In what way is it meaningfully different? Does the intent of the creators of an LLM – a kind of system notorious for being a black box – fundamentally change the outcomes of what it says? It's spouting propaganda either way.
Please don’t be deliberately obtuse. You can do better than that.
Condescending attitude aside, don't bring up an irrelevant scenario if you don't want me to point out its irrelevance.
Are we in a court?
Reading philosophy texts that were written a hundred years ago and haphazardly translated 75 years ago can be a challenge.
For a human, at that. I get that you feel it works for you, but personally, I would trust an LLM to understand it (insofar as that's a thing they can do at all) even less.
There's 2-3 users who post about China/Russia to an extraordinary degree. I could mention them here, but for the sake of avoiding potential harassment (however unlikely) I'd rather not publicly single them out. Suffice to say if you spend a decent amount of time here you probably know who they are.
I find it obsessive and obnoxious at best. At worst, I start to wonder if there are more accounts doing it than there are people behind them.
That's a distinction without a difference.
I'll be honest, I really couldn't care less if Broken Windows theory is correct or not. I don't think it'd even matter so much whether it was, provided our response to it was a kind and gentle one that actually tries to help people rather than disappear them.
Unfortunately, such an approach is one that cops are fundamentally incompatible with.
Sorry, what? I don't know where you think you are, but this site is pretty pro-Palestine. Even the pro-Israel people here don't sound as insane as what you just said.
I really do not understand how you would manage to read my posts so poorly. Maybe you need to spend more time cooling off before you start writing, or maybe something's going on in your life, I don't know. I do not know you.
Either way, several of the things you mention here were once again huge misinterpretations of me or outright ignore things I've said, and it's clearly not worth it trying to talk to you anymore. I can no longer trust in your interactions being in good faith. Goodbye.
I have already expressed my doubts as to the trustworthiness of the article's sources regarding the companies in question being controlled by North Korea directly, so I don't understand why you'd reference the very same article as a justification as to why my suspicions are wrong.
The rest of your post is a lot of stuff that I've heard time and time again. Things like "North Korea is a dystopian hellscape where everyone is dying to leave or dying outright" is the kind of thing that I keep seeing people state as though it's common sense. That is to say, it's obvious, and needs no further thought or consideration. And the way NK is described, you'd think it was the perfection of totalitarianism, with scarcely any flaws in its population control. I find this level of success a difficult sell. This is all worsened by the fact that the United States has a vested interest in people believing that places like China and NK are basically Mordor. Put them all together, and I'd hope you can see why I might not take this all at face value.
But I'm honestly not interested in debating if North Korea's really as hellish as so many have said. I think it's an awful country with an awful, dictatorial government, and whether or not it's as awful as is claimed is not something I care for. I can't fix the place.
But I do care for the defaulting assumption of bad faith on my part and repeated uncharitable readings of my posts. I at no point ever made any claims about Tardigrada, nor have I cast any doubt upon their character anywhere in this thread. My criticisms were aimed squarely at the article and the sources it used. Coming back to this thread to see paragraphs written at me and everyone else with a similar opinion to me that do feel like they cast doubt upon my character is not a fun thing to see in my inbox when I come to the site.
It is impossible for civilians to do this. In an absolute sense.
I know of nothing whatsoever that proves this. The article certainly doesn't clarify anything to that effect.
Lastly, the aggressive countering nature of this comment was unnecessary if you were merely seeking clarification.
It was four words, without any emphasis. I deliberately wrote my comment to be simple and calm. Any aggression you've interpreted is on you, not me, and I suspect you only read it that way due a to a pre-existing negative opinion of me.
This has two issues with it that are sourced from the fact that most people here are likely from the States or similar. Namely:
This aside, I personally am irritated by the quantity moreso than anything else. As I said elsewhere, it's the same few users, and I find it obsessive. It stops sounding to me like "I want people to be aware of particular issues from China" and starts sounding to me like "I want to bombard people with all possible negativity about China until they hate everything related to the place as much as I do."
Thanks to these folks, Beehaw virtually always has at least one post about China or Russia on its front page. Often several. Credit where it's due; I've seen a pro-Palestine post here and there, which I appreciate. But Christ, I'm sick of the rest. Blocks are fair, but I feel like that just hides the issue rather than solving it. I feel like I'm seeing a propaganda mill in action, and I don't like the idea of just ignoring it.
