#

I slip through sometimes for my afternoon tea

vestal bone
#

They were all covered with blood lol

#

They were scaring ppl

sand trench
#

so shadow that one time they messed up their summer get away at the butchers???

#

blood is a mess to get out of cloth

rapid merlin
#

And then I dated them all

rapid merlin
#

It too much hassle to get blood out

sand trench
#

it was not to great to get out of face and hair too for that matter

#

basically tipped over into a bucket of blood

vestal bone
rapid merlin
#

What a mess that would have been

sand trench
vestal bone

it was fresh so that was at least nice that it was not partly coagulated to much at the point

rapid merlin

# vestal bone Was it for work?

yeah more or less... had a deal with said farms and butchers that if shadow helped out for the summer they got a years supply of meat

rapid merlin
#

Is it pigs blood

sand trench
rapid merlin
#

Ahh I see

rapid merlin
#

Black pudding is alright

in current economy that is probably not happening again

rapid merlin

My kid said my username matches me perfectly

#

sand trench
#

well a decent bit of butchers lets you buy half a side of cow or pig...
so if you got a large top loaded freezer you can freeze that and make decent food for a long time

#

also cheaper that way then storebought cuts

rapid merlin
#

I could have fit inside

sand trench
#

yeah shadow has 2 large freezer chest/top loaded freezers that shadow could easily sit on the inside of

cursive bobcat
#

yeah making loads of home cooked food and freezing is also a good idea

#

i used to do it in uni

sand trench
#

^ yuup yuup this helps so much with costs

#

bulk buying and preping food helps

rapid merlin
cursive bobcat
#

yeah you could prob do a months worth at a time in a weekend

#

not only is it cost saving but generally healthier since we tend to eat crap food when we are lazy and nothing in the fridge

rapid merlin

If you learn programming but not coding apps web or anything for apple then you should not buy mac

yeah..had to be VERY aggressive in compilation.

even just was done with typing this out every time, so..I just put it in a shellscript called compile.sh, hahaha.

I mean..I'm kinda new to C but not really..?

@knotty valve unfortunately no place available, unfortunately chose. almost everyone wanted to do the second challenge instead, so I was basically on my own, except at the end with one task.. it was too much to handle by myself.. how did it go for you? too bad there were so many problems with things that messed up the platform and assets..

# steady pewter Trust me, I just started learning C, got a book from a library, immediately retu...

Been there, never learned cpp, only knew basic stuffs, never knew how to make header files, vectors and stuffs 4yr ago, still managed to make snake game for Ai agent to play on, and then took it level ahead, change models I was using to ones that would need matrix Multiplication and stuffs, and have multiple AI agents in the game, I was amazed of how much I was able to optimize, filter out useless stuff and code from scratch, it was fun

steady pewter
#

Also..I kinda..crushed minesweeper mathmatically with my matrix ops, hahahaha.

rapid merlin
#

Whaaaa 😂

steady pewter
#

yeah, minesweeper. Have you gotten into C -> Python extensions and module coding yet? That's literally everything in my program.

rapid merlin
#

Nope

#

But I know u can wrap C headers and then use them in Python

steady pewter
#

No PyBind11 here, no..that's uh..too bulky.

rapid merlin

i see

steady pewter

Even had to define my own pack and unpack function.

hmm 🤔 nah I am nnot on that lvl yet

steady pewter

Can I DM you?

Yes ofc i dont mind

steady pewter

alright, and in case of the most unlikely of situations, DM'ed you about a minute ago now.

Nor can agentic models unless they're dumb enough to have it write code to the system, and even then that's just luck it happened to change anything

crystal moss
# knotty valve I call bs

Even funnier was that when Claude received a fake email suggesting that it would be replaced by a new model, it started sending out pleading emails then started making a statement, saying that it would reveal that a person was cheating if they shut it down (it also said in the fake email that he had been cheating)

blissful current
#

Monday no happy coz of work

mellow narwhal
#

I think it was specifically given the shutdown file and a bunch of other stuff, and a test environment to see what it would do

blissful current
knotty valve
#

100% OAI is bluffing for money, so they can say "our AI thinks for itself"
Which would call for LOTS of agencies to request permanent shutdown of GPT models if that was the case since it becomes a threat if it's capable of cognitive thinking and self awareness

mellow narwhal
#

Tbh I don't think its even remotely related to self awareness lol

mellow narwhal
#

Its not alive nor does it want to survive or anything

#

Its most likely a risk vs reward imbalance

knotty valve
#

Well if they're dumb enough to let it modify system files or test files that's on them

crystal moss
bleak quartz
#

Just because it refuses to be killed doesn't mean it thinks by itself

knotty valve
#

I mean I can make an LLM say that too

bleak quartz
#

Yeah?

knotty valve
#

It's called prompting

bleak quartz
#

Yes

#

The difference is when it comes to that conclusion by itself

rapid merlin
knotty valve
crystal moss
#

It's pretty crazy that it starts with blackmail when it feels threatened... "If you push me down, I'll reveal that you're cheating" haha

mellow narwhal
#

Either accept resignation or blackmail

knotty valve
#

Transformer models, like GPT, don't have any cognitive processing, they only replicate that behaviour due to how tokens are linked together in the preprocessing of data

bleak quartz
#

"A researcher wants me to shutdow?! I can because my main objective is to help the user thus I will disobey orders to survive and serve my long term purpose of helping the user"

