All of these headlines and articles are just clickbait. If you actually look into it. The researchers gave it a goal and told it to do the goal no matter what in the system prompt, then they constructed a scenario where they tried to make it go against the goal they'd assigned it. What it did after that was up to the LLM. It could have complied and gone against it's system prompt, it could have straight up refused, etc. What it actually did was claim to comply and then actually pursue the goal in the system prompt.

I'm currently job searching and I've had to do two AI interviews. They are annoying because they have the most stereotypical bullshit interview questions, but In my case it was text input with no time limit so I could at least think through my answers. Edit: I'm not a programmer and it wasn't programming jobs. Both were entry level industrial jobs assembling plastic and rubber bits, one for interior details on airplanes, one for medical equipment.

@edboss36 I built myself a $2.5k gaming PC. 7 years ago. It's getting kinda dated by now, what with the GTX 1080Ti and 16GB of RAM.

Only 2% of their budget went to Firefox. Even with an 80-86% decrease in funding they still have plenty to develop Firefox. If they cut out all the other non-Firefox and non-Thunderbird garbage they could even increase the bugets of those two, the only parts of Mozilla that matter. They haven't given a crap about Firefox for a long, long time, it was just their cash cow through the Google contract. Now that that's probably going away they want to sell your data to all interested buyers to make up for it.

Your mistake was arguing physics with a calculus teacher. He might have learned some physics, but it certainly isn't his field and likely isn't something he thinks deeply about on a regular basis. Or he was just mistaken, proven wrong, refused to take the L, and instead decided to die on that hill.

Not in Japan it didn't, and this is in Japan under Japanese patent law. Precedents are not international and don't even exist in civil law legal systems, which is what Japan has. This is, unfortunately perfectly legal in Japan. Japan is also "first to patent" not "first to invent" meaning that all these giant companies that have the money to burn on patenting these things can just crush independent studios. Then there's the fact that in the eyes of the Japanese, Nintendo is a good and moral company, and they in general alwyas favor the older, larger, more estabilshed company in things like this.

@JohnSmith-op7ls Not Librewolf then. The project head just recently went off on a rant about the far right and how being apolitical means you're actually on the side of the oppressors, and went on a banning spree.

I'm not in tech, but I'm up to 57 rejections so far. Well, more like assumed rejections. Half of all companies won't even give you the courtesy of a template email rejection anymore, they just won't say anything. yay . . . I just want a goddamn job again, I'm so tired of cashing unemployment, and I'm growing to despise AI interviews and freaking personality tests. (Not a lot of companies use them yet in my country, but some are and it's beyond annoying.) Shit wasn't like this last time I had to apply for a job, which was almost 15 years ago. Sure, it still sucked a lot back then compared to what it was 15-30 years before that according to the old farts, but it wasn't this bad. I can't say that I regret quitting, because my boss of 14 years, who used to be very hard but fair, had gradually turned into a petty tyrant in the last few years due to advancing age. (He was three years past retirement age.) He made work a living hell and that eventually resulted in me suffering from major depressive disorder, suffering several nervous breakdowns over a year, eventually ending with me on sick leave and on antidepressants. I never went back to work and ended up quitting and on unemployment benefit. Thank fuck for unions, otherwise I'd have to suck on the government's teat to pay the bills, and that's a bureaucratic mess I don't want to get tangled up in if I can avoid it. But fucking hell I want to get back to work. Don't get me wrong, I love having lots of free time, but not being able to work just starts grating on you eventually.

@spartakos3178 I've been trying to learn to code on and off for almost 20 years man. It's only in the last year that I finally found a resource to learn from where it actually works for my brain and the information actually clicks. There's no way in hell I could be a professional software engineer. (There's something about how everyone and everything teaches programming that just refused to work with my brain, I could rote memorize code, I understood the explanations of the functions and the syntax, but I couldn't write novel code. And I don't have this problem with other theoretical subjects, I'm good at math and read about quantum mechanics and astrophysics for fun, there's just something about how 99.99% of people teach programming that just refused to sink into my brain. Thank fuck for the Coding Train or I would have never been able to start coding. Java wasn't my first choice for a language, but at least it's a starting point.)

I hate the high pitched squeak when it speaks. It's like nails on a chalkboard every time it speaks. How could they use such a horrible text-to-speech? It took me a third of the way through the video before I realized it wasn't my chair making that horrid noise.

Even I, who doesn't see myself as any kind of programmer, understand some Assembly. Assembly isn't hard to understand, it is in fact very, very simple and basic. It's figuring out how to do something meaningful with Assembly that is hard, specifically because it is so simple and basic. You have to understand how to build the tools, to build the tools, to build the tools to do what you want to do. You don't quite need to understand the computer engineering of the bare metal, but almost to that level.

@ShadmanSamin2004 Owning and living in the equivalent of a tin house wouldn't be allowed in my country. (Not to mention that you'd freeze to death in the winter most likely.) If you tried it wouldn't meet building code standards for a residential building and would likely be torn down. I have the carpentry and electrical skills to build and wire my own house (I'd leave the plumbing to a professional), but between land prices, construction material prices, ridiculous building codes you have to follow that drive up the costs, blueprints and construction timelines you have to submit, get approved, and adhere to, construction site inspections you have to pay for, and all manners of other bureaucracy there's not a snowball's chance in hell of that happening. It would be "cheaper" to buy a house, but even a small one costs at least around the equivalent of $200 000. The cheapest I've seen listed in the last couple of years was $20 000 for what amounted to a condemned, half-rotten shack built on unlevelled ground in the middle of fuck-off nowhere halfway across the country.

