I thought they invest any surplus into government debt securities?

As for Lemmy, there are many articles from lesser known sources that get positive attention here that seem to use AI but do not get removed

Well, Lemmy is not one thing, your instance for example is explicitly in favor of boosting AI-generated content. So that behavior is what I would expect if I had an account there. I personally wouldn't go there expecting to see links to human-made content.

I don't believe it's possible for human writers to write both authentically and also in a way that is coded to verify they are human (as the article discusses) that an LLM couldn't eventually come to replicate. I also don't believe it's possible for an LLM to write from their unique perspective. Therefore, I believe the strongest method for verifying ones own human-ness is to write from one's own unique perspective.

signalling humanity in a way that resists automated systems

I think I would understand your perspective better if you gave an example or two of what signals could be used?

Social security is a bad investment for an individual, but most people are terrible investors if they invest into their future at all. So by giving everyone that baseline, it helps out everyone else, including the rich. And is therefore a fantastic investment for everyone.

Clever! The rare actually useful LLM!

Hah, that's a great example. The Room is nothing if not interesting!

[-] Kirk@startrek.website 7 points 21 hours ago

That's because LLMs cannot be interesting, even something poorly written can be interesting if it was written from a human perspective.

Yep, or heck- write really badly! It can't do that either!

If you’re reading, you want to determine whether what you are reading is a waste of your time as quickly as possible.

I have honestly not heard of this behavior, and I myself certainly don't do this. I wouldn't determine "what's worth reading" in the middle of reading, but well before I start. For example, if a piece is published somewhere I trust, or a friend recommended it, or say, it was posted in a Lemmy community known to have good moderation.

Like I said I understand why an artist would have a desire to present as authentic, but that is an unwinnable game because:

  1. The AI is also "trying to present as authentic" (any automated filtering system is beatable)
  2. Adjusting one's behavior so as to appear a particular way is definitionally inauthentic.

On one hand I understand the need to feel seen as authentic, but on the other, I think there is a danger in giving into the hysteria surrounding slop by twisting one's work into knots. If it's good, it's good. As Martin Scorsese said: "The most personal is the most creative."

I know that I've never personally never seen any LLM generated content that was interesting beyond it's novelty. Adam Savage also said (paraphrasing bc I can't find it) "Sharing your point of view is what makes something interesting and I have yet to see AI-generated content that has a point of view".

Yes! Went from "what a fun retro cartoon" to "oh, I need to share this!"

Out of the box support it's going to be Bazzite or CachyOS. Both great options but I lean Bazzite because of it's immutability.
