  • This seems to be a trend everywhere right now. The global order is blowing up, and companies see it as an opportunity to extract regulation rollbacks and handouts. Even if it has nothing to do with national security or sovereignty, like here.

  • Yes, but as a person here it is a bit jarring to be labeled that way, when it does happen. And it feeds into the exact alienation that Danielle Smith won on.

    We all watched the run-up to the Battle River-Crowfoot federal by-election

    The ironic thing being that's a more straight example of Alberta being a conservative wasteland. I had conversations with people from there that started with how much they hated PP, and then seamlessly moved into how to correctly vote for him, with no warning or acknowledgement of the irony. IIRC he won with 80%+.

    Although that also illustrates it's more brand loyalty than genuine regressiveness, even in the most rural areas.

  • Thank you, yes I do. And like I said in OP it seems to be crapping out pretty good at it's current level of ability - maybe it's not a Ponzi scheme, but it is a giant overvalued bubble.

    The internet can't hurt you, you don't have to lie to us. And it kinda pisses me off when people do anyway, because it makes it worse for everyone.

  • You're not the first person who's given me a similar reply on the topic of left-wing infighting, and I'm sure you believe it. Which is sad, because I watch the cycles of purging and grief go around.

  • Ah yes, if you kick everyone else out you can guarantee there's only one toxic person in the room.

    The nice thing about this philosophy is that it's self-limiting, and so I don't have to worry about it.

  • Any comments on how you attempted to lie to us all there? To win an internet argument?

    It is. It's one that has hidden layers, as opposed to a shallow neural net which does not. Shallow neural nets aren't really a thing anymore, so it's usually omitted, but historically things like the perceptron go back further, and they're conceptually simpler to update during training. They also can't really deal with anything nonlinear.

  • And that paper's name? Albert Einstein. I can't find anything on Weizenbaum and Turing authoring together. Weizenbaum seems to have written mostly prose and code, even - he's not really thought of for his mathematical innovations, although obviously math was his original field.

    Back in the 50's people thought conventional algorithms, like everybody here has worked with, were going to reach human intelligence. They could play chess, and chess is smart guy stuff, so obviously recognising a bird should be easy, right? Well, they figured out that wasn't right, and so began the first AI winter.

    The tech of deep neural nets is in fact fairly new. Like, arguably it didn't become a thing until the Cold War was ending, although there were a lot of precursors, and it kind of arrived gradually.

  • Shapeshifting has always sounded like it would be a trip. Teleportation or similar also sounds super fun, and could have actual practical applications.

    I guess you didn't set a limit on how OP it could be, so I could just go for genie wish granting. Although, I can only imagine how zero challenge on literally any activity would fuck with my mental wellbeing.

    Not flying, super strength or laser vision. Too much like tools we already have.
