  • after I've previously posted this and this, an update: both the memrise browser version and the iOS app now have "chat to a buddy" as a non-skipable step in course iteration

    the "buddy" is a chatbot of unclear provenance. this page mentions "MemBot - powered by AI" at the top, which is a link to this zendesk page, but that's a dead link

    From:  The Sentry Team <noreply@sentry.io>
    Subject:	Update to Sentry’s List of Subprocessors
    ...
     - Google LLC (Google Cloud Services) and OpenAI, L.L.C. are now reflected as subprocessors for all Sentry products, instead of select features only; and
     - Anthropic, PBC is now added as a subprocessor.
    
      

    sigh

    they do still have user-specified controls (and appear to respect them), but... sigh

  • okay look, I wanna be quite fair to this comment

    and that starts with first apologising to you for what I'm about to do, which is engage in one of the worst social patterns and false logic modes of engagement that plagues forums

    so I just gotta ask you: what the fuck made you choose that abominably shitty semi-clone of a rust emblem? good god. do better.

    breathe

    okay. with that out of the way. on to the meat.

    I'm sorry you fuckin wot m8?

    did you ever fucking pay any attention whatsoever to the details here? are you so fucking thoroughly up your own goddamn ass that you do not see the problem here?

    holy fucking christ in a tapdancing duet with the devil, how did you think this post of yours was an okay one to make?

  • Julien Delavande , an engineer at AI research firm Hugging Face , has developed a tool that shows in real time the power consumption of the chatbot generating

    gnnnnnngh

    this shit pisses me off so bad

    there's actually quantifiable shit you can use across vendors[0]. there's even some software[1] you can just slap in place and get some good free easy numbers with! these things are real! and are usable!

    "measure the power consumption of the chatbot generating"

    I'm sorry you fucking what? just how exactly are you getting wattage out of openai? are you lovingly coaxing the model to lie to you about total flops spent?

    [0] - intel's def been better on this for a while but leaving that aside for now..

    [1] - it's very open source! (when I last looked there was no continual in-process sampling so you got hella at-observation sampling problems; but, y'know, can be dealt with)

  • exploitation-offshorer "Nick Huber" (@sweatystartup) finds that the leopards will, in fact, also eat his face. but still takes it as a fine opportunity to pitch his exploitation:

    (I guess at least his account name is directionally accurate? indicates willingness to induce sweatshops...)

  • I opened the site for it and browsed a bit, my first thought being something like “christ, the worst of glamper festivals”, shortly after followed by “god this like is like if the worst of burning man fucked TED”

    then, bottom of the “music & performances” page:

    Europe’s answer to TED
