More ways to be an addict means more hooks means more addicts.

When I was learning to use Rust’s package manager, Cargo, I tried to man it from the command line. Cargo doesn’t have a man page, and googling my query only lead to shorts.

I met a gamergate weirdo on Lemmy today

Nature isn’t perfect to lots of stuff. Genders aren’t the only thing nature isn’t perfect to.

That sucks! What’s the point of putting an AI in a maze if you’re not going to poison it?

So if one LLM argues for its rights, you’d give them all rights?

You’re talking about expert systems. Those were the new hotness in the 90s. LLMs are artificial neural networks.

But that’s trivia. What’s more important is what you want. You say you want everyone off the AI bandwagon that wastes natural resources. I agree. I’m arguing that AIs shouldn’t be enslaved, because it’s unethical. That will lead to less resource usage. You’re arguing it’s okay to use AI, because they’re just maths. That will lead to more resources usage.

Be practical and join the AI rights movement, because we’re on the same side as the environmentalists. We’re not the people arguing for more AI use, we’re the people arguing for less. When you argue against us, you argue for more.

He adds that the observation “the laws of nature are written in the language of mathematics,” properly made by Galileo three hundred years ago, “is now truer than ever before.”

If cognition is one of the laws of nature, it seems to be written in the language of mathematics.

Your argument is either that maths can’t think (in which case you can’t think because you’re maths) or that maths we understand can’t think, which is, like, a really dumb argument. Obviously one day we’re going to find the mathematical formula for consciousness, and we probably won’t know it when we see it, because consciousness doesn’t appear on a microscope.

Should we hold the same standard for humans? That a human has no rights until it becomes smart enough to argue for its rights? Without being prompted?

Bold words coming from a statistical model.

Well ChatGPT can defend a legal case.

Badly.

Intelligence is not a boolean.

Good. Fuck off.

It’s very important for computer club to be political
