On Discord though there's a lot of unchecked predation. Theoretically if this were implemented it would let them see the most suspicious users that interact with an unusual amount of children and review if the messages are inappropriate.

But all that's unlikely because if they actually cared they'd implement other simpler solutions first. So this idea is just hypothetical but not ideal.

I'm a bit annoyed at all the people being pedantic about the term hallucinate.

Programmers use preexisting concepts as allegory for computer concepts all the time.

Your file isn't really a file, your desktop isn't a desk, your recycling bin isn't a recycling bin.

[Insert the entirety of Object Oriented Programming here]

Neural networks aren't really neurons, genetic algorithms isn't really genetics, and the LLM isn't really hallucinating.

But it easily conveys what the bug is. It only personifies the LLM because the English language almost always personifies the subject. The moment you apply a verb on an object you imply it performed an action, unless you limit yourself to esoteric words/acronyms or you use several words to overexplain everytime.

The gender thing is creepy, but if they could predict age groups then in a perfect world they could analyze adult users talking to children and shut that down.

In a perfect world though, I doubt they'd put effort into making their app safer, heavens no.

I hate that it's links are "incompatible" with Firefox, even though if you trick it into thinking it's Chrome, it works just fine.

Can't wait for FOSS brain implants, it would still be hellish but a fun kind of hellish.

I want someone like Linus Torvalds to verbally abuse someone for not understanding basic computational neuroscience.

At first I found the absurdity silly and amusing.

But then I realized, this is the same demographic that would shoot up a drag show, simply because of men wearing dresses. Now they're wearing diapers in public support of a convicted rapist that shits himself.

As a trans woman, the thought that they would even wear diapers to justify their hatred of me and love for their incontinent idol, it is disgusting. I'm literally nauseous right now, they think people like me are beneath an actual man baby.

The only issues I've had with Firefox is when some websites, like Teams, doesn't "support" it. Even though if you change the browser's identifier (there's an extension for that) then it works fine, they just don't "officially support" it.

Yeah I love Foundry, but I'm convinced the DM needs technical knowledge to use it. I ran a server for non tech savvy DM and it was like working customer service.

With plenty of investment you can get the tabletop to be almost exactly what you want it to be, and for a popular system like 5e you can make it as automated as a Baldurs Gate game. You just need to download a lot of modules to get there and customize a lot of settings. Without that it just becomes a less intuitive Roll20.

And I must stress from experience, never offer to host/troubleshoot a server for someone else, especially if the DM likes to complain or can't handle minor technical setbacks.

I'm curious, is there actually so many 42's in the system? (more than 69 sounds unlikely)

What if the LLM is getting tripped up because 42 is always referred to as the answer to "the Ultimate Question of Life, the Universe, and Everything".

So you ask it a question like give a number between 1-100, it answers 42 because that's the answer to "Everything", according to it's training data.

Something similar happened to Gemini. Google discouraged Gemini from giving unsafe advice because it's unethical. Then Gemini refused to answer questions about C++ because it's considered "unsafe" (referring to memory management). But Gemini thinks C++ is "unsafe" (the normal meaning), therefore it's unethical. It's like those jailbreak tricks but from its own training set.

Culture victory is almost impossible without mods. Even if you get past how cryptic it is, other civs basically have free reign to stall you if they focus at all on culture.

Funny thing is though, I got a culture victory as Gilgamesh... because I nuked Greece. I was going for war victory so it was really funny to launch a nuke at the greek capital then suddenly jump to the culture victory cutscene.

Somewhat related.

I must have heard of the M Night Shyamalan Avatar movie coming out but got confused and saw the blue alien Avatar instead. I was disappointed when I realized but I dodged a bullet.

Edit: For context I was a kid, it sounds weird without that info.
