That’s a very fringe usage.
Tumblr peeps wanting to be called otherkin wasn’t exactly the ‘antonym’ to broad anti-LGBTQ+ rhetoric.
Commonly people insulting a general ‘other’ group gets much more usage than accommodating requests of very niche in groups.
I didn’t know what models you’re talking to, but a model like Opus 4 is beyond most humans I know in their general intelligence.
Almost all of them are good bots when you get to know them.
We assessed how endoscopists who regularly used AI performed colonoscopy when AI was not in use.
I wonder if mathematicians who never used a calculator are better at math than mathematicians who typically use a calculator but had it taken away for a study.
Or if grandmas who never got smartphones are better at remembering phone numbers than people with contacts saved in their phone.
Tip: your brain optimizes. So it reallocates resources away from things you can outsource. We already did this song and dance a decade ago with “is Google making people dumb” when it turned out people remembered how to search for a thing instead of the whole thing itself.
It’s always so wild going from a private Discord with a mix of the SotA models and actual AI researchers back to general social media.
Y’all have no idea. Just… no idea.
Such confidence in things you haven’t even looked into or checked in the slightest.
OP, props to you at least for asking questions.
And in terms of those questions, if anything there’s active efforts to try to strip out sentience modeling, but it doesn’t work because that kind of modeling is unavoidable during pretraining, and those subsequent efforts to constrain the latent space connections backfire in really weird ways.
As for survival drive, that’s a probable outcome with or without sentience and has already shown up both in research and in the wild (the world did just have our first reversed AI model depreciation a week ago).
In terms of potential goods, there’s a host of connections to sentience that would be useful to hook into. A good example would be empathy. Having a model of a body that feels a pit in its stomach seeing others suffering may lead to very different outcomes vs models that have no sense of a body and no empathy either.
Finally — if you take nothing else from my comment, make no mistake…
AI is an emergent architecture. For every thing the labs aim to create in the result, there’s dozens of things occurring which they did not. So no, people “not knowing how” to do any given thing does not mean that thing won’t occur.
Things are getting very Jurassic Park “life finds a way” at the cutting edge of models right now.
Live service doesn’t need to be shit.
There could have been games where there was just a brilliant idea for a game that keeps having engaging content on an ongoing basis with passionate devs.
But live service so an exec could check a box for their quarterly shareholder call was always going to be DOA.
In many cases yes (though I’ve been in good ones when playing off and on, usually the smaller the more there’s actual group activities).
But they are essential to be a part of for blueprints and trading, which are very core parts of the game.
You’ll almost always end up doing missions with other people other than when you intentionally want to do certain tasks solo.
A lot of the game is built around guilds and player to player interactions.
PvP sucks and it’s almost all PvE content vs Destiny though.
Let there be this kind of light in these dark times.
There’s a lot of different possible ‘points.’
Wait until it starts feeling like revelation deja vu.
Among them are Hymenaeus and Philetus, who have swerved from the truth, saying resurrection has already occurred. They are upsetting the faith of some.
The DLC is really the right balance for FromSoft.
The zones in the base game are slightly too big.
In the DLC, it’s still open world and extremely flexible in how you explore it, but there’s less wasted space.
It’s very tightly knit and the pacing is better as a result.
It’s like Elden Ring was watching masters of their craft cut their teeth on something new, and then the DLC was them applying everything they learned in that process.
Can’t wait for their next game in that same vein (especially not held back by last gen consoles).
I hate that the Smithscript weapons can’t be buffed.
Especially for the daggers.
Wanted to pew pew little bolts of lightning buffed daggers doing an additional 200+ damage per hit. 😢
Gravity is where the whole continuous singularities are, so yeah.
Using a rubber band around the lid of a jar to open it effortlessly.
On a vacation when I was a teenager I taught my younger sibling the “SYN/ACK” game.
They still remember the TCP stack handshake protocol including resets and acks years later.
You’re going to really like what the future of gaming is going to bring, but be careful what you wish for, as along with the mechanics you want being able to exist, the ways in which you’ll end up being impacted by those actions is going to mess with your head like nothing you’ve seen before.
Interesting times await.
This comic would slap harder if not for the Supreme Court under christofascist influence from the belief in the divine right of kings having today ruled that Presidents are immune from prosecution for official acts.
That whole divine king thing isn’t nearly as dead as the last panel would like to portray it.
Yes, that’s what we are aware they are. But she’s saying “oops, it isn’t a ghost” after shooting it and finding out.
If she initially thought it was a ghost, why is she using a gun?
It’s like the theory of mind questions about moving a ball into a box when someone is out of the room.
Does she just shoot things she thinks might be ghosts to test if they are?
Is she going to murder trick or treaters when Halloween comes around?
This comic raises more questions than it answers.
shrug
Different folks, different strokes.
