You should try being assertive, you can look it up, but essentially it's a healthier communication style that emphasizes on facts and feeling. For example, you shouldn't say you don't care for me, instead say you cancelling our date made me feel dismissed.

You can look it up online, essentially it's a middle ground between being passive or aggressive.

Keep in mind that every feeling is valid, and trying to pursuade someone otherwise is the art of gaslighting. Emotional manipulation and gaslighting, are common in a Narcissist's playbook, if you feel you emotions are invalidated don't angry, instead leave it's not worth your time.

While the consumption for AI train can be large, there are arguments to be made for its net effect in the long run.

The article's last section gives a few examples that are interesting to me from an environmental perspective. Using smaller problem-specific models can have a large effect in reducing AI emissions, since their relation to model size is not linear. AI assistance can indeed increase worker productivity, which does not necessarily decrease emissions but we have to keep in mind that our bodies are pretty inefficient meat bags. Last but not least, AI literacy can lead to better legislation and regulation.

Probably a lot less, keep in mind that whenever it answers a question the whole model is traversed multiple times, going through multiple GBs is not possible in the matter of seconds the model answers.

why is signal not an option?

If you use a recent release of Fedora (last 2-3 years). Try disabling WiFi and/or Bluetooth before suspending. There is an issue with some hardware, especially adapters. It doesn't happen everytime, and it's hard to accurately reproduce. Also, the symptoms can vary from black screen to sudo being stuck.

So they have around 9,500 employees, for a global corporation it doesn't seem that many.

You have to account for various positions like legal staff to handle contracts with artists and enterprise customers, across literally every jurisdiction in the world. Then, other supporting roles like marketing, sales, cleaning and management.

What really surprised me was that among those 9,500 employees around 6,000 of them are software engineers. 500 would have been my first guess accounting for the infrastructure size, the number of platforms they support, the complexity of the features, and the need for 24/7 support around the globe.

As a personal anecdote, the ratio of software engineers in the companies I have worked for was around 20%, ie 1 engineer for every 5 staff.

I would really like to see an organisation tree, how many teams are there and what are they working on???

I am a software engineer, I have literally forked tensorflow and modified the executor, and I have created neural networks for predicting aquaculture KPIs that have been deployed with great success.

I stopped looking for a year, and now I feel AI illiterate. (insert "too afraid to ask" meme)

My experience suggests it's too early to start teaching people. Let the technology do its loop and settle down.

I had to reread the whole thing 5 times to make sure there water isn't one of the labels.

[-] souperk@reddthat.com 5 points 1 year ago

My fucking drunk self, highly agrees with you.

I really need someone to tell me how to feel about this.

An army of 15 year olds with a mission to save lives is something pulled out of a novel, not real life.

Edit: After a few replies I feel even more confused and afraid.
