It’s the university for criminals. How do you expect anyone to pull off a an elaborate bank heist, or build a drug cartel. You need experienced professional criminals for that.

Before long, demonstrations will probably be outlawed, and anyone trying to voice their concerns will be treated like a terrorist. Once that happens, there’s no going back.

That’s a good point. A human author would be influenced by life in general, not just the books.

I’ve been thinking about that as well. If an author has bought 500 books, and read them, it’s obviously going to influence the books they write in the future. There’s nothing illegal about that. Then again, they did pay for the books, so I guess that makes it fine.

What if they got the books from a library? Well, they probably also paid taxes, so that makes it ok.

What if they pirated those books? In that case, the pirating part is problematic, but I don’t think anyone will sue the author for copying the style of LOTR in their own works.

How many pages has a human author read and written before they can produce something worth publishing? I’m pretty sure that’s not even a million pages. Why does an AI require a gazillion pages to learn, but the quality is still unimpressive? I think there’s something fundamentally wrong with the way we teach these models.

The USB law.

When you try to plug in a USB-A connector, there’s a 70% probability it won’t go in. Mathematically it should be 50%, but I don’t believe that.

You switch it around, and there’s a 30% probability it won’t go in. This is not something they taught at school.

You switch it around the third time, and there’s a 5% chance it still won’t go in. Your mind begins to melt down, you switch and insert repeatedly until it finally works sooner or later.
