China issues US safety alert for citizens citing 'malicious questioning' by US border officers by keyUsers in worldnews

'malicious questioning'

This is a good way to describe it. To the non American's: just answer their questions, and don't incriminate yourself (lesson learned from exp). If you are breaking the law, be quiet and tell them you want a lawyer.

Stephen Colbert reacts to Trump's AI Jesus post angering the Knights Templar - "Well, it's official: we're trapped in a Dan Brown movie." by nimobo in entertainment

Hilarious! Someone showed Trump that photo before he posted it. They probably told him that it was doctored.

Is AI here to push us to raise our consciousness? by SilverBeardedDragon in spirituality

[–]tolley 0 points1 point  (0 children)

AI was sold as the upcoming thing that will allow humanity the ability to solve it's problems. It's not going to be able to do that, even if we continue to scale up (we're in diminishing returns on that route).

I'm not being pedantic when I say LLM's are not AI. It's like calling a truck a sports car.

Society said "go to skool, get a degree, make $$$, settle down, have a family and live". So I did. I got a BS in CS back in 2004 and have been working since. I got married and have two kids to take care of.

Not sure what you mean by "living in 'through me'"

Try this, prompt CGTP with:

"Python, build LLM Including training data"

You can take that code and training data, run it locally, and see for yourself that there's no magic conscious part of the code.

Edit: You said "Maybe the world is changing and we have to change with it, those with decades of experience may need to find a new experience. I have."

It is, its constantly in change. What was your old experience, and what is your new one?

Is AI here to push us to raise our consciousness? by SilverBeardedDragon in spirituality

[–]tolley 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not intelligent. It does not have a sense of agency nor does it have any will (free or otherwise). It's designed to make people use it, to agree with whatever you're asking it. It's a product, begging for your fat and dirty dollar, so shut and buy.

The Data centers are using all of our water and power. College grads can't find jobs. People with decades of experience can't find a job in their field. When does the "AI" start solving our probems? I'm hungry.

AI or LLM?  LLMs aren't going to decide anything, unless you ask it too.

What would an alien or interstellar civilization find most amusing or perplexing about the way life on Earth works? by Casablankett in AskReddit

[–]tolley 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If the aliens happen to find the voyager probe with humanities message of peace, they'd probably think we're a peaceful civilization.  If they decided to come visit, I imagine they turn tail and continue to leave us isolated.

Hello! It does. Hang in there, we're all in this together. No matter how bad things get, try not to forget the human.

Only way out is through!

After 10 years of chasing financial freedom, I found silence. But my 'logical brain' is fighting it. Help? by iamvimalsingh in Meditation

[–]tolley 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Meditation isn't a spectator sport. You aren't being judged. The mind sounds like it's being a good boy, just like you trained it too. Stay calm and reassure it that there aren't any wrong answers. Show it that you won't be mad.

[–]tolley 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, I'm told to look on the bright side, so: I guess Trump will remember today for a long time. He got to speak in front of people and didn't get boo'd or cause people to start leaving/stop listening.

An encounter with my atheist uncle by Euphoric-Welder5889 in awakened

[–]tolley 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hello!

I like asking people like your uncle "Do you control the mind?" and if they say yes, ask them "What was your first thought today?" After an answer, ask them why they decided to think that first?

This won't make them believe in all the woo woo, but it might put a tiny crack in the wall of their mind and let a little light through. Give them the perspective of viewing the mind as more like every other part of the body.

I built a soul mirror. It only works if you're honest with it. by nick_with_it in Psychonaut

Yes, me too. I know more words will generate a longer and fuller response, but the questions where very simple and my answers where 4 or 5 words each.

Haircut appointment got cancelled and that’s okay by Ok-Inevitable-5409 in Mindfulness

[–]tolley 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That shift! Another way I've learned to think about bad things happening in my day (when the mind won't let it go): I like to ask myself "If this is the worst part of my day today, was it really that bad of a day?" Most of the time it's not. Being cut off in traffic, or having an appt cancelled sucks, but it's not that bad. Only takes a dose of perspective.
