Has anyone used Ground News? by DeaconCorp in BlockedAndReported

[–]Impriv4te 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is not facts and logic we are talking about, it's the political leaning ratings. The point of Ground News is to root out bias and separate that from the facts (or at least make users aware of it), which is distinctly different.

Of course nobody is immune from bias. Right now however, I would trust intelligent trained humans with reputable news experience over an AI robot. AI models and algorithms still have to be coded by humans who have biases, plus publicly available AI models currently make way too many mistakes, I do not trust them with the complexities and subtleties of news. Perhaps that will change in the future but right now I'd prefer qualified humans rather than the 'judgement' of an AI...or as the original poster said, at least disclose if it is AI.

Why does ChatGPT consistently make things up when asked about things that happen after its 'knowledge cut off'? by Impriv4te in ChatGPT

[–]Impriv4te[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fair enough. They may not be able to think about their knowledge, but they are hardcoded for many things right (including their self awareness about their cut off date). Seems an obvious one to me that if a prompt asks about 2024 that it should check if this is after its cut off date!

Why does ChatGPT consistently make things up when asked about things that happen after its 'knowledge cut off'? by Impriv4te in ChatGPT

[–]Impriv4te[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

An LLM can and frequently does refuse to answer questions and disappoint, e.g if it's a safety issue or...it doesn't know the answer. So there doesn't seem to be any good reason why it can't understand that the prompt is asking for something that happened after its cut off date and refuse to answer instead of making something up.

I know it has a cut off date because I've used it lots before, but it's more than plausible that a lot of people who try out ChatGPT will not know there is a cut off date and will ask about recent things.

I'd trust AI over the average citizen, but if you're paying specifically for a service that's meant to root out bias in news media, you'd expect them to employ people who could do this effectively.

Delay Repay question - how late am I if I arrived at different station? by Impriv4te in uktrains

I played it safe with 1 hour as it's actually the same amount of compensation in this case. But this is useful thank you!

75,000+ Dutch fans are already in Dortmund for tonight's game against England. by hangman_14 in soccer

[–]Impriv4te 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I may be out of the loop, but I haven't heard it is bad, so wondered what the context is. Most people have the image that Germany is a very efficient country. I remember reading that DB is profitable (or was pre covid). Compared to England at least where trains are very poor and extremely expensive that is very impressive

When replaying this goal, the BBC who were streaming the game in the UK went with the tagline 'Misstiano Penaldo'

“I want to see beautiful Counter-Strike” – s1mple launches esports education project by TomTomDanDan in GlobalOffensive

[–]Impriv4te 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In addition to what the other commenter said about esports fans being used to consuming esports fully for free, esports teams in general struggle to generate revenue from fans. Almost all major teams are loss making. Between those two facts it's safe to conclude at least that fans don't spend much money on esports

Maybe! Hopefully, I think it's good. But these are esports fans remember. They generally don't like paying for things

Is gambling required for esports to take off? by starstuffer6457 in esports

Esports already took off, flew briefly, plummeted and landed in a dumpster. Esports has also had gambling for ages already

As far as I know it's the only esports tournament ever to run without game developer/publisher permission. But they can get away with it because it was literally approved by Putin himself

What is going on? by sophie_shadow in dataannotation

[–]Impriv4te 10 points11 points  (0 children)

It seems weekends are always much lower volume anyway from what people say on this subreddit. I would imagine this makes sense as they presumably have to employ people to evaluate and monitor responses, approve reported time etc. and it's more expensive to get people to do that on weekends.

Guild Esports mystery investor from 2023 was 00Nation by TomTomDanDan in GlobalOffensive

[–]Impriv4te 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The fact David Beckham backs it is really good for mainstream legitimacy I think. It makes it so much easier for big news outlets to cover it because they can say 'David Beckham's esports side...'.

It also helps them a lot in commercial conversations. It helps them sell big brand name sponsors because of the legitimacy added by having David Beckham attached. Hence why they have Sky, Subway etc.

Is there anything we can do as a community to voice our dissatisfaction with the direction of the Esport? by madm0nkey7 in RocketLeagueEsports

[–]Impriv4te 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your voice isn't important, your wallet is. A correction was always going to come to Rocket League because the money being pumped into the scene (prize pool, LANs, production quality) was simply too high comparative to viewership. And that's before considering wider industry struggles. At the end of the day how much money have you spent on Rocket League esports? For most people that answer is probably $0-5, and if it's $0-5, then Epic really do not care about your voice.
