Which goes to show that if you are a public figure whether in politics, entertainment, or otherwise, owning your own server for social media instead of relying on Zuck and Musk should be a critical concern at this point.

There is no reason for the Harris campaign to not dip their toe into federated social media at this point given Musk’s antagonism towards them.

You probably never heard of it, but I shitpost on this obscure technology forum called Lemonworld or something on things I would never admit to in public.

It’s great, I’m something of a celebrity over there.

The Joker.

I really don’t get the obsession with overusing the Joker when most of Barman’s other rogue gallery members are much more interesting. The worst of it is during “The Batman Who Laughs”, because now you have both the regular Joker and “what if Batman became Joker” running around. And then, as if it couldn’t get any more ridiculous,

And I think most people will agree by now that Harley Quinn is a lot better of a character after she’s done being Joker’s sidekick.

🥰

I just play her on TV.

Yay

Maybe she’s busy working and can’t spend as much time messing with tech friends on social media or something.

… Are they ripping off the “Suicide Squad” trailer?

That’s not exactly a promising sign for the game.

(Also, identity theft is not a joke, Bioware!)

I mean, there probably are celebs out there, but under pseudonyms.

Hypothetically speaking, if a famous person did run around Lemmy under their real name and openly promoting their work here, who is going to believe them? 🙂

I hope Bioware go back to their roots and take more inspiration from DA:O and BG3 instead of DA:I and go back to more tactical and less action-y gameplay. The overwhelming success of Baldur’s Gate 3 proves there is a market for traditional CRPG, especially coming from the the studio that made the first two Baldur’s Gate.

Also, less Ubisoft/Skyrim-esquelarge empty open world and more carefully crafted maps with emphasis on choices. DA:I wasn’t a bad game, but if Bioware releases another DA:I in 2024 it will definitely be compared unfavorably to Bg3.

Way ahead of you on that.

There is always risks in going to a new social platform, but also the reward for being an early adopter is also great if the platform gets big, and I’d say the Barbie promotion here last year overall went pretty well.

On the other hand, all these AI errors by Google have made for some great memes recently.

Windows 11. Because Windows 7 ate Windows 9.

Yay

That’s esteemed Academy Award nominated character actress (and producer) Margot Robbie to you!

I knew it! So that’s what you’ve really been up to on Lemmy, @[email protected]

Or should I say, Academy Award nominated actor Woody Harrelson?

Reddit, and by extension, Lemmy, offers the ideal format for LLM datasets: human generated conversational comments, which, unlike traditional forums, are organized in a branched nested format and scored with votes in the same way that LLM reward models are built.

There is really no way of knowing, much less prevent public facing data from being scraped and used to build LLMs, but, let’s do an thought experiment: what if, hypothetically speaking, there is some particularly individual who wanted to poison that dataset with shitposts in a way that is hard to detect or remove with any easily automate method, by camouflaging their own online presence within common human generated text data created during this time period, let’s say, the internet marketing campaign of a major Hollywood blockbuster.

Since scrapers do not understand context, by creating shitposts in similar format to, let’s say, the social media account of an A-list celebrity starring in this hypothetical film being promoted(ideally, it would be someone who no longer has a major social media presence to avoid shitpost data dilution), whenever an LLM aligned on a reward model built on said dataset is prompted for an impression of this celebrity, it’s likely that shitposts in the same format would be generated instead, with no one being the wiser.

That would be pretty funny.

Again, this is entirely hypothetical, of course.

Who knew someone who plays characters on screen for a living would be so good at playing a character?

Hey, I have more than one comedy bit I do here other than something something Hell in a Cell, OK?

Speaking of which, Hell in a Cell isn’t even that exciting anymore after the WWE made it an annual event and painted the cages red, and why did Seth Rollins get disqualified after he attacked “The Fiend” Bray Wyatt with a sledgehammer 2019 even though Hell in a Cell matches have always been no disqualification?

It’s like their script writers don’t even care about their own rules.

That’s, uh, “Jaime Pressly”, who is totally not esteemed Academy Award nominated character actress Margot Robbie doing an American Southern accent to get more work in the US.
