@fthegurus Nobody wants a war with Russia but it’s not like Russia will not wage war to us just because we don’t want to. It’s quite deluded to think that there won’t be a war just because we don’t want it.
@greatbong Modern LLM based systems with harnesses are much closer to neuro symbolic systems and should be evaluated as such, the low level mechanistic properties are not the relevant plane to analyze capabilities
@greatbong Describing a computer as “just transistors switching” does not explain the capabilities of the software it runs. Likewise, describing an LLM’s basic operation low level mechanism does not say much about its higher-level abilities.
@EllieHodgesxx You can’t be independent if you’re not strong enough to stand on your own feet and defend your country. What you are talking about is not independence it’s weakness, isolation, and subordination
@squeezpea@ChappyLaffyDuck@RobertJenrick These “commonwealth” countries including Canada or Australia don’t even give right to vote to out citizens why should we give right to vote to theirs specifically ?
@ModiCh0rHai@ChappyLaffyDuck@RobertJenrick Yes, they can, but Indian or Australian or Canadian or Nigerian person even in a temporary work visa can vote from day one. That’s unfair situation which must be fixed. Voting franchise should be equal for all non citizens
@klaptenning@ChappyLaffyDuck@RobertJenrick It’s the same with Australia or Canada, I don’t see why their citizens should have the right to vote in the UK where other foreigners can’t, when we can’t even vote in their countries.
@klaptenning@ChappyLaffyDuck@RobertJenrick You’re not getting it. I’m not against having the right to vote for foreigners, regardless of skin colour. I’m against it being based on commonwealth which is a relic of the empire. It should be give it to all foreigners or none. Or on a reciprocal basis.
