I still interact with one irreplaceable community. If there isn't enough subscribed content on Lemmy, I do go back and look at my feed. Most of my interactions are here, though.

There did seem to be a controversy in March about whether or not the word should go.

Haha, if you quickly skipped the "and people" part. Happen all the time. Brain cycles are expensive.

Those seem like questions for more research.

I bet it's more pernicious because it is easy to incorporate AI suggestions. If you do your own research, you may have to think a bit if the references/search results may be bad, and you still have to put the info in your own words so that you don't offend the copyright gods. With the AI help, well, the spellings are good, the sentences are perfectly formed, the information is plausible, it's probably not a straight-forward copy, why not just accept?

I am being brainwashed by AI!

Here's the paper: https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/3544548.3581196

Abstract

If large language models like GPT-3 preferably produce a particular point of view, they may influence people’s opinions on an unknown scale. This study investigates whether a language-model-powered writing assistant that generates some opinions more often than others impacts what users write – and what they think. In an online experiment, we asked participants (N=1,506) to write a post discussing whether social media is good for society. Treatment group participants used a language-model-powered writing assistant configured to argue that social media is good or bad for society. Participants then completed a social media attitude survey, and independent judges (N=500) evaluated the opinions expressed in their writing. Using the opinionated language model affected the opinions expressed in participants’ writing and shifted their opinions in the subsequent attitude survey. We discuss the wider implications of our results and argue that the opinions built into AI language technologies need to be monitored and engineered more carefully.

OK. Then. I guess the summary would be like, the asteroid was more loose than we though, and we had no idea how the boulders got ejected from the surface because our impact.

Somehow, I found the lead scientist's statement and the associated news to be click-baiting. Right, you crash something into a composite rock, and expect no ejecta from it. That's pretty freaking believable. That's like, the most basic physics you can expect from it. This is just to grab your attention so we can get more funding (which they may deserve, even if this is irritating), folks.

Yes, open-sourced. SQL database. Most likely people who have gripes with lemmy.world.

Some apps (like banking) may not work on rooted phones.

Even if you root your phone properly, you may not be able to unroot it.

TLDR;

Big techs already cause spread of disinformation, but is not sowing 'AI doomerism' because LLMs threaten their profits.

OK. Info added.

addy.io is a privacy-focused email service that allows you to create and manage email aliases...

You're right. Edited.

Haha, obviously, this needs to correlate with other habits/available resources too. Otherwise, people in the past would live longer than people in the present.

I love some "bad" food, but I do walk a lot. I suppose I might live longer than people who love bad food as much as I do but don't exercise.

I think it's OK/good-looking on certain things. Maybe just because it's a shiny pretty metal. But somehow, I don't seem to own anything in shiny gold color.

The next fad in fetish.

Easy excuse; anyone would believe it. It's the work of God.

1. Yes, if it disconnected and is unable to sync, you can still access the vault.
2. If you change the master password elsewhere, when your app is able to sync, it will log out automatically.

Ideally, since you want to write your master password down to keep it safe somewhere (because you can forget), you write the new password down before you change the password.
