You completely missed the point. The point is people have been lead to believe LLM can do jobs that humans do because the output of LLMs sounds like the jobs people do, when in reality, speech is just one small part of these jobs. It turns, reasoning is a big part of these jobs, and LLMs simply don’t reason.
The average human considers the Pythagorean theorem “sophistication”. Let’s not take our education for granted.
The comparison between the two is apt since Tynan has mentioned Dwarf Fortress being a major influence on Rimworld. I’m not sure about the comparisons with Sims and SimCity, since those two games have vastly different scales (hundreds versus millions of people).
Rimworld does have drafting and there is the option to micromanage, but this isn’t all that practical in a colony of 50. At that size, the two require similar management levels.
I feel the same about enjoying Rimworld while DF not so much, but for very different reasons. See, DF is a deep simulation first and foremost. It’s all in on procedural. Rimworld, meanwhile, heavily incorporates simulation and procedural, but does not rely on it exclusively. Rimworld blends in tactical combat, lore, and partially scripted story events and quests.
Beyond that, I would say that Rimworld is more graphically polished and has more accessible controls.
The benefit of AI is overblown for a majority of product tiers. Remember how everything was supposed to be block chain? And metaverse? And web 3.0? And dot.com? This is just the next tech trend for dumb VCs to throw money at.
This won’t help your situation, but as a general rule, I don’t engage in debate on Lemmy or anywhere else. In part to avoid these kinds of problems but also because I find that responders are rarely interested in considering my opinion in good faith, and are rather usually looking for a place to dump their own opinion. I admit to doing this myself. I think it’s an inherent part of not-face-to-face communication. Similar phenomenon as with how the faceless ness of cars so easily induces road rage.
Just wait till the advertisers find out the eyeballs they are paying for are also just AI sock puppets. Enshitification strikes again.
Can’t tell if you are joking. I know a lot of junior developers who think this is a legitimate solution.
If you could buy one, would you?
I get it, we don’t need billionaires in our society. That aside, what makes you think this is intentional exploitation?
I dunno. “Man of science” has a really nice ring to it. (“Woman of Science” too.)
A financial, legal, or even just a tit-for-tat incentive is realistically all it would take. You assume that some utopia that has shed those ideas is the only one capable of such technology.
In reality, it’s greed and self-preservation that is running this show, and this is all that is needed to produce awe-inspiring feats.
Asking your employer for more compensation because you are exerting more effort due to inexperience isn’t so different than a AAA studio charging high fees for a crappy product because of corporate bullshit and inefficiency.
In fact, these two things tend to be two sides of the same coin.
I do OOP because it naturally encourages me to do this sort of thing: abstract complicated logic into inspectable, reusable, testable properties of an object.
I’m pretty sure Windows is a key part of their “cloud stuff” strategy. You are right that consumers are not the direct focus of Windows, since they are not the direct paying audience, and that shows in the direction Windows is going, but getting consumers to use Windows is a big part of creating corporate buy in for Microsoft cloud services. Corporate environments will shun Microsoft cloud services if employees can’t use Windows, or Windows features run afoul of corporate policies (like blanket LLM bans).
I also have the same question. So I upvoted you. Also, where does this fall on the chart?
So what you are saying is maybe the free market is not that efficient.
What would be a more efficient economic model (with objective of getting quality goods in people’s hands)? A cooperative?
Makes me wonder if other economic models collapse under their own weight too.
So the solution to consumers making informed choices is to have the consumer buy everything and test everything personally?
No.
Been here since the redipocalypse, browse All daily… Haven’t seen a single post about sports.
The second part of this comment doesn’t make a lot of sense.
My understanding is that the tax system allows for the declaration of depreciation in assets as a business expense. This is fine for assets with transparent market valuations.
The part where this system could be abused is in willfully withholding the release of a movie, overvaluing the expected revenue, and then subsequently declaring the lack of revenue as a depreciation in assets which is then declared as a business expense to reduce the tax burden.
A clearer example of this, with very obvious fraud, might be:
So obviously this example was fraudulous. It’s possible that the expected revenue on the cases involving movies was estimated transparently and was fair, because of market forces.
Maybe something more scummy was at play?
Who knows.
It’s essentially a map of big countries (population, territory, population density…)
This map would be way more interesting if it was normalized per capita or some other meaningful denominator. Only then does it make sense to point fingers.
