This is starting to tick me off. Now you've got me all wound up!

Cooking from scratch is excellent... But there's also an extreme for how far you consider "cooking from scratch" to actually be "from scratch"... For Example: https://www.instagram.com/reel/C76cACZB0oq/

Do you milk the cows yourself? Churn the butter? Etc.

Doesn't look so alone to me, there are some friendly fish right there!

For me, the article makes it seem like there's some new announcement that the FBI has put out about a newly discovered vulnerability. Turns out, the announcement is about vulnerabilities we've known about for a long time.

Kitboga has used AI (STT, LLMs, and TTS) to waste the time of Scammers.

There are AI tools being used to develop new cures which will benefit everyone.

There are AI tools being used to help discover new planets.

I use DLSS for gaming.

I run a lot of my own local AI models for various reasons. Whisper - for Audio Transcriptions/Translations.

Different Diffusion Models (SD or Flux) - for some quick visuals to recap a D&D session.

Tesseract OCR - to scan an image and extract any text that it can find (makes it easy to pull out text from any image and make it searchable).

Local LLMs (Llama, Mixtral) for brainstorming ideas, reformatting text, etc. It's great for getting started with certain subjects/topics, as long as I verify everything that it says.

For fun I'll probably setup GLaDOS like what was done here: https://www.reddit.com/r/LocalLLaMA/comments/1csnexs/local_glados_now_running_on_windows_11_rtx_2060/

Orison in Star Citizen. One of the coolest cloud cities in gaming with some of the most amazing sunsets.

Edit: It's hard to pick a picture that captures the experience (so I picked a few). A video is better, but actually being there in-game is a whole other level. Everything from the bars, food court, living spaces, shipyard and space port add to the experience.

I understand, that definitely makes sense then.

This isn't an article about mistranslations.

This is an article focusing on how asking about US election questions in Spanish will give you answers that are for the wrong country, or just wrong in most cases when compared to asking the same question in English.

One example is that, if someone in Puerto Rico were to ask ChatGPT 4/Claude/Gemini/Llama/Mixtral a US Election question, it would respond with information for Venezuela/Mexico/Spain instead.

If a post is deleted for any reason it nukes everything, even the comments.

I can't go back and view any comments that I was replying to or that I had saved, I can only see my own comment.

Same, I'd say it's way better than most other transcription tools I've used, but it does need to be monitored to catch when it starts going off the rails.

Whisper isn't a large language model.

It's a speech to text (STT) model.

Rather than making it illegal to use, people need to use these tools responsibly. If any of these companies are using almost any kind of AI/machine learning they need to include a human in the loop that can verify that it's working correctly. That way if it starts hallucinating things that were never said, it can be caught and corrected.

I've found that Whisper generally does a better job at translating/transcribing audio than other open source tools out there, so it's not garbage.. But it absolutely is a hazard if you're trying to rely solely on it for official documents (or legal issues).

As far as promotion goes... It's open source software, it's not being sold.

A few more details here, but definitely read through the known issues if you decide to hop in:

We are intending to leave this build up for up to 24 hours but could come down sooner if blocking issues occur.
This test will have each Stanton shard split into many authoritative zones. We are planning to start the test out at 1 DGS with 100 players as a baseline and increase this to add more DGS with 500 and then as high as 1000 players

Edit: An easy way to download this is just to rename your "LIVE" folder to "TECH-PREVIEW".

I'm hoping they implement a way to assign crimestat to players that "flick" cargo at other players or ships in armistace zones.

MOTD

🕹️(Tuesday) Goals for the week: We are currently working on further stability hotfixes for 3.24 LIVE with plans to roll out server hotfixes throughout the week. We are also currently putting together a new build for a Tech-Preview RMQ/Meshing test later this week!

Additional context:

I'll give more details once we have it all locked in for the test but goal is to be all backers tech-preview

CitizenCon 2954 Digital Goodies Pack Now Available - Roberts Space Industries | Follow the development of Star Citizen and Squadron 42

The goodie pack for last year's Citizencon was heavily Pyro themed.

The rewards this time around are tied to Citizen Day which (to me) is feeling a lot more Squadron 42 focused.

https://robertsspaceindustries.com/galactapedia/article/bmGYMYp9Xy-citizen-day

If we're lucky we might even get a potential release date, but I could easily see them specifying this as a "goal" rather than a hard release date...

Edit: A fellow org mate pointed out that the P8-AR was originally a SQ-42 campaign exclusive rifle.
