I couldn‘t get through more than a paragraph of this article, but it sounds like the takeaway is that HCR helped save a woman from being married to an insufferable choad?

If stupid and offensive comments made candidates unelectable, we’d be living in a very different country.
I have plenty of misgivings about Crockett, but after watching ”safe choice“ Cal Cunningham turn into a disaster of a candidate, I’ve accepted that I don’t know what makes someone electable.

A lot of too-clever-by-half Democrats thought Trump would be unelectable in 2016. Texas is a stretch for Dems anyway... let‘s see what happens in the primary

I tend to agree… the Schleiermacher view of translation has always appealed to me.

They were probably just there to applaud and admire— much like the Kennedy Center, presidential Medical and Cognitive Exams are very “hot” right now

sans serif fonts actually are suboptimal for Italian because lo and lo can be confused, as can Il and Il
Also people named Al across the land are calling for the return of serifs

Being seen by acquaintances? Bad.
By strangers? Also bad.
I have this vague memory of being mortified when the family car went through a toll booth because I thought the attendant was judging me somehow. It sounds insane but I think it was just middle school.

Of course, the kind of humanities exposure that the vast majority of students get in the current system is very different from the level of specialization and commitment needed to be an English Literature professor (or an erudite Nazi for that matter).

Miller is obviously a piece of garbage, but I feel just as much contempt for the Fox bobbleheads who sit there and let him spew his bigoted lies.

I’m much closer to number 2. But there are some things that LLMs can do which Google never could do very well (for me, this includes translations of phrases in various Italian dialects-- that was much more difficult before Gen AI came along).

I don’t think there’s anything in that article which makes it reasonable or kind to personally chastise people as tree-killers because they used an AI to spellcheck, when it seems clear that all of us do many optional things on a daily basis whose environmental impact is equally or more damaging.

just advocating for a modicum of consistency in the arguments we make about AI, cheers!

I don’t think I’ve seen a convincing case environmental impacts are a reason it’s wrong.
LLM use is pernicious in lots of ways, but I don’t see how it’s inherently more environmentally damaging than other sorts of common internet use (or even, printing out your work and correcting it with a pen!)

To be honest, how it compares is very complicated! Which is why I’m a bit uncomfortable with “you are killing trees” being used as a cudgel to attack AI use in general, seemingly as a way to bolster other — often extremely valid— criticisms of AI and its impact on society.

Ok, but ”there’s no value in AI and there is value in the streaming videos I watch“ is a normative claim about AI that seems to take the discussion out of the realm of environmental impact.

you‘re absolutely right about the training part.. but the “unasked for“ part means that searching Google is now using AI, so should we be chastising people for googling as well?
