World News@lemmy.world•Russia ready to 'fight to the last Ukrainian,' Putin says amid US peace driveEnglish
3·3 days agoI’m always astounded at the near universal human ability to act as though some demented fuckhead is some super wizard who forces them to do shit. Putin is just some guy, he’s largely useless and he wears stupid high-heels because he’s not even able to stand up to his own crap. Everyone could just start ignorning him tomorrow but they don’t.
Part of that problem is there are a lot of people who love to be thugs. They’re just broken losers who love taking orders that let them be mean to others and the world would be so much better with them as red paste on the sidewalk to be washed away by the rain.

Technology@lemmy.world•AI Slop Recipes Are Taking Over the Internet — And Thanksgiving Dinner | Food bloggers see traffic dip as home cooks turn to AI, inspired by impossible picturesEnglish
4·6 days agoI just hate that the recipe list, instructions, and the other relevant information are in three different places.
I read it as “we are aware that these two ideologies are different and frankly they are both such absolute garbage that we don’t really care to distinguish them all that much.”
It’s to show that there is literacy and understanding of nuance there, but that at the end of the day it’s more of a “fun fact” when the centrists keep supporting the conservatives as their general default. Even when Liberals do nothing is about how that nothing is consistently helping the far-right get away with shit while aggressively discouraging progressive change.
Conservatives are nationalist morons who are trying to conserve and bring back a lot of the systems that let low-quality privileged people in their given society keep all the power. Liberals don’t have hating minorites as a policy goal but they also refuse to believe that doing nothing will not, in fact, make up for hundreds of years of systemic issues. Conservatives will try to fix capitalism by ethnic minorities and Liberals will try to fix by getting rid of rules which “might stifle economic expansion”. Neither of those ideologies are worth anything though they are different.
Marketing and advertising are like enchantment spells in fantasy. Theoretically they have beneficial uses but for some reason the only thing we can think to do with them is try our best to remove consent and be generally intrusive.

Capitalism is where the money is the important part and has the power yet whenever these corporations find themselves in a position where the system could actually function in some vaguely beneficial way for society they still fall all over themselves to suck off whatever shitstain is causing problems.

11·27 days agoHow many times you gunna say “you clearly don’t understand” before you just admit that you don’t have the communication skills to talk about it with anyone who doesn’t have intimate knowledge about your specific project and how your soecific company does, or evidently doesn’t, function? Sorry I made you feel bad about yourself by asking questions you couldn’t answer.
Look, you don’t need to admit it to me, this exchange has been heated enough and I get that, but for the love of god please be better the next time you find yourself in a similar situation.

11·27 days agoBruh, I can’t with you lol. Or your dogshit company, either, which apparently has such poor data management that its original plan was to get sales people to ask the fucking developpers to get marketting information for them. Embarrassing.
I love how there’s no possible way for anything to work except for your specific solution and that’s it. Everything else is throwing your hands up in the air and getting mad at people.

1·29 days agoMy. Guy.
- The copilot agent has access to at least a read only part of the database, right? And this means that it is possible for something to have access to the database, right?
- It generates reports for them using this access to the database, right?
- It knows what each piece of information means because each piece of information comes with some kind of identifier so nothing falls through the cracks, right?
- “Unless a report exists” exactly, so how would that report have been made pre-copilot? This has been my question the entire time. What were people doing in 2018, for example?
What is stopping you from making an interface that a human being can use instead of forcing them to go through a copilot agent? I’m assuming that the database is not a clumsily assorted stack of PDF reports or you would have said something by now(right?). All data would have some way of identifying it(sale instance was for X product in Y location for Z amount at [time], for example) and if you can integrate co-pilot than surely you can integrate something to handle that information, right?
Before the copilot agent, there was no system whatsoever for anyone to make reports because no one had access to the database? So they just hucked information into it and it was lost to time? What if an auditor came through and needed to see things? Did you just say “sorry, no one has access to the database and you’re going to have to wait until LLMs exist and FreedomAdvocate integrates one into the database”?
Look, dude, I’m ok with not understanding something but you haven’t given me any indication that what I’m asking for wouldn’t work. All you’ve said is “no that won’t work” and the most in-depth thing I’ve gotten is that “there are a lot of places to find the info” but never really elaborated on why that’s a significant problem or why co-pilot can handle it so vastly differently(and without missing anything).

1·29 days agoExcept you obviously did not make your point. In fact, you made the opposite of your point.
You’re going to need to figure out why your language sucks because saying that marketting doesn’t have access to the database enough to filter through information manually but does have access enough to get that information through an LLM is just about the dumbest thing I’ve heard of. They either have access or they don’t, which is it? How come they can only view the information through a fucking chatbot?
And for the love all that is good and holy HOW THE FUCK WAS ANYTHING BEING DONE BEFORE THE AI AGENT?! ANSWER THE VERY SIMPLE QUESTION!

11·1 month ago“My example was perfect” then why was it so pathetically simple? You’re trying to show how AI will solve complex issues and you present something that a toddler could sort through. Maybe your database is just organized like dogshit or maybe you have a point but lack any kind of communication skills to the point where you don’t understand that I don’t know the specifics of how your company works/struggles to function.
And for the love of god can you put even the slightest fraction of the effort you’re putting into being an asshole to answer my questions that I’ve asked repeatedly?! How were people handling this data since before your little LLM tool?

11·1 month agoHey dude, I was responding to your incredibly shitty examples. You give me no information and blame for not having information well, that’s a you problem. But I suppose if you understood that concept you’d also understand the problems I’m talking about.
Now, again, if the AI can have access to all that information and identify it correctly then why is it impossible to do what I’m asking? It has to be able to tell the difference somehow, right? And with LLMs being known to have hallucinations and serious misunderstandings it seems rather ridiculous to rely on it for something that you say is so complex that a person cannot do it. You also haven’t answered me, I don’t think, on the topic of what people were doing before the LLM.
There are a lot of key elements you’re dodging here and before you start talking shit maybe start addressing them.

11·1 month agoYou literally told you built something which would allow an LLM to access the data. In order to be reliable enough the data would have to be appropriately sorted already and there would need to be an interface which the LLMs could use. So you built all this stuff to let the LLM thing work and now you’re looking at me stupid like building an extreme simple filter is some sorta crazy thing and we need a product to do it.
What the hell were people doing before you built your little chatbot? Just neatly sorting information into a black box and throwing into the ocean?

Gross. That’s how it starts, and then the only thing cheap about is its cost relative to the other tiers.
