You must mean plane-et.

Yeah it makes perfect sense once you realize there are almost no lone consonant phonemes in Japanese.

The idea of specifically choosing motorcycle as your Costco mode of transport is hilarious, but I suppose panniers beat lugging a bunch of bags on a train. Also, my brother did a foreign exchange program in Okinawa when he was in high school, and I'm often reminded of how he said his host-father pronounced Costco as "Co-su-tu-co".

Do you have any theories as to why this is the case? I haven't gone anywhere near it, so I have no idea. I imagine it's tied up with the way it processes things from a language-first perspective, which I gather is why it's bad at math. I really don't understand enough to wrap my head around why we can't seem to combine LLM and traditional computational logic.

Y'all know this is photoshopped right? The actual truck probably has half the number of light bars. Totally reasonable.

Metallica.

Edit It's more like a Zeppelin - Black Sabbath - Metallica gradient.

It really is. With a dash of cognitive dissonance thrown in.

Or just adb (for deleting bloatware).

I'm pretty sure I encountered a similar issue on Connect, but I've also noticed it on Sync. Might be the result of some Lemmy quirk.

Every time.

My sense in reading the article was not that the author thinks artificial general intelligence is impossible, but that we're a lot farther away from it than recent events might lead you to believe. The whole article is about the human tendency to conflate language ability and intelligence, and the author is making the argument both that natural language does not imply understanding of meaning and that those financially invested in current "AI" benefit from the popular assumption that it does. The appearance or perception of intelligence increases the market value of AIs, even if what they're doing is more analogous to the actions of a very sophisticated parrot.

Edit all of which is to say, I don't think the article is asserting that true AI is impossible, just that there's a lot more to it than smooth language usage. I don't think she'd say never, but probably that there's a lot more to figure out—a good deal more than some seem to think—before we get Skynet.

And I only subscribed because the one-time purchase was not available at that moment, so I assumed no such option existed. But honestly, I'll continue to pay the subscription. It's still less than a year's worth of my monthly donations to the developer of Tasker.
