Movie critics have a pretty good idea what sloppy writing and contrived coincidences look like. That’s exactly what I was asking about, and the first few points did address that reasonably well.

Risky click of the day. Was totally worth it though.

With popular movies, there’s no shortage of critical blog posts and other material. All of those are obviously already in the training material. However, anything that didn’t make a gazillion dollars probably isn’t that well documented, so the model might not have much to say write about it. It will just fill those gaps with random word salad that makes sense as long as you have enough cocaine in your nostrils.

If I had asked about Casablanca, Psycho, Titanic or Avengers, the answer would have probably been a bit less crappy.

Well of course… Rule 34. No exceptions.

Wow! That’s pretty intense.

9/10, would recommend.

Just had a discussion with an LLM about the plot of a particular movie, particularly the parts where the plot falls short. I asked it to list all the parts that feel contrived.

It gave me 7 points that were ok, but the 8th one was 100% hallucinated. That event is not in this movie at all. It totally missed the 5 completely obivous contrived screw-ups in the ending of the movie too, so I was not very convinced of this plot analysis.

It used to be funny when someone wrote a two sentence long “search query” on google. Nowadays, you can literally do that on any LLM and you’ll get a summary based on a few results. There are a whole bunch of problems with that, but I’ll just let the people from !fuck_ai@lemmy.world to elaborate.

Anyway, I gave this query to DDG: “I just bought a bag of carrots and I don’t know what to do with them. Should I make soup or something? What are the other ingredients I would need for that?”

and got this response:

“You can make a simple carrot soup with just a few ingredients. You’ll need carrots, onions, garlic, broth, and cream or coconut milk. Some recipes also include butter, olive oil, and spices like curry paste or ginger for extra flavor.”

Gotta say, that wasn’t too bad. I didn’t need to open a single cooking blog to figure out what I need.

Spice that up with human meat and you get next level scifi horror. Basically a hybrid abomination of ethnic cleansing + genocide + war crimes + capitalism + meat industry. Basically everything you hate about the modern world squeezed into a single package.

Oh that’s just a logical clean way to do it. I was thinking about something far worse. You know, like modern chicken industry, but made out of nightmares.

“One taco, no chicken, no ice.”

That’s going to be a pretty interesting order to hear.

There’s a prompt for a horror scifi book. Just imagine what it takes to produce that meat, where do you get it from, who gets to become food, and all that. This opens up some very dark and truly dystopian possibilities. If you thought cyberpunk was awful, that was just a warm-up lap. We’re only getting started here.

Does the same apply to tacos as well? 🌮

Well, that’s the public-facing side of the story. Lending GPUs to AI startups seems like a pretty risky strategy. If NVIDIA is lending out a lot of hardware, while AMD isn’t, that puts these companies in very different positions.

Cancer of the modern world…

Maybe AMD is betting on NVIDIA suffering more from the oncoming crash. If that happens, AMD could increase their market share.

That’s a very interesting deep dive. Didn’t mind this wall of text at all.

Is AMD also involved in the same shenanigans? Sounds like the AI bubble pop could also mess up the GPU market.

Ok, so silksong was about 6 years in development. Maybe a bit overdue, but not too bad.

I meant from 0.000 to 2.0

I’m out of the loop. Did it take longer than it took for Cyberpunk 2077 to reach v 2.0? The v 1.0 doesn’t count because that should have been labeled “broken alpha early access”.

I’m willing to make a compromise. One before, one after.
