Google AI chatbot responds with a threatening message: "Human … Please die."
  • This probably isn't a hallucination in the classic sense.

    This is probably a near copy of a forum post where a user was channeling fight club and trying to be funny. The same as the putting glue on pizza thing.

    And guardrails don't work very well. They're good at detection tone but much worse at detection content. So an appropriately guardrailed LLM will never call someone a "fucking ######" but it'll keep telling everyone that segalis have an IQ of 40 until there's such a PR backlash that an updated is needed.

  • NHS-branded baby formula could prevent parents paying too much, watchdog says
  • Just calm down and wait. You don't actually need massive amounts of milk from the start, and it takes time for everything to kick in.

    If there's still not enough milk, you can mix bottle and breast.

    Some people genuinely need to bottle feed, but that's not what was going on in our case.

  • NHS-branded baby formula could prevent parents paying too much, watchdog says
  • The important thing about NHS care is that half the midwives are completely insane, and they all contradict each other. They have basically no medical training and are just meant to get someone qualified if anything goes wrong. Instead they go mad with power and use it to bully first time parents into doing what they say.

    Our midwife was insistent that if there wasn't enough breast milk immediately after birth we had to switch to bottlefed. I don't think you can figure out the official NHS approach based on anything a midwife says.

  • Verizon, AT&T tell courts: FCC can’t punish us for selling user location data
  • That's probably more a stalling tactic then anything else.

    The longer they can run down the clock, the greater the chance is that Trump dismantles the FCC before the case is over, and even if he doesn't do that it lets them keep selling data for longer.

  • 'UK first' battery powered train slashes fuel costs by up to 50 per cent
  • Yeah and all this is important because it means things won't get automatically better as the nationalization goes ahead.

    Maybe the promised planning reforms will help, but anything where you have to modify a bridge or a tunnel in a city to make room for electrification is always going to be a pain.

  • While Musk publicly scorns government intervention and bleats about free-market capitalism, his companies have received more than $15.4 billion in government contracts over the past decade. 🤡
  • This is missing at least 9bn of Tesla subsidies. https://www.reuters.com/world/us/musk-embraces-trump-scorns-subsidies-tesla-still-lobbies-us-benefits-2024-08-12/

    Tesla's first major manufacturing facility, in Fremont, California, was developed with the help of a $465 million loan from the U.S. Department of Energy, repaid three years later. More recently, Tesla has reaped almost $9 billion since 2018 by selling what are known as "regulatory credits" securities filings show.

    The boring company also depend on us government contracts.

  • A decline in arable land
  • The infographic says crop farming. Ireland is green because of the grass which goes with animal farming.

    The chart is lazy nonsense that ignores most of the farming in Ireland.

  • Just learned how a certain autism test works, im irked.
  • I mean it's important to distinguish between actual scientific tests and random managerial bullshit and wasting a day on "training".

    The scientific test, assuming this is real science, and not more random crap found on a website, will just be based on observation. People with autism tend describe individual pictures while neurotypicals tend to impose a narrative on the whole collection.

    There's no good or bad here, they're different ways of describing the world. You don't win if you're more autistic or neurotypical or whatever.

    On the other hand training days like you're describing are always a complete waste of time. The aim is to turn up, do the minimal amount of engagement to make it look like you're a team player, and then just try to fit in with everyone else. There's is no point in wasting time thinking about course materials. The guy who wrote them was just bullshiting.

    If it makes you feel better, if it was actually sunrise on summer solstice at Stonehenge, there would have probably been people in the pictures. I've heard it gets busy.
