Why don't social media and the web in general implement asymmetric key signing to always be able to verify the source of a content, thus eliminating the risk of deep fakes and fake news?

  • I don't understand how this will help deep fake and fake news.

    Like, if this post was signed, you would know for sure it was indeed posted by @lily33@lemm.ee, and not by a malicious lemm.ee admin or hacker*. But the signature can't really guarantee the truthfulness of the content. I could make a signed post that claiming that the Earth is flat - or a deep fake video of NASA'a administrator admitting so.

    Maybe I'm missing your point?

    • Redshift isn't maintained anymore. what to use?

    Jump

  • It works fine for me on Hyprland.

    • unsafeCode

    Jump

  • That is why I use just int main(){...} without arguments instead.

    • How do I poison pdfs against LLM ?

    Jump

  • I don't think any kind of "poisoning" actually works. It's well known by now that data quality is more important than data quantity, so nobody just feeds training data in indiscriminately. At best it would hamper some FOSS AI researchers that don't have the resources to curate a dataset.

    • Proton's biased article on Deepseek

    Jump

  • What makes these consumer-oriented models different is that that rather than being trained on raw data, they are trained on synthetic data from pre-existing models. That’s what the “Qwen” or “Llama” parts mean in the name. The 7B model is trained on synthetic data produced by Qwen, so it is effectively a compressed version of Qen. However, neither Qwen nor Llama can “reason,” they do not have an internal monologue.

    You got that backwards. They're other models - qwen or llama - fine-tuned on synthetic data generated by Deepseek-R1. Specifically, reasoning data, so that they can learn some of its reasoning ability.

    But the base model - and so the base capability there - is that of the corresponding qwen or llama model. Calling them "Deepseek-R1-something" doesn't change what they fundamentally are, it's just marketing.

    • Proton's biased article on Deepseek

    Jump

  • There are already other providers like Deepinfra offering DeepSeek. So while the the average person (like me) couldn't run it themselves, they do have alternative options.

  • A server grade CPU with a lot of RAM and memory bandwidth would work reasonable well, and cost "only" ~$10k rather than 100k+...

    Jump

  • To be fair, most people can't actually self-host Deepseek, but there already are other providers offering API access to it.

    • OpenAI accuses China’s DeepSeek of unauthorized model training

    Jump

  • Yes, OpenAI wishes everyone else has to have authorization to do model training...

    Fortunately, their ToS don't matter all that much, it's easy to use their model through a third party without ever touching them.

    • China’s DeepSeek AI poses formidable cyber, data privacy threats

    Jump

  • The point of it being open is that people can remove any censorship built into it.

    Jump

  • The particular AI model this article is talking about is actually openly published for anyone to freely use or modify (fine-tune). There is a barrier in that it requires several hundred gigs of RAM to run, but it is public.

    • Since Pi is infinite and non-repeating, would that mean any finite sequence of non-repeating numbers should appear somewhere in Pi?

    Jump

  • It's almost sure to be the case, but nobody has managed to prove it yet.

    Simply being infinite and non-repeating doesn't guarantee that all finite sequences will appear. For example, you could have an infinite non-repeating number that doesn't have any 9s in it. But, as far as numbers go, exceptions like that are very rare, and in almost all (infinite, non-repeating) numbers you'll have all finite sequences appearing.

  • Now, if only the article explained how that killing was related to TikTok. The only relevant thing I saw was,

    had its roots in a confrontation on social media.

    It's says "social media", not "TokTok" though.

  • I'm confused, isn't Fedora atomic immutable? Shouldn't that make it stateless automatically?

    • Reddit keeps taking down this post after it hit 50k upvotes. Other subreddits, like linkedinLunatics keep reposting.

    Jump

  • Why is this downvoted? If it's true it's a valid criticism, and if it's false, I couldn't find a mention of anonymity either.

    • Nextcloud client just deleted all of my files, why did it do this?

    Jump

  • Wary reader, learn from my cautionary tale

    I'm not sure what to learn exactly. I don't get what went wrong or why, just that the files hit deleted somehow...

  • I guess technically that makes them "not in Ukraine", but it is the same war in the end. At least for me that's the important part, not where exactly on the front line they are.
