Fun thing, we don’t know which one is an impostor

Some really vicious backdoor that contains dangerous substance in a hidden chamber? Not a far reach when we are talking about corporate backdoors normalized.

When reading cyberpunk lore, quickhacks didn’t make any sense to me. Some programs that break cyberware because of backdoors, but why would people install cyberware with backdoors?

Now I look at the sad state of mobile market and, yeah ok, that makes sense.

Huh, using aurora for a few apps that aren’t foss, didn’t know there are any issues with it. I’m impressed how crisp it is.

Also TrackerControl FOSS app that filters ads on your phone directly. Can enable/disable different stuff per-app. Must have no proxy/dns to work.

Because UI/UX beats any abstract things like privacy & data ownership.

If you have trillemas all over it IS flawed in one way or another. End users won’t get through the complexity of multi-choice where every one has downsides. How do you even drive the adoption if every store would accept only their crypto of choice?

So, not decentralised in it’s original sense, if a pack of people decide which operations are allowed. Decentralised as in “not a single bank”.

See, this is what I mean when I say they all have flaws.

First time hearing about Canton. Is it properly decentralised?

You kidding? How many transactions per second bitcoin blockchain can do?

it’s theft

So is all the papers, all the conversations in the internet, all the code etc. So what? Nobody will stop the AI train. You would need Butlerian Jihad type of event to make it happen. In case of any won class action, the repayments would be so laughable nobody would even apply.

Deepseek

Deepseek didn’t opensource any proprietary AIs corporations do. I’m talking about forcing OpenAI to opensource all of their AI type of event, or close the company if they don’t comply.

betting on the future

Ok, new AI model drops, it’s opensource, I download it and run on my rack. Where profits?

I own crypto because I believe in idea of decentralised money, but I acknowledge that current solutions are just all bad in one way or another. If fiat disappeared tomorrow and everyone would be forced to use crypto daily, it would be a shitshow.

Forced opensourcing would totally destroy the profits, cause you spend money on research and then you opensource, so anyone can just grab your model and don’t pay you a cent. Where would the profits come from?

IP of writers

I mean yes, and? AI is still shitty at creative writing. Unlike with images, it’s not like people oneshot a decent book.

give it to the rich

We should push to make high-vram devices accessible. This is literally about means of production - we should fight for equal access. Regulation is the reverse of that, give those megacorps the unique ability to run it because others are too stupid to control it.

OpenAI

They were the most notorious proponents of the regulations. Lots of talks with openai devs where they just doomsay about the dangers of AGI, and how it must be top secret controlled by govs.

LLM aren’t good at math at all. They know the formulas, but they aren’t built to do math. They are built to predict the next syllable in the stream of thought.

What are they good for? When you need to generate lots of things and it’s faster to check after it rather than do it yourself.

Like you could’ve asked to generate a python app that solves your math problem, you would be able to doublecheck the correctness of the code and run it, knowing that the answer is predictably good.

Regulate? This is what lead AI companies are pushing for, they would pass the bureaucracy but not the competitors.

The shit just needs to be forced to opensource. If you steal the content from entire world to build a thinking machine - give back to the world.

This would also crash the bubble and would slow down any of the most unethical for-profits.

Nude 😳

Eh, as a dev I prefer just notebook screen over multiple screens

Turning down people isn’t something bad. It’s worse to end up with someone who don’t fit.

Friendzone though is most often just not having guts to say that loud and clear.

Just need to stack another layer of AI on top of AI duh

Cause it’s never stalker (and honesty, who reads stalker?), it’s boring tolstoyevsky stuff, which he listed at top. I just find it funny that I know the guy because of his shit taste in books, I imagine he’s ok otherwise.
