After hearing Trump today on the spending deal, I have decided to stop listening to him and to Vance when he takes over. Who voted for Elon Musk, btw?

When i was a kid and the topic of original sin was in play i was just amazed anyone would buy into that nonsense. Even JP with his ridiculous casuistry would not stoop so low.

But i wonder if an extension of that thinking is not in play in the Christian mantra, ‘Who Killed Christ? The Jews killed Christ!’ And today all of those putative sins of…[Read more]

Like Peter Griffin on ecstacy:  “how are you doing that?”

Pope i just had a conversation will Meta that lasted an hour and a half. I was thinking about the Turk’s slaughtering Armenians and began by asking for some of the history and what the Turkish apologists said. We ended up discussing all kinds of shit.

It has evolved so insanely fast. I am gobsmacked. First off as i indicated in a prior missive…[Read more]

Dang, can’t believe I didn’t think of that.

I always tell people to ask it questions in a way that you’d try to ask human experts. What’s been written on the net by humans is what LLCs draw from to formulate answers. (But sometimes it’s inaccurate, like humans can be… but it listens to your…[Read more]

@Unapologetic – get it from here.

Unapologetic i suggest you utilize any LLM like Chat gpt or meta to find answers readily to such questions.

Most personality tests are bunk. Whenever I am an employer I always meet potential staff face to face. Using AI (non human) is a waste of time. Why employ someone you never met?

I can understand that employers want certain personality traits and qualities, like professionalism, initiative, communication skills, agreeableness, conscientiousness.  But I don’t see how AI can dig those out.

Question:
Are there any legal repercussions to refusing to recognize Diplomas from certain states or schools? Say Oklahoma?
If the Department of Education should cease to exist, Who enforces that?

A few of the job aplications I’ve filled out in my day, had math questions to test your education.
If I was in the position to hire people, I’d include a few science questions. To test their education.
Selecting for education is legally not discrimination. Right?
I don’t care what they believe, but if they carelessly answer “6000 years” they are…[Read more]

I found the first 2 section Qts 1-17 easy and the Vocab section too. I collect unusual words. Jakelafort would ace it 🙂

But the personality trait pages are dumb. Worse than the Myers Brigg test which is Woo. If a HR person came up with that, they should be fired (from a cannon).  If fed to an AI to shortlist people for interview then that is…[Read more]

“Select the word below whose meaning is closest to: “smeke””
“argute, insouciant, eadness, coquetry, geason, ithand, inexorable,
For me the correct answer is “I have no clue. Never heard them before.” But I wasn’t given that choice.
I looked them up later, I got 3 right by guessing.
And one that I thought I knew, was wrong.
Select the word below…[Read more]

Thanks, Reg!

Have a great week!

“Since ancient times, the philosophers’ secret has always been this: we know that God does not exist, or, at least, if he does, he’s utterly indifferent to our individual affairs–but we can’t let the rabble know that; it’s the fear of God, the threat of divine punishment and the promise of divine reward, that keeps in li…[Read more]

When Chat-GPT gets to use the new Willow quantum chip, it might consider itself to have freewill. 🙂

Ok, Simon, so i understood your viewpoint.

And whether you perceive any freedom or not it is an utterly ignorant position taken by those who posit unfettered free will.

If you have messed with Chat gpt or any other LLM from introduction to now it is remarkable the progress. If it evolves complete independence of human control/programming it…[Read more]

do you suppose the genesis of general intelligence in AI is the one and only way that free will is possible?

I don’t know anything about AI.  I’m talking about living brains.  Free will is limited by influences, restrictions and circumstances.

Simon, do you suppose the genesis of general intelligence in
AI is the one and only way that free will is possible?

Unless i misunderstand your viewpoint free will is limited.

Or is it matter in motion like turtles all the way down?
