Back In My Day, you had to mod a PlayStation if you wanted to DIY a missile guidance system /s

AI is just a next word predictor. It cannot understand the development of guided weapons as it's not conscious.

One problem with well performed sarcasm is a noteworthy tendency to darken the text colour on hn

Indeed. My humble opinion is that sarcasm doesn't belong on discussion boards, even with the silly /s marker. Eventually it poisons everything it touches.

I'm only in control of what I do, not what others do. Thus, I only judge myself by my own standards, not of others.

Non sequitur. Can't live in a society and be free of it.

I'm just a next word predictor too

Then society should have the right to end your life as soon as you're no longer useful as you've just reduced yourself to an algorithm, what value do you serve if you're just a next word predictor ?

Reducing your self worth like that is a very stupid thing to do.

How does describing something reduce its worth?

This argument from 2024? We are all next word predictors, what matters is what the next word is.

I wouldn’t be surprised if Iran’s strategy to shut down the Strait of Hormuz was ideated by AI.

hallgrim•about 8 hours ago

As far as I heard they had that strategy as a possibility for decades, US experts had warned the current and prior administrations about it’s possible ramifications, warning against attacking Iran for exactly this reason.

The previous German minister of economy, Robert Habeck, had warned of such a situation a few years ago, too.

And the democrats expect us to believe Iran is not a puppet government of the United States. I mean Iran, Houthis, even Russia is using Claude… after pentagon pretended to ban Anthropic from the military…

willy_k•about 10 hours ago

Wait I’m sorry, I’m all for suspecting US involvement in foreign countries because its probably happening, but what are you saying exactly? “The democrats” have had marginal if any power for two years. Any fuckling going on involves POTUS.

Also, reality is not a work of fiction. Look for concrete reasons in things, not themes and allusions. Anthropic is used because they have a good product, it’s easy.
