Same with something like conscious. We do not understand it well enough for any definition to fit.

I think that a good definition for consciousness is the subjective experience of it feeling like something to be. It's the fact that there's qualia to existence. I don't see a reason for why we would need to solve the hard problem of consciousness in order to define a term we use to describe it. As far as I know we don't understand gravity either but everyone still understands that term.

According to most dictionary definitions for "intelligence" the bar is quite low for a system to be considered "intelligent"

  • The ability to acquire, understand, and use knowledge.
  • the ability to learn or understand or to deal with new or trying situations
  • the ability to apply knowledge to manipulate one's environment or to think abstractly as measured by objective criteria (such as tests)
  • the act of understanding
  • the ability to learn, understand, and make judgments or have opinions that are based on reason
  • It can be described as the ability to perceive or infer information; and to retain it as knowledge to be applied to adaptive behaviors within an environment or context.

YOLO, DeepFace, AlphaGo, AlphaZero, Tesla FSD, AlphaFold, IBM Watson, DeepStack, Midjourney ...

AI is in no way synonymous with LLMs.

I guess this is kind of like asking why don't ugly people date eachother - because they don't want to date an ugly person.

I have separate filter lists for both, posts and comments but I need to keep adding new ones every day. I guess "Mar a lago" is the one I'm adding today.

This is just one of the many reasons I have no interest in new cars. If it needs an internet connection then I'm not buying it. There are very few things I need my vehicle to be able to do and having access to internet isn't one of them. I don't even like that my truck has automatic wipers - I vastly prefer the traditional ones. Hell, I don't even need the radio.

Used to be saturday and sunday but now as self-employed my day off besides the weeked is when ever I feel like so or don't have any work orders.

Personally I'm longing for more discussion about ideas and less about events and definitely less about people.

I filtered out all these words associated with current political headlines and now 2/3 of the threads on my front page are hidden despite me not even following a single political instance other than world news ones. Just goes to show how toxic this place has gotten recently.

Often when I see a spot like this I like imagining how I'd make it as cozy and functional as possible if I had to live there and had a moderate access to resources.

15 - an alcoholic neighbour of a friend of mine saw me an my 2 friends hanging at a playground at night and invited us for a drink. He was quite drunk already and passed out pretty soon after so we stole the rest of his beer and wine and went to my friend's place to continue drinking. Pretty fun experience all in all. R.I.P. Eki.
