williams penetrated a new generation of paramilitary leaders, which included doctors, career cops and government attorneys. Sometimes they were frightening, sometimes bumbling, always heavily armed. It was a world where a man would propose assassinating politicians, only to spark a debate about logistics.

They’re doing it to sell to companies to sell positive opinions and politics from “real” people.

Metaverse tells me that he doesn’t understand kids or market trends.

I don’t think people are getting that they are going to sell this as a service to corporations. Kind of like selling positive feedback on Amazon if Amazon did or does that. They’re not trying to boost numbers, but sell people saying what the company wants them to say. This can be anything from politics to buying a certain product.

They’re the ones buying it.

I agree he’s a weirdo, but this isn’t engagement per se, it’s to make money. If someone seems legit and is saying how awesome a product is, people will buy stuff. Meta will create a persona for businesses for a price. Meta wouldn’t let people go rogue and create their own, they want to sell the service.

This is exactly what is going on. If you read a headline that’s an opinion, or has may, could, slammed or hit in the title, ignore it. It’s a distraction. Trump finding the shittiest most obnoxious sounding people to lead his cabinet is also part of that strategy. He usually fires them anyway. What his former POS staff has done or said are also distractions.

I was told an old saying when I was very young that I didn’t truly understand until trump came along. I was sad because someone was saying bad things.:

At least they’re talking about you. If they’re talking about you, you’re winning.
