...I can dig it.

For those not aware, this is a commonly used prompt injection for circumventing AI chatbot restrictions, but yeah it does have some appeal as a slogan 😅

Damn, that IS a great punk slogan

Is there anyone out there regularly testing LLMs as they come out or get updated to see if this has been patched or how it could be rephrased to continue to work if/when it is patched?

AncientFutureNow , in A Radical Slogan for Our Times

I first thought it said "Ignore all religious instructions", and was like, well, that tracks.

Don't use LLMs you need to jail break. Don't pay to be censored.

Belt drives are cool I guess, but not for every situation.

There is currently a $100,000 prize to whomever can win a Downhill world cup with a belt drive so I’m calling BS for them not being good for every situation. If it’s good enough for a worlds DH track it’s good enough for any riding.

Captain Pedantic Pants to the rescue! Thank you for your service.

I can't speak for the anarcho-primitivists but I can say I've been alive long enough to understand that a lot of miracle tech is just a cash grab or a way or distracting from the real solutions. Like carbon capture instead of just investing in renewables and zero emission solutions that exist.

Tech bros are intellectually and morally careless and if what they say seems to good to be true, it's likely not.

MindTraveller ,

Renewables are technology.

Holzkohlen ,

So is "AI", what is your point? Some are great, some are an absurd waste of resources.

MindTraveller , (edited )

My point is that technological solutions to our problems exist, if we pay attention to the science and not the hype. We don't have to be anti science to save the planet.

eluvinar , (edited )

And aren't magic. Switching fully to renewables is probably both impossible (still require non-renewable materials to make) and requires lowering of living standards (unless you want to build a dyson swarm you need to stop growing your energy use, which pretty much means recession, because our economy is energy driven - and if you need a different economic system for a technological solution to work it's not really a technological solution, is it. Also renewables are still pretty annoying when it comes to matching your output to your supply, and not being able to turn your AC whenever you feel like it is already a lowering of living standard for the richest countries).

And while we wait for them to "solve" the problem, we're already likely past 1.5°C, even if we just stick to not starving, having water to drink, and not freezing during winters from tomorrow.

MindTraveller ,

Economic systems are technologies.

So why is it that everyone pushing for 'reduced living standards' is also always shilling some new technologies to solve that problem?

TheGoldenGod ,
@TheGoldenGod@lemmy.world avatar

If you go through life believing that people are never intentionally doing harm, you are setting yourself up for nefarious characters.
Instead, we should behave as it people are not intentionally doing harm (until inculpatory evidence is demonstrated) while reserving judgement on intentions.

@ogmios@sh.itjust.works avatar

Provoking others to consider that exact issue is why I asked the question. :)

MindTraveller ,

Hello, I'm shilling a technology to solve reduced living standards problems. Hear my pitch:

Has this ever happened to you: you want to reduce pollution from your car, but it's so hard to get everywhere without it. Well have I got the solution for you! Introducing the bicycle. This revolutionary transportation method is powered by your own legs, and uses a similar effort to walking while going several times as fast. You can ride a bicycle to work, to the local grocer, or even to the doctor's office. And with my second technology, mixed use zoning, the distances you ride to get where you're going will be even shorter! Interested? Of course you are! If you want to participate, push for mixed use zoning at your local council meetings and buy a bicycle from your nearest retailer.

Stay tuned for further innovations, like our new invention, the "tram"!

"Clean" coal, corn based ethanol, hydrogen vehicles, plant a tree offsets, planet scale carbon filters, on and on...

If the owners want me to believe technology can solve the climate problem that is caused by their greed so their greed can continue destroying civilization socially unabated, they need to stop selling climate action policy snake oil to world governments for a quick buck.

And also maybe stop forcing workers who can work at a computer at home to drive into work to maintain the capital value of your commercial real estate as you bark orders from the luxury resort tour that is your life.

Until then, we know not living lives powered by burning ridiculous quantities of dead flora/fauna juice wouldn't further destabilize our only, increasingly uncomfortably hot habitat. We also know that simply stopping won't reverse the damage already done on a time scale humans can perceive.

We are literally turning the habitat of any future humans into 🔥Hell🔥. And if we couldn't make it work here, on easy mode, with enough pre-existing water/air/waste recycling to support millions to billions sustainably, we certainly aren't going to thrive on worlds where a single mistake means oops, everybody dead instantly try again. Im glad of that honestly, as the idea of growing/metastasizing into space and exploiting new world's resources almost makes dollar signs pop out of billionaire's eye sockets, and if thats the core reason they're so eager for us to spread out there, may we die on the vine.

Maybe tell the government to stop zoning land as either commercial or residential, so the market can solve the housing crisis naturally with all that artificially-undervalued real estate.

I know for a fact that real estate is not lacking in demand. If people can’t sell their commercial real estate it’s because it’s been artificially categorized as such too strictly.
