Also, we’ve had excellent evidence that many powerful people, including the president of a world superpower, has done literally that exact same thing except with non-consenting children, and nothing happened.

4·2 days agoWhen the first cars started selling, they were really just toys for the rich. Several places required a flagman to signal they were coming, so a guy had to walk in front of it all the time when in a town or city.
Also, going 40km/h in this (using a very generous definition of the word “in”) on 1900s roads sounds absolutely terrifying.

4·2 days agoThere were quite a few electric cars around back then. Making one of those would be a lot easier, I think. Getting an original is probably a bit out of most people’s price class though:

In 1900, the majority of cars sold were electric, but thats mostly because all cars were really just expensive toys for the rich. Once they became actual transport, petroleum and gasoline started to win hands down over the battery tech from back then.

Fuck AI@lemmy.world•I just realized something about the so called AI tools: they're made for "normies"
17·2 days agoSo, I do LARP. And LARP means you roleplay as someone else. To roleplay as someone else, you need to know a few things. For example, I play a pirate, so I need to know what a forecastle is, what a capstan does, who the boatswain is and that a mizzen is the third mast. I am entirely capable of inventing a 10 minute story that involves lots of nautical terms about chasing and boarding a ship. That story will be entirely plausible and will impress anyone who doesn’t know anything about sailing a full-rigged ship. It might even be correct, but not on purpose.
And if you put me in a room with someone who DOES know about sailing anything larger than 4 meters, I’m going to fail as soon as they start talking. Because obviously I only know enough to pretend to be a sailor. I can sound like one just fine, but I’m not.
LLMs are larping at being experts. They can’t actually do anything, they can only sound convincing. They might even be right, but they won’t be right on purpose.
Which is 1 month more than ww1
Edit: and a year and a week longer than Russia was in ww1

Excuse me while I wash my hands after typing that.
After five minutes: “well fine, off you go then!”
Also pretty up there is “I’d have to grow it inside my body, and then move it outside my body”.
The list of things rabbits will fuck is a lot longer than the list of things they won’t.
