The claim was “Yet most AI models can recite entire Harry Potter books if prompted the right way, so that’s all bullshit.”

In this test they did not get a model to produce an entire book with the right prompt.

For context: These two sentences are 46 Tokens/210 Characters, as per https://platform.openai.com/tokenizer.

50 tokens is just about two sentences. This comment is about 42 tokens itself.

I've seen the list on the party site. There were 3 .edu out of 219 emails total. 152 gmail, 17 hotmail/outlook, 18 protonmail, 2 4chan, and the rest were custom.

No .gov.

One of a few movies that could've used a "Fire!" was the intro of Robin Hood: Men in Tights (fire arrows, get it?), AND THEY DON'T EVEN DO IT!

I don't believe you - I believe he's looking at his phone. Show me the video.

Topologically speaking, the frog is a donut.

I asked ChatGPT to convert the text to common words:

"Academic writing is often hard to understand because it uses complicated words specific to a particular field, making it easier for experts to communicate with each other but harder for outsiders to follow. This keeps certain knowledge limited to a small group of people and maintains a cycle where only the educated or 'in' crowd can fully engage, while others are left out."

She ignored community feedback (I want customized channels back!) and turned YouTube into the dopamine riddled mess it is today.

Still, fuck cancer. My condoleances to her survivors.

This describes Christianity (to an extent). When I turned atheist (because I couldn't believe in God/Jesus anymore, not because I didn't want to) there is this very Church-shaped hole in your proverbial soul that needs time to close. It's a very sobering, yet lonely, way to live life, but due to the internet you don't find yourself lonely for too long, but I imagine it used to be a pretty terrifying way to live life pre-internet.

I am lucky my Christian family still loves me, and I know they only proselytize to me (every now and then) because they care.

Ladybird, the browser from SerentityOS, now has a non-profit behind it! The guy in the video is not Andreas, but Chris Wanstrath (former CEO from Github), and he's pumping some financial backing into this non-profit.

I for one am happy we're getting an alternative to the Chrome/Firefox duality we're stuck with.

I was able to do it for a restaurant once, where I was the first one to do so. I got 1.6+ million views on one image of the (then empty) restaurant. I'm pretty sure that's the peak of my online presence. It's all downhill from there.

It was my replacement of Skype, which was leaning hard into its enshittification around that time.
