Eh, there is so much other stuff around this particular book store that I doubt you'd be disappointed if you went down there and it was closed. Also, this is not a typical book store. It has ancient, rare books, vintage books in all sorts of languages, and just all sorts of neat stuff you would probably never think to actually "search" for. It's not like a books-a-million or a library even. It's a totally unique experience you really can't get online.

I love this bookstore!! It is very difficult to figure out if it will be open. You have to just drive or walk by and look to see if the door is open. Do you live in wheeling or nearby? If so, hi neighbor!! Didn't think there were too many ohio valley folks on lemmy!

Oooh buddy, is isn't even young engineers using these to destroy their designs. I was at a building construction conference recently where one of the presentations was about how AI is going to "give us so much time back" as designers. He then told us about how the AIs hallucinate math still, and that the AI companies are not liable for their output. After the presentation, I and another person asked him a question about who exactly the liability will lie with and how someone could protect themselves from the liability without spending all the time we "save" meticulously checking the outputs. His response was to generate thousands of outputs for the same task and then only check "the best versions." Okay, so how will we know which are the "best" without meticulously checking thousands of them?

Anyway, afterwards, I asked my colleagues from all around the country who were at the conference for their opinion on AI and the presentation, and most of these 50-60 year old men told me they regularly use it in their work already. So be prepare for things constructed in the past few years to be incredibly dangerous facilities to be in or near.

Evangelicals believe catholics are evil, I think. So the Chistians who are cheering on the bringing about of the apocalypse are cool with all that until they start directly target "real christians." Maybe....

Wait til this starts happening in the construction industry.

I think I know where you might be able to get rid of those.

I think it's easy for people on good terms with friends and family to judge someone for talking to a bot for companionship, but I think if they were in your same situation, they would reconsider. If you need it to get through a tough time, I think that's okay. You need to keep yourself grounded somehow, though. The LLMs are trained to agree with you on everything, even bad, dangerous ideas. Read about AI psychosis before you talk to them any further so you are prepared for the pitfalls. Obviously it's best to talk to real people who care about you, but sometimes those people don't exists in one's life. Don't feel ashamed, but keep your wits about you.

I guess but isn't Dr. Oz just in a different position within the trump administration now?

I am of your same opinion about nicotine, but I will say that the pouches are making my gum receed noticeably after about 1 year of daily use... trying to switch to gum now

It's okay lots of people who believe in God believe they can trick god.

Just listened to the "Search Engine" episode about anthropic that I think came out today? I am happy they stuck to their guns, but also, yeah google, open AI, grok, whatever, will happily do whatever crimes against humanity

Hahahahahahhahahhahahahahhahhaha