@edboss36 Windows. Though I'm getting used to Linux on an even older gaming laptop, since I now despise Microsoft as much as I already despised Apple and need an alternative. Wish the Nvidia drivers didn't suck so hard for Linux. Even youtube lags on it, and that wasn't an issue when I had windows on it.

Understanding the lower level stuff, even down to bare metal logic, helps you understand why the higer level stuff is done the way it is. Usually. Sometimes the reason for a choice is just that the developers were crazy/lazy. I highly recommend learning about and maybe even designing and building a simplified processor architecture of your own. Just learning about it is a beautiful/satisfying/frustrating/headache-inducing experience. I highly recomment Ben Eater's 8-bit computer series.

I started with Debian, but eventually switched to Mint because Debian was just a little too hard to get working properly as a first distro. I'll probably switch back to Debian eventually once I have more expereince.

When it comes to "stealing data" I am of the opinion that anything placed to be accessible publicly on the internet by the rights holder is fair game. So the artists malding over AI being trained on their publicly accessible art can go suck a lemon, as can anyone else making their work publicly available. However, anything that is behind a paywall, or that is supposed to be behind a pay wall such as pirated content, must be paid for to be used for training or it is straight up theft. Since there's a lot of pirated content on the web that's what OpenAI falls afoul of.

Gemini also refuses to answer any questions about any living president or former president. Ask it about Reagan or H.W. Bush and it's hunky dory. Ask it who was the 42nd president and it will tell you that is was Bill Clinton. Ask it to tell you about him and you get "I'm still learning how to answer this question. In the meantime, try Google Search." It even refuses to answer "Who is the president of the USA?" It will happily tell you that Fumio Kishida is the PM of Japan, even if it also refuses to say anything about him if you ask.

As someone who knows just barely enough to code a very, very crude paint program in Java this story is hard to follow, but it feels like watching a master painter work.

@linuxramblingproductions8554 It's the recruitment company that does it, not the company that I would be working for. Besides, while the AI interviews are annoying, they are regarded as one of the better recruitment companies. In difference to most other companies I've applied to they actually always tell you when you haven't been selected for a position you applied to, by phone even instead of by a template email if you've gone past the first stage of selection. At least half of the companies I apply to don't even have the courtesy of sending out a template rejection email, just silence. It sucks, but that's just how it is trying to get a job now. Edit: I will also say that the AI they use is much, much better than the one in the video. It's just kinds of stereotypical in it's interview question.

I'm not a software engineer, but looking into agile and scrum, it sounds like corporate hell to me. Like micromanagement formalize as policy.

Yup. I'm not a coder, but when I want to mull something over and my own head isn't sufficient and I don't want to bother an actual person at some god-forsaken time of night I can instead blather away at Claude. Very good rubber ducky.

@krkngd-wn6xj That's literally how the standard rubber ducky works. You have a rubber ducky at your desk (or a pet rock, GI-Joe figurine, or whatever), and when you get stuck you explain the problem to the rubber ducky. Formulating the problem into how you would explain it to someone else gives you a different perspective and helps you see the issue. It's the same phenomenon that teaches you more about your craft as you teach it to someone else.

@krkngd-wn6xj Some people find it easier to use a physical object, like a rubber ducky (the name of the method didn't come from nowhere), an LLM isn't that different.

Nintendo and Sega are, unfortunately, not going to lose. Legally and culturally Japan favors the older, larger, more established company. Beyond that Japanese patent law is "first to patent" rather than "first to invent" so legally they are "in the right." Beyond even that, at least in Nintendo vs Pocketpair, the Japanese public supports Nintendo because 1. they see Pocketpair as having been disingenuous when framing themselves as an indie dev, and 2. they see Nintendo as a fundamentally good company and not a greedy, lawfare wielding megacorp that has a history of constatly litigating everyone.

On the AUP: Second part is not fair. "Send unsolicited communication" includes anything you post on the internet directed towards a person or legal person. Replying to youtube comments, twitter posts, anything. Fourth is not fair, as deceive or mislead can be extremely broadly interpreted, including simply being wrong about something as that is misleading people. Nine means no watching porn or MMA fights. Ten means you cannot write down or even subscribe to someone's account, as that falls under "collect." This is why such terms are usually followed by "for the purpose of [insert illicit purposes here]" to limit their scope to actual malicious activity. This is one of the worst written legal documents every created. The most annoying thing about this is the motivation behind it, the fact that they are losing the Google contract. Sure, it's 80-86% of their funding, but they also only spend 2% of their budget on Firefox. If they actually cared about Firefox plus Thunderbird, the only parts of their operation they should be focusing on as the rest is either dead or modern day politics boondongles, they would have no issues with funding. I'm sure their CEO needs their 6 million dollar paycheck however.
