I would make a toxic relationship joke but this shit is just not funny.

It became downright personal for me. Its about accessibility.

My brain works a certain non typical way which is challenging to live with at best.

Sudden advertisements hits me like a physical punch in my face.

The ui focus on everything new rather then a nice subscription view with filters meant i who does not watch daily would frequently miss new uploads from the channels i do like.

I felt like i was in a toxic relationship being pushed to watch on their terms while openly hating that i protect myself from ad-sault by using blockers.

I realize i did not need things to be this way and am smart enough to build and alternative.

Now i have a yt-dlp script downloaded the latest uploads from chosen channels straight to jellyfin and also a selfhosted invidious with custom tweaks for everything i dont want to spend storage space on.

Basicly i take 100% of what i liked and never have to visit the website directly again.

They are waging war on invidious, it breaks on occasion. Yt-dlp though, stable as a rock.

Normal milk is still mostly water so basically everything turns in some kind of dense rancid cheese?

Learning to properly configure pre existing drives with archinstall was an adventure on its own.

I thought CoPilot was just a rebagged ChatGPT anyway?

Hahaha. No. (Though your not Complety wrong)

Copilot relies on a few different llms and tries to pick the best one for the job cheapest microsoft thinks it can get away with.

I was given a paid copilot license for work and i used to have chatgpt pro before i moved to claude.

This “paid enterprise tier” is by far the dummest llm i have ever used. Worse then gpt 3.5

Tbf they don’t really claim that when you read the research, thats mostly media hype and ceo assholes spinning words.

Its good at lots specific tasks like rewriting emails and summarising gives text, short roleplay, boilerplate code. Some undiscovered uses.

Anthropic latest claims they would not hire their own ai because of how hard it failed at the test they give, They didnt do that expecting validation but to measure how far we are still off from ai doing meaningful full work.

Zombies are people too. Technically humanity “lives” on.

What really grinds my ears:

Hyperlinks about alledged tools that are just links to another article about said tool.

Different context but the first time I heard about this it was touted as the future for VR

Feishin on pc

Amperfly on ios

Remember how China is a police state and Chinese companies have to provide state access to all their data which is why you should not use Chinese technology.

The U.S is maybe 2 thin documents different in how it’s setup. If you use U.S products then privacy from the US gov is an illusion.

The message in detroid become human seems to be we would go full extermination out of fear of losing our spot on top of the foodchain. Which does seem plausible.

What i really didnt like though was how androids were designed to suffer

They had no ability to shut themselves off, if you kept abusing them they react and respond like real people. They where forced to stay sentient in their single body.

This is also why they had to experience standing in the back of the bus just for the narrative. Could have just send a drone. Could also just shut down the body while traveling and do something in cyberspace instead.

If there is one thing certain about digital “life” its that it wont have the same restrictions as us and a body is optional and basically a set of clothes.

While i did enjoy Detroid it was designed around its own pre set narrative rather then explore what could emerge organicaly if machines became sentient. I could not really take it serious because of that.

Ai can be way more then just a single llm though.

Agi and Asi still mean human level and beyond human level ai.

Wether the concepts are archievable in our lifetime is an entirely different matter.

I bet this rhetoric goes so hard, the moment we reach an economicly usefull “agi” it will be all hands on board to stop it from going ASI.

They specifically want ai that can follow orders without thinking for themselves.

What a stat.

Sometimes i go 50 times further then other times.

It kinda depends on where i am going.

Some llms have a deepsearch feature where it goes trough 400+ webpages taking multiple minutes. But usually i just need it to rewrite part of an email.

We would like to contact you for job offer in the same role as your current.

We cant pay you as much per hour but we can give you more hours to match it.

This is also a good beginner way to learn about self hosting in docker.

Freetube can make a great backup for when google inevitably breaks something.

And for thise videos you really cant miss there is always yt-dlp scripted to download a channels latests video on a schedule straight to jellyfin of course.

I have not visited the youtube website in more then a year.

For a country the size of the us a hunderd is a very small amount.

There are troubled teen services where parents pay to have their “problem” kids “legaly” abducted to send to reeducation camps. Suprise suprise they return with ptsd and tell stories of both torture and other abuse. Those “legal” institutions can have 100+ kids enrolled any given time.

I am also sure you heard of Epstein. These horrors definitely exist on very big scales with huge network as fucked up as that is.

I would personally argue that fixing the law means getting rid of the notion of intellectual property all together.

In my own reasoning someone copying me is the highest form of flattery and i would still have an edge understanding the properties of own idea better then the copycat does.

Its a huge limiter on human progress and absolutely non sensical in situations where multiple people just happen to have a similar idea. As it stands now an employee could invent the cure to cancer, the employer claiming it and then putting it in a vault to never use and bar anyone from creating it.

Naturally such idea of abolishing copyright receives lots of criticism from many people because we would have to solve other problems that copyright now aims to fix but i don’t think that justifies the damage it does.
