The new rules also say you’re not allowed to report content for things that aren’t a violation of the terms of service. So if you report a content for being racist, that’s against the rules.

I think the current batch of AIs and the Kardashians are bad at using language

No, schaudenfreude is an emotion, sadism is a personality trait

Language based AIs will always carry the biases of the language they speak. I am certain a properly trained bilingual AI would be smarter than a monolingual AI of the same skill level

Many languages lack words for certain concepts. For example, english lacks a word for the joy you feel at another’s pain. You have to go to Germany in order to name Schadenfreude. However, English is perfectly capable of describing what schadenfreude is. I sometimes become nonverbal due to my autism. In the moment, there is no way I could possibly describe what I am feeling. But that is a limitation of my temporarily panicked mind, not a limitation of language itself. Sufficiently gifted writers and poets have described things once thought indescribable. I believe language can describe anything with a book long enough and a writer skilled enough.

Language is a method for encoding human thought. Mastery of language is mastery of human thought. The problem is, predictive text heuristics don’t have mastery of language and they cannot predict desired output

We need net neutrality. ISPs should have no say in what kinds of data passes through their system

All 15 of the false positives were black people. That’s why they’re keeping it.

You need to learn some critical race theory. Racist systems turn innocent intentions into racist actions. If a PhD student trains an AI model on only white people because the university only has white students, then that AI model is going to fail black people because black people were already failed by university admissions. Innocent intention plus racist system equals racist action.

Good.

Girls don’t wanna work in CS because CS boys always be treating the class like a hookup scene. And it’s not every boy, but if there’s 2 girls and 20 boys in the class, and 10% of the boys are being creeps, then you’ve already got a problem.

Parents have gotta stop teaching their sons to see class as a dating opportunity. On campus, sure, but not in the classroom.

It’s a bot that allows multiple people sharing an account to appear as though they each had their own pfp and username, using webhooks. It’s mostly used by plural systems, which are groups of people who live in the same head. You assign a proxy to each member, which might be something like prefacing your message with a certain emoji, and whenever you type a message using that proxy (prefacing with that emoji), PluralKit deletes your account’s message and gets a webhook with a name and pfp of your choice to re-send the message. The bot makes it way easier to talk to a plural system and know who’s speaking.

Does Mumble have an equivalent to PluralKit? PK is one of the biggest things keeping me and my friends on discord atm

Glass onion, mate. There’s a human psychological blindness to see the rich as fundamentally competent and smart. To believe there are layers to it. But fundamentally, it’s transparent. It’s just incompetence.
