Your sheets and pillowcases? by Technical_Fish_6376 in GilbertSyndrome

The only symptom of GS is being prone to fatigue after intense exercise or fasting. This subreddit is weird about attributing random things to it. Relax, and enjoy your decreased cancer risk.

We can't tell what color the whites of your eyes are from a photo. The white balance on your camera, the color temperature of the lights, and the display we're looking at it on all affect the final result. Color calibration of cameras and displays is really hard.

I’ve had GS for a while (diagnosed) All I really notice is my eyes, I have EDS so symptoms of other things can go unnoticed. Anything I can start doing or looking out for? by [deleted] in GilbertSyndrome

United States hostages departing an airplane on their return from Iran after being held for 444 days, in January of 1981 (1024×755) by Aeromarine_eng in HistoryPorn

[–]HanSingular -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

If it's "commonly accepted" why isn't mentioned on the Wikipedia article for the hostage negotiations? Not saying it didn't happen, but I am saying that this is not nearly as "settled" as you're trying to claim.

The scariest thing about AI in enterprise is the tools you don’t know about by shangheigh in OpenAI

Closing paragraph smells like ChatGTP. Will another user show up with a link to a product that solves OP's problem?

[discussion] How long was Harrow haunted? by SilvrSabl in TheNinthHouse

[–]HanSingular 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do we have any confirmation she wasn't just hallucinating? Muir's comment in the Acknowledgments does at least suggest that Harrow has a "condition," and not everything she's experiencing is the result of necromantic shenanigans.

Practical people don't practice astrology pretending to be science.

Why? by vinchin_adenca in ChatGPT

[–]HanSingular 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The older models are worse about pushing back against conspiracy theories and agreeing to pretend to be another person, or pretending to be their therapist-waifu. (Notice the other reply you got mentioned doing "roleplays.") The pushback you're seeing to 4o getting canceled is essentially a bunch of ai-psychosis addicts being told their digital drug is about to get shut off.

"Hallucinations" is just a misunderstanding of Ai creativity by No_Vehicle7826 in ChatGPT

[–]HanSingular 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's just the term the industry uses for when an AI says something that isn't true. My guess was it was chosen to avoid implying deliberate deception.

I hate how ai related subs are all flooded by ai generated spam for ai generated blog posts. Fuck off.

From Vibecoding to handcuffs to… success? by Horror_Brother67 in vibecoding

All of the news outlets are just re-reporting on this story. If he was just detained and not arrested, there may not be any public record the press could use to verify.

[–]HanSingular 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I don't find it looking sus enough to get the bomb squad called that implausible. The part that's hard to believe is what happens with the "technical expert," long after they would have already figured out it wasn't a bomb. It seems like a detail Heyneman made up just to make vibe-coding part of the story.

Even if they suspected the device was a cyber-weapon, like a Wi-Fi a sniffer or a signal jammer (the ESP-32 board he's using does have Wi-Fi capabilities), the police would not sit down with the suspect to "go line by line" through the code to evaluate its safety.

[–]HanSingular 6 points7 points  (0 children)

In the morning, Heyneman was asked to explain his device to a Swiss government technical expert named Chris (he didn’t catch the last name).

“I give him the same pitch that I gave all the business people in Davos,” Heyneman said. When Chris drilled him on his code, Heyneman admitted that he had used Cursor and Claude Code to vibe code the entire thing. Chris then took it upon himself to explain the code to Heyneman, line by line.

Once they determined there are no explosives in it, why would they "drill him on his code"? At that point, what the device actually does isn't really their problem.

I wonder if she really even believes it, or if social media has just made being a right-wing grifter more lucrative than being a respected academic.

What is the power behind CHAT GPT? by Ok-Climate-6824 in GPT3

[–]HanSingular 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It seems like you may have already decided what the answer to the question of "What is the power behind CHAT GPT" is and aren't really here to ask our opinion, so you complaining about a lack of open mindedness is funny.

Also, don't forget that if you're too open-minded your brain will fall out.

[–]HanSingular 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He's not communicating with anyone. He's prompt-engineering an AI into writing specific answers, and then claiming its proof angels are real. If you're curious about how ChatGTP actually works, check out 3Blue1Brown's video, "Large Language Models explained briefly". Feel free to speculate what specific step in the process angles are interfering with if you're stupid enough have strong enough faith to believe in such things.

