I’m not saying I’m smarter than you but to me it looks like “Hey yeah we require age verification. So, anyway…”

A token easily bypassed “verification” law to set and forget. It’s basically the same level of security corrently keeping teenage boys off of PornHub.

Microsoft’s own servers run Linux. An in-house build IIRC named Azure Linux.

Your average legislator hears the word “Docker” and imagines a ship unloading cargo. Of course computers on ships need age verification! Voters will appreciate a crackdown on nautical child labor.

Yes, a liar and grifter saying something happened is definitely proof of it.

Are you claiming that the election was stolen? I assume you have proof if that’s the case and aren’t just talking out of your ass because you won’t admit that your country has given the rest of the world ample reason to ridicule you.

The pronoun “you” can be used in either the singular or plural form. I was obviously using it in the plural form, in keeping with my earlier comment about the average American. You, the collective of American citizens, elected the pedophile grifter.

There was something you could have done, but most of you decided to either vote for the pedophile grifter or abstain from voting. Trump isn’t some evil genius that plotted brilliantly to trick the people. He said exactly what he planned to do, and you still elected him. Twice.

Everybody with two brain cells to rub together knew this would be the result. The average American must be too stupid to tie their shoes and breathe at the same time.

I was referring to The Lord of the Rings.

So tue tldr is just what we already knew: LLMs predict the most likely word to come next and have no concept of “true” or “false” information.

Indeed, to have such a concept would require understanding that information and any AI that actually understood information wouldn’t be an LLM because LLMs are just fancy autocorrect.

“Seems” being the operating word here. But children think that Muppets are conscious. People lose their temper at self-checkout machines. Faithful of different religions attribute will and power to all sorts of idols and other inanimate objects like supposed fragments of a specific cross. The most famous work of fantasy fiction is about a malevolent piece of jewelry. Humans are very good at attributing consciousness to non-conscious entities. We are easily fooled in this respect.

Even if some putative AI may be conscious, an LLM is just something that looks up words in a database with probability weights attached. This technology cannot lead to consciousness.

What a terribly misleading post title.

The post title contains literally the entire OnlyOffice-related content of the article, which is titled “Why ODF and not OOXML”. Here’s the first paragraph:

Many interpreted the last article in this series as an attack on Microsoft for using the OOXML format against users’ interests. However, this was only one of my objectives, as I also wanted to raise users’ awareness of fake open-source software, such as OnlyOffice, which partners with Microsoft in a strategy to lock users in.

Everything after this is about closed vs open standards.
