LLMs Reproduce Human Purchase Intent via Semantic Similarity Elicitation of Likert Ratings
Consumer research costs companies billions annually yet suffers from panel biases and limited scale. Large language models (LLMs) offer an alternative by simulating synthetic consumers, but produce unrealistic response distributions when asked directly for numerical ratings. We present semantic similarity rating (SSR), a method that elicits textual responses from LLMs and maps these to Likert distributions using embedding similarity to reference statements. Testing on an extensive dataset compr…

#PhantastikPrompts 9.10.: "Does your protagonist believe in magic or something similar?"
Although she is a hereditary priestess and avatar of the God, Selchae starts the narrative as a shallow and vain unbeliever. As she gradually comes to inhabit her role, this changes. The God is capable of 'things similar to magic', but I don't think that even by the end of…

Yeah lmao just tested and I don’t even need to reboot the console, just restart the game
Weight data and played days don’t seem to be moved tho, just the rankings
(I do have an even older nnid account that I don’t use anymore, tho that has a different name (just “oldaccound” now) and it didn’t steal any saves)
(I don’t really remember if when moving to Pretendo I moved the mii and created a new similar one for the old account or if it was the other way around and I just created a similar mii to the new one)
(Back then I did try moving the save data between the accounts with a SaveMii, but it didn’t work for Wii Fit U (or for mk8, tho haven’t had issues with that one))

Similarity between the Multibrot set and the Julia set of correspondences at Misiurewicz points

Similarity between the Multibrot set and the Julia set of correspondences at Misiurewicz points
We study the fine structure of the parameter space of the unicritical family of algebraic correspondences $z^r + c$, where $r > 1$ is a rational exponent. Building on Tan Lei's result regarding the similarity between the Mandelbrot set and Julia sets in the quadratic family, we prove that the Julia set of the correspondence is asymptotically self-similar about every Misiurewicz point. Assuming that the transversality condition holds at a Misiurewicz parameter $a \in \mathbb{C}$, we prove that…
