I’ve told my wife that she doesn’t have to spend time with me if I end up with dementia and I start behaving that way. Both of my parents were more or less all there well into their 90s, but you never know.

My old land line was almost the same number as an entertainment venue whose number spelled TICKETS. People would sometimes dial 1 instead of 4 (corresponding to the letter I), and get me. Usually on weekend mornings, grr, but fortunately it didn’t happen too often.
They don’t care about factuality, and in fact have no ability to “know” if they are correct. And they don’t “care”
I suspect that most people think (maybe not even consciously) that these models answer questions by retrieving data and then writing a response which incorporates that data, rather than just generating text that may or may not contain actual facts.
It really bears repeating over and over that all these so-called AI systems do is take a prompt and output text in response to it that reads as if a human wrote it.
Yeah, I have an extremely unusual name. From what I can tell there are at most three other people in the world with the same name as me, and none of them lives here in the US.
Leaving aside the fun of being hassled for having a weird name when I was a kid, as an adult I am very careful about what I put online, since there is no way to hide it. If it’s in English and connected with my name, it unquestionably concerns me.
Its been okay, if a bit stale, but this was one was disheartening.
Yeah, I feel the same way. The other episodes were all right, although a bit heavy on the memberberries, but this was just awful.
I haven’t seen every episode of Futurama, but I’ve seen the vast majority, and while more than a few haven’t been my kind of humor, this is the first one I’ve seen that I thought actually sucked.
In retrospect it’s amazing how the nicotine addiction causes you to accept hocking up giant wads of brownish-black phlegm every morning as entirely normal.
I read the entire manual that came with the Macintosh LC that my wife and I bought in 1990.
Yeah, I haven’t seen all the RLM videos, but I’ve read that there used to be a woman who participated in them sometimes who stopped because she was disturbed by some of the fans’ comments about her.
I’ve noticed it in myself lately. I’ll compose a reply to an email and halfway through realize that the information I’m asking for is right there in the original email, or I’ll start writing a reply to an online comment and realize that I have gotten the writer’s point completely backwards. At least I catch myself, but it’s really weird.
I think part of it is that I’ve come to the conclusion that most people are so stupid and lazy that my default is to assume that they don’t know what they’re talking about, or won’t give me the information I need without special prompting on my part.
I don’t doubt that he and his various partners had sex at some point, but his children were all conceived via IVF.
That’s a really good one.
Yes, everyone I know outside the US uses it. If I understand correctly years ago in a lot of countries SMS was either very costly or unavailable, while WhatsApp was free.
Yeah, I was already in my thirties when the internet was opened up to the general public, and to me there was a kind of sweet spot around 2000 where the internet had begun to be really useful to ordinary people, but people didn’t spend all their time online. I guess the introduction of smartphones is what made the difference.
I like the idea that a lot of series are repeating Act II over and over. I had never thought of it that way, but it makes a lot of sense.
Yeah, honestly, I don’t mind reading novels that argue points I disagree with, but the repetitiveness is unbelievable. One of the reasons John Galt’s 60 page speech is so tedious is that all of the points he makes in it had already been made two or three times before by other characters.
You see the same phenomenon on Stack Overflow sometimes. A confidently incorrect answer will be marked as correct with a tremendously high score, while the actual correct answer languishes somewhere below.
Yeah, I’m old enough to have watched Enterprise when it was first aired, and I always went to grab a snack from the kitchen or something while the theme played.
