@Ulrich @ggppjj does it help to compare an image generator to an LLM? With AI art you can tell a computer produced it without “knowing” anything more than what other art of that type looks like. But if you look closer you can also see that it doesn’t “know” a lot: extra fingers, hair made of cheese, whatever. LLMs do the same with words. They just calculate what words might realistically sit next to each other given the context of the prompt. It’s plausible babble.

@BlueBaggy @corbin as a tiny-handed person, I resent being called “no one”

@MystikIncarnate @tiredofsametab I quite like this framing from a UK ad. https://youtu.be/V6ChTqII-Yk sometimes it’s just not the best tool for the job.

Yep and a street with dead storefronts increasingly becomes a dead street.

@Witchfire @Soup it’s illegal in London but not elsewhere in the UK. The stupid thing, though, is that it’s illegal everywhere in the UK to *drive* on the pavement. But you can’t punish the driver of a stationary car for driving on the pavement if you didn’t see them do it. Technically maybe they flew? Airlifted in?

(Plus also enforcement of most driving infractions is super lax here)
