  • Fun fact (eh…more like barely recollected memory, likely to be wrong to some extent) -

    The tires on those big ass haul trucks are seriously dangerous as they reach end of life - a blowout on something that size is real violent. Far as I know, they’ve got a ton of instrumentation these days to keep track of conditions and remaining life, etc.







  • I’m fairly strict about content and usage with mine, and she plays the heck out of Roblox. I’ve played with her. This has not been my experience at all.

    I’ve heard there are some SERIOUSLY dangerous people / groups on the platform, but that’s true everywhere to some extent and we haven’t had issues. I don’t think I’ve ever come across something inappropriate, in fact. What makes you say it’s a cess pool of porn and Nazi shit? Not attacking you, genuinely just want to know for my / our benefit.

    And this is the heart of our predicament - the ones in control understand this. If they keep our misery at a low simmer they get to extract everything from us, slowly, we won’t revolt. I worry that our only hope may be that they miscalculate and the pot boils over. I really don’t want that, but I’m having a harder and harder time imagining real improvements anymore.


  • Not the person you replied to, but I think you’re both “right”. The ridiculous hype bubble (I’ll call it that for sure) put “AI” everywhere, and most of those are useless gimmicks.

    But there’s also already uses that offer things I’d call novel and useful enough to have some staying power, which also means they’ll be iterated on and improved to whatever degree there is useful stuff there.

    (And just to be clear, an LLM - no matter the use cases and bells and whistles - seems completely incapable of approaching any reasonable definition of AGI, to me)
