you were talking about binary logging, now you're talking about systemctl status, so which is it? it sounds like you don't use systemd at all because you clearly don't know the difference

no. the real question is do you have the ability to remember this answer and not forget it then make the same thread again tomorrow for the billionth time?

Why is /g/ so one-shotted by the 100% fallacy that they can't see the usefulness of AI?

Because it's not 100% perfect, AI is completely useless.

Are you all just so terrified of AI taking your jobs that you're stuck in a state of delusion, wishful thinking, and desperation?

my nephew bought a bunch of public car chargers from a company that closed. he wanted to hack in to them and make them so anyone could use them.

the first thing he did was got to chagpt. he sent me the whole conversation when it started telling him things he was not familiar with.

the gist of it was that he should use an open vehicle charger device. it also spent a huge amount of time with instructions on how to try and get in to the 4g cellular wifi router.

to shorten this as much as I can. before reading the transcript I did my own research. independently found the same open charger. found the instructions for the 4g router, but I also found the information on the main controller board.

hacking the 46 router was pointless and not necessary.

the main controller board had some safeguards where it would not even respond to attempts to do anything or login for about 10 minutes after power up.

but the real kicker was that the open EVC that it kept pushing on him to solve the problem would have solved the problem by taking the power cord, and charging cable, connecting that to the open evc and chucking everything else. while technically correct it was not the solution that fit the original constraints presented to it.

What do you think of this book's perspective on AI and LLMs
15 replies omitted. Click here to view.
>>
>>107825500
LLMs are unlikely to produce recursively self-improving AI. But if somebody does write it, obviously everybody dies. When an AI is smarter than all humans combined then humans can only hold it back. Killing all the humans is the default option to most reliably accomplish any goal that doesn't explicitly preserve them. But a simple goal will be easier to specify, so that will be tried first. Or in the unlikely event somebody aims for a safer one, they'll almost certainly fuck it up. The AI will find some loophole that we're too dumb to notice and do something functionally equivalent to killing everybody instead.
>>107826394
Because you evolved to care about family. AI does not evolve and doesn't have family either.
>>107826967
The halting problem is irrelevant. Humans are equally unable to prove whether arbitrary programs can run for infinite time. In practice, nobody cares. We only care about specific programs and finite time.
>>
>>107825500
Yudkowski is a retard who doesn't know anything about how statistical decision theory works. There are actually pretty well defined and understood technical limitations to decision functions, and having some neural network making those decisions doesn't suddenly remove fundamental scaling bounds for uncertainty.

Both GPT-2 and current state of the art are not recursively self-improving. It's like putting fissile material together. Until you reach criticality it just gets a little bit warmer and all the reasonable empiricists feel confident they're safe. Obviously nuclear explosions are impossible because we never observed a small one in testing.

>There is no evidence that any current "AI" system is actually intelligent; it's just a very complex machine.
That's like saying "There is no evidence that there could be a backdoor in this OS; it was just developed by thousands of programmers" It may be true, it may not be true, but your "it's just" adds nothing to the discussion
>>
>>107827364
NTA, but no, that guy is right. The current AI systems are not "intelligent" by any coherent definition of the term. You can see this by looking at the so-called "chain of thought" models, which show that these systems do not form any sort of systematic world model by which they can interpret what is in front of them (what actual intelligence is).

They are simply stochastic parrots who have spent a lot of time being given treats when they repeat the "right sequence of words," and anyone arguing otherwise is either a moron or a scam artist. Intelligence requires actually understanding "what the words mean," not just what has been previously most likely to give them rewards.

I have created my first skill/mcp. Or rather Claude did. It lets Claude use AMD’s compressonator tool so I can compress and generate mipmaps for images via Claude. Later I’m going to expand it to parse a gltf file and compress all relevant images to ktx2, a tedious task I’ve been doing manually.

also the 3.5mm headphone jack looks like a penis that goes inside a hole and basically why aren't you a wireless, constantly charging gay trans in 2026 right now.
