  • Is there a way for us to complain to wikipedia about this? I contribute money every year, and I will 100% stop if they're stomping more LLM-slop down my throat.

    Edit: You can contribute to the discussion in the link, and you can email them at addresses found here: https://wikimediafoundation.org/about/contact/

  • If we need summaries, let's let a human being write the summaries. We are already experts at writing. We love doing it.

  • Will this prevent them shooting up? Or just cause them to shoot up badly?

  • I want to read his "Meaning of the City" because I just like City theory, but I keep postponing in case it's just Christian morality lessons. The anarchist Christian angle makes this sound more interesting.

  • Debian. You'll have the same (amazing) package manager without the extra ubuntu stuff. Find a desktop manager that supports the stylus (I assume Gnome and KDE Plasma both will support it).

    Just make sure to enable non-free packages.

  • It's nice that you give your kid cigarettes

  • This time we're cheering... but he's correct, so the meme still works structurally.

  • aaaand out the window we go!

  • Even the best ads are slop, just because it's ads. But it's totally legit to probe them for technique, and to also take the job and make it into a work of art (which is ultimately slop because it's ads)

  • Still boring lol. They're on the equivalent of AI slop.

  • I saw tourist@lemmy.world at a grocery store in Los Angeles yesterday. I told him how cool it was to meet him in person, but I didn’t want to be a douche and bother him and ask him for photos or anything.

    He said, “Oh, like you’re doing now?”

    I was taken aback, and all I could say was “Huh?” but he kept cutting me off and going “huh? huh? huh?” and closing his hand shut in front of my face. I walked away and continued with my shopping, and I heard him chuckle as I walked off. When I came to pay for my stuff up front I saw him trying to walk out the doors with like fifteen Milky Ways in his hands without paying.

    The girl at the counter was very nice about it and professional, and was like “Sir, you need to pay for those first.” At first he kept pretending to be tired and not hear her, but eventually turned back around and brought them to the counter.

    When she took one of the bars and started scanning it multiple times, he stopped her and told her to scan them each individually “to prevent any electrical infetterence,” and then turned around and winked at me. I don’t even think that’s a word. After she scanned each bar and put them in a bag and started to say the price, he kept interrupting her by yawning really loudly.

  • It's not necessarily a 1:1 person-replacer. Instead you can squeeze a smaller number of employees to do more work. I suspect artists and animators are losing a lot of work. And we're still in early days. Even if LLMs don't improve much, our implementation will.

  • I read the post, but with this kind of title people actually should just skip the article and ridicule the clickbait title. Because it's intentionally selling the opposite message of the actual post. And that opposite message is not worth reading in detail.
