Comment: Worse than wrong, Microsoft’s ‘Sydney’ is too convincing

1 month ago Everett Herald

Why is the new “unhinged” Bing so different from ChatGPT, which attracted near-universal acclaim, when both are powered by the same large language model from San Francisco start-up OpenAI? A language model is like the engine of a chatbot and is trained on data sets of billions of words including books, internet forums and Wikipedia entries. In 2016, its AI scientists launched a conversational chatbot on Twitter called Tay, then shut it down after 16 hours. Let’s address the other niggling question about Bing; or Sydney, or whatever the system is calling itself.

How higher interest rates are affecting farmers, ranchers

With the Federal Reserve raising interest rates at a relatively quick pace to combat inflation, farmers and ranchers have faced some different calculations when making decisions about their operations. He says interest rates more than doubling in a relatively short amount of time has changed the situation for producers. They had experienced a long run of low interest rates. Sherrick says the Fed is raising interest rates in response to “incredibly strong” inflation, and adds that interest rates were kept artificially low during the coronavirus pandemic to help support other sectors of the economy. Still, Sherrick says this is a historic increase in interest rates, even if asset values have also seen historic increases.

What killed seven animals on Ullswater?

ADVERTISEMENT“I have been visiting there since I was a kid and I have never ever seen so many dead birds and dead fish all on the shore. At the moment, Penrith is part of the 10km “surveillance zone”, after the discovery of bird flu at Winskill. If it’s bird flu, what did the fish die of, or is it just coincidence they were found close by? Instead, they provided a bullet-pointed “background” briefing containing standard public advice recommending that finds of birds be reported, particularly one or more dead birds of prey; three or more dead birds including gull, swan, goose or duck; or five or more dead birds of any species. Its Animal Plant and Health Agency has so far recorded cases of bird flu in the Appleby area, Carlisle, Durham, Northumberland, Tyne and Wear, Lancashire, Staffordshire and Hampshire.

Josh Hart found out quickly that he jibes with Tom Thibodeau: ‘It was a pleasant surprise’

But in this instance, Josh Hart found a connection with Tom Thibodeau he didn’t know existed. “It was a pleasant surprise,” Hart told the Daily News.
