I was actually describing a piece of software, which is not considered a human being, and can in fact be treated differently without any legal or philosophical confusion

No you have to run them through an elaborate model first, then it’s totally legit to use someone else’s literal words as if they were your own
I think you just answered your own question.
Also a super intelligence (inasmuch as such a thing makes sense) might be totally unfathomable. Unless by this we mean an intelligence with mundane and comprehensible higher goals, but explosive strategic capabilities to bring them about. In which case their actions might seem random to us.
Like the typical example applies: could an amoeba guess at the motivations of a human?
I loved this cheeky comeback.
Why not reinvent the wheel? I’ve already learned a great deal in just starting this project, and I’m excited to learn a great deal more.
Your energy is infectious! I’ll be eagerly following this project
Thanks I have heard of this kind of problem before, just not in an adversarial space war context, with like opposing forces
Oh my god, that’s such a stupid and simple way to kill a galaxy, but also what a great plot twist that would make in a story. Like the big reveal over why the galaxy has always been at war with itself. Exactly the kind of nihilism I’d expect from an Altered Carbon or its ilk.
Thanks for sharing!
It is, you’re right. It’s kind of a poor comparaison now that I see it spelled out
Reminds of the accounts of people who owned enslaved people being afraid to let them go because of how they thought once freed they would turn around and slaughter their former “masters” because how could they not.
Except that didn’t happen.
This is it. The real product is hype, with a tiny tiny little kernel of actual utility, that is puffed up and remixed until the hype dies away, and we have to make do with whatever’s left.*
The hype machine with generative shit went into fuckin overdrive because while yes there is a grift component, natch; unlike with blockchain, nfts, web3, etc, there is an actual visible thing that the technology can do that hasn’t been done before.
People who are used to selling nothing but vapour lost their minds when they saw it, because rightfully so, they realised how much grift they were going to be able to make off of it.
* Usually this involves a bunch of platform engineers et al de-tooling codebases and infrastructure.
Right? This question is basically asking for a list of games I love, excluding the ones that somehow tricked me into finishing them
Or Black and Tans aka half and halfs
Yeah that’s relatable. It’s so easy to pick apart someone else’s words when you’re just passively observing, but when it’s you in the moment…
You don’t write your grocery list on a bit of paper stuck to the fridge…? I thought that was downright universal
Did they mean “and be doing so insinuate” I wonder? Initiate makes some sense too, just odd phrasing.
Anyway! I’m getting sidetracked lol! Haven’t even watched the video yet. Thanks for sharing the quote
Nah I’m into it
Haha nice, I guess I should post some stuff, get it back on folks’ radars
I think we all had that first moment where copilot generates a good snippet, and we were blown away. But having used it for a while now, I find most of what it suggests feels like jokes.
Like it does save some typing / time spent checking docs, but you have to be very careful to check its work.
I’ve definitely seen a lot more impressively voluminous, yet flawed pull requests, since my employer started pushing for everyone to use it.
I foresee a real reckoning of unmaintainable codebases in a couple years.
I thought for sure the article was pulling my leg when it got to that part
