Technology@lemmy.world•Twitter is losing daily active users. CEO Linda Yaccarino confirmed it.English
64·2 years agoWhat the fuck are “unregretted user minutes”? I regret every minute any user spends on that site, so it should be zero.
And twitter. And mastodon. And lemmy ffs, we’re not immune. (I’m doing it right now, in fact.)

Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ@lemmy.dbzer0.com•Is it wrong to pirate movies I've purchased digitally and load onto my Plex server?English
5·2 years agoYou’re asking this in a community that’s specifically about doing piracy. Pretty hard to take your question seriously in this context.

Movies and TV Shows@lemmy.film•Barbie and the conservative outrage machine
533·2 years agoStopped reading at the uncritical use of the word “transgenderism” and the unanalyzed repetition of the falsehood that Budweiser suffered financially from the Dylan Mulvaney thing (it didn’t).
Not sure what fence the author is trying to sit on, but I’ll take my opinion fluff pieces from people who aren’t actively aiding the conservative culture war.
why not just let lose of this crippling desire to align ourselves with some historical identity
Fair enough. Counterpoint: It doesn’t freaking matter what word we use. No matter what the word is, the right will attempt to poison it and stir hatred of it and assign meanings to it that aren’t real. Look at what happened to “woke”. It will keep happening, because the modern right is Fascism, and poisoning language is a fascist tactic that goes back to the very beginning. You call yourself an Anarchist; where on Earth do you live that nobody has negative associations with “Anarchist”.
Use whatever word you want, just use it consistently. Don’t expect it to stay free of propaganda, because they do that to our words on purpose.
Ideas for the new logo? I think he should go with a black-red motif, with lots of right angles.
That’s why they call me Dollar Bill. Because I have one.
This is exactly how I’m tryna be (I live alone in my house with my dog and my $0.003M fortune)

Movies and TV Shows@lemmy.film•‘Barbie’ vs ‘Oppenheimer’: Which Movie Got Better Reviews
5·2 years agoDemographics? That has nothing to do with it. They are different genres, but lots of people like multiple genres. Me, for example. I want to see both. Since I can only sit in one theater at a time, that means they are competing.
Right. Again, though, I don’t recommend having an LLM do that particular chore for you.
I don’t disagree, but most business emails aren’t quite that strict.
Sometimes the only requirement IS to have words on a page. Think about a disaster recovery plan, for example. Now, you probably don’t want an LLM to write your disaster recovery plan, but it’s a perfect example of something where the main value is that you wrote it down, and now you can be certified that you have one.
This is a legitimate use case for LLM, though.
Not everyone can communicate clearly. Not everyone can summarize well. So the panel on the right is great for the people on the other end, who must read your poorly-communicated thoughts.
At the same time, some things must look like you put careful thought and time into your words. Hence, the panel on the left.
And if people on both sides are using the tool to do this, who’s really hurt by that?

Technology@lemmy.world•Over just a few months, ChatGPT went from accurately answering a simple math problem 98% of the time to just 2%, study findsEnglish
04·2 years agoBro I wasn’t looking for a technical explanation. I know how they work. We made computers worse. The thing isn’t even smart enough to say “I wasn’t designed to do math problems, perhaps we should focus on something where I can make up a bunch of research papers out of thin air?”



This feels tantalizingly close to the truth.
