That’s a very poetic way of looking at the way our data on these forms will be processed and ingested by LLMs in the coming years. I have been considering cloning my own voice and experimenting with the multitude of use cases that can provide.
All the developed literature as well as entirely documented human lives… Readily available with numerical recipes for their processing and integration into whatever societal infrastructure comes out of where we’re headed right now.
It was strange for me to come to terms with that. The crowd that Lemmy fosters is such a different subset than the general population. Sometimes I wonder what growing up online will do to people down the line from us.
It’s heart rending to hear what you’re going through, OP. I’m sure your family will sincerely cherish what you write. I also agree with others who have mentioned to add stipulations on how you want your thoughts to be used. Not to speak for you, but I wouldn’t want my likelihood desecrated in some manufactured effigy long after my death.
Not to say I didn’t spend a fair chunk of my own life online, but with the advancements in materials and manufacturing methods, I wonder what storage devices and technologies will become sarcophagi for our archived lives…
Wishing you wonders in your last moments, OP.
I’m not too familiar with the ITS, but hearing the monumental work done during the 1960s and 70s surrounding operating systems is something I can’t fathom.
He really stands for so much in the philosophy surrounding FOSS… Ironically, if it weren’t for the Ted Talk on YouTube that I watched from him a year ago, I wouldn’t have known about his existence.
Hope he recovers, it’s different to see him without his signature long hair and beard :(
Well given that I remember my professors barely knew how to code when they were the ones teaching us, I’m never surprised computational papers are like this…
That’s what you get when people never learn alternatives to MacOS or Windows
Right? I wish more people would consider the product life cycle analysis of what they want to purchase. Virtue signaling doesn’t help, and nor does more scrap ending up in a landfill at the end of the cradle to grave trip.
I’d love an E bike! It would be great to take the train into the city for me and use it to get around. I haven’t been able to afford insurance and still don’t have a driver’s license. It’d save me a killing and allow me to actually save my money than have it guzzled up by gas, car maintenance, and overall way less hassle for me. I’d rather not have to worry about features eventually getting pay walled by the shitfotainment system…
Amazing dumpster find! How long did it take you to fix?
