My biggest problem with the concept of LLMs, even if they weren’t a giant plagiarism laundering machine and disaster for the environment, is that they introduce so much unpredictability into computing. I became a professional computer toucher because they do exactly what you tell them to. Not always what you wanted, but exactly what you asked for.

LLMs turn that upside down. They turn a very autistic do-what-you-say, say-what-you-mean commmunication style with the machine into a neurotypical conversation talking around the issue, but never directly addressing the substance of problem.

In any conversation I have with a person, I’m modeling their understanding of the topic at hand, trying to tailor my communication style to their needs. The same applies to programming languages and frameworks. If you work with a language the way its author intended it goes a lot easier.

But LLMs don’t have an understanding of the conversation. There is no intent.  It’s just a mostly-likely-next-word generator on steroids. You’re trying to give directions to a lossily compressed copy of the entire works of human writing.  There is no mind to model, and no predictability to the output.

If I wanted to spend my time communicating in a superficial, neurotypical style my autistic ass certainly wouldn’t have gone into computering. LLMs are the final act of the finance bros and capitalists wrestling modern technology away from the technically literate proletariat who built it.

BREAKING NEWS: The World Health Organization has issued a global mandate to abolish "male" and "female" as the colloquially accepted gender binary.
Moving forward, all are expected to identify as one to two Pokémon types.

Non-binary individuals have exclusive rights to the ??? type, the WHO stated.

a glaceon anthro, with hair replacing the head crest. wearing a pokeball-colored collar, a belt of pokeballs, and a satchel. she holds a pokeball on a hand, and she's looking to you confidently.

it's vee, but glaceon! meet glace! still confident as she always is.

the story behind glace is a bit silly. tl;dr: old RP character, repurposed as glaceon form of vee. you can also read here chaoticiak.neocities.org/oc-vee#forms

Sky as an artist, holding a paintbrush on one hand and a swatch on the other. He wears a belt with a pouch bag full of paint tubes, and a headset around his neck.

did you know Sky is an artist? i didn't either, but i think it's now canon. while this one is a painter, he does dabble in various forms of art!

commissioned @kaiera.furria.net for this amazingly cute piece!

Be careful folks, today is April Fool's Day, which means that the internet will be rife with misinformation and posts designed to deceive. Don't worry though, tomorrow we will be back to normal, and the internet will be rife with misinformation and posts designed to deceive.

Just realized the "problematic kink/media" thing is literally just the "video games make you violent" argument with a different coat of paint.

People playing shooters dont actually wanna shoot people by default, they're playing a game.

You can fill in the blanks with any kink, it's always the same

The bug where roaming Pokemon using Roar deactivates them permanently, was patched. (The bug where they have poor IVs remains.)

The official bugfix was implemented differently from the community bugfix, and by comparing them, a new bug was found:
