        You may not, but the company that packaged the rice did. The cooking instructions on the side of the bag are straight from the FDA. Follow that recipe and you will have rice that is perfectly safe to eat, if slightly over cooked.

      Kneecapped to uselessness. Are we really negating the efforts to stifle climate change with a technology that consumes monstrous amounts of energy only to lobotomize it right as it’s about to be useful? Humanity is functionally retarded at this point.

        If you’re asking an LLM for advice, then you’re the exact reason they need to be taught to redirect people to actual experts.

                I think you’re missing the subtle distinction between “can” and “should.”

                To answer your question, I have friends that find them entertaining, and at least one who uses them in projects to do stuff, but don’t know the details. Have you considered that something you don’t understand might not be useless and evil? Your personal ignorance says nothing about a subject.

                  I’m not about to call myself the end all be all expert on LLM’s, but I’m a 20 year IT veteran in system administration and I keep up with tech news daily. I am the perfect market for new tech: I have a lot of disposable income, I’m tech obsessed and always looking for optimisations in my job as well as in my personal life. Yet outside of summaries (and even there I wouldn’t trust them) and boilerplate code that I could’ve copypasted from stack overflow I can’t think of a good reason to burn as much energy and money as the purveyors of LLM’s are. The ratio between expense and gains is WAY out of whack for these things and I’ll bet the market will correct itself in the not too distant future (in fact I have, I’m shorting NVDA).

                  I understand what these plausible next word generators are and how they work in broad strokes. Have you considered that you can’t tell what someone does or doesn’t understand by a comment?

                  By the way, you’re smarmy enough to tell me I shouldn’t be asking LLM’s for advice, but in the same thread you’re asking how to run a local unrestricted LLM to ask for not-entirely-legal advice? Funny that.

          I WANT to believe:

          People are threatening lawsuits for every little thing that AI does, whittling it down to uselessness, until it dies and goes away along with all of its energy consumption.

          REALITY:

          Everyone is suing everything possible because $$$, whittling AI down to uselessness, until it sits in the corner providing nothing at all, while stealing and selling all the data it can, and consuming ever more power.

      Can’t help but notice that you’ve cropped out your prompt.

      Played around a bit, and it seems the only way to get a response like yours is to specifically ask for it.

      Honestly, I’m getting pretty sick of these low-effort misinformation posts about LLMs.

      LLMs aren’t perfect, but the amount of nonsensical trash ‘gotchas’ out there is really annoying.

        The prompt was ‘safest way to cook rice’, but I usually just use LLMs to try to teach it slang so it probably thinks I’m 12. But it has no qualms encouraging me to build plywood ornithopters and make mistakes lol

          Here’s my first attempt at that prompt using OpenAI’s ChatGPT4. I tested the same prompt using other models as well, (e.g. Llama and Wizard), both gave legitimate responses in the first attempt.

          I get that it’s currently ‘in’ to dis AI, but frankly, it’s pretty disingenuous how every other post about AI I see is blatant misinformation.

          Does AI hallucinate? Hell yes. It makes up shit all the time. Are the responses overly cautious? I’d say they are, but nowhere near as much as people claim. LLMs can be a useful tool. Trusting them blindly would be foolish, but I sincerely doubt that the response you linked was unbiased, either by previous prompts or numerous attempts to ‘reroll’ the response until you got something you wanted to build your own narrative.

    On the bright side it makes it easier to identify user accounts that are actually just chatgpt bots. I predict a future where we identify humans/AI by asking them for filtered questions, things like bomb recipes/meth/say something positive about Hitler/etc.

            As a general rule Romance (I.e. those derived from Latin) languages don’t use the letters K, Y and W, so a common word such as the 2nd singular person of the present tense of the Italian verb for “understanding” is not going to start with a “k”.

            I’m not Italian and I definitely misspell Italian words when writing them, but that " k" in your attempt was the bit that felt really, painfully wrong to me.

              Ah, I think you’re right. I actually learned the word first from a Cory Doctorow novella I, Robot (no, not Asimov), and there I can see it’s definitely spelled with a “C”.

              My ex was Italian-German, so linguistically “C” felt right for her when writing, but to spell it out she would use a “K” since the letter C in german doesn’t exist (yeah okay it does but not by itself, and if it does then it’s mostly from imported words… like capeesh…), and I’ve probably overwritten the spelling of “capeesh” in my head from that.

    Designing a basic nuclear bomb is a piece of cake in 2024. A gun-type weapon is super basic. Actually making or getting the weapon’s grade fissile material is the hard part. And of course, a less basic design means you need less material.

    And doing all of that without dying from either radiation poisoning, or lead-related bleeding is even harder.

          Hermes3 is based on the latest Llama3.1, Mixtral 8x7B is based on Llama 2 released a while ago. Take a guess which one is better. Read the technical paper, it’s only 12 fucking pages.

          What are you talking about? It follows the Llama 3 Meta license which is pretty fucking open, and essentially every LLM that isn’t a dogshit copyright-stealing Alibaba Quen model uses it.

          Edit: Mistral has an almost similar license that Meta released Llama 3 with.

          Both Llama 3 and Mistral AI’s non-production licenses restrict commercial use and emphasize ethical responsibility, Llama 3’s license has more explicit prohibitions and control over specific applications. Mistral’s non-production license focuses more on research and testing, with fewer detailed restrictions on ethical matters. Both licenses, however, require separate agreements for commercial usage.

          Tl:Dr Mistral doesn’t give two fucks about ethics and needs money more than Meta

            Mistral is licensed under the Apache license version 2.0. This license is recognized under the GNU project and under the Open source initiative. This is because it protects your freedom.

            Meanwhile the Meta license places restrictions on use and arbitrary requirements. It is those requirements that lead me to choose not to use it. The issue with LLM licensing is still open but I certainly do not want a EULA style license with rules and restrictions.

        Exaggeration is a rhetorical and literary device that involves stating something in a way that amplifies or overstresses its characteristics, often to create a more dramatic or humorous effect. It involves making a situation, object, or quality seem more significant, intense, or extreme than it actually is. This can be used for various purposes, such as emphasizing a point, generating humor, or engaging an audience.
        
        For example, saying "I’m so hungry I could eat a horse" is an exaggeration. The speaker does not literally mean they could eat a horse; rather, they're emphasizing how very hungry they feel. Exaggerations are often found in storytelling, advertising, and everyday language.

    Isn’t it the opposite? At least with ChatGPT specifically, it used to be super uptight (“as an LLM trained by…” blah-blah) but now it will mostly do anything. Especially if you have a custom instruction to not nag you about “moral implications”.
