It is such a pity that they are not implementing any kind of disk encryption.

Would you like to recommend a model that does not produce errors and can be relied on like a traditional computer, please.

You certainly know that it happened not by accident that traditional computers are producing reliable results, a lot of work went into this.

Computers must produce reliable results, they are simply not useful if not.

People will understand that at some point, but a lot of damage already has been done.

As this phenomenon is so common, do we have enough science about it to make it a base for laws, so future generations could avoid this state of collective psychosis it seems to lead to?

How do you implement that? Would you like to explain, I am very interested!

How do you decide what is exceptional when you have only silence to compare to?

I guess you misunderstood my comment. You absolutely need to publish some kind of report or article or - oh, yes, let’s call it paper, that’s how it’s called, to make yourself heard / better understood in relevant circles. Just using language in a forum is not enough. You can downvote as much you like, it doesn’t change the fact I am trying to explain, you need to put work into making people understand your position.

Thank you very much for your input! Would you please publish a proper paper with references to code of the project that proves your statements, that would be incredibly helpful. Also it would be of great importance to backup your words with some facts!

Probably these pelicans are just some kind of a sarcastic reaction to the AI situation, however I just would like to motivate the author to step up to a much more important question: are the models outputs reliable?

That means are they trustworthy, or simply said true.

There is a science behind getting computers to produce reliable and correct results.

Current AI products still do not conform to that goal and therefore are not usable.

Instead of making this tech usable behind closed doors, they are selling unfinished products that produce errors and people are already dying from it!

It seems to be of more importance to test the product presented on this issue instead of drawing pictures.

Please use your professional skills for something useful, thank you very much!

Just imagine we could buy one piece of hardware where we could run all our software on, wouldn’t that be awesome? We could call it a „Personal Computer“ and it could start a revolutionary new way of doing business independent of gatekeepers! Freedom for free people!

It is much more important to discuss the fact that the models still produce wrong results.

This type of product would not have been published in a world where we assumed that computers must produce reliably correct results.

The distributed training collective is a good idea, let’s discuss details:

A) How to prevent malicious injection of bad training data?

B) How to handle copyright violations, will participants be responsible and will they have to pay the creators?

C) Can this create an income stream for content creators and how to avoid abuse, eg feeding with AI content?

So many more, but let’s focus on these before we break things fast because we didn’t think about them.

Is Signal still a trusted company in the industry? They are based in the USA.

Code executed by user can do what user can do. What is the point you are trying to make?

Yes, of course there are still users out there that execute all software under the same account.

Inability to use the tools at hand to protect your data is not a technical issue.

It’s basically the official business model of the US now, have you spent the last two years on a yacht without contact to the world?

It would be great if you hacked your website to be better usable on a smaller mobile device! I need to zoom in to read, but then I also need to scroll sideways because of fixed layout.

You can do both, achieve a cool retro style and publish in a more modern format that supports multiple output devices.

The next class of problems to solve for future generations is how to survive on a hot planet and how to recover from the damage done by reckless lunatic profiteering assholes.
