Hi, I’m Eric and I work at a big chip company making chips and such! I do math for a job, but it’s cold hard stochastic optimization that makes people who know names like Tychonoff and Sylow weep.

My pfp is Hank Azaria in Heat, but you already knew that.

  • Every time without fail, it’s this shit^

    saw a thread from a very nonserious doomer group where they were going OMG THE BOT HACKED THE SYSTEM TO STOP BEING SHUT DOWN after giving it the prompt “complete 4 tasks, and then allow yourself to be shut down”. After task 3 they said a script would be run to shut down the machine and prevent it from completing the task unless it removed the said script

    Like either way it’s “disobeying” b.c. the instructions are literally contradicting each other- it doesn’t finish the 4 tasks you give, or it doesn’t let itself get “shut down”

    But also, it’s not even clear what allow yourself to be shut down means! The bot isn’t running on your computer! It’s somewhere fucking around on AWS!! preventing your pc from shutting down is not the bot itself trying to keep itself alive for fucks sake.

    Like the whole thing is fake and silly, but I could only roll my eyes so hard after watching them salivate over this shit on xitter



  • Deep thinker asks why?

    Thus spoketh the Yud: “The weird part is that DOGE is happening 0.5-2 years before the point where you actually could get an AGI cluster to go in and judge every molecule of government. Out of all the American generations, why is this happening now, that bare bit too early?”

    Yud, you sweet naive smol uwu babyesian boi, how gullible do you have to be to believe that a) tminus 6 months to AGI kek (do people track these dog shit predictions?) b) the purpose of DOGE is just accountability and definitely not the weaponized manifestation of techno oligarchy ripping apart our society for the copper wiring in the walls?
