I worked on the project to connect Parliament to the internet in the early 90s and those folks seemed to be OK. Same with the people we built gov.on.ca for.

Fidelitious posted:This town only has around 5,000 people. 13% of the entire town cared enough to go out and vote against crosswalks. That's way too many. Yeah, 25 more people voting for decency wouldn’t have altered the primary dynamic, which is that there is sufficient social support for bigotry that people are comfortable publicly organizing these campaigns in the first place.

Flair is actually better than most of these airlines that I’ve looked at in the past, because it’s all pretty clear on their “optional fees” page. I don’t think most people think of cancellation as an optional fee, but it’s close enough. The cancellation fees are independent of the price of the ticket, and added up quite badly in this case.

Poverty is a systematic stressor, which definitely affects the quality of decision making and other executive function (as does any stressor). See also: “why don’t they just cook from scratch when they get home from their lovely job plus long commute and start looking after their kids, it’s a much more economically-rational approach?”

PittTheElder posted:Yeah I don't know much of anything about the theory of LLMs, but it's frankly bizarre that they don't seem to have included any sort of confidence metric. They'll happily hallucinate an answer to an unanswerable question, present it with complete confidence, and if told they’re wrong, happily hallucinate a different answer with complete confidence. They have a “temperature” setting for controlling how much hallucination is permitted (making low-probability tokens more or less likely). The confidence metrics you can get from an LLM are basically per-token and don’t (indeed, can’t) reflect how close the generated sequence is in semantic meaning to assertions from the input set. LLMs operate on text patterns, not factual associations, and the chief failure in their application is confusing “plausible sequences of words” with “reasoning a human would use to produce those sequences”. There are a lot of tasks that can be mapped more or less successfully to analogical transformation of text, and LLMs really do best when sticking to those. My daughter was precocious in terms of speech, and I routinely had to remind myself that adult-like diction and vocabulary didn’t indicate adult-like reasoning or knowledge. It’s the same thing here, except that my daughter grew up faster than the AI models will IMO.

Oxyclean posted:When people hear "AI" they are rightfully cynical about what the implications are because investors are by and large, loving morons. as a former professional AI investor, I agree with this (one of my investments was a seed stage in a Canadian AI hardware company that’s now “worth” a billion, so at least that part went well)

I can write some bullet points and use ChatGPT to turn it into paragraphs of prose. My recipients will then have ChatGPT produce a summary of the text as bullet points. I’ve started just sending the raw bullet points and saving a few kWh per email.

People do that with spreadsheets and random metrics graphs and such that might be entirely disconnected from reality, too, to say nothing of TikTok stars and religious figures. We’re a credulous species, biologically biased to believe that what we’re hearing or seeing is true.
