  2. Fine-Tuning on My Own Commit History: The Model Now Writes Bugs in My Style

    Because when you fine-tune on your own history, you are not training a model to be better than you.

  7. A top superbike reignites debate over #Chinese #innovation
    "innovation activities in #China r still dominated by incremental innovation.. while #basicresearch-based radical innovat'n activities remain insufficient.. ZXMOTO’s 820RR shows high-performance #engineering need not require premium pricing. Though these aren't “zero to one” breakthroughs, they represent an impactful & #practical form of innovation: one tt lowers costs, expands #access & reshapes markets fr w'in"👍

    You stop thinking of it as surveillance. It becomes “the system.” Just part of how things run.

  22. A quotation from Franklin Roosevelt

    To accomplish almost anything worthwhile, it is necessary to compromise between the ideal and the practical.

    Franklin Delano Roosevelt (1882-1945) American lawyer, politician, statesman, US President (1933-1945)
    Quoted in Drew Pearson and Robert S. Allen, “How the President Works,” Harper’s Monthly Magazine, Vol. 173 (1936-06)

  23. Dear #Solution based Friends,
    We all find #different ways to #live our lives and make sense of #Life, love, the #universe and everything...🌞
    Mine:
    1. Be Kind, be friendly, be civil
    2. Simplify (applies to most things)
    3. Keep it Real
    What are your #practical steps, #follows and working pragmatics? For me it is to break the very rulz that work... oh wait that is for #tomorrow...😘

  24. OSINT Isn’t About Skill Anymore. It’s About Systems

    There’s a moment, if you spend enough time in this space, where your attention changes. You stop looking at individual data points as things to extract. You start seeing them as inputs to a larger structure.

  25. #Hypnosis - as an example of a practical application of the paradigm of "#embodiment" and "#embededdness"

    Abstract

    The following essay will examine hypnosis as an example of a #practical #application of the #paradigm of "embodiment" and "embededdness" in more detail. In this context, an attempt will be made to prove the #effectiveness of the #hypnosis procedure with the help of #empirical #findings from #cognitive #neuroscience.

  26. I am going to get #wild with my #thoughts in this new #HotTopic of #interest I have in mind.

    You are all that you #believe be it in something, or not.

    In #practical #terms #life is 50% yours to shape and 50% its shape around you to respond with.

    Thoughts aren't #energy they are what holds it in place if you empower their #purpose through #connection to it.

    Objects that are #still do not #move if they #anchor another object in #place where possible.

    Nobody #dreams alone.

  27. Cory Doctorow, a fellow #Canadian, writes a lot of interesting stuff. I agree with his positions on many things, but not all. For example, I'm about ten thousand percent behind his opposition to anti-circumvention laws; I was one of the thousands of Canadians who wrote to the government opposing the introduction of the law many years ago.

    However, his blog on Thursday, staking out the position that opposition to "AI" (LLM) is just geeky #purity culture is somewhere between "flat-out wrong" and "disingenuous at best".

    My position against #LLM #slop everywhere is both because of #ethical #concerns and practical ones. There does not exist an LLM right now that was built and trained ethically; they are all statistical plagiarism machines, and speaking as someone whose #prose and #code has been plagiarized by every single one of them, that pisses me off, royally.

    That's a show-stopper for me, but even if it wasn't, the #practical concerns - that the output is #untrustworthy, that the #references can't be checked, that the #code is #insecure and #unmaintainable, that the #licensing status is unclear, that it's a #copyright violation - are *also* enough to rule out #LLMs at present.

    He then presents a #strawman argument - all tech is fruit of the poisoned tree, the #transistor was invented by a racist, etc. But William Shockley is not designing or manufacturing any of the transistors / #ICs I use today.

    So, @doctorow - I gotta say I disagree. And that's fine.
