        “research”

        https://www.linkedin.com/in/robertskmiles?originalSubdomain=uk

        He’s a YouTube researcher that’s been working on his PhD for 12 years and has no practical field experience based on his LinkedIn.

        A large part of his schtick is conjecture and opinion at best.

        I’m not saying that they’re aren’t reasons to take AI safety seriously, But this guy is more or less entertainment.

            To be fair, he is calling himself as a researcher, I was ready to take him at face value until I watched a few minutes of his remastered intro to security video.

            He provides a fair amount of reasonable industry standard knowledge, then goes kind of off the rails on some graphs, Make some fairly wild assumptions. Not the kind of thing you find with real researchers mostly. Science has fuel today number of wacko researchers over the years that are legitimately doing research poorly.

              I tend to not acknowledge such videos at all. If an actual research has been done, there has to be a better source than a video about it. Of course, someone linking a video doesn’t mean they’re wrong, but I won’t consider it a point in their favour either.

            He’s made a great number of predictions, or rather he stated a lot of things on YouTube. There wasn’t anything novel in first couple of videos I’ve watched that I think he came up with out of the blue. He’s just jumping on the same bandwagon everybody else is.

            Then he posts meaningless graphs like this.

            Maybe if I sat down and watched all of his stuff to current I’d have a different view but after a couple of videos that’s about all I can stomach of him.

You are not logged in. However you can subscribe from another Fediverse account, for example Lemmy or Mastodon. To do this, paste the following into the search field of your instance: !comicstrips@lemmy.world

Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.

Rules
  1. 😇 Be Nice!

    • Treat others with respect and dignity. Friendly banter is okay, as long as it is mutual; keyword: friendly.
  2. 🏘️ Community Standards

    • Comics should be a full story, from start to finish, in one post.
    • Posts should be safe and enjoyable by the majority of community members, both here on lemmy.world and other instances.
    • Any comic that would qualify as raunchy, lewd, or otherwise draw unwanted attention by nosy coworkers, spouses, or family members should be tagged as NSFW.
    • Moderators have final say on what and what does not qualify as appropriate. Use common sense, and if need be, err on the side of caution.
  3. 🧬 Keep it Real

    • Comics should be made and posted by real human beans, not by automated means like bots or AI. This is not the community for that sort of thing.
  4. 📽️ Credit Where Credit is Due

    • Comics should include the original attribution to the artist(s) involved, and be unmodified. Bonus points if you include a link back to their website. When in doubt, use a reverse image search to try to find the original version. Repeat offenders will have their posts removed, be temporarily banned from posting, or if all else fails, be permanently banned from posting.
    • Attributions include, but are not limited to, watermarks, links, or other text or imagery that artists add to their comics to use for identification purposes. If you find a comic without any such markings, it would be a good idea to see if you can find an original version. If one cannot be found, say so and ask the community for help!
  5. 📋 Post Formatting

    • Post an image, gallery, or link to a specific comic hosted on another site; e.g., the author’s website.
    • Meta posts about the community should be tagged with [Meta] either at the beginning or the end of the post title.
    • When linking to a comic hosted on another site, ensure the link is to the comic itself and not just to the website; e.g.,
      ✅ Correct: https://xkcd.com/386/
      ❌ Incorrect: https://xkcd.com/
  6. 📬 Post Frequency/SPAM

    • Each user (regardless of instance) may post up to five (5 🖐) comics a day. This can be any combination of personal comics you have written yourself, or other author’s comics. Any comics exceeding five (5 🖐) will be removed.
  7. 🏴‍☠️ Internationalization (i18n)

    • Non-English posts are welcome. Please tag the post title with the original language, and include an English translation in the body of the post; e.g.,
      Sí, por favor [Spanish/Español]
  8. 🍿 Moderation

    • We are human, just like most everybody else on Lemmy. If you feel a moderation decision was made in error, you are welcome to reach out to anybody on the moderation team for clarification. Keep in mind that moderation decisions may be final.
    • When reporting posts and/or comments, quote which rule is being broken, and why you feel it broke the rules.
Web Accessibility

Note: This is not a rule, but a helpful suggestion.

When posting images, you should strive to add alt-text for screen readers to use to describe the image you’re posting:

  • Markdown - Links / Images

Another helpful thing to do is to provide a transcription of the text in your images, as well as brief descriptions of what’s going on. (example)
