This tracks. OpenAI used underpaid gig workers in Kenya to make ChatGPT function as advertised. And they forced those workers to look at and classify abusive content all day. So weird how the new miracle tech turned out to be the old capitalist abuse of labor trick.

Marines tricked an Aai designed to detect humans by....not acting normal

Since I just saw yet another developer use '1.2.3.4' in an example configuration, a reminder that you MUST NOT use publicly routable addresses that you do not control in your code.

Instead, use one of the available 'TEST-NET' IPv4 or IPv6 ranges documented in RFC 6890, such as;

192.0.2.0/24
198.51.100.0/24
203.0.113.0/24

❌ 1.2.3.4
✅ 192.0.2.4

Pass it on to all of your fellow developers, documentation writers, and so forth.

Full RFC is here;

@Quinnae_Moon I thought John Mastodon was parodising this exact phenomena.

@evil1 Apparently apple ended up having to replace to chips out of pocket because nvidia refused to recognise the problem.

"Billionaires like Bill Gates and Elon Musk assume that a superintelligent AI will stop at nothing to achieve its goals because that’s the attitude they adopted. Of course, they saw nothing wrong with this strategy when they were the ones engaging in it; it’s only the possibility that someone else might be better at it than they were that gives them cause for concern."

I am increasingly convinced that you can't steel something clearly marked as being for sale, it's a sale. It can not ba a crime to take something from a store shelf. The store can however demand payment.

Debt collectors* should aid sellers in collection of their customers debt, not the police. It shall not be crime to buy things from an seller, or to be in debt to said seller.

/Zoe

*Their exist no reason debt collection can't be a well regulated industry.

Many will read this story and think, "well they're undocumented immigrants they put themselves and their children in this position."
Exactly. You are the human trafficker. You are what makes it possible. You want victim culpability, not systems critique. Not those with power over them. To allow them to exist in a world where subsistence is desperation.

@0xabad1dea then it's wrong. Code exists for humans, if code where for machines it would be in binary.

PSA for for pretty much everyone, even those who aren’t new - there is another mass migration underway. Meaning lots of accounts are being created on instances all across the fediverse, and the people behind those accounts are exploring, introducing themselves, and so on. Some instances handle this load better than others.

PLEASE NOTE: while you can migrate an account to a new instance and your followers will move with you, however doing so during times like this may cause that to not work correctly.

Please be patient with instances that are have trouble keeping up. They will get it under control. We are all doing the best we can. Most all instances are funded by donations from members. If you are able, look at your instance’s /about page and consider donating.

@Qanno I agree but one thing. Engineers didn't come up with AI Art, just the tool artists use to produce AI Art.

It's not art until it has assigned meaning, only humans can do that.

This of course doesn't preclude an engineer from doing that, just that they do that outside the work of engineering.

@Qanno fair enough. yeah, it sucks when people try to free ride on qualified work when they do not possess the skills or knowledge necessary to produce said work.

It's just a bit to easy to blame the tools sometimes.

I should also add that it also sucks when people who do possess the necessary skills and knowledge steel others work, it's just less apparent.

@sima yeah, I honestly thought they pre-boiled them, like instant pasta. Maybe I was wrong.

@bojacobs @nuclearhumanities @sts and people think we should stop using nuclear power. Madness I say nuclear power is a necessary byproduct of making the artifact for which we will be remembered, not using that power would be an absolute waste.

@Qanno as long as they do a qualified job at curating the output of the tool, big if I know, I think they are in the right. AI is a tool like any other, used well it can be art.

@ownlife We can't solve abuse. If someones intent is to hurt you you have little choice but exclude them from your life.

If you are up for it you can also tackle the issue head on, it's okay to hurt abusers.

@ownlife people that don't are usually afraid of the consequences, real or imagined, if they do.
