clbottomt when the chtopt shows up [imagine this as that popular GIF meme]

Came here to post this.

Man I miss the times when Google used to trick us into helping make knowledge more easily accessible to everyone. Now we just train fucking AI for luxury cars.

Could be so, though it doesn’t look like a site where the devs have a fixed time schedule. (Not that I know much about managing a website, just my impression.)

Nope. I actually tried using a proxy and it got rejected for that very reason (with a different message), whereas two normal IPs had the problem described in OP.

My suspicion was correct, I can’t figure it out.

I know, as I’ve said, I’ve sent them an email through that form two days ago but have still gotten no response.

No, I have no idea what that is and I suspect I won’t be able to figure it out, but I can give it a try.

Something of the sort has already been claimed for language/linguistics, i.e. that LLMs can be used to understand human language production. One linguist wrote a pretty good reply to such claims, which can be summed up as “this is like inventing an airplane and using it to figure out how birds fly”. I mean, who knows, maybe that even could work, but it should be admitted that the approach appears extremely roundabout and very well might be utterly fruitless.

Ehhhh, if you have expertise in ANY field outside of like programming, you can easily test various models and see that they produce a lot of crap. That doesn’t require you to understand how LLMs work exactly.

If only they on reddit were so smart to check such stuff before sending the email. I also got the email here in EU and I never used VPN in my life.

Same. I learned about the ‘releases’ section only recently thanks to some kind Lemmy user (kinder than some I’ve seen on Lemmy and reddit discussing this same image, some people are openly supporting gatekeeping of software).

Anyone knows which book they’re referring to? It sounds a bit like Chekhov.
