Need to let loose a primal scream without collecting footnotes first? Have a sneer percolating in your system but not enough time/energy to make a whole post about it? Go forth and be mid: Welcome to the Stubsack, your first port of call for learning fresh Awful youāll near-instantly regret.
Any awful.systems sub may be subsneered in this subthread, techtakes or no.
If your sneer seems higher quality than you thought, feel free to cutānāpaste it into its own post ā thereās no quota for posting and the bar really isnāt that high.
The post Xitter web has spawned soo many āesotericā right wing freaks, but thereās no appropriate sneer-space for them. Iām talking redscare-ish, reality challenged āculture criticsā who write about everything but understand nothing. Iām talking about reply-guys who make the same 6 tweets about the same 3 subjects. Theyāre inescapable at this point, yet I donāt see them mocked (as much as they should be)
Like, there was one dude a while back who insisted that women couldnāt be surgeons because they didnāt believe in the moon or in stars? I think each and every one of these guys is uniquely fucked up and if I canāt escape them, I would love to sneer at them.
(Semi-obligatory thanks to @dgerard for starting this.)
how do you even define āraw, intellectual horsepowerā and how does it differ from knowing how to formulate questions mother fucker
Pretty sure thereās gonna be a contract somewhere that defines raw intelligence as āthe amount of money you make for OpenAI.ā
āRaw, intellectual horsepowerā means fucking an intellectual horse without a condom.
Oh, wait, thatās rawdogging intellectual horsepower, my mistake.

chaser:
I never thought Iād say this butā¦ donāt slander category theory like that, compared to LLMs itās downright useful
oh my god
the bit about it that I find subtly glorious (in how remarkably fuckwitted it is) is the baseline idea of āintellectual horsepowerā
Iām not surprised that this is a view they (of the company thatās effectively going ājust 12 more DCs bro itāll be enough compute bro I promise bro just watchā) hold and consider in such a simple mechanism-rating scale
but it is funny as fuck
