For those of you who didn't read the paper, the argument they're making is similar to Godel's Incompleteness Theorem: no matter how you build your LLM, there will be a significant number of prompts that make that LLM hallucinate. If the proof holds up then hallucinations aren't a limitation of the training data or the structure of your particular model, they're a limitation of the very concept of an LLM. That doesn't make LLMs useless, but it does mean you shouldn't ever use one as a source of truth.
Which is exactly what the paper recommends! As long as you have something that isn't an LLM in the pipeline to vet the output and you're aware is the tech's limitations, they can be useful tools. But some of those limitations might be a more solid barrier than some sales departments would like us to believe.
Have you been spending hours trying to pass a level? Or maybe you are completely addicted to a newly bought game. Do you have a question about a game or would like to share something else? In the Weekly Discussion Thread, you can do it all!...
I started up a new city in Cities Skylines 2. Trying to build a city mate up of little pit stops along the highway with no industrial zones at all. It's been an interesting experiment so far! The game does track the jobs generated by retail and city services, so if you balance it just right you can have enough work to attract residents and use the highway connections to just barely generate enough sales for the commercial zones to stay profitable. And the city as a whole is getting closer and closer to a positive balance in the budget, so I might just pull this off...
First, try to understand what’s actually being said here. Sometimes I call myself fat because I’m above my target weight. But in my case my self-esteem is just fine: I’m a former gym rat who knows where I am, what I need to do to get back in shape, and that I’m still okay if I don’t get there. Saying “I’m fat” is a light jab at myself and a reminder to take steps toward my goals, nothing to worry about.
If your GF is calling herself fat more hurtfully (which is sadly common) the issue is not how fat she is or isn’t. That’s just a symptom. The issue is whatever negative feeling is prompting her to tear herself down. Arguing with her about whether she’s actually fat won’t help with that, and might even do more harm than good. Maybe ask her how she’s doing, remind her that you love her just the way she is.
I downvoted it for the total lack of context. The video title is opaque at best and clickbait at worst. Neither OP nor the video’s creator offer any description of what this “critique” is supposed to be. Are we roasting the game? Are we defending the game? Are we trying to give a more fair and balanced treatment than others have? From the post, the video title, and the video description I have no idea what this is or why I should give it any of my time, so I consider it spam and I downvote.
Generally, when videos get posted to a forum like this I want to see OP chime in with why this video is worth our time. If you’re posting it, you should already have watched it, so you’re the first person in this community who can tell us what’s good or bad about it. That’s incredibly valuable! Even a one sentence blurb about what made you post this particular video here is a huge help to people looking for info about this topic, especially when the video is 48 minutes long.
I find your resistance to offering thoughts on the things you share in a forum strange, because you seem friendly and well spoken. Just a quick sentence describing what this video was and why you wanted people to see it probably would have got you my upvote instead.
Joseph Anderson may have millions of views, but I’m not in those millions. I never heard of the guy until you posted this. So all I had to go on was that its something about Lies of P and it’s 48 minutes long. That’s a lot of time to spend on figuring out whether a random Internet post is worthwhile or not. Cute cat pictures can stand on their own, those only take a second to look at and tell if they’re good or bad, but a long form video really needs some context before I can say whether I’m interested in seeing it or boosting it to other people. And if I don’t have the context to say whether the post is good, I’ll downvote it to make room for the posts that are definitely good.
Whatcha all been playing? I’ve been playing a ton of Mario world ROM hacks, including some kaizo ones. Also started doing my oblivion playthrough again!
Mostly Cities Skylines 2. The performance is not great, but it’s passable with the settings turned down and the actual city building is really good. Right now I’m working on a big expansion to my city further down the highway, just got the water/power lines run between them so it’s one big happy grid exporting the extra to other cities. Already looking forward to the things I’ll do differently in my second city!
Also playing some Super Mario Wonder on the side, which is fantastic. Great mix of easy fun levels and hard-as-nails secret special levels. Very fun!
AI companies have all kinds of arguments against paying for copyrighted content::The companies building generative AI tools like ChatGPT say updated copyright laws could interfere with their ability to train capable AI models. Here are comments from OpenAI, StabilityAI, Meta, Google, Microsoft and more.
Most of these companies are just arguing that they shouldn’t have to license the works they’re using because that would be hard and inconvenient, which isn’t terribly compelling to me. But Adobe actually has a novel take I hadn’t heard before: they equate AI development to reverse engineering software, which also involves copying things you don’t own in order to create a compatible thing you do own. They even cited a related legal case, which is unusual in this pile of sour grapes. I don’t know that I’m convinced by Adobe’s argument, I still think the artists should have a say in whether their works go into an AI and a chance to get paid for it, but it’s the first argument I’ve seen for a long while that’s actually given me something to think about.
There’s a Kickstarter out to produce vinyl records of an industrial rock cover of The 7th Guest and The 11th Hour soundtracks, with the blessing of the original composer! There’s also a bunch of WIP preview tracks on the Kickstarter page if you want to hear what it’s going to sound like when it’s done.
I recently started playing GTAV again and sometimes I’ll get in my car and let the radio stations play while I do house stuff. Favorite stations are the 80s one with Kenny Loggins, and West Coast Classics and Rock Radio.
The 7th Guest and The 11th Hour remain top-tier for me. The music was half the experience, turn it up and just enjoy that creepy vibe while solving puzzles. And they’re all on The Fat Man’s Bandcamp now!
The full soundtracks to both games are on the Fat Man’s Bandcamp, which I linked up above. Also, the “greatest hits” collection album 7/11 is on Spotify. It’s surprisingly easy to listen to these days!
There’s a Kickstarter going for an industrial rock reimagining of the 7th Guest and 11th Hour soundtracks, released on vinyl, with the blessing of The Fat Man himself! And there’s a bunch of work-in-progress previews posted so you can get an idea of the sound they’re going for. Seriously cool stuff!
Lemmy scratches the Reddit itch for me. It doesn't have all my old niche communities yet, but it's got enough for me to log on and see what's happening in the Internet.
Also, I haven't been pestered to use an app since I got here, which is so nice. Reddit was getting more and more aggressive about that before I quit.
