They're reinventing fax-spam.

Best get their money before it disappears then.

Indeed. I've been watching a number of evaluations of different LLMs, where people give it a set of problems and then evaluate the results. The number of times I've seen "Well it got that wrong, but if we let it re-evaluate it, it gets it right". If that's the case, the model is useless. You have to know the right answer before you can ask the model for an answer because the answer you'll get can't be trusted.

Might as well flip a coin.

Before cars were common, despite bicycles, trams, and trains all existing for a long time, our cities were filled with horses. Horses have this habit of shitting everywhere, and cars were welcomed because they made the cities cleaner and less disease ridden.

The horses filled a need that other things could not. Cars then filled that need. That needs still exists today, like it or not. It's best we make them as clean as we can.

When you owe the bank, yes. He owes the state of New York.

Just one source. The New York ruling against him for fraud, plus interest.

Class inequality is not the same thing as anti capitalism. I like capitalism. I see it as a vehicle for those who contribute being rewarded.

We have classist structures outside of more things than business. Politics is the big one, but it's nowhere near the only one. I'm for tearing down those who get power without needing to demonstrate the skill needed to wield it. Those that are given it either through nepotism or cronyism.

I truly believe that the system doesn't care about race or gender or whatever. It cares about looking after it's friends. If you're not in the club you're trodden underfoot. So pitting black against white and man against woman is a distraction. We all need to be fighting together against the "landed gentry".

I don't know much about LLMs but latent diffusion models already have "meaning" encoded into the model. The whole concept of the u-net is that as it reduces the spacial resolution of the image, it increases the semantic resolution by adding extra dimensions of information. It came from medical image analysis where the idea of labelling something as a tumor would be really useful.

This is why you get body dysmorphic results on earlier (and even current) models. It's identified something as a human limb, but isn't quite sure on where the hand is, so it adds one on to what we know is a leg.

You're so close.

Can't fight capitalism without addressing inequalities and fighting for a just society for everyone.

So very close!

No, sometimes they water.
