It's interesting to see that taking a "My way or the highway" approach seems to have actual repercussions. Almost as if nobody wants to work with you when you do that.
I know that I and many others have donated to KDE due to their vibrance and inclusivity in the conversation. They have panels where they actively ask what it is that users want to see (within the scope of some broader goals they've set for the year).

I think you are either too wealthy or too attached to city living to understand the point of these.
Tiny homes:
-
are affordable to anyone with almost any income, not just $80-100k+ a year incomes (which are practically mandatory now to buy a home in the current economy)
-
Can be set up literally anywhere that zoning allows for
-
A good choice for off-grid/prepper lifestyle
-
A good choice for solo living or for a couple to share with no kids

They would need to fix the SMS app first (lots and lots of bugs, not the least of which is that it likes to split MMS group chats up into separate 1 on 1 threads with every single participant as soon as you reply to the group)

I think we are just going to have to cordially disagree.

It is akin to the relativity problem in physics. Where is the center of the universe? What "grid" do things move through? The answer is that everything moves relative to one another, and somehow that fact causes the phenomena in our universe (and in these language models) to emerge.
Likewise, our brains do a significantly more sophisticated but not entirely different version of this. There are more "cores" in our brains that are good at differen tasks that all constantly talk back and forth between eachother, and our frontal lobe provides the advanced thinking and networking on top of that. The LLMs are more equivalent to the broca's area, they havent built out the full frontal lobe yet (or rather, the "Multiple Demand network")
You are right in that an AI will never know what an apple tastes like, or what a breeze on its face feels like until we give them sensory equipment to read from.
In this case though, its the equivalent of a college student having no real world experience and only the knowledge from their books, lectures, and labs. You can still work with the concepts of and reason against things you have never touched if you are given enough information about them beforehand.

Its almost as if the word "intelligence" has been vague and semi-meaningless since its inception...
Have we ever had a solid, technical definition of intelligence?

This problem is due to the fact that the AI isnt using english words internally, it's tokenizing. There are no Rs in {35006}.

I still believe they have the ability to reason to a very limited capacity. Everyone says that they're just very sophisticated parrots, but there is something emergent going on. These AIs need to have a world-model inside of themselves to be able to parrot things as correctly as they currently do (yes, including the hallucinations and the incorrect answers). Sure they are using tokens instead of real dictionary words, which comes with things like the strawberry problem, but just because they are not nearly as sophisticated as us doesnt mean there is no reasoning happening.
We are not special.

All of those options are to NIST-spec. MFA means multi-factor. It doesnt matter what they are as long as they are in different categories (something you know, something you have, something you are, etc: password, passkey, auth token, auth app, physical location, the network you are connected to). Two or more of these and you are set (though, location might be a weak factor).

I think its not kind to insinuate that i was telling them they were misidentifying themselves when there is a QUESTION MARK in my post.

We mostly use it like a regular coffee machine though, with the cups you can fill yourself. No DRM used here.

It may also be my region. Its always been this way for me for at least the last 15 years or so.
Now, those squarepay terminals that suggest 30% tips or similar can eat rocks.
If you would like to contribute, please consider making a fork of the repo and updating the language strings for your native language. Take care not to change the actual variable names (i.e. leave the word "reddit" and "subreddit" in the variable tags, but change the actual string values). The languages are available in this folder here, in the various `values-...` folders: https://github.com/bqv/slide/tree/lemmy/app/src/main/res If you'd like to see my commit as an example of what I did to base yours off of, you can see it here: https://github.com/bqv/slide/pull/2/commits/f346de0ef40b3fb87a9d420d969f2f16edc874a5
