If Shrek's gonna look at me with that face, my birthday won't be the only thing that's coming. Hubba hubba.

Didn't they just pass a site-wide decision on the use of LLMs in creating/editing otherwise "human made" text?

Why do they need to take the human element out? Why would anyone want them to?

God I hope this isn't the beginning of the end for Wikipedia. They live and die on the efforts of volunteer editors (like Reddit relied on volunteer mods and third party tool devs). The fastest way to tank themselves is by driving off their volunteers with shit like this.

And it's absurdly easier to lose the good will they have than to rebuild it.

Thank you so much for the red circle. I wasn't sure where to look and it made me so scared.

Yes, but here's the trick: No one will be sitting around at the end of your life with a checklist of what you should have accomplished.

While there's a gratification to pushing yourself and your limits, there is also gratification to be found in just being. In enjoying where you are and what you have.

Slow progress is still progress. The ability to do amazing in bursts doesn't mean that you can keep up that effort/quality constantly, which is what many "normies" and authority figures when you're young seem to miss.

You're the one who gets to choose what you try to compete at, and the older I get the more comfortable I am with just competing against my own self. Myself a day ago, a month ago, a few years ago.

Other studies (not all chess based or against this old chess AI) show similar lackluster results when using reasoning models.

Edit: When comparing reasoning models to existing algorithmic solutions.

No, more like "Your marketing team, sales team, the news media at large, and random hype men all insist your orange machine works amazing on any fruit if you know how to use it right. It didn't work my strawberries when I gave it all the help I could, and was outperformed by my 40 year old strawberry machine. Please stop selling the idea it works on all fruit."

This study is specifically a counter to the constant hype that these LLMs will revolutionize absolutely everything, and the constant word choices used in discussion of LLMs that imply they have reasoning capabilities.

I hope things work out with his ms. deep dish.

Didn't work out with "mine" and it just makes it that much harder to stay aware of how hard/deep you're going with future partners when somewhere in the back of your mind is the experience when you didn't have to.

Ah yes, surely "DontMakeMoreBabies" would be the perfect source for all my parenting advice.

Everyone knows that anti-natalists are the best source for parenting advice!

Hey, now it'll work better as a suppository!

Anyone know if this been uploaded to haveibeenpwned or anywhere similar where someone could check if their data is in the leak without tracking down and downloading the whole thing?

Didn't see anything like that in the article.

It was an intentional feature for techs working on the devices.

By the time I was 9, I decided life was not worth living and have not changed my mind at 45 years old. [...] I still feel like no one wants me around.

While this is a side effect of the trauma precipitated by people treating you badly due to your ADHD, and depression is common with ADHD... this level of depression is not inherent to ADHD, and I'd posit that the depression type stuff has more to do with your feelings on children than your ADHD directly does.

I think there's a lot of people choosing not to have children due to depression and other issues of mental health leading them to feel like bringing a child into this world would be cruel.

Mid 30s, ADHD diagnosis when I was six, been on the same meds for it since 18. Medicated for depression starting around a decade ago. Medicated for anxiety for around five years. Narcisist ADHD mother, neglectful ADHD father (both undiagnosed). Grandfather was highly likely autistic.

Two year old daughter and another on the way. Determined not to repeat my parent's mistakes and abuse. Daughter is the light of my life, best decision I've ever made.
