The problem is it's an arms race! Stop treating LLMs like their existence is the problem and start viewing it via the lens of war:
The enemy has lots of badly-behaving LLMs! Marketers, scammers, and lazy management are equipped with Big AI brand LLMzookas that are sending hallucinations our way!
Captain: "So what do we do about it?"
Soldier: "Captain, there's FOSS LLMs that we can deploy! We can use them to defeat the enemy's bullshit slingers! They can be used to search the web on our behalf to filter out hallucinations and advertisements disguised as content! We can set them up to monitor enemy deployments and analyze intelligence to find the truth and stop propaganda in its tracks!"
Captain: "...but can FOSS AI generate boobs‽"
Soldier: "Sir, FOSS has already surpassed commercial AI in that front of the war."
Captain: "We need to deploy FOSS AI ASAP!"
Brush the chips off before they go into the MRI then!
That doesn't seem like much of a cheat. That's more like a crutch.
Apparently Italians don't give a fuck.
Not a damned thing in that article had anything at all to do with "chatbots".
If extraterrestrial, sapient alien life has been discovered here on Earth by the US government it was probably uncovered via signals intelligence gathering. Not via any sort of physical interaction or visual observation.
Everyone thinks that to find aliens you need to search the skies, looking for visual evidence or radio patterns. No one bothers to think that a mass surveillance network across the globe would pick it up first—from local sources. Meaning: They're already here and could have been for hundreds of thousands of years (or longer).
There's probably an autonomous alien monitoring station broadcasting information about Earth on the regular. Probably more than one.
Exactly the type of thing that would be investigated by signals intelligence analysts who spend their days trying to figure out, "WTF was that?" Looking at data gathered from all over the world (for spying reasons).
That's why Obama would laugh at the question of, "where are the aliens?" Because he wouldn't know! He'd just know that they're here... Somewhere. Probably just super advanced machines, connected to a quantum-level universe-wide network.
The real question to ask is, "are they enjoying our memes?"
Simple: Exfat does not support symbolic links. So every file that's just a symbolic link on your btrfs filesystem is getting copied in full (the link is being resolved) to your Exfat drive.
Solution: Don't use Exfat. For backups from btrfs, I recommend using btrfs with compression enabled.
Also don't forget to rebalance your btrfs partitions regularly to reclaim lost space! Also, delete old snapshots!
Articles like this are really just propaganda (wishful thinking) trying to soften the blow of Baumol's Cost Disease:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baumol_effect
Industries that benefit heavily from automation reduce costs over time. Industries that rely heavily on services (that require people to perform them) increase costs over time.
If you can somehow convert a big chunk of your economy into services from automated production, you can smooth out the difference in that economic curve. In theory, that means the rich (capitalists) can continue to get richer while everyone else's salaries flatten out.
It's total bullshit. The only logical end result of such a situation is the rich getting eaten sooner rather than later.
Smart rich people are (right now) lobbying to get their taxes increased to pay for a better social safety net. Stupid rich people are lobbying for bullshit like converting everything into a subscription economy.
Folks here jest, but this business model is coming to PCs next. Bookmark my words!
(Literally, you can right-click the perma-link to this message and have quick access to it later so you can reply, "Damn, you were right!" And post the link to big PC vendors suddenly offering a similar services because DRAM and GPUs have become so expensive, normal people can't afford to buy PCs anymore)
It's also pig-headed!
Just think: Without legislation like this, kids will be able to see people having sex! Thus, ending their lives. Not so different from staring into the eyes of Medusa!
The amount of children exposed to sex that have died—or suffered worse consequences like early onset conservatism—may have been zero so far but the dangers are clear! We must skip right over parental involvement in child rearing and go straight to the source of the problem: Computers.
Computers have been giving everyone access to too much information for too long! We must restrict it! The first step is to get an implementation that actually works to censor information—to save the children (wink wink)—then later, we will have the tools necessary to censor whatever we want!
When glorious dictator decides that information about trans-genic mice must be erased from the Internet, we shall have the power to do so!
