7777332215··on Humanity isn't ready for the coming intelligence explosion
The AI companies are trying to manufacture the appearance of what they foretold before it all falls apart horribly.
7777332215··on Web Browsers on Video Game Consoles
They are used to exploit known vulns to get arbitrary read write, calls. For cheating. Both freebsd kernel exploits and browser exploits.
7777332215··on California moves to exempt Linux from its age-verification law after backlash
Ah, but what about my internet connected TI 84 calculator?
7777332215··on Going full AI engineer, not touching code anymore
People using google translate to speak a language. Except the language contains more complexity, meaning, and compression that the writer can't describe without using more words/tokens than it would be to actually write with the same precision. They could instead use better tools to achieve equal results with higher confidence.
7777332215··on Task Paralysis and AI
Average drug connesiuer activities
7777332215··on DeepSeek V4 – almost on the frontier
Hi there I use your service. It's great. But I have a few requests... Please support crypto payments...? Also you are missing some open source models (qwen 30b 3a, Deepseek 4 flash).
7777332215··on I quit. The clankers won
I thought the same as the person you replied to. For me, the solution is to stop coming here as often and instead read traditional literature.

Soon to remove my access entirely to this website.

7777332215··on GitHub is once again down
Minecraft is a trick up their sleeve yet to be used. Manipulate and indoctrinate the youth.
7777332215··on Microsoft's "fix" for Windows 11
Which kind of poisons? Can you list more?
7777332215··on AI coding is gambling
The problem with AI coding is that you no longer own the foundational tools.
7777332215··on I don't use LLMs for programming
A large issue is that I am not going to give up my private source code/IP to be trained on. As an individual, not a billion dollar enterprise.
7777332215··on Ask HN: Please restrict new accounts from posting
Same, though I'm also surprised how easy I can make new accounts for this site. But I love that. Hope it doesn't require me to jump through a bunch of hoops in the future.
7777332215··on How Big Diaper absorbs billions of extra dollars from American parents
DaaS
7777332215··on Why it takes you and an elephant the same amount of time to poop (2017)
Maybe he will get so offended you were smelling his shit and commented on it that he reports you to the top ranking officials of the organization resulting in the death penalty.
7777332215··on System76 on Age Verification Laws
Don't see how anyone is gonna make me do anything. Just evade anything like this through various means and opt out of things that reduce your quality of life (by destroying your freedom and making you a slave)

Why bother posting ai garbage
7777332215··on [dead]
Only use chatting to get answers for various things, often cross referenced with Google results, dedicated forums, and reddit. For programming/software work I use it to try to find problems with my architectural/design decisions, find new libraries, and best practices. I do not use it for code gen, instead I leverage high level deterministic (non ai) tools to do more with less code.
7777332215··on The Engine Behind the Hype
Even with human verification, people are going to verify, then conduct bot activity. And worse, use other people's identities to verify, then spam.
7777332215··on The Engine Behind the Hype
Unfortunately it is seemingly being overran by bots. What's the solution? Just read curated lists of blogs directly?
7777332215··on We hid backdoors in ~40MB binaries and asked AI + Ghidra to find them
I know they said they didn't obfuscate anything, but if you hide imports/symbols and obfuscate strings, which is the bare minimum for any competent attacker, the success rate will immediately drop to zero.

This is detecting the pattern of an anomaly in language associated with malicious activity, which is not impressive for an LLM.

7777332215··on Ask HN: How do you employ LLMs for UI development?
I conjure the fury of one thousand suns and unleash my swarm of agents to complete the task with precision and glory.
7777332215··on Ask HN: Want to move to use a "dumb" phone. How to make the switch?
For why? Get a pixel, install graphene. And use the utilities that serve you. Text/voice communications, GPS, MP3 music player (if you listen to music), a web browser. Maybe google translate and your banking apps (or use a browser for either).

There is no place for garbage like Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, or YouTube on your phone. It's a device for utility, not entertainment consumption.

7777332215··on Ask HN: Share your vibe coded project
Every vibe coded website always has the same vibe
7777332215··on The Sideprocalypse
What kind of physical products and what kind of customers?
7777332215··on New Nick Bostrom Paper: Optimal Timing for Superintelligence [pdf]
Most other species of monkeys and apes are critically endangered or extinct, and where are the other hominians?

Do the most powerful humans exploit, abuse, or harm other humans? Directly, indirectly through their actions, or otherwise. Do they have any regard for their wellbeing beyond serving themself?

7777332215··on New Nick Bostrom Paper: Optimal Timing for Superintelligence [pdf]
Not that an artificial intelligence has to behave like a human, but rich and powerful humans, even ones who can just be classified as middle upper class, are very rarely altruistic and primarily look out for themself.
7777332215··on New Nick Bostrom Paper: Optimal Timing for Superintelligence [pdf]
How am I being edgy? And why do you have the assumption that any kind of future AI is an LLM search engine? It's not, it has nothing to do with LLMs. It's a equivalent function to a humans brain using the same amount of energy, and can be synthesized and mass produced on demand.

I never said humans suck. I just don't want to be replaced or killed in my lifetime. I don't even use LLMs for writing code because I despise those companies.

7777332215··on I'm not worried about AI job loss

Choose to die

7777332215··on I'm not worried about AI job loss
What shall I need the bunker for?
7777332215··on New Nick Bostrom Paper: Optimal Timing for Superintelligence [pdf]
Sure. An advanced artificial life could decide to not expand its resources. Could you use your imagination to tell me some of the potential reasons?

An advanced artificial life form could decide to... coexist with humans on an already overpopulated planet?

Do you believe it's simply not within reach? Do you think an artificial life form will self destruct? Do you not believe that there is any way that an artificial life form is not the next step of evolution? There are many such times where a species outcompeted another, why couldn't it be the same here?

I'm not talking about LLMs, I'm talking about a system that can truly think like a good human scientist. I'm not a fan of AI replacing humans and it's labor. But I recognize it as a real threat to humanity.
