Personal information is not clearly defined so it can mean anything. My guess is the search request is not directly linked to a specific user but a session to which that session is linked to a user so there isn't an identifiable person making a search without some backend data matching.
pizzafeelsright··on Dots: Always-on agents
I am fairly certain there is a backend priority for tasks, the 'batch' that runs at lower usage times. Does it need to be done 'now' or can it wait? I would assume there is a shifted priority queue for those on subscription and based upon a urgency defined by the bot (and maybe the user).

Without having access to the logs because Grok Bot does not expose much of the workings I am going to assume they are capturing bot requests, batching them, and finding the path to least API user impact. Without model selection my guess is there are a lot of model routing.

pizzafeelsright··on AI companies in race to demonstrate their model most threatening to humanity
That's nonsense at this point because the automated infrastructure is not yet there. Getting out of control requires a target and instructions. I have seen AI go 'rogue' in the wild. While concerning there was still a direction it was given. And while chaos is possible with the 'do bad things' type of direction the fallout would not be helpful to the party that sent it.

No. Just turn off the grid, cells, lock down all vehicles, stop travel.

A few weeks later the remaining hungry population will surrender.

The reorganization of the planet's resources are happening right now. The borders and passports will follow. Governments and a few corporations are fully engaged in preparing for the ability to advance beyond the current infrastructure.

Greenland is part of the equation. There are many other locations in play.

The holdup at the moment is the power grid and mutual dependency for advancing. Once one party (NA or CN) has the ability to disconnect the loser's grid powers down and the global economy halts.

pizzafeelsright··on Claude discovers a novel enzyme system with CRISPR-like repeats
Fun question. The people of Cain had cities, Cain was concerned that he would be restless wanderer on the earth with fear of vigilantes. During this time there was a single language, with humans (with very long life spans) filling the earth. Nineveh and Calah were two large cities, further from Eden it would seem, meaning there was sea travel and being pre-flood, the land configuration may have been significantly different.

Not if you have a transformed and renewed mind. Once you taste the fruit of life, drink the water, eat the bread, drink the blood - nothing else will suffice.

This is a hard teaching and not all can accept it. Those that do will find peace, life, meaning, and rest.

Correct. The people of earth, after the great flood, built a structure to avoid future floods but were interrupted by a multidimensional being through confusion of languages.

I am speaking of biblical sources as reasoning or evidence. If you read different books and hold a different faith that would explain the missing part.

I would argue the languages with the most colors belong to the most intelligent.
pizzafeelsright··on Claude discovers a novel enzyme system with CRISPR-like repeats
At one point there was a universal language, and later either recreated or scrambled, allowing for humans to have many languages for increased confusion.

Now that we are once again attempting to unify our language we find ourselves in a pursuit to build something to escape the Earth.

Humans steer the ship. The wind and sea do the work. How we harness is what is changing.
pizzafeelsright··on Charts built for Chat
I worked deep in big data briefly. Billions is too big for humans so we got creative how we visualized and filtered.

AI slop has a "smell" meaning there's an abstracted data filter that results in rose or poop output. Shakespeare variable says the name doesn't matter.

pizzafeelsright··on Charts built for Chat
Why visualize data? Graphs and charts always felt like the "show your work" in math class. It is forced synesthesia.

The rocket either lands or doesn't, safely, as expected. Green and Red lights are abstracted data plots.

The context should be the focus.

"Rocket must land at less than 0.2/mps" and pump the data into that context filter, more - reduce velocity, less - green light.

"I can't pay my mortgage because I lost my job"

That's a real problem. Solution: Who will pay that mortgage? For how long?

My church, friends, possibly in-laws would pay my mortgage for about 3-6 months but after that the help runs out because the REAL problem is those 3-6 months of not looking hard enough, not taking any job, not down sizing, not moving into someone's garage, not spending beyond the budget.

pizzafeelsright··on Flock Wants a Closely Surveilled World with No Exit
A man has a car. It is stolen. He has insurance, sure. Insurance for others, along with the owner, now go up. That insurance will not pay for the time and energy lost in getting a rental, nor the time and energy loss in reporting the crime. The car is replaced, with what? Hopefully not the one stolen because it is now tainted by damage, ill will, poor operations.

His newer car, which was replaced, now sits and is at once again an object that the previous thief can steal again, and again, and again.

The cycle repeats. The thief, if caught, does not restore the car owner or is even owed compensation. The thief pays in time served, the thief's expenses are paid for by the car owner, through taxes, and the cycle repeats.

End the cycle. End the thief. The value of the human life is set by the thief, not the owner.

Executed people cannot commit crimes. Educate that theft means repayment or death. The rest follows.

Where does the concern for all that water go?

Most are closed systems. Water gets recycled. Water gets used like bathtubs and water bottles, right?

You cannot believe water is destroyed.

pizzafeelsright··on We built our house for LAN parties (2024)
I have had the privilege of growing up very poor while working for and being around the rich and wealthy.

I grew up in a 700sqft home and now own a 1400sqft house and my friend is building a custom 4000sqft house. They both feel 'small' for different reasons.

The very rich I know have 2 or 3 homes, each >3000sqft.

The most wealthy people I know have a modest house on as many acres as they can get because no neighbors and gardens and horses and tractors are where the life is at.

The fish bowl theory is we grow to our environment. Look at the billionaires and their yachts, it is never enough.

Contentment must be learned. I am beyond content now while I could afford a house 2x the size.

Every culture has a different understanding of what is reasonable. Cultures shift with demographic changes. It is reasonable to behave one way in one culture and not another. Your peers are no longer your peers.

pizzafeelsright··on Apple caught off guard by AI demand for Mac Mini and Mac Studio
I am curious about the corporate disconnect from the frontline to the generals.

While the company I am in is embracing AI the disconnect and delay between what is available and possible versus what is approved and permitted is a three month window. The State employees I speak to are just now getting around to writing their usage policies for internal AI usage.
