21·1 year agoI didn’t know there was a difference between mice and rats but after looking it up (read: asking ChatGPT), yes it was a small mouse. Also I forgot the air fryer half open at night.
Air fryers aren’t microwaves heating things in weird ways. It’s just an oven that gets hot faster and blows air around a lot. Why would a mouse explode?
idk man maybe the air inside the mouse expanded until it exploded or something? I can’t really give you a definitive answer since I didn’t dissect the little guy. All I know is that I heard something pop, and when I looked inside my air fryer there was a twitching dead mouse with a splash of blood coming out of its mouth.

31·1 year agoThey did test those block towers to see if they were resistant to earthquakes, and they were still standing after a test comparable to the strongest earthquake in California. Though I agree that compared to the other options available it does look way more unsafe and inefficient.

Technology@lemmy.world•OpenAI, Google, Anthropic admit they can’t scale up their chatbots any furtherEnglish
8·1 year agoIt’s a known problem - though of course, because these companies are trying to push AI into everything and oversell it to build hype and please investors, they usually try to avoid recognizing its limitations.
Frankly I think that now they should focus on making these models smaller and more efficient instead of just throwing more compute at the wall, and actually train them to completion so they’ll generalize properly and be more useful.
I would like to propose some changes to that title:

Technology@lemmy.world•Generative AI is reportedly tripling carbon dioxide emissions from data centersEnglish
372·1 year agoI remember when scientists were more focused on making AI models smaller and more efficient, and research on generative models was focused on making GANs as robust as possible with very little compute and data.
Now that big companies and rich investors saw the potential for profit in AI the paradigm has shifted to “throw more compute at the wall until something sticks”, so it’s not surprising it’s affecting carbon emissions.
Besides that it’s also annoying that most of the time they keep their AIs behind closed doors, and even in the few cases where the weights are released publicly these models are so big that they aren’t usable for the vast majority of people, as sometimes even Kaggle can’t handle them.

Technology@lemmy.world•Susan Wojcicki, Former Chief of YouTube, Dies at 56English
448·1 year agoLooked up her name on Twitter to see what people were saying about this, that was a mistake 🙄


A lot of people seem to hate her for whatever reason, she was far from perfect, but all things considered I think she did fine as CEO and I never got the hate. It can’t be easy to manage a company as big and complex as YouTube.

Technology@lemmy.world•ChatGPT’s much-heralded Mac app was storing conversations as plain textEnglish
11·2 years agoDon’t a lot of people also keep their tax information as plain text in their PC? If someone’s really worried about that stuff being leaked I think it’s on them to download VeraCrypt or smth, and also not to use ChatGPT for sensitive stuff knowing that OpenAI and Apple will obviously use it as training data.

921·2 years agoMaybe they should try using Claude 3.5 Sonnet to write more secure code for their systems. I’ve heard it’s the best LLM out there when it comes to coding 🤡



I’d allow it, but then put some hidden white text in my resume to manipulate the AI into giving me a higher score.
