If the state can incentivize charity to negate the effects of capitalist naked self interest, why can't the state just... help directly?

That you can't read.

The information it generates comes from the model. The information from the model comes from the internet. The information it generates does not come from the internet. A to B to C, not A to C. I don't know how to explain this more simply without crayons, the information from the internet does not exist within the model, but the average of the information can be recreated by the model. That is not what a fucking search engine does. A search engine doesn't tell you the average results for your query, it gives you the most relevant results. At least, they should and used to. I can understand the confusion if you've only used a search engine in the past 3 years.

ChatGPT is not a search engine, it generates predictions on what is the most likely text completion to your prompt. It does not pull information from a database. It is a mathematical model. Its weights do not contain the training data. It is not indexing anything. You will not find any page from the internet in the model. It is all averaged out and any niche detail is lost, overpowered by more prevalent but less relevant training data. This is why it bullshits. When it bullshits it is not because it searched for something and came up empty, it is because in the training data there simply was not a sufficient number of occurrences of the answer to influence its response against the weight of all the other more prevalent training data. ChatGPT does not search anything.

The electricity would be better spent on heat pumps. Computers convert 100% of their electricity into heat. Heat pumps convert 200-400% of their electricity into heat.

(I'm being lose with my wording for brevity's sake)

 

I don't mean this in a nebulous sense, like that it's hard to find where things are.

But like, i find scrolling just has too much friction, especially with my small thumbs where i do a lot of flicking rather than sliding.

Anyone else find this?
