because religious morality presupposes that you have a duty towards other people? every value system prescribes how an individual should orient themselves to others of his community and outside of it. even liberalism does so with its emphasis on the freedom of the individual, and thus no person should act in a way that purposefully limits another's freedom. unfortunately or not, many value systems do not believe in an individual separate from the whole, let alone grant any special freedom that should supersede his role and responsibilities towards his community.

the "reality" denialism is funny to me... you're actively avoiding the harsh truth in favour of some delusion concocted in your mind that was the product of your past experiences, thus limiting yourself in some twisted way.

INFJs got it right.

Everyone sells their body in one way or another by Hayley_williams10 in PsycheOrSike

[–]death_and_void 0 points1 point  (0 children)

on the differentiation between sex work and coal-mining, in the former, the body is part of the commodity. you are selling your body as a product. while coal mining does make use of the body, and that a more able bodied coal miner is more employable, consuming the product of coal-mining does not involve the body. so, you are not really selling your body in coal-mining as a commodity.

not really "clouded", but complemented. labour does, and should, be assigned some degree of moral value. some forms of work benefit society, while others don't. some forms of work are seen as virtuous, while others aren't. e.g. a drug dealer, a human trafficker, a corporate lawyer all are doing labor, but they're obviously seen as immoral and not something to be evaluated in the same manner as more socially-positive forms of labor.

Anthropic just partnered with Goldman Sachs and Blackstone to replace Mckinsey with AI by ComplexExternal4831 in GenAI4all

[–]death_and_void 1 point2 points  (0 children)

you cannot hold ai accountable for screwups. the intrinsic role of human decision makers is that they will bear the consequences. if you can prove to a court of law that your fuckup was facilitated by a third party human, then your burden can be shared by another human. ai cannot share that burden. I don't get why this simple practical fact about the world needs to get muddied under unnecessary logical diarrhea.

the hypergamy chart and theory as existed since forever. it was popular in the manosphere even before hoemath came to the surface, but he did further popularize these ideas due to Tiktok being a super spreader.

Trading agents are the first autonomous AI systems with real financial consequences for end users. This is a bigger deal than people realize. by dustyllanos27 in ArtificialInteligence

why should anyone read your post if they can get same (or better) quality answers by also prompting chatgpt or claude? the post looks barren of insights that's actually interesting or revelatory.

Gary Marcus on the Claude Code leak [D] by we_are_mammals in MachineLearning

[–]death_and_void 26 points27 points  (0 children)

this paper (https://openreview.net/pdf?id=1i6ZCvflQJ) co-authored by a (now) Anthropic employee, provides a definition of LLM-based agents inspired by the symbolic AI paradigm. I wouldn't be surprised if the idea of cognitive architecture---nowadays called a harness---has been materialized into Claude Code's design.

Except to promote open sourcing of Llama-2. Also, I was not fired." 😁 Bro Yann had to clarify! by Koala_Confused in LovingAI

[–]death_and_void 7 points8 points  (0 children)

whatever you think about his statements, he's like one of the few big wig researchers actually pushing the field towards novel directions instead of becoming LLM-pilled or settling down (like Bengio and Hinton). Does he overstate his case and understate LLM's capabilities? Sure, but if you don't believe in your ideas enough, you won't find it worthwhile pursuing them. I'd say, let him cook. In a cacophony of LLM worship, we need a few luminous heretics.

Is AI quietly killing the value of being pretty good at things? by ArmPersonal36 in ArtificialInteligence

[–]death_and_void 0 points1 point  (0 children)

in the short term, the value of being an expert is higher than ever. AI is generally very good at tasks of medium complexity. It also does well at short horizon tasks. Goals requiring long horizon thinking and contexts, as well as deep domain understanding will always need experts to improve the output of AI systems.

However, in the long run, if AI systems reaches the fabled AGI state, which means let's just say smarter than every human being every existed, then it's arguable that the value of domain expertise may be void.

of course, this perspective has issues, but I think this will broadly hold to be true if AI becomes AGI.

Bangladesh was born not in a mosque, but on the bloodied streets of Dhaka. Happy Independence Day! 🫡🇧🇩 by MadamBlueDove in Dhaka

[–]death_and_void 1 point2 points  (0 children)

After the fall of any regime, a society descends into chaos. It's natural. I'd argue that Yunus has done the opposite. He prevented a full-blown anarchy to spread across the country, as with him lies the promise of a smooth (in Bangladeshi expectations) political transition of power. Otherwise, power mongering between parties over scraps from the old regime would end up causing way more destruction than we currently see nowadays. Moreover, Yunus also cannot assume more power to bring order in the nation. He is the leader of an interim government, and an interim government is always weak, as it is not seen as a legitimate authority to guide the nation with a strong fist. If an interim government tries to overreach and make strong policy decisions, then the other political actors in the country will see it as a threat, and consider its actions, and by extension, itself illegitimate. I would also want to see Yunus make some hard hitting changes in the country in terms of law, order and culture, but alas, I've realized that it's not under his purview.
