How to prevent LGBT people from entering into your oh-so-friendly (but not to LGBT) and oh-so-welcoming-all-differences (but not LGBT), "no longer fear the opinion of others" (unless you're LGBT), "love yourself as you are" (unless you're LGBT), "respect the others" (unless they're LGBT), "class differences are forgotten and we live in harmony, with serenity and liberty" (except for LGBT) establishment in a country where discrimination against LGBT is illegal?
It's very simple! Instead of introducing any anti-harassment policies preventing harassment of people for not being cishet, say that "no dubious attitudes likely to disturb children" are allowed and that violators will be removed. Queerphobic parents "oh no, my kid just learned that not everybody are cishet" will do your work for you!

I knew that even in "progressive" countries trans people are not allowed into gender-segregated spaces. But learning that LGBT people are not allowed into ordinary non-segregated places, in fucking 2023, in fucking Western Europe, is something new.

“#ChatGPT can pass exams that a majority of students can't"

i think this says more about how our education relies on non-introspective reproduction of information than it says about the future of computing

like, it just shows that our education systems are incompatible with actual humans when a computer is better at it?

Systematical indoctrination of young kids in Russia. Hate is planted in their brain at an early age.

"A Kokhol is more stupid than a crow, but more cunning than a devil."

Khokhol is an ethnic slur used by Russians to make Ukrainians seem subhuman or stupid.

Looks like @TheTweedmeister has delivered again with more goodies for the #Liminal #ttrpg arriving today via All Rolled Up.

What does feel realistic is training these models to be MUCH better at providing useful indications as to their confidence levels

The impact of these problems could be greatly reduced if we could counteract the incredibly convincing way that these confabulations are presented somehow

I also think there's a lot of room for improvement here in terms of the way the UI is presented, independent of the models themselves

I agree that confabulation/hallucination/lying is a huge problem with LLMs like ChatGPT, Bard etc

But I think a lot of people are underestimating how difficult it is to establish "truth" around most topics

High quality news publications have journalists, editors and fact checkers with robust editorial processes... and errors still frequently slip through

Expecting a LLM to perfectly automate that fact checking process just doesn't seem realistic to me
