Kadai: an encrypted, vendor-agnostic personal kernel from which Plasma assembles each Activity. ...
This reminds me of crypto pitches when I give them a shot. I've used KDE forever, I know about "AI ownership," and I don't understand what they're pitching?
...Auto configuring widgets and virtual desktops? Is that it?
They should have just said that instead of "AI," not that I want it.
They don't. In fact, newer LLMs are regressing on that aspect.
But I am surprised the institutional response has been so slow. This is existential; every school should be moving heaven and earth to do stuff exactly like blue book tests.
FYI this was just a quick test with Minimax H3, locally generated on a RTX 3090/Ryzen 7800 desktop.
And to answer your question... yep. It's not a prompt box. H3 will take any combination of audio, video, and images as reference, as well as controlnets for poses, masking, character swapping...
My sibling’s dishes won’t get clean unless she runs the water first, as her sink takes a crazy amount of time to warm up.
YMMV though. Not all sink piping takes so long to “warm up” anyway.
So test it!
Run a dirty load. If your dishes get clean in the dishwasher, no problem; your routine ain’t broke. If you aren’t satisfied, try running the hot water first.
It’s certainly not worth an argument with an SO though, as it could plausibly help.
What I fear is when TikTok’s (or YouTube, Facebook, whatever) shaping of public opinion becomes more dramatic and blatant.
For instance, let’s say a leader connected to the Tiktok’s owner didn’t like their political opponent? What if they just deprioritized them from the algorithm, so their name is basically unknown?
Or what if a certain scandal was countered by boosting opposition videos?
If this sounds like I’m describing extant scenarios, well… yes.
Censorship is no longer hard. It’s statistical. Truth doesn’t matter if it doesn’t show up in feeds, and this is more scary to me than any mental effects Tiktok may be having.
Lemmy is more beholden to the “upvote algorithm” though, where the most popular posts (and engagement bait) tends to snowball and more obscure posts get less attention.
Explain to me: why is there so much hype (and controversy) around some Hyperland Arch Linux config, within like a month? Is this some astroturfing thing?
Evangelizing llms is pretty much all you do on here, you have spent an enormous amount of time and effort on them.
This is a fair point. I talk about it a lot here, too much TBH.
Sorting by New Comments, topics like this are mostly what come up and peak my interest... I suppose I need to curate/moderate my Lemmy feed, like I've been telling myself I should do for some time.
The entire premise of chatbots is to have a simple natural-language interface instead of those scary GUIs and programming languages.
Absolutely not. This is not what text models were made for, it's what jerks like Altman and Modi twisted them into with marketing.
The idea that maybe they didn’t know enough about how to interact with ai, and that’s why it failed to help them, is a little silly, and the more you explain how we’re all using ai wrong, the sillier you look.
I'm not blaming the user, I'm saying they're crap services. I think the superlative/cursing is necessary here; they are so bad and enshittified it is astounding.
You’ve obviously sunk a lot of costs into genai, both in time and money, and that is making you defensive.
I have paid a total of a few bucks into APIs, I've never had a Claude or OpenAI subscription in my life. I don't know why you would assume this.
Somebody that isn’t impressed by Claude premium isn’t going to do any of what you suggest, let alone get any more value out of it, and that’s valid for them. You’re not seriously interested in helping them professionally, you are just insecure.
I'm not insecure about this. I don't need LLMs or generative ML, though I am interested in it. I have many dire personal issues, but people are free to program however they wish and I'm not going to gaslight anyone about that.
I do think text models have been bastardized into "a simple natural-language interface instead of those scary GUIs and programming languages." That is NOT what they were intended to do, no matter how much Claude tries to sell people on it. I think this misunderstanding is extremely important because it's exactly what's propping up abominations/scams like OpenAI/Anthropic.
But they can still be extremely useful tools in narrower scopes, like all machine learning has for over a decade, and I'm not going to shy away advocating for that. I do resent all of LLMs being pigeonholed so tightly, and if people are going to try them, I at least want to point them to a more reasonable/frugal source than Claude premium and Claude Code.
Under the new system it actually lets the blocked person know they are blocked, which is horrible design because they now know that they need to use an alt to send you mean messages. Under the old system they don't actually know if their messages are getting through, so it is better in that regard.
Some models like Nemotron use open datasets, and utilize hardware more efficiently than OpenAI and such.
Its (IMO) also quite different when the weights are Apache licensed. If absolutely zero profit is involved, that gets close to the "fair use" umbrella, IMO, like other noncommercial derivative works of restrictively licensed content (fanfics/fanart).
You are not wrong about the closed datasets though, for the vast majority of LLMs. Lord knows what the Chinese trainers or OpenAI use to train...
But anything truly "open weights" is still a different order of magnitude in the ethics scale, IMO. I view the primary issue to be profiting off the scraping and training; take that away, and its not nearly as egregious.

They should have just said that instead of "AI," not that I want it.
I am afraid that will be as proprietary as a HP printer cartridge.
...Not that it wouldn't be fun to try the hack.
They don't. In fact, newer LLMs are regressing on that aspect.

All true.
This was happening before "AI" though. It's just more oil for the fire.
Swathes of the world are going full cyberpunk, for sure.
(turboslop warning)
Not anymore. Anyone with a beefy gaming PC can do reference-to-video with enough fidelity for memes.
...Especially when the "AI Actress" is already so bad.

I checked under my cabinet just recently, and the dishwasher is indisputably connected to the hot water line.
It was like this in the last place, too, and my sibling’s place.

4chan is chronological. It’s more pure, in a way.
Yeah. Kinda feels like OpenClaw and a few 'trends' before that.
...The heck happened?
I've been under a rock for a bit.

I dispute all of this

Blocking someone reduces ragebait engagement, and they can't have that, I guess...
