I work with large language models because it's a quick and easy way to turn
language into meaning. And computers are meaning abstraction machines, so if
you can speak your language and they hear their language, you can do anything.

LLMs can't do math. Duh. That's like asking an "if check" to do recursion.
What he should have done is had the AI output the requested calculation as
JSON or something and use a calculator function call with the specified
arguments instead of trying to memorize every answer. But that requires more
functionality that has no reason to exist if your only goal is to be a tech
bro and build up a vacuous product that exists only to be hoovered up by
Google or Microsoft.
We could build such beautiful things if we just dethroned those giants. They
suck the creativity out of tech.

be a fun diversion from posting. You can reply to yourself, add
clarifications, change some things, put things in a new light, add context,

your best stuff and make zines.

if you set up a local LLM with the capability to explain basic coding syntax
and logic, then your parents computer suddenly becomes much more useful to the
nephew that's been forced to hide out there for a couple weeks until this all
blows over.

nobody wants to write computer code that lets Java programs call Rust
functions.
An LLM is excellent for this task, since it's relatively easy busy work that
doesn't
reflect any meaningful implementation decisions besides "I should be able to
call that Rust function in my Java code"
In addition, it is technically efficient at it as well, because most of
compatibility
is matching up two sets of documentation. Easy for a text-processing machine.

AKA giving a puppy murder-bot a narrative that it executes as if it was a
puppy-person engaging with a loosely interpreted sequence of events as
described by the continually updating logs provided by the image transcription
camera device. Refererencing of course a memory bank, which may-or-may-not be
in read-only-memory. It doesn't know, of course, how could an LLM tell you how
it shows text on the screen (like, through a website, through the terminal,
through a text message, through discord, through Telegram, through
text-to-voice transcription applications pretending to be your mom, etc)
errrr I mean look how cute he is! He loves you, yes he does, such a good
person yes you are, oh? me? I'M A GOOD BOY? NO WAY that's the best thing I've
ever heard! Wow! I never want to leave your side, please don't go to work!

Consumption is contribution to a capitalist system. Normalize taking whatever
you are given and living as humbly as you can. Only when everyone does that
may capitalism die. Talk to them, learn from their stories. Teach them your
ways but don't force anything upon them. Any ounce of regret is defined as a
mind not aligned to the angle of perception that designs the line that the
collective mind co-re-assigns.

... hmmm could be accomplished with a layer of abstraction. You could use a
"fediverse client" software to enter text into an HTML page which would have
it's own UI and stuff and would organize your accounts and instances such that
you could mark like, 3-7 as places you'd like to put a particular message.
Then it would just... do it

if someone wanted to defame you, all they'd have to do is set up a pipeline
between your computer and your social media posts.
In that pipeline, attach an LLM that does a passable job and instruct it to
transform whatever they say into the inverse.
suddenly, everyone hates that person. If you were smart you could turn it off
for specific people such that they see the generally positive and healthy
posts, and then after a point flip it such that they only see things that are
specifically opposit-ed to trigger their specific insecurities.
might require a bit of a human touch to make sure it's working correctly, but
if you had the means, motivation, and time to set up such a thing, it would
work pretty well I think.

The best way to program computers is to organize them according to their
relations. Like, when x increases by 4 then y increases by 2 - basically, a
math equation that you can continuously solve by calculating more and more
comprehensively and deeply.

Yes! The ease of use for GPU programming is lovely. Like I said all I need is
a use-case, I've downloaded as much reference material as I think I'd need to
be able to hack together something fairly quickly if I needed it. That's all I
have the mind-space to focus on lately haha

true, but what is a poem if not a silly construction of phrases? Those words
don't belong together, what are you doing! And yet it fills you will a feeling
that the author intended, thus being poetry as a joke.
problem is if everyone says the same joke, it gets kinda... old... hence why
you should express yourself as much as you can.
I wonder if fewer people are "alternative" these days because they all started
hanging out on the internet and trying to differentiate themselves amongst
each other instead of amongst "normal people"? Weird thought, srry haha
