One of our fave local places to go to for a walk in autumn. This year the colors were especially exquisite...
(Beech forests like these covered two thirds of Germany, but by now they've been dramatically reduced, not just due to logging. Also rising temperatures have been increasing their mortality and general vulnerability...)
#SilentSunday

A colorful autumn beech forest in reds, oranges, yellows and greens, illuminated by the afternoon sun. Pines and bushes in the shade in the foreground, cold light there already. In between is a small forest lake, its surface completely still and mirror-like, reflecting the colorful trees. Altogether, the view feels a little like a painting...

For the love fuck, this is meaningless. LLM models can't shut themselves off. They're never "on" in the first place. They don't have physicality or permanence.
It's an algorithm that transforms one state of data into another, and for each invocation needs to be fed the whole conversation again.
Perpetuating the unhinged bullshit that LLMs are somehow sentient is harmful.
Dear journalists, for the love of Carl Sagan's sweater vest get some actual experts to vet claims from the industry or indusry-adjacent sources and clarify your reporting.

This is a weird book because it’s so well-written, darkly witty and clarifying, I can’t stop turning pages, but it also makes me not want to get out of bed. I’m banking on an energizing call to action at the end

The Long Heat: Climate Politics When It’s Too Late, by Wim Carton and Andreas Malm. The cover shows two masked people holding flares on a catwalk above a large rounded gray metal structure, presumably protestors on a piece of oil infrastructure.

The whole thing is optimized for scams, deception and other criminal behavior:
- user interface that deceptively pretends it's a human you're talking to
- claims from companies highly exaggerate capabilities
companies and "experts" constantly hype "AGI" which they (funnily enough) do to both make investors greedier and spread fear and as a distraction because these algorithms can't actually do what they keep promising
- large-scale accounting and financial fraud (e.g. what Nvidia is doing with circular selling)
- biggest case of copyright infringement in history
Note: I think the underlying technology is really cool, and definitely has use cases and can be used for actually good things. But: some technology just has more downsides than upsides, and some should only be used by experts in controlled environments. Leaded gasoline, asbestos and chlorofluorocarbon are also all really cool technology.
In this case perhaps the techology itself doesn't do anything inherently bad, however the people making it are lying about what it can do, the people selling it are motivated purely by greed and the people using it (often forced to do so) are being deceived.
