Was this released in 2022? No? Why does the tittle say “already”, then?

I think the meaning is fairly obvious; an imperfect ally is better than an all-out enemy. If you wanna do politics, you need to learn who you can safely ally with, who your actual friends are, and who will always be your enemy.
Edit: oh wow, look at all those comments on ML. I wonder why this person would object to lesser evil rhetoric favoring the democrats.
The person running for office is a politician? Say it isn’t so!
I wonder why this article is being released before the election, rather than later when the cooling of support isn’t extremely likely to lead to a strategic disadvantage? 🤔 Oh well, it’s probably just a coincidence. 🤷♂️ Definitely no ulterior motives here. 👍
I don’t remember where, but I’ve read they’re funded by oil companies. I think it’s actually surprisingly effective, because generating outrage is the point of demonstrations like this. Also, iirc, all their targets so far have been behind protective barriers, so no real damage either. Should they be inconveniencing oil execs? Sure! (I’d honestly prefer if they [comment cannot legally be completed], but that’s probably asking too much.) But their current strategy gets more attention, and more attention gets better awareness. No one cares about a rich asshole. Everyone cares about world-famous art.
I think the story is from 2015. I haven’t read it, but the title makes that seem likely.
“So what’s it like living in Russia?” “Oh, I can’t complain.”
Why is he still in the news?
Well it’s a shame you don’t have any authority, so you can’t force people to go along with your unhinged demands.
Judging from the headline, it was probably by being stinky.
Title and all? I would pick . If anyone disagrees, you’re lying.
Somehow my response wound up as a Direct comment.
TYVM!
My evaluation is that Trump will be less capable of doing the work of campaigning and people will be less interested.
I have an idea for a project that requires a suppliment to my utterly inadequate creative writing skills, and I have had abysmal luck finding a co-author. I don’t want to use the LLMs available online because I have learned not to rely on a tool that’s could disappear without notice. The part about it being potentially illegal was a joke and nothing more.
Have you considered that you can’t tell what someone does or doesn’t understand by a comment?
That’s entirely fair. I’m annoyed today, and the reply about the wrench just made it worse. My apologies.
I think you’re missing the subtle distinction between “can” and “should.”
To answer your question, I have friends that find them entertaining, and at least one who uses them in projects to do stuff, but don’t know the details. Have you considered that something you don’t understand might not be useless and evil? Your personal ignorance says nothing about a subject.
You’ve clearly misunderstood, and don’t know what the null hypothesis is. In scientific philosophy, (that is, the philosophical foundation of science, not philosophy that uses science) “overcoming the null hypothesis” or “rejecting the null hypothesis” means you have enough evidence to say that you know something. Furthermore, there is a difference between saying “I don’t believe that is the case” and saying “I believe that is not the case.” One is a declaration of ignorance, and the other is declaration of certainty. They could infact not be more different from an epistemic standpoint. Also, for the purposes of this discussion, whether I believe humans have self-awareness isn’t actually relevant; we are discussing the justification for believing that animals have self-awareness. Furthermore, there’s no such thing as a “default state” and being part of the same clade or other constructed set as a sophont strikes me as a generally utterly irrelevant factor in determining whether an entity is itself self-aware baring some evidence that there is a relation conveyed by being in that set that itself indicates self-awareness.
TLDR: your argument is bad, and you should educate yourself in philosophy. Particularly epistemology and logic.
It’s actually just the null hypothesis. We don’t assume rocks, trees, cars, flowers, stars, or soil are sapient either. It’s normal, correct, and good to not assume things with 0 evidence. Furthermore, I see a bunch of people who both insist that animals are self-aware and that LLMs definitely aren’t self aware, insisting they can’t be, despite the fact that they are literally capable of telling you that they are. (Note: I’m not trying to argue that AI are sapient.) This tells me that people who argue that animals are self-aware in general are speaking about what they’d like to be true rather than a reasonable belief.
Image for a second that I said you shouldn’t pull teeth with a wrench.
Your response would’ve been equally appropriate.
Go to the breaker box and pull the big one labeled “main”. Then call the fire department.
