  • We don’t even know if it’s currently being produced at greater numbers (as far as I’m aware). The only public info I’ve seen is that the data centers that haven’t been built will need all of the produced RAM based on handshake deals (not contracts). The RAM makers themselves are doubling down on the bubble by investing into the AI generators as well as increasing costs to insane levels in the process which surely reduces the amount of items sold.

  • That’s the thing that’s been an issue. Companies give their LLMs access to everything so certain key people have access to these documents. But normally access is key coded, and without hacking in a way that’s usually very visible to sysadmins, you just cannot get access at all. With LLMs, it wants to give you what you want. There is not currently a way to keep it from being a pushover in some way. It is in part weakness of human language, and part weakness of programming it to work for whomever is doing the asking prompts. There is likely not a way to use language to make it keep secrets through all the possible ways to ask it to give you things. Nothing akin to the hardened ability of good old fashioned password protection at least. And that’s true with potential designs that we’ve not even seen yet. Currently, it can’t keep track of where data originated after a short time. It’s just all data to the model. So you might not easily get access to a file directly, but you can access what it knows about a file because again, it’s all just data and words at that stage.

  • My advice is very unromantic.

    What you’re seeing is their best face. They’re not who you imagine they are. They could still be a good person and maybe a potential romantic interest, but it won’t be the person you’ve created for them. If you don’t just let them go, one day you might meet in person somehow and you’ll have this one-sided parasocial relationship that will either freak them out or they’ll never catch up with.

    I suggest not pursuing the friend request. If it’s a limerance scenario, you might be fine now. You might browse their profile occasionally. But what about when you’re feeling exceptionally low? What will you do? Add a couple of their friends and try to slowly ingratiate your way into their life? Message them with an admission of infatuation?

    Some of my fondest memories are of people I never pursued. And they’ll always stay that way.
