  • Remember they’re doing this so that they can detect it themselves. I’m far from an expert, so maybe I’m misunderstanding something but the way I understand it, they’d be defeating their own tool if they go down this route. If they cycle the logit biases, how can they themselves detect if a random piece of text is generated? Which set of biases do they test?

    At the end of the day, you’re talking about raw text. There’s no option to sign it, or embed metadata or anything like that. You can’t even guarantee that you’re seeing the complete sample, or even a single sample! If there is a fingerprint, it’ll be detectable to anyone, and it’ll be easily removed.




  • It’s a bit more nuanced than that. Essentially AP fact checked it and instead of saying “Hillbilly Eulegy doesn’t contain a story about Vance getting freaky with a couch” they used the headline “Vance never had relations with a couch”

    That’s not something anyone could actually know for sure though, and they were called on it… and had to retract it…

    Which of course lead to people wondering why it was retracted, and it kinda snowballed. I don’t think anybody seriously believes it, but as the story goes, there’s no evidence he DIDN’T fuck a couch lol


  • We had the same idea. Even ended up living on an old 37’ for about a year… then we popped the stern tube during an engine test (40 years worth of copper corrosion)…

    Well you can imagine what that was like. It was only through sheer dumb luck that we saved literally everything we own. That coupled with some expensive engine repair and we ended up spending the cost of the boat again in repairs.

    There’s more to the story but ye, we live in a house now.

    This is not to discourage any one btw, just pick your boat better than we did. Also, you need to be really into DIY or really rich, because God damn, boat stuff is expensive!
