Ouch

For sure! <3

Awh they’re so wholesome and positive. Thanks for sharing these :)

I have hundreds of short form videos which are designed to uplift, encourage, and speak positively about mental health issues.

Could you please drop a link to them? If what u’r saying is true, well I kinda need em at this point in time :(

So tiktok for the fediverse…

Listen, I’m all for open sourcing stuff and I’m all for the fediverse and all. I just don’t understand why one would want a fediverse tiktok.

• Short form content is addictive af and doesn’t add anything of substance to society.
• Video hosting is expensive. Peertube is already struggling. How do you expect to financially sustain video hosting that is addictive to the user (which means more consumption) without running ads? Paywalling it won’t be an option due to the network effect as well.

Very interesting video, I had no idea the level of redundancy built into QR codes.

RIGHT?!! Same here. I didn’t know there was SO MUCH of thought put behind QR codes. I always assumed they were just bits visually represented in 2D with the three black squares being there for alignment purposes. Turns out it is a lot more complicated than that hehe

Thanks!

Np <3

Dayum, that’s nice! Maybe I’ll use it if I ever want to learn a new language

Does Duolingo come up with personalised tests n stuff? Never used it much haha

Did u read the abstract? They’re presenting a framework to use LLMs as educators in higher education. It’s quite cool really.

The idea is to create a professor personalised for every student and their learning patterns. Imagine hiring a professor to personally teach you something. The professor talks to you, creates little tests specifically for what they think are your weaknesses are in the subject matter and so on.

This is very good for us as human researchers will now be able to dedicate (assuming this tech works) 100% of their time to research instead of teaching the same subject matter again and again every single year, coming up with tests, marking tests, grading their students’ papers and so on.

If this tech is successful, then education costs would nosedive like crazy, which would be good for all.

I’m confident we should start seeing stuff like this soon. The upcoming ChatGPT model (forgot the version name) is doing recursive prompts for itself, where it breaks down a big task into smaller ones, then runs and reruns those tasks before coming up with an output.

Right now, all LLMs just do a single pass and spit out the output. They don’t reason with themselves like we do yet. It’s kinda like what we do in quiz competitions or something, where we immediately shout “blue” when asked “what color is the sky”. However, when asked something more complicated, we don’t just answer quickly based on intuition, do we? We pause, think, rethink, look for counter arguments, patch holes in our statements and so on.

This is the ability that LLMs lack now. However, very soon they will be able to do that. This just opens up a crazy amount of things that they can do. Take code for example. Right now, LLMs just spit out code without seeing if it works or not. Now, they’ll be able to run it themselves, look for errors, bugs and so on, fix them and finally submit the output code.

Stuff like this would supercharge them quite a lot. Now, I know that I’m going to be downvoted to hell for talking about AI, cuz lemmy hates it. Mark my words though - you’ll be able to do A LOT using LLMs because of this.

AI is going to exist and improve like crazy no matter what. The leftist position on this should be public ownership over these models and NOT pretending that they don’t exist.

Good furry.

Pats head

If it is approved by the FDA? HECK YEAH BAYBEEE

Not really. There’s a link section that u could’ve put your link in. That way, we could’ve gotten a link preview image in ur post.

No association with any account. Therefore, no profiling.

No idea lmao. We were incredibly tech illiterate then. I’m pretty sure that we didn’t even know that there was something called “task manager” lol

This reminds me of a funny incident. So back when I was like 6-7, we had a Windows XP PC with the big box monitor and all that. And of course, it had Internet Explorer on it.

Now the entire system was veeeeery slow. Whenever the system used to boot up, we would have to let it “idle” for a few minutes before we could use it. One fine day, I didn’t feel like letting it idle. So I bravely double clicked on Internet Explorer. Nothing happened. Okay, it mustn’t have realized that I double clicked. Fine. I double clicked again. Nope. Nothing. I did it again. Okaaay fine, I should’ve let it idle. So I waited for a minute and double clicked again. Nope, nothing. Now I had started to get pissed. So I started double clicking it with increasing frequency.

Finally, I was so pissed that I just spammed double clicks for a whole minute lmao. I think my mum heard the continuos double clicks to see what exactly I was doing. After she understood what I was up to, she was annoyed with the fact that I wasn’t being patient. So she snatched the mouse away from me and sat in front of the PC.

MIRACULOUSLY one window of Internet Explorer opened. But waaaaaait. It didn’t stop there. Another window opened. Then another. Then another. Turns out, Windows HAD registered my need for a new IE window. It’s just that it needed time to load it up. Oof. Now Windows was spamming US with IE browser windows.

My mum sighed, and started closing the windows one by one. This clearly wasn’t her first rodeo looks like. But the windows kept coming. Also, for some reason, she was weary of making the computer gods angry. That’s why, she was closing the windows as slooooowly and softly as possible.

Ok, so by now the solution (besides getting a better, newer computer) looks kinda clear. Just restart the system. Buuuut we didn’t think of this then. So now, she just sat there, closing windows for FIFTEEN MINUTES STRAIGHT. It was the digital equivalent of 6yo me throwing up and her cleaning it up lmao.

Anyway, the computer gods finally relented and all windows were closed. Thank fuck we have better tech today lol.

I was using the quantized version :(

But again, do remember that this was when the first open sourced AI models had just begun to come out. Stuff from Open Assistant for example. I don’t even remember the name of the model that I was running (it was just too weird and funny lol). I just remember it being HUGE, quite dumb and making my device sweat lol.

HOLY HELL THAT’S COOL. It can do so much too!!!

I locally installed some small LLM model more than a year ago. It took up like 25 gigs or something along with all CUDA libraries n stuff. It was alright, but I figured that cloud based solutions were the best for my use case, as they were better and for free.

I had no idea that open sourced AI progressed so much in the last year. Amazing stuff!

RIGHT?!!! IT’S SO FKIN AMAZING

This is especially going to be useful for me as a student. It’s just feels like browser 2.0 at this point haha

Don’t want to install and maintain 10gigs of cuda stuff on my PC. Next, my mum won’t know how to do that. Her laptop is a potato. This add-on makes all of this way easier.
