@dysfun @mcc do you enjoy deriving sustenance from organic compounds? I can’t get enough of them.

@joeress oh, shit, a perk is unlimited access to the GOG library?!

@joeress should I apply just to argue with that point?

@amberage I thought it wasn’t canon, although the runners and writers went to pains to make sure nothing contradicted actual canon?

@amberage

@instantiatethis that’s awesome!

@futurebird I feel like one of the things that annoys me about LLM use is that it’s not being treated in that same manner. You need to be able to check the output of your tools. To use a calculator, you need to understand what you’re doing with it and also the underlying domain: that’s math and whatever you’re trying to apply math to.

There’s other things like the nondeterminism and waste and ethics and how well-formed language biases the brain to thinking the thing that produced that language is both conscious and has thoughts.
