My assumption wasn’t that they learned on the fly, it was that they were trained on previous interactions. Eg the team developing them would use data collected from interaction with model v3 to train model v4. Seems like juicy relevant data they wouldn’t even have to go steal and sort

Can you help correct this for me? Don’t you feed them valuable training data and exposure to real world problems in the process of using them?

15 years ago you were naive enough to believe their bullshit and public perception was still important to their success. “Embrace, extend, extinguish” isn’t healthy participation in open source. Think M$ was the one who actually stated things that way, but google was absolutely playing the same game

Jesus was a dirty homeless activist with no love for the institutions of his time. Would genuinely fit in better in under any overpass than in any church. Cool dude.

Have u seen my hinge???

I disagree with the applicability of that metaphor to infrastructure entirely. It’s not a community you’re participating in, it’s a tool. Abandoning that tool to the worst of us to prove you’re not one of them is self defeating.

I remember people making this same argument but for social media, doesn’t make any more sense now than it did then. Corpos are the ones in control of that tool, using it helps them so much more than it does you. If you don’t want to support the ideology that developed it, you really need to just not engage.

Seconding gnucash, there’s modern stuff that’s slicker but nothing that works better imo
