They shouldn’t be so harsh to LLMs. They have something in common with humans after all. If you stick a patch cable with internet up theirs, they will become very talkative very quickly.
One thing that comes to mind is that prostitution, no matter how you spin it, is still a social job. If you get a problematic person like that in prostitution, there are good chances that said prostitute would be able to talk their customer out of doing some nonsense. If not for empathy, for the simple fact that there would be legal consequences for not doing so.
Do you think a glorified spreadsheet that people call husband would behave the same? Don’t know if it happened but one of these days LLMs will talk people into doing something very nasty and then it’s going to be no one’s fault again, certainly not the host of the LLM. We really live in a boring dystopia.
Edit: Also there’s this one good movie which I forgot the name of, about a person talking to one of these LLMs as a girlfriend. They have a bizarre, funny and simultaneously creepy and disturbing scene where the main character who’s in love with the LLM, hires a woman who puts a camera on her forehead to have sex with his LLM “girlfriend”.
Also, my quite human husband also voices his thoughts without a prompt. Lol. You only need to feed him to function, no internet required.
Since this is a repost, I’ll just repost my original comment as well:
Average Wuhan resident be like:

Genuinely curious how are publishers limiting physical media? I haven’t bought a blu-ray in a long while.
I highly suggest that you make ripped backups. I learned the hard way, I digitised my grandfather’s CD collection and some of his DVDs, some of which were already damaged beyond repair. Some of his broken DVDs are less than 20 years old. They are not scratched, they are in mint condition.
Because I’m uncreative, I’m just going to steal the joke from Sseth.
Because the vehicle in From Software’s game, Elden Ring, is called “Torrent”, I can’t wait for the next From Soft character “Punjabi Codex Denuvo, pre-cracked Novirus [MeGusta]”.
Casual reminder, Sony and Intel tried to tether Blu-ray discs to SGX DRM, which was killed just a few years after they introduced the standard, rendering all of your SGX DRM Blu-rays unplayable on PC. They disabled it so quickly, because people could use Intel SGX DRM for remote code execution in your machine, below the operating system and kernel level.
Also, if you have one of the CPUs which still has SGX DRM, congratulations, you have a hardware Trojan! Digital restrictions management is a cancer because look at what it does in reality, vs. what they say. Who came up with this?

Makes life more interesting, doesn’t it?
Better be HDR on OLED, or I’m not coming.
IMO the apple campus looks like a urinal. Fittingly.
Yes, and I agree with you. People should have choice of what format they use because different people have different needs.
I don’t hate AVIF inherently for its technology. I hate it for what it stands for. Namely, megacorporation Culture. One rogue manager has their feelings hurt and everyone bends over to accommodate them. Google has a fully SIMDified Rust decoder for JPEG XL that is fully standard compliant. But it doesn’t go into Chrome, because everyone just parrots the one guy that once made up some lie about it not “having public interest”. Best example is Google Interop 2025 not taking in JPEG XL. Literally every graphics software on the planet supports it, as well as multiple newspapers and CDNs want to use it, and I don’t mean the newspaper next door, I mean newspapers like The Guardian and CDNs like cloudflare. You can call Apple a lot, but the jpeg-xl implementation is some objective good for computing, Microsoft is slowly but surely rolling out support in Windows as well. Literally the only missing link in the chain is the Google Chrome browser, because it’s a monopoly.
And with that, I refuse to use it. Because if I were to use it and pump the numbers for AVIF, I would reinforce the blockade. Therefore I just can’t, even though the technology is very useful and that’s just another side of the Google Monopoly.
The newer iPhone models actually capture their images as JPEG XL and they have retired their HEIC images. All of Apple’s software has full native support for JPEG XL as well.
So technically, Jotaro doesn’t wear trousers in part 6, just shoes.
To be fair, none of this would have happened without Stallman, and I understand the criticism. But let’s remember, there are things that he did that were very positive for computing. If it weren’t for Stallman it is doubtful that we would have a free operating system to this day.
