I’m really waiting anxiously for chapter 2

03·18 days agoIf you think people deeply hate AI as you seem to do, maybe you should take your own advice, because the humans I talk with in a daily basis on my job are completely ok with it.

14·18 days agoThis isn’t really about the invisible hand of the market, I was talking about a single company. It costs money to keep those models up, which DDG itself hosts. If we were taking about Google, for example, then I could see the argument since it is a monopoly and my line of reasoning wouldn’t work.
I’m not trying to be troll as you accuse, I’m just trying to think from different perspectives and have something less sensitive to ideology.
We don’t find out the truth by agreeing with everything that panders to our beliefs.

113·18 days agoOk, if people hate AI so much, you’ll see it being gone soon. No company would want to spend money keeping an useless feature, principally DDG, which is no monopoly.
Also, that poll is about Americans, I don’t give a shit what Americans think.

415·18 days agoIf enough people were that bothered about a box with an AI overview, it wouldn’t be there. Simple as that. The thing is that the overview turns out to be helpful in some cases, despite what the haters think.

They’re a natural creation of humans to facilitate communication
If a language is easy to learn and easy to use, more people will speak it. The languages that don’t adapt die with the people who still insist on using it. There is an evolution and there is a goal, as you said, to communicate. A simpler language is bound to be chosen over one that adds obstacles to communication.
In the same way evolution is mostly driven by an animal’s ability to pass off its genes, language is mostly driven by it’s ability to be used and learned.
Now I’m thinking about Esperanto, maybe that is not completely true, idk
My native language isn’t English in case you were assuming that. I mention it because my native language has gone through a reform for the reasons of simplification. English may be shit, but it was much much easier to learn than the hell I am going through with German. Even Japanese, which I touched for a few years wasn’t nearly as bad. The point of languages it to be simple and efficient, and they should evolve to that goal eventually.
Dude, I’m trying to learn German and those goddamn articles are so infuriating. I wonder how difficult it would be for there to be a linguistic reform to make it simpler

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•The promise of quantum computing breaking the cryptography is a lie.English
1·23 days agoI’d say the roles are reversed. Entropy has to do with uncertainty or surprisal, it is hard to guess a private key than a public one, so I’d argue the private key has more entropy.

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•The promise of quantum computing breaking the cryptography is a lie.English
8·24 days agoWhy is a private key low entropy and a public one high entropy? Are you talking about Shanon entropy? If so, over what distribution?
Also, as far as I know from the time I was interested in QC, we already can break RSA, you can actually run it on actual quantum computers, although with fewer qubits. That’s why we have quantum safe cryptography.
I really don’t see how any of this violates the second law.
You accused me of conflating AI with generative AI while an entire community continuously conflates generative AI with an amalgamation of corporate interests and its irresponsible use. The wiki avoids using absolute statements because that is the proper way to communicate.
What is disrespectful is putting all the relentless work of AI researchers into the same pot you use to criticize capitalist interests.



Doesn’t load for me. I work with ANNs solving problems and compare it with animals doing a similar thing for my PhD. You can see a lot of similarities, and can model some animal behavior after it. However, even with the presence of similarities you can’t completely say it thinks “the same”, but you can say it is functionally equivalent: If you have two functions that give the same output for the same inputs, then they are the same function for that domain, same goes for brains.
Just to be clear, LLMs have some similar thinking patterns with what we know about the neural activity of animal brains, but I wouldn’t say it is the same, and saying they think “like humans” is very subjective.
One thing that is easier to notice is that they struggle with problems that require some form of recursive thinking, which is something a human can do. They can’t simply go back to correct their beliefs, once they spit something out it stays there, so they have to commit to it.
