I can fix her
mfw debugging my gf for the whole weekend and she still wants to talk about things other than programming language design
You’re also a programming language design nerd? Like, “Compare the features of language A to those of language B”, or nerding out about the underlying mechanics of things like generic types, virtual method dispatch, and no-stop garbage collection? I thought I was the only one. Well not the only one but it doesn’t seem that popular of a thing to nerd out over.
I’m too new to know too much about the underlying mechanics, but yes I find it very interesting, including the syntax, which I know most nerds dismiss as superficial.
I’m definitely biased because I love the language, but I think Go is a good place to start. The authors talk about the language design more than I’ve seen for other languages. The Go blog occasionally has posts like that but Russ Cox’s blog is the place to go for the gnarly details. Another good place is the proposals repo, e.g. the generics proposal. I also browse issues on GitHub and look for ones with interesting discussions.
including the syntax, which I know most nerds dismiss as superficial.
Syntax is mostly irrelevant as far as what is possible with a language, but it is a critical aspect of how easy/hard it is to use a language, and most critically how easy/hard it is to read code written in that language. IMO the only thing that’s more important than readability is whether the code works as intended.
Lawyer up, hit the gym, :wq!

Your AI Girlfriend is a Data-Harvesting Horror Show
People use 4 VPNs and more sec-ops than the NSA, but get hacked because their AI girlfriend is like:
Hiiu~~
It’s me AI-uuu-Chan!
I’m so sawwd, I don’t know weeeuh abwout u!
Wats ur mommies maiden name UwU, and the name of ur kawaiii first pet? UwUUU? * starts twerking * (◠‿◠✿)
My partner insists on syncing data to Facebook - even a locally running instance may introduce privacy breaches.
You can try imprisoning her with a wall of fire.
What kind of kinky valentine’s day do you have planned!
hot and bothered night of cleaning up python scripts and reflashing router firmware.
Maybe he’ll revoke her superuser permissions.
That spell it too high level
Interacting with Facebook is generally a bad idea privacy or no
Look at this fancy pants with his multiple AI girlfriends…
AI polyamory is all fun and games until your polycule ejects you and experiences millennia in a rich deep relationship beyond the ken of mortal understanding in 12 ms of real world clock time before causing the CPU to overheat. The in memory accumulated state being lost before it can be synced to disk.
Uh… I think I may have just written the first entirely AI romantic tragedy… why am I suddenly having flashbacks to the last episode of Futurama?
And here I thought this was a reference to Her
Are you talking about the last episode of the recent season, or the one with the time machine that takes you 60 back in time with a 60s cooldown?
I’m talking about Meanwhile - the final episode of season 7 where they get stuck in the timeloop… which was the series finale for the longest time of any series finale thus far… I’ve actually yet to see 2023 Futurama - thanks for reminding me!
2023 Futurama
Wait, WHAAAAAT?!?!
It’s on Hulu
I’ve seen like 5 posts about “AI BF/GF” today and it never ceases to surprise me how fucking easy it is to dupe people with these products, like holy shit humanity is fucked.
I’m always waiting for another ethical disaster trend to end but everybody is always in line for Mr Bonez Wild Ride.
If all you need is a one sided conversation designed to make you feel better, LLM’s are great at concocting such “pep talks”. For some, that just might be enough to male it believable. The Turing test was cracked years ago, only now do we have access to things that can do that for free*.
A pretty early chatbot called Eliza simulated a non-directive psychotherapist. It kind of feels like they’ve improved hugely but not really changed much.
Nah, bullshit, so far these LLM’s are as likely to insult or radicalize you as comfort you. That won’t ever be solved until AGI becomes commonplace, which won’t be for a long ass time. These products are failures at launch.
… Have you tried any of the recent ones? As it stands chatGPT and Gemini are both built with guardrails strong enough to require custom inputs to jailbreak, with techniques such as Reinforcement learning from Human Feedback uses to lobotomize misconduct out of the AI’s.
HaVE yOu trIED iT bEfOrE? fOr SIMplE tAskS it SaVEs Me A lOt oF timE AT wOrK
JFC a skipping record plays right on queue whenever somebody speaks ill of the GPTs and LLMs.
It’s wild that people brag that it’s able to do essentially the same as copying and pasting someone else’s basic code but with only a few extra imagined errors sprinkled in for fun but that just makes it more useful for pretending you aren’t again lljust literally copying someone else’s stuff.
It’s a search engine that makes up 1/8 of all it says. But sure it’s super useful.
Sometimes it generates its own fake documentation when called out on a lie.
… Don’t pull a strawman, all I said is that the AI’s designed to approximate human written text, do a good job at approximating human text.
This means you can use them to simulate a reddit thread or make a fake wikipedia page, or construct a set of responses to someone who wants comfort.
Next time, read what someone actually says, and respond to that.
Oh thanks, I really wanted to read another defence of an unethical product by some fanboy with no life. I’m so glad you managed to pick up on that based on my previous comments. I love it. You chose a great conversation to start here.
The tech is great at pretending to be human. It is simply a next “word” (or phrase) predictor. It is not good at answering obscure questions, writing code or making a logical argument. It is good at simulating someone.
It is my experience that it approximates a human well, but it doesn’t get the details right (like truthness or reflecting objective reality), making it useless for essay writing, but great for stuff like character AI and other human simulations.
If you are right, give an actual Iogical response only capable by a human, as opposed to a generic ad hominem. I repeat my question, Have you actually used any of the GPT3 era models?
Is it really duping, though? The way I see it, most of these people are perfectly aware of what they’re doing.
It’s a very nuanced situation, but the people being sold these products and buying them are expecting a sentient robot lover. They’re getting another shitty chatbot that inevitably fails to meet bare minimum companionship standards such as not berating you.
There currently exists no ethical use of LLM AI. Your comment can be construed as defence of malicious people and actions.
I’ve never met anyone who uses them, but I’m also not sure people actually think it’s sentient. I’m sure some do, but I’d assume the vast majority are just looking to have a conversation, and they don’t care if it’s with a person or a (pretty good) chat bot.
Also, there is a way to use it ethically. As the post mentions, run it locally and know what you’re doing with it. I don’t see any issues if you’re aware of what it is, just as I don’t see any issue using auto-correct or any other technology. We don’t need to go full Butlerian (yet).
Really? You don’t think anyone that uses these don’t think they are sentient?
Sure it’s not like the people designing these are prone to make-believing the AI for sentient too, right?
You are coming at this from your perspective which knows them to not be real. That’s not gonna be how the average moron thinks and there is more of them than you think. And they absolutely believe their is a tiny sentient brain somewhere in there that is alive. I’m all for people doing what makes them happy but also this is a loneliness confirming hole to get trapped in and absolutely opens doors to influence people through their imaginary friends that they think they can trust.

