He wasn't some revolutionary, though... he'd just watched Taxi Driver about fifteen times and wanted to impress Jodie Foster (who, it must be noted, was twelve when shooting the film, and barely eighteen when Hinckley shot Reagan).
I very much doubt he'd have become an idol, given that.
he almost saved America
It would have been entirely accidentally, though.
He didn't shoot Reagan for being Reagan, he shot him because he wanted to impress Jodie Foster after developing an obsession with her (who'd been twelve when filming and was eighteen at the time of the attempt on Reagan's life) after watching Taxi Driver about fifteen times.
He didn't shoot Reagan for any of the billions of reasons Reagan deserved to be shot for, though... he did it as an attempt to impress Jodie Foster after developing an obsession with her after watching Taxi Driver about fifteen times.
It's important to note that Foster had been twelve when shooting the film, and that even the deranged and mentally ill protagonist of said film abandons any sexual interest on her character the instant he becomes aware of her age, despite her being a child prostitute, and that the character said protagonist was trying to impress by shooting a politician was in her twenties (Foster was barely eighteen when Hinckley shot Reagan).
No, I'm not db0, but thanks for the compliment. 😅
I'm way too lazy (and broke) to set up and admin a Lemmy instance.
We're talking about LLMs. They're useless for most practical applications by definition.
And when they're not entirely useless (basically, autocomplete) they're orders of magnitude less cost-effective than older almost equivalent alternatives, so they're effectively useless at that, too.
They're fancy extremely costly toys without any practical use, that thanks to the short-sighted greed of the scammers selling them will soon become even more useless due to model collapse.
If they still profit from it, no.
Open models made by nonprofit organisations, listing their sources, not including anything from anyone who requests it not to be included (with robots.txt, for instance), and burdened with a GPL-like viral license that prevents the models and their results from being used for profit... that'd probably be fine.
If you do crime big enough, it becomes good.
No, no it doesn't.
It might become legal, or tolerated, or the laws might become unenforceable.
But that doesn't make it good, on the contrary, it makes it even worse.
OS vendors aren't selling¹ what users copy into the clipboard.
¹ Well, Microsoft probably is, especially with that recall bullshit, and I don't trust Google and Apple not to do it either... but if any of them is doing it they should get fined into bankruptcy.
It's an LLM. Odds are it's hallucinating the sources and they don't even exist.
Know what does compile sources for you which are guaranteed to exist and be related to what you're looking for..? A good old not LLM infected search engine.
If my plumber replaces their wrench for a rabid gerbil claiming it'll be just as good I'm definitely changing plumbers.
