Jebus, fantastic.

Oh no, what rumblings would that be? Prusa has always been a ray of hope…

was having that exact conversation with a buddy yesterday, he figures we’ll see the first attempt this year.

I personally don’t think you can have a romantic relationship with a thing you created. romance is about discovering, learning and growing with someone else. When that else is a manifestation of yourself, it’s ultimately masturbation.

I love it when a brief comment just strips all the arguments to their core. This is exactly it. I’d say he was looking for a companion, but folks don’t create companions to be equals, they create them to control them.

This is just a really fancy, incredibly power hungry sextoy, isn’t it?

Yes, this I feel is the crux of the situation. The industry is trying to hammer a probabilistic solution into deterministic holes. I mean, it’s no wonder people keep fucking up their shit with openclaw. If have an agent, it should do exactly what I tell it.

So, back to where they came from then.

I didn’t mention parties, shit for brains.

Yet somehow it was the “tea party” republicans that ultimately delivered all this bullshit.

But think of the internet points. You are hoarding all of them, Abundance114 needs some too!

Aside… I totally agree with your original post. 40 years I’ve been bitching about my awful family. For 39, the rest of them have been telling me what an asshole I am for speaking my mind. For some reason, they have been agreeing with me more and more over the past year.

I don’t hate AI, I kinda like it and I do think it will redefine computing in the future.

I hate the people behind it, and who are pushing it. I hate the hype, I hate the pressure, I hate how dangerous it is without guardrails, I hate the stupidity of people using it, and getting addicted to it because it’s an ego stoking machine. I hate the entire industry around it.

But I really enjoy using and learning about it in my own sandbox. I use a number of local LLMs successfully for research and learning. But I don’t trust them, at all, I think of them as an egotistical knowitall who has no problem lying to make themselves feel smart. There’s tons of useful info to get from them, but you have to understand what you are dealing with.

I’m very curious what the future looks like. It really depends on us though. Critical thinking and being observant are the new critical skills for success in the he future. Unfortunately neither are particularly common these days so I have a feeling I will continue to hate for a while now…

Boys can also develop negative images of themselves, they are actively preyed upon as well. There are different sets of challenges for the genders, but they are there for both.

I don’t have girls so it’s hard to say. But I do work to make sure they understand that people that come for them, are only saying something about themselves. We work hard to make sure they know the difference between online abusive drama and reality and help them choose spaces that are positive.

Same as always, better parenting.

My three boys don’t have filters on the internet, instead of blocking them from the world, I raised them in it.

Yeah, it’s a huge disaster waiting to happen. I am playing with it because it is some interesting learning but completely sandboxed, using a local LLM, and I have given it no personal information. It’s really cool to see it work, to watch the communication between it and the LLM.

But seriously, I’d never, ever attempt playing with it without my decades of infrastructure experience. I’d never give it public access nor any personal information. Still, I am encouraged that it’s functional enough in an entirely self hosted stack to be able to learn and play. I still think the future of AI should be local and openclaw, despite its fundamental issues is the first time I’ve played with AI and could conceive a future use case.

In the end, I think the bubble will pop, I just hope the other side has something of value to come out of all this insanity. As brick stupid as openclaw is, it’s at least enough of a proof of concept to keep a sliver of hope that there may be.

I hate you for this.

(I don’t hate you, I just hate how right you are good person).

I have. I’m working on consolidating and figuring out a plan. I’m admittedly less astute financially than I should. Didn’t really expect all this shit to happen.

I’m late 40’s right now, always assumed social security was a pipe dream so I’ve diligently put away money in 401ks and IRA’s. I no longer believe they will be worth anything much longer.

Was a nice country, for a little while, at least that’s what my parent’s generation tells me, I’ve never been here for it.

Good advice, thanks.

It’s a lot of fun, but not an internet replacement yet. They did just come out with a new dual band that has enough bandwidth to do something useful. Can’t wait to give it a try.

Still very worth setting up. I have a node that runs in my attic, and a few that I can take around with me. I can get good single most anywhere in my neighborhood, and I have enough nodes nearby that I can pretty much communicate with people all over the metro area (I’m in the twin cities).