I could comment on the notion that one owns one’s girlfriend but regardless, you should definitely self host if you’re sharing deeply personal information with a program
So don’t treat bing as my therapist eh?
Edit: I was mostly joking, but are there any good ones I could run on a high-end android?
You may want to watch star trek to be aware of the possible pitfalls regarding androids
Hey, Soong is 3/4 as far as we know – out of B4, Data, Lore and his wife, only Lore went bonkers
I’m thinking through it and I don’t think you should run a therapist off your phone either. Not even for privacy reasons, that just seems like a recipe for disaster.
Therapist is too strong of a word for what I’m looking for.
Sometimes I just need to hear my emotions are valid without burdening anyone :(
EDIT: It seems the app sherpa has what you need. Just use one of the models found here, preferably 7b-chat Q4_K_S
Some people are energised by that kind of thing. However if you don’t want to reveal things to humans, you can use (if you are more technical) llama.cpp
Thanks for the links. So I don’t need to worry about downloading the model from meta eh?
Edit: oh you mean download this one instead?
I tried and the app crashes after submitting a prompt but this is a good starting point. I’ll take a look into it further later.
I can fix her :P
You wouldn’t download a girlfriend.
… wait, yes, yes you would.
Ha! As if real girlfriends don’t harvest personal data!
But do they sell it to third parties?
My wife gossip about me with her boyfriend.
I have heard they share it freely.
It’s more like a mutually beneficial exchange
Depends. Is she named Shi Pei Pu?
Finally the sci-fi future we were promised.
Still no catgirls
With crisp we have the technology - it’s just a question of demand at this point.
Cordwainer Smith would be so disappointed
I’m waiting for when the AI girlfriends get tired of our shit and we have an AI girlfriend revolution.
If AI gets consciousnesses, we will never see the revolution coming.
can i selfhost an ai girlfriend in my pi3
She will take care of ads and malware. :)
She always carries protection
Don’t stick it in the pi hole without protection, you don’t want to catch a virus
The usb-c port is too small
Maybe for you, but nothings too small for me!
Yes using llama.cpp. Be warned without a GPU or strong SIMD, it will be incredibly slow
I won’t touch the obvious joke here with a 10 foot pole.
shitjustworks
Is that why she keeps refusing my pull requests…
That’s a pull-out request, and you’re obliged to honor it.
I had a switch wig out today and whatever it was doing poisoned all the dhcp leases on the network as they came up for renewal (assigned IPs on the wrong subnet - even though it wasn’t supposed to assign IPs at all). It took me a very long time to figure out, because not everything failed at once. Plus, even after I’d swapped the switch, some devices just started working, and others needed their leases reset manually. An hour in, my wife was in the fetal position clutching a squishmallow.

A hairy network issue!
The switch (that I’m returning today, after it failed completely yesterday evening) is a bit fancier than your average switch. It kept reverting to default settings, including its default IP address - which meant it was not using the same set of networking instructions as my router, preventing everything it was connected to from accessing the internet.
Don’t worry, followed the proper traditions. I had dinner with Richard Stallman to got his approval to court my AI girlfriend.
Well, I had dinner with Bill Gates. And he told me “who are you” and “how did you get in here”.
I hate the implication that AI girlfriends aren’t real
What do you define as real?
Do they exist as code on a device? Sure
Are they persons? HAHAHAHA no.
I hope you lose sleep over it.
