I will never not share this story whenever it crosses my feed. Never.
@mattround that is both awesome and simultaneously reminiscent of screwing up memory tweaks for games in dos 5

Remember 100 years ago when radiation was new and exciting and poorly understood, and companies were putting radiation into everything?
Thankfully we learned our lesson and will never make that mistake again.

These little striped cuckoo chicks sport plumage that mimics a pine cone.
After all, what idiot would want to swallow a pine cone for dinner?

anyone else remember ICL?
@Viss "in which case may I introduce our new Incident Response offering - you won't need it right away but you should probably print off the details for when you no longer have functioning systems of your own"

Nobody has a "right" to an ethnostate. That's not how that works.
@AnarchoNinaWrites how about we put an upper limit on the size of an ethnostate, say 4 acres max. ideally on an island so the ethnostate can fully isolate itself from the rest of the world's population successfully?

And now, one of many possible payoffs from this walkthrough of fundamentals in mentation and communication:
YOU CANNOT ASSUME AN LLM IS GENERALLY INTELLIGENT MERELY BECAUSE IT SPEAKS WELL.
You also can't assume a *human* is unusually intelligent simply because they speak unusually well--you're evaluating their language facility, NOT their general intelligence.
Thank you for coming to my frustrated TedXYZ talk, I'll be here all eternity.