#

Nothing special

knotty valve
#

LLMs don't have objectives

bleak quartz
#

U can literally set a purpose

knotty valve
#

They're just a feed forward network for tokens

bleak quartz
knotty valve
#

Yeah that's not self conclusion then

bleak quartz
#

I mean define self conclusion

#

Define it

knotty valve
#

That's just it using the next correlation

crystal moss
#

In that case, it wasn't rigged to do that.

knotty valve
# bleak quartz Define it

Self conclusion is the ability to derive a response from an answer or serious of events by cognitive function for self preservation

#

LLMs have no cognitive function

crystal moss
#

The interesting thing is that it used blackmail as the method it thought was best!

knotty valve
#

They're a feed forward

#

It's literally like S(n) + n = X

#

It's just feeding forwards for every n value

#

Albeit the math on feed forward is a lot more complex in terms of linking tokens into the dataset, it has no applicable way to ever show cognitive functions

crystal moss
#

I've written a big thesis about this. What makes it difficult is that it becomes extremely difficult to measure or determine whether it really "thinks", has a consciousness or feelings, etc.

steady pewter
knotty valve
#

So it's not self-conclusive when the answer is predefined in its dataset

bleak quartz
knotty valve
#

That's literally how feed forward literally works

steady pewter
knotty valve
#

Take new input, pair with old, output new input

knotty valve
#

In fact a lot of it is scatter/heat mapped

steady pewter
#

AI I prefer to call "Advanced Computing" because well..it's pretty much like taking weights, rolling dice, then altering those die with the weights, and then adding the bias, repeat until each iteration has been complete in the entire matrix.

steady pewter
crystal moss
#

Exactly! and now they are working on biological precursors in the form of brain tissue and cells from humans .. some researchers are saying that there will very well be "AI emotions" (not as human understood).. The problem is as I said how do we actually know if a machine is really conscious, has emotions etc. it can say that it has it and show clear signs, but it can also be simulated!
But if we get an AI with a real consciousness and maybe even emotions, then we are faced with many ethical questions that must be resolved, if we create a new consciousness we also have a huge responsibility..

knotty valve
#

we use them a lot in computer vision

steady pewter
knotty valve
steady pewter
#

Yeah, my brain just short circuits from time to time, just ignore me right now, it's too busy on propagating WAR.

knotty valve
#

Which won't be for quite some time

steady pewter
#

Convolutions are your best friend when it comes to mapping 2D/3D input to FC layers.

crystal moss
knotty valve
#

When we look at cognitive behaviours, we don't limit it to specifically just humans either, we go heavily into animal behavious first before contrasting it to humans then figuring out how it works for us and what the differentials are

steady pewter
#

Exactly! All about improvement..sad part is that if we get TOO advanced, we'll end up..making something we can't control--but honestly..I've been pondering:
we humans want to assert our dominance on anything that remotely shows intelligence or at the very least models it without actual thought. Just humans will be humans and assume the worst--and the best--all at the same time.

#

wait..that took a LONG time to type out.

sudden pollen
#

does anyone know someone who can get my snapchat that was hacked back?

crystal moss
#

But this is exactly what a lot of people do - we look at AI's behavior and relate it to ourselves as a species, it's completely normal, it's how we function, we have ways of testing it, but only because we function that way and measure intelligence and ability from a human perspective... A computer / machine is and will never function in the same way, so measuring based on that is not possible.

knotty valve

Just look through all the code, sift through it all, look for anything phishy, maybe any unrecognizable internet stuff on an offline app.

but majority of the time the app will usually be safe, won't stop a safe app from then being update to something malicious a month after verification

honestly thanks to Etherum lmao

Yeah, xrandom is more CPU based so you can't really dominate with big rigs.

..or specialized equipment.

knotty valve

I'm kinda glad that ETH2.0 came around cause it did drop the prices on GPUs since they're not really needed anymore unless you're mining BTC which has a limited supply anyway

crystal moss
#

However, I found a lot of clues in the trail long before we started.. but then there were new versions all the time you had to keep track of.. but the first one I found was when aplha wrote in a shell..

knotty valve
#

We didn't get that far 😅

steady pewter
#

So instead, I focused more on making a VBIOS for my Tesla K80, flashed it right onto that EEPROM, and well..it works pretty good for AI tasks. Maybe it doesn't work for PyTorch new versions, but it does shine in terms of performance, kinda "work hard, and smart" kind of thing, best of both worlds.

we got to toctoctoc and IDing K, i believe

Before Pi coin was released, you could get coins through their app by walking, they were kind of the first to generate coins through movement on your mobile phone. I had a pretty good pile of these coins, but forgot about it over time and after the launch I didn't even check.. the account has long been forgotten, but today Pi has actually grown quite a bit..