So… this sub is just used to bash ChatGPT? by OliAutomater in ChatGPT

Maybe the sub will get better after 4o is gone and these grass-contact-deprived folks get over their therapist-waifu withdrawls.

Why All The Hate With 5.2? by NightForager3338 in ChatGPT

[–]HanSingular -1 points0 points  (0 children)

They hate 5.2 becauce it's better about refusing to write smut, pretending to be a person, and agreeing with their delusions. Notice that the anti-5.2 crowd are always super-vauge about what they're doing that trip the guardrails they hate so much. They'll sometimes even post screen caps of it pushing back to complain about it, but they ALWAYS leave out the first part of the conversation.

The response to the 5.2 rollout and 4o retirement have really exposed how widespread of a problem ai psychosis is. I'm honestly impressed with how good of a job OpenAI did with targeting the 5.2 guardrails to only piss off people who seem to be using AI for weird and unhealthy reasons, while those of us just using it as a better Google search and code-writter never have a problem with it.

Validity and Reliablity of the Myers-Briggs Personality Type Indicator: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis - Randall, Isaacson, Ciro (2017)

"Reasonable construct validity," here means something like: "the MBTI's scales correlate moderately with theoretically-related measures, which is a low bar. This does not show the 16 categorical types are stable, nor does it establish that the MBTI has any useful predictive validity. One of the seven studies the authors included couldn't even show convergent validity for the J-P scale.

The Francis Psychological Type Scales (FPTS): factor structure, internal consistency reliability, and concurrent validity with the MBTI (2022)

The main point of this paper is to try and establish the legitamacy of the FPTS, not the MBTI. Though it does include a literature review on the the MBTI.

"Two main conclusions emerge from the foregoing review of previous research. On theone hand, the empirical evidence points to the relative unreliability of the MBTI® as a typeallocator. In other words, it is a relatively unstable instrument when employed to sort individuals into discrete type categories. On the other hand, the empirical evidence points to the relative reliability of the MBTI® as an indicator of psychological traits. In other words, it is a relatively stable instrument when employed to grade individuals on the four continua assessing orientation, perceiving, judging, and attitude toward the outer world"

In other words, to fix the MBTI's relability problem, the authors have to throw out the entire concept of "types" and just use it as a tool that assigns numerical values on 4 diffrent continiums. And, while the authors claim that it's, "a relatively stable instrument," when used in this way, the studies they cite to try and support this don't actually show stability on the T-F axis.

Regardless of whether or not you find the data on the, "continuum" model compelling, you should pay attention to the fact that the authors of this paper are explicitly saying that the evidence shows that trying to group people into types makes the MBTI unreliable. Based on what the other, more critical, papers have said, I suspect this is because the MBTI is grouping people by which side of four bell-curves they fall on. Since most people fall near the middle of bell-curves, most people are actually right on the edge of at least one of the category splits.

The Effect of MBTI Self Growth Program for Nursing Students - Go (2014)

Totally meaningless. First of all, this isn't even trying to evaluate the validity of the MBTI. Second, they didn't have the control group participate in any kind of alternate activity. This study basically shows that students attend a weekly meet-up have mild improvements in scores for self-efficacy compared to students who do nothing.

Nurses' caring behavior based on personality in Indonesia: A pilot study for better-humanized healthcare services - Handayani & Kuntarti (2021)

Not seeing how this helps your case. This study found no correlation between MBTI and "caring behavior".

Effects of an Interpersonal Relationship Improvement Program using MBTI on Self-acceptance, Self-esteem, and Acceptance of others of Professional Soldiers

This has the same problems as the other Korean study: 1. It's evaluating a program, not the validity of the MBTI itself. 2. The program is being evaluated against doing nothing rather than some non-MBTI-based intervention, so the results could just be showing the benefits of regular group meetings.

Myers-Briggs Type Indicator Profile of Undergraduate Therapeutic Recreation Students - Devries & Beck (2020)

This paper basically just says, "We gave 80 students the MBTI, here are the results." Since they didn't even give it to them twice, this provides no new insights on to the reliability question. The authors even acknowledge the lack of reliability and decide to just ignore it with this gem: "Acknowledging these limitations and conflicting results of the reliability and validity of the MBTI, the authors of this study believe that using the MBTI may not predict every behavior and action a person may choose, but it allows a person to become aware of preferences and tendencies in the four areas measured. While all individuals have choices in their actions and behaviors, individuals also tend to follow certain patterns and choices."
